 RAM during Shutdown to defeat Cold Boot Attacks - Confirm in console output
 if encrypted mounts (root disk) is unmounted. (Because that is a
 pre-condition for wiping the LUKS full disk encryption key from RAM.)

Subject: [PATCH 0082/1790] ram wipe on shutdown: fix, added `need_shutdown`
 hook

Otherwise dracut does not run on shutdown.

Without `need_shutdown` file `/run/initramfs/.need_shutdown` does not get created.
And without that file `/usr/lib/dracut/dracut-initramfs-restore`,
which itself is started by `/lib/systemd/system/dracut-shutdown.service` does nothing.

 ## A toggle indicating if the kexec_load syscall has been disabled. This value defaults to 0 (false: kexec_load enabled), but can be set to 1 (true: kexec_load disabled). Once true, kexec can no longer be used, and the toggle cannot be set back to false. This allows a kexec image to be loaded before disabling the syscall, allowing a system to set up (and later use) an image without it being altered. Generally used together with the "modules_disabled" sysctl.

 ## A toggle indicating if the kexec_load syscall has been disabled. This value defaults to 0 (false: kexec_load enabled), but can be set to 1 (true: kexec_load disabled). Once true, kexec can no longer be used, and the toggle cannot be set back to false. This allows a kexec image to be loaded before disabling the syscall, allowing a system to set up (and later use) an image without it being altered.

-## Cold Boot Attack Defense
-
-Wiping RAM at shutdown to defeat cold boot attacks.
-
-Implemented as `dracut` module `cold-boot-attack-defense`.
-
-Requires `dracut`. In other words, RAM wipe is incompatible with systems
-using `initramfs-tools`. To switch to, install dracut:
-
-    sudo apt update
-    sudo apt install --no-install-recommends dracut
-
-`dracut` is intentionally not declared as a dependency of `security-misc` to
-avoid making all of `security-misc` dependent on `dracut` only for the sake of
-the wipe RAM at shutdown feature. Linux distribution such as Kicksecure are
-advised to (and Kicksecure is planning to) install `dracut` instead of
-`initramfs-tools` by default.
-
-Only tested on `systemd` enabled systems.
-
-User documentation:
-https://www.kicksecure.com/wiki/Cold_Boot_Attack_Defense
-
-Design documentation:
-https://www.kicksecure.com/wiki/Dev/RAM_Wipe
-
-Source code:
-
-* `/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/40cold-boot-attack-defense`
-* `/etc/default/grub.d/40_cold_boot_attack_defense.cfg`
-
 ## miscellaneous
 
 * hardened malloc compatibility for haveged workaround

+
+## Why is this in a dedicated config file?
+## Package ram-wipe requires kexec. However, ram-wipe could not ship a config
+## file /etc/sysctl.d/40_ram-wipe.conf which sets 'kernel.kexec_load_disabled=0'.
+## This is because once systemd-sysctl.service has set 'kernel.kexec_load_disabled=1'
+## it cannot be undone without reboot. This is a upstream Linux security feature.

Subject: [PATCH 0474/1790] Fix double mount issue for /var/log and /var/tmp

Mounting var with bind and mounting a subdirectory causes /var/tmp and /var/log bind mounted twice each. can be checked with lsblk. When we bind mount var only after having mounted the subdirectories, everything is mounted only one.

+#### umask
+
+Default `umask` is set to `027` for files created by non-root users
+such as for example user `user`.
+
+This is doing using pam module `pam_mkhomedir.so umask=027`.
+
+This means, files created by non-root users cannot be read by other
+non-root users by default. While Permission Lockdown already protects
+the `/home` folder, this protects other folders such as `/tmp`.
+
+`group` read permissions are not removed.
+This is unnecessary due to Debian's use of User Private Groups (UPGs).
+See also: https://wiki.debian.org/UserPrivateGroups
+
+Default `umask` is unchanged for root, because then configuration files
+created in `/etc` by the system administrator would be unreadable by
+"others" and break applications. Examples include `/etc/firefox-esr` and
+`/etc/thunderbird`.
+
+See:
+
+* `/usr/share/pam-configs/umask-security-misc`

 A systemd service dynamically sets the kernel parameter ```modules_disabled``` to 1, preventing new modules from being loaded. Since this isn't configured directly within systemctl, it does not break the loading of legitimate and necessary modules for the user, like drivers etc., given they are plugged in on startup.

-https://github.com/ioerror/torbirdy/pull/11
+Before sending pull requests to harden arbitrary applications, please note the scope of security-misc is limited to default installed applications in Kicksecure, Whonix. This includes:
+
+* Thunderbird, VLC Media Player, KeepassXC
+* Debian Specific System Components (APT, DPKG)
+* System Services (NetworkManager IPv6 privacy options, MAC address randomization)
+* Actually used development utilities such as `git`.
+
+It will not be possible to review and merge "1500" settings profiles for arbitrary applications outside of this context.

+License: AGPL-3+
+
+License: AGPL-3+
+                    GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+                       Version 3, 19 November 2007
+ .
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+ .
+                            Preamble
+ .
+ The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+ software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
+ cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
+ .
+ The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+ to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+ our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
+ share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+ software for all its users.
+ .
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+ price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+ have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+ them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+ want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+ free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+ .
+  Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
+ with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
+ you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
+ and/or modify the software.
+ .
+ A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
+ improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
+ receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
+ incorporate.  Many developers of free software are heartened and
+ encouraged by the resulting cooperation.  However, in the case of
+ software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
+ The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
+ letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
+ source code to the public.
+ .
+ The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
+ ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
+ to the community.  It requires the operator of a network server to
+ provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
+ users of that server.  Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
+ a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
+ code of the modified version.
+ .
+ An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
+ published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals.  This is
+ a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
+ released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
+ this license.
+ .
+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+ modification follow.
+ .
+                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+ .
+  0. Definitions.
+ .
+  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
+ .
+  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+ works, such as semiconductor masks.
+ .
+ "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+ License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+ "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+ .
+ To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+ in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+ exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+ earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+ .
+ A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+ on the Program.
+ .
+ To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+ permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+ infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+ computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+ distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+ public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+ .
+ To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+ parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+ a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+ .
+ An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+ to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+ feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+ tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+ extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+ work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+ the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+ menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+ .
+ 1. Source Code.
+ .
+ The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+ for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+ form of a work.
+ .
+ A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+ standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+ interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+ is widely used among developers working in that language.
+ .
+ The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+ than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+ packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+ Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+ Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+ implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+ "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+ (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+ (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+ produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+ .
+ The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+ the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+ work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+ control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+ System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+ programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+ which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+ includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+ the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+ linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+ such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+ subprograms and other parts of the work.
+ .
+ The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+ can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+ Source.
+ .
+ The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+ same work.
+ .
+  2. Basic Permissions.
+ .
+  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+ copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+ conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+ permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+ covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+ content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+ rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+ .
+ You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+ convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+ in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+ of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+ with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+ the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+ not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+ for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+ and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+ your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+ .
+ Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+ the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+ makes it unnecessary.
+ .
+  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+ .
+ No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+ measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+ 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+ similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+ measures.
+ .
+ When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+ circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+ is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+ the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+ modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+ users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+ technological measures.
+ .
+  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+ .
+ You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+ receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+ appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+ keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+ non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+ keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+ recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+ .
+ You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+ and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+ .
+  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+ .
+ You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+ produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+ terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+ .
+    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+ .
+    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under section
+    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+    "keep intact all notices".
+ .
+    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+ .
+    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+ .
+ A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+ works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+ and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+ in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+ "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+ used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+ beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+ in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+ parts of the aggregate.
+ .
+  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+ .
+ You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+ of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+ machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+ in one of these ways:
+ .
+    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+ .
+    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+ .
+    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+ .
+    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+ .
+    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+    charge under subsection 6d.
+ .
+ A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+ from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+ included in conveying the object code work.
+ .
+ A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+ tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+ or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+ into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+ doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+  product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+ typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+ of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+ actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+ is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+ commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+ the only significant mode of use of the product.
+ .
+ "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+ procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+ and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+ a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+ suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+ code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+ modification has been made.

- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
- GNU General Public License for more details.
+ If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+ specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+ part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+ User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+ fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+ Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+ by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+ if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+ modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+ been installed in ROM).
  .
- You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
- along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+ The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+ requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+ for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+ the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+ network may be denied when the modification itself materially and

+ documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+ source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+ unpacking, reading or copying.
  .
- ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE per GNU GPL version 3 section 7
+  7. Additional Terms.
  .
- 1. Replacement of Section 15.  Section 15 of the GPL shall be deleted in its
- entirety and replaced with the following:
+ "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+ License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+ Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+ be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+ that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+ apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+ under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+ this License without regard to the additional permissions.
  .
- 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+ When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+ remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+ it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+ removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+ additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+ for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
  .
- THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
- INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
- PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE AND MERCHANTABILITY.  THE PROGRAM IS BEING
- DELIVERED OR MADE AVAILABLE 'AS IS', 'WITH ALL FAULTS' AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OR
- REPRESENTATION.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
- PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+ add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+ that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+ .
+    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+ .
+    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+ .
+    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+ .
+    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+    authors of the material; or
+ .
+    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+ .
+    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+    those licensors and authors.
+ .
+ All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+ restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+ received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+ governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+ restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+ a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+ License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+ of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+ not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+ .
+ If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+ must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+ additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+ where to find the applicable terms.
+ .
+ Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+ form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+ the above requirements apply either way.
+ .
+  8. Termination.
+ .
+ You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+ provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+ modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+ this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+ paragraph of section 11).
+ .
+ However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+ license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+ provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+ finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+ holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+ prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+ .
+ Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+ reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+ violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+ received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+ copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+ your receipt of the notice.
+ .
+ Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+ licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+ this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+ reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+ material under section 10.
+ .
+  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+ .
+ You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+ run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+ occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+ to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+ nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+ modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+ not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+ covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+ .
+  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+ .
+ Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+ receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+ propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+ for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+ .
+ An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+ organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+ organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+ work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+ transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+ licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+ give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+ Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+ the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+ .
+  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+ rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+ not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+ rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+ (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+ any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+ sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+ .
+  11. Patents.
+ .
+ A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+ License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+ work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+ .
+ A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+ owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+ hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+ by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+ but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+ consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+ purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+ patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+ this License.
+ .
+ Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+ patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+ make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+ propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+ .
+ In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+ agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+ (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+ sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+ party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+ patent against the party.
+ .
+ If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+ and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+ to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+ publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+ then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+ available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+ patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+ consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+ license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+ actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+ covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+ in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+ country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+ .
+ If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+ arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+ covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+ receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+ or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+ you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+ work and works based on it.
+ .
+ A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+ the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+ conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+ specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+ work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+ in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+ to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+ the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+ parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+ patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+ conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+ for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+ contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+ or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+ .
+ Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+ any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+ otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+ .
+  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+ .
+ If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+ otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+ excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+ covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+ License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+ not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+ to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+ the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+ License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+ .
+  13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
+ .
+ Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
+ Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
+ interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
+ supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
+ Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
+ from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
+ means of facilitating copying of software.  This Corresponding Source
+ shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
+ of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
+ following paragraph.
+ .
+ Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+ permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+ under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
+ combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+ License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+ but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
+ 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+ .
+ 14. Revised Versions of this License.
+ .
+ The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+ the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions
+ will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+ address new problems or concerns.
+ .
+ Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+ Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
+ Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+ option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+ version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+ Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+ GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+ by the Free Software Foundation.
+ .
+ If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+ versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+ public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+ to choose that version for the Program.
+ .
+ Later license versions may give you additional or different
+ permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+ author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+ later version.
+ .
+  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+ .
+ THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+ APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+ HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+ OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+ THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+ PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+ IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
  ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
  .
- 2. Replacement of Section 16.  Section 16 of the GPL shall be deleted in its
- entirety and replaced with the following:
- .
- 16. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
- .
- UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER OR ITS AFFILIATES, OR ANY
- OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
- LIABLE TO YOU, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, FOR ANY
- DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
- INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN
- CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM OR OTHER DEALINGS WITH
- THE PROGRAM(INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED
- INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
- PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), WHETHER OR NOT ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER
- OR SUCH OTHER PARTY RECEIVES NOTICE OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH
- DAMAGES COULD HAVE BEEN FORESEEN.
- .
- 3. LEGAL NOTICES; NO TRADEMARK LICENSE; ORIGIN.  You must reproduce faithfully
- all trademark, copyright and other proprietary and legal notices on any copies
- of the Program or any other required author attributions.  This license does not
- grant you rights to use any copyright holder or any other party's name, logo, or
- trademarks.  Neither the name of the copyright holder or its affiliates, or any
- other party who modifies and/or conveys the Program may be used to endorse or
- promote products derived from this software without specific prior written
- permission.  The origin of the Program must not be misrepresented; you must not
- claim that you wrote the original Program.  Altered source versions must be
- plainly marked as such, and must not be misrepresented as being the original
- Program.
- .
- 4. INDEMNIFICATION.  IF YOU CONVEY A COVERED WORK AND AGREE WITH ANY RECIPIENT
- OF THAT COVERED WORK THAT YOU WILL ASSUME ANY LIABILITY FOR THAT COVERED WORK,
- YOU HEREBY AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS THE OTHER LICENSORS AND
- AUTHORS OF THAT COVERED WORK FOR ANY DAMAGES, DEMANDS, CLAIMS, LOSSES, CAUSES OF
- ACTION, LAWSUITS, JUDGMENTS EXPENSES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION REASONABLE
- ATTORNEYS' FEES AND EXPENSES) OR ANY OTHER LIABILITY ARISING FROM, RELATED TO OR
- IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ASSUMPTIONS OF LIABILITY.
+  16. Limitation of Liability.
+ .
+ IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+ WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+ THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+ GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+ USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+ DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+ PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+ EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+ SUCH DAMAGES.
+ .
+  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+ .
+ If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+ above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+ reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+ an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+ Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+ copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+ .
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+ .
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+ .
+ If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+ possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+ free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+ .
+ To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+ to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+ state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+ the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+ .
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+ .
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+ .
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
+ .
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
+    along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+ .
+ Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+ .
+ If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
+ network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
+ get its source.  For example, if your program is a web application, its
+ interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
+ of the code.  There are many ways you could offer source, and different
+ solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
+ specific requirements.
+ .
+ You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+ if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+ For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see
+ <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

-                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
-                       Version 3, 29 June 2007
-
- Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
-
-                            Preamble
-
-  The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
-software and other kinds of works.
-
-  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
-to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
-the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
-share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
-software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
-GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
-any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to
-your programs, too.
-
-  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
-price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
-have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
-them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
-want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
-free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
-
-  To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
-these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have
-certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
-you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
-
-  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
-gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
-freedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive
-or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they
-know their rights.
-
-  Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
-(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
-giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
-
-  For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
-that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and
-authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
-changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
-authors of previous versions.
-
-  Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
-modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
-can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
-protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic
-pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
-use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we
-have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
-products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
-stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
-of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
-
-  Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
-States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
-software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
-avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
-make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that
-patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
-
-  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
-modification follow.
-
-                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
-  0. Definitions.
-
-  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
-
-  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
-works, such as semiconductor masks.
-
-  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
-License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
-"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
-
-  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
-in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
-exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
-earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
-
-  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
-on the Program.
-
-  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
-permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
-infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
-computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
-distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
-public, and in some countries other activities as well.
-
-  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
-parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
-a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
-
-  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
-to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
-feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
-tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
-extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
-work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
-the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
-menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
-
-  1. Source Code.
-
-  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
-for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
-form of a work.
-
-  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
-standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
-interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
-is widely used among developers working in that language.
-
-  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
-than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
-packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
-Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
-Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
-implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
-"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
-(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
-(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
-produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
-
-  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
-the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
-work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
-control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
-System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
-programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
-which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
-includes interface definition files associated with source files for
-the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
-linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
-such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
-subprograms and other parts of the work.
-
-  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
-can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
-Source.
-
-  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
-same work.
-
-  2. Basic Permissions.
-
-  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
-copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
-conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
-permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
-covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
-content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
-rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
-
-  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
-convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
-in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
-of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
-with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
-the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
-not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
-for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
-and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
-your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
-
-  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
-the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
-makes it unnecessary.
-
-  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
-
-  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
-measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
-11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
-similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
-measures.
-
-  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
-circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
-is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
-the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
-modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
-users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
-technological measures.
-
-  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
-
-  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
-receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
-appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
-keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
-non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
-keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
-recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
-
-  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
-and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
-
-  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
-
-  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
-produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
-terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
-
-    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
-    it, and giving a relevant date.
-
-    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
-    released under this License and any conditions added under section
-    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
-    "keep intact all notices".
-
-    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
-    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
-    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
-    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
-    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
-    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
-    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
-
-    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
-    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
-    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
-    work need not make them do so.
-
-  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
-works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
-and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
-in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
-"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
-used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
-beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
-in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
-parts of the aggregate.
-
-  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
-
-  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
-of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
-machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
-in one of these ways:
-
-    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
-    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
-    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
-    customarily used for software interchange.
-
-    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
-    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
-    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
-    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
-    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
-    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
-    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
-    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
-    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
-    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
-    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
-
-    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
-    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
-    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
-    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
-    with subsection 6b.
-
-    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
-    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
-    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
-    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
-    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
-    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
-    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
-    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
-    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
-    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
-    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
-    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
-
-    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
-    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
-    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
-    charge under subsection 6d.
-
-  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
-from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
-included in conveying the object code work.
-
-  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
-tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
-or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
-into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
-doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
-product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
-typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
-of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
-actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
-is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
-commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
-the only significant mode of use of the product.
-
-  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
-procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
-and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
-a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
-suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
-code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
-modification has been made.
-
-  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
-specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
-part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
-User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
-fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
-Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
-by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
-if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
-modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
-been installed in ROM).
-
-  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
-requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
-for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
-the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
-network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
-adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
-protocols for communication across the network.
-
-  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
-in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
-documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
-source code form), and must require no special password or key for
-unpacking, reading or copying.
-
-  7. Additional Terms.
-
-  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
-License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
-Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
-be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
-that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
-apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
-under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
-this License without regard to the additional permissions.
-
-  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
-remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
-it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
-removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
-additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
-for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
-
-  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
-add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
-that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
-
-    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
-    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
-
-    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
-    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
-    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
-
-    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
-    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
-    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
-
-    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
-    authors of the material; or
-
-    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
-    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
-
-    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
-    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
-    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
-    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
-    those licensors and authors.
-
-  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
-restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
-received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
-governed by this License along with a term that is a further
-restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
-a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
-License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
-of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
-not survive such relicensing or conveying.
-
-  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
-must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
-additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
-where to find the applicable terms.
-
-  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
-form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
-the above requirements apply either way.
-
-  8. Termination.
-
-  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
-provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
-modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
-this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
-paragraph of section 11).
-
-  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
-license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
-provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
-finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
-holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
-prior to 60 days after the cessation.
-
-  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
-reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
-violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
-received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
-copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
-your receipt of the notice.
-
-  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
-licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
-this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
-reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
-material under section 10.
-
-  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
-
-  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
-run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
-occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
-to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
-nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
-modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
-not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
-covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
-
-  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
-
-  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
-receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
-propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
-for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
-
-  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
-organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
-organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
-work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
-transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
-licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
-give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
-Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
-the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
-
-  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
-rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
-not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
-rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
-(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
-any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
-sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
-
-  11. Patents.
-
-  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
-License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
-work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
-
-  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
-owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
-hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
-by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
-but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
-consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
-purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
-patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
-this License.
-
-  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
-patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
-make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
-propagate the contents of its contributor version.
-
-  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
-agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
-(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
-sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
-party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
-patent against the party.
-
-  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
-and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
-to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
-publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
-then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
-available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
-patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
-consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
-license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
-actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
-covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
-in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
-country that you have reason to believe are valid.
-
-  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
-arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
-covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
-receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
-or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
-you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
-work and works based on it.
-
-  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
-the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
-conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
-specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
-work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
-in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
-to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
-the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
-parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
-patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
-conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
-for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
-contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
-or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
-
-  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
-any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
-otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
-
-  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
-
-  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
-excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
-covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
-not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
-to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
-the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
-License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
-
-  13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
-
-  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
-permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
-under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
-combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
-License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
-but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
-section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
-combination as such.
-
-  14. Revised Versions of this License.
-
-  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
-the GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
-be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
-address new problems or concerns.
-
-  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
-Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
-Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
-option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
-version or of any later version published by the Free Software
-Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
-GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
-by the Free Software Foundation.
-
-  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
-versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
-public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
-to choose that version for the Program.
-
-  Later license versions may give you additional or different
-permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
-author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
-later version.
-
-  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
-
-  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
-APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
-HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
-OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
-THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
-PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
-IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
-ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
-
-  16. Limitation of Liability.
-
-  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
-WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
-THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
-GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
-USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
-DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
-PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
-EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
-SUCH DAMAGES.
-
-  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
-
-  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
-above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
-reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
-an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
-Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
-copy of the Program in return for a fee.
-
-                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
-            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
-
-  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
-possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
-free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
-
-  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
-to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
-state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
-the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
-
-    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
-    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
-
-    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
-    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
-    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
-    (at your option) any later version.
-
-    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
-    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
-    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
-    GNU General Public License for more details.
-
-    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
-    along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
-
-Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
-
-  If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
-notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
-
-    <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
-    This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
-    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
-    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
-
-The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
-parts of the General Public License.  Of course, your program's commands
-might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
-
-  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
-if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
-For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
-<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
-
-  The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
-into proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you
-may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
-the library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
-Public License instead of this License.  But first, please read
-<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.

+
+License: AGPL-3+
+                    GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+                       Version 3, 19 November 2007
+ .
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+ .
+                            Preamble
+ .
+ The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+ software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
+ cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
+ .
+ The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+ to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+ our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
+ share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+ software for all its users.
+ .
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+ price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+ have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+ them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+ want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+ free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+ .
+  Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
+ with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
+ you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
+ and/or modify the software.
+ .
+ A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
+ improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
+ receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
+ incorporate.  Many developers of free software are heartened and
+ encouraged by the resulting cooperation.  However, in the case of
+ software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
+ The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
+ letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
+ source code to the public.
+ .
+ The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
+ ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
+ to the community.  It requires the operator of a network server to
+ provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
+ users of that server.  Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
+ a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
+ code of the modified version.
+ .
+ An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
+ published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals.  This is
+ a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
+ released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
+ this license.
+ .
+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+ modification follow.
+ .
+                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+ .
+  0. Definitions.
+ .
+  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
+ .
+  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+ works, such as semiconductor masks.
+ .
+ "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+ License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+ "recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+ .
+ To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+ in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+ exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+ earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+ .
+ A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+ on the Program.
+ .
+ To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+ permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+ infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+ computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+ distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+ public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+ .
+ To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+ parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+ a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+ .
+ An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+ to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+ feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+ tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+ extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+ work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+ the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+ menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+ .
+ 1. Source Code.
+ .
+ The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+ for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+ form of a work.
+ .
+ A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+ standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+ interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+ is widely used among developers working in that language.
+ .
+ The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+ than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+ packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+ Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+ Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+ implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+ "Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+ (kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+ (if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+ produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+ .
+ The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+ the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+ work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+ control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+ System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+ programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+ which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+ includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+ the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+ linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+ such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+ subprograms and other parts of the work.
+ .
+ The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+ can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+ Source.
+ .
+ The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+ same work.
+ .
+  2. Basic Permissions.
+ .
+  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+ copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+ conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+ permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+ covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+ content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+ rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+ .
+ You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+ convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+ in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+ of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+ with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+ the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+ not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+ for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+ and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+ your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+ .
+ Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+ the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+ makes it unnecessary.
+ .
+  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+ .
+ No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+ measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+ 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+ similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+ measures.
+ .
+ When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+ circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+ is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+ the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+ modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+ users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+ technological measures.
+ .
+  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+ .
+ You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+ receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+ appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+ keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+ non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+ keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+ recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+ .
+ You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+ and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+ .
+  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+ .
+ You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+ produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+ terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+ .
+    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+ .
+    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under section
+    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+    "keep intact all notices".
+ .
+    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+ .
+    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+ .
+ A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+ works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+ and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+ in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+ "aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+ used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+ beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+ in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+ parts of the aggregate.
+ .
+  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+ .
+ You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+ of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+ machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+ in one of these ways:
+ .
+    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+ .
+    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+ .
+    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+ .
+    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+ .
+    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+    charge under subsection 6d.
+ .
+ A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+ from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+ included in conveying the object code work.
+ .
+ A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+ tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+ or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+ into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+ doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+  product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+ typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+ of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+ actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+ is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+ commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+ the only significant mode of use of the product.
+ .
+ "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+ procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+ and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+ a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+ suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+ code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+ modification has been made.

- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
- GNU General Public License for more details.
+ If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+ specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+ part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+ User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+ fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+ Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+ by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+ if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+ modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+ been installed in ROM).
  .
- You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
- along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+ The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+ requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+ for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+ the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+ network may be denied when the modification itself materially and

  .
- ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE per GNU GPL version 3 section 7
+  7. Additional Terms.
  .
- 1. Replacement of Section 15.  Section 15 of the GPL shall be deleted in its
- entirety and replaced with the following:
+ "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+ License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+ Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+ be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+ that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+ apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+ under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+ this License without regard to the additional permissions.
  .
- 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+ When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+ remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+ it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+ removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+ additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+ for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
  .
- THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
- INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
- PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE AND MERCHANTABILITY.  THE PROGRAM IS BEING
- DELIVERED OR MADE AVAILABLE 'AS IS', 'WITH ALL FAULTS' AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OR
- REPRESENTATION.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
- PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+ add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+ that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+ .
+    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+ .
+    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+ .
+    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+ .
+    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+    authors of the material; or
+ .
+    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+ .
+    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+    those licensors and authors.
+ .
+ All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+ restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+ received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+ governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+ restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+ a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+ License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+ of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+ not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+ .
+ If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+ must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+ additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+ where to find the applicable terms.
+ .
+ Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+ form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+ the above requirements apply either way.
+ .
+  8. Termination.
+ .
+ You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+ provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+ modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+ this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+ paragraph of section 11).
+ .
+ However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+ license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+ provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+ finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+ holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+ prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+ .
+ Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+ reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+ violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+ received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+ copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+ your receipt of the notice.
+ .
+ Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+ licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+ this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+ reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+ material under section 10.
+ .
+  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+ .
+ You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+ run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+ occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+ to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+ nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+ modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+ not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+ covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+ .
+  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+ .
+ Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+ receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+ propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+ for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+ .
+ An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+ organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+ organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+ work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+ transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+ licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+ give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+ Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+ the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+ .
+  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+ rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+ not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+ rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+ (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+ any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+ sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+ .
+  11. Patents.
+ .
+ A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+ License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+ work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+ .
+ A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+ owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+ hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+ by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+ but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+ consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+ purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+ patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+ this License.
+ .
+ Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+ patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+ make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+ propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+ .
+ In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+ agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+ (such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+ sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+ party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+ patent against the party.
+ .
+ If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+ and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+ to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+ publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+ then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+ available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+ patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+ consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+ license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+ actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+ covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+ in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+ country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+ .
+ If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+ arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+ covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+ receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+ or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+ you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+ work and works based on it.
+ .
+ A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+ the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+ conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+ specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+ work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+ in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+ to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+ the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+ parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+ patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+ conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+ for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+ contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+ or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+ .
+ Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+ any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+ otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+ .
+  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+ .
+ If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+ otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+ excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+ covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+ License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+ not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+ to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+ the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+ License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+ .
+  13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
+ .
+ Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
+ Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
+ interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
+ supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
+ Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
+ from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
+ means of facilitating copying of software.  This Corresponding Source
+ shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
+ of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
+ following paragraph.
+ .
+ Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+ permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+ under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
+ combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+ License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+ but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
+ 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+ .
+ 14. Revised Versions of this License.
+ .
+ The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+ the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions
+ will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+ address new problems or concerns.
+ .
+ Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+ Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
+ Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+ option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+ version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+ Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+ GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+ by the Free Software Foundation.
+ .
+ If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+ versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+ public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+ to choose that version for the Program.
+ .
+ Later license versions may give you additional or different
+ permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+ author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+ later version.
+ .
+  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+ .
+ THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+ APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+ HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+ OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+ THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+ PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+ IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
  ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
  .
- 2. Replacement of Section 16.  Section 16 of the GPL shall be deleted in its
- entirety and replaced with the following:
- .
- 16. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
- .
- UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER OR ITS AFFILIATES, OR ANY
- OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
- LIABLE TO YOU, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, FOR ANY
- DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
- INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN
- CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM OR OTHER DEALINGS WITH
- THE PROGRAM(INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED
- INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
- PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), WHETHER OR NOT ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER
- OR SUCH OTHER PARTY RECEIVES NOTICE OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH
- DAMAGES COULD HAVE BEEN FORESEEN.
- .
- 3. LEGAL NOTICES; NO TRADEMARK LICENSE; ORIGIN.  You must reproduce faithfully
- all trademark, copyright and other proprietary and legal notices on any copies
- of the Program or any other required author attributions.  This license does not
- grant you rights to use any copyright holder or any other party's name, logo, or
- trademarks.  Neither the name of the copyright holder or its affiliates, or any
- other party who modifies and/or conveys the Program may be used to endorse or
- promote products derived from this software without specific prior written
- permission.  The origin of the Program must not be misrepresented; you must not
- claim that you wrote the original Program.  Altered source versions must be
- plainly marked as such, and must not be misrepresented as being the original
- Program.
- .
- 4. INDEMNIFICATION.  IF YOU CONVEY A COVERED WORK AND AGREE WITH ANY RECIPIENT
- OF THAT COVERED WORK THAT YOU WILL ASSUME ANY LIABILITY FOR THAT COVERED WORK,
- YOU HEREBY AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS THE OTHER LICENSORS AND
- AUTHORS OF THAT COVERED WORK FOR ANY DAMAGES, DEMANDS, CLAIMS, LOSSES, CAUSES OF
- ACTION, LAWSUITS, JUDGMENTS EXPENSES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION REASONABLE
- ATTORNEYS' FEES AND EXPENSES) OR ANY OTHER LIABILITY ARISING FROM, RELATED TO OR
- IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ASSUMPTIONS OF LIABILITY.
+  16. Limitation of Liability.
+ .
+ IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+ WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+ THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+ GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+ USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+ DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+ PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+ EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+ SUCH DAMAGES.
+ .
+  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+ .
+ If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+ above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+ reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+ an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+ Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+ copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+ .
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+ .
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+ .
+ If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+ possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+ free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+ .
+ To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+ to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+ state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+ the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+ .
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+ .
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+ .
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
+ .
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
+    along with this program.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+ .
+ Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+ .
+ If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
+ network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
+ get its source.  For example, if your program is a web application, its
+ interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
+ of the code.  There are many ways you could offer source, and different
+ solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
+ specific requirements.
+ .
+ You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+ if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+ For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see
+ <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

 It will not be possible to review and merge "1500" settings profiles for arbitrary applications outside of this context.
 
+The main objective of security-misc is to harden Kicksecure and its derivatives, such as Whonix, by implementing robust security settings. It's designed to be compatible with Debian, reflecting a commitment to clean implementation and sound design principles. However, it's important to note that security-misc is a component of Kicksecure, not a substitute for it. The intention isn't to recreate Kicksecure within security-misc. Instead, specific security enhancements, like for example recommending a curated list of security-focused default packages (e.g., `libpam-tmpdir`), should be integrated directly into those appropriate areas of Kicksecure (e.g. `kicksecure-meta-packages`).

+"Maintainability is a key priority [1]. Before modifying settings in the downstream security-misc, it's essential to first engage with upstream developers to propose these changes as defaults. This step should only be bypassed if there's a clear, prior indication from upstream that such changes won't be accepted. Additionally, before implementing any workarounds, consulting with upstream is necessary to future unmaintainable complexity.
+
+If debugging features are disabled, pull requests won't be merged until there is a corresponding pull request for the debug-misc package to re-enable these. This is to avoid configuring the system into a corner where it can be no longer debugged.

-## Network & Bluetooth hardening
-
--   Bluetooth is 'enabled' for the system. Unlike the usual default behavior, we
-    start bluetooth turned off on system start and it stays that way unless the
-    user explicitly chooses to turn bluetooth on. The user is left with the
-    freedom to easily switch bluetooth on and off the usual way with his own
-    discretion. We set significantly more private defaults for bluetooth
-    connections by enforcing private addresses and strict timeout settings for
-    discoverability and visibility. That being said, the most secure and private
-    bluetooth connection might inherently come with risks by its nature and may
-    be prone to exploits, as it has a history of having new security
-    vulnurabilities often. So users are recommended to choose not to use
-    bluetooth when given the option.
+## Bluetooth Hardening
 
-See:
+### Bluetooth Status: Enabled but Defaulted to Off
+
+- **Default Behavior**: Although Bluetooth capability is 'enabled' in the kernel, security-misc deviates from the usual behavior by starting with Bluetooth turned off at system start. This setting remains until the user explicitly opts to activate Bluetooth.
+
+- **User Control**: Users have the freedom to easily switch Bluetooth on and off in the usual way, exercising their own discretion. This can be done via the Bluetooth toggle through the usual way, that is either through GUI settings application or command line commands.
+
+- **Enhanced Privacy Settings**: We enforce more private defaults for Bluetooth connections. This includes the use of private addresses and strict timeout settings for discoverability and visibility.
+
+- **Security Considerations**: Despite these measures, it's important to note that Bluetooth technology, by its nature, may still be prone to exploits due to its history of security vulnerabilities. Thus, we recommend users to opt-out of using Bluetooth when possible.
+
+### Configuration Details
+
+- See configuration: `/etc/bluetooth/30_security-misc.conf`
+- For more information and discussion: [GitHub Pull Request](https://github.com/Kicksecure/security-misc/pull/145)
+
+### Understanding Bluetooth Terms
+
+- **Disabling Bluetooth**: This means the absence of the Bluetooth kernel module. When disabled, Bluetooth is non-existent in the system - it cannot be seen, set, configured, or interacted with in any way.
+
+- **Turning Bluetooth On/Off**: This refers to a software toggle. Normally, on Debian systems, Bluetooth is 'on' when the system boots up. It actively searches for known devices to auto-connect and may be discoverable or visible under certain conditions. Our default ensures that Bluetooth is off on startup. However, it remains 'enabled' in the kernel, meaning the kernel can use the Bluetooth protocol and has the necessary modules.
+
+### Quick Toggle Guide
+
+- **Turning Bluetooth On**: Simply click the Bluetooth button in the settings application or on the tray, and switch the toggle. It's a straightforward action that can be completed in less than a second.
 
--   `/etc/bluetooth/30_security-misc.conf`
--   https://github.com/Kicksecure/security-misc/pull/145
+- **Turning Bluetooth Off**: Follow the same procedure as turning it on but switch the toggle to the off position.

Subject: [PATCH 0645/1790] Refactor permission-hardener

- Organize comments from default configuration;
- Apply and undo changes from a single file controlled by parameters;
- Arrays should be evaluated as arrays and not normal variables;
- Quote variables;
- Brackets around variables;
- Standardize test cases to "test" command;
- Test against empty or non-empty variables with "-z" and "-n";
- Show a usage message when necessary;
- Require root to run the script with informative message;
- Permit the user to see the help message without running as root;
- Do not create root directories without passing root check;
- Use long options for "set" command;

 `permission-hardener` removes SUID / SGID bits from non-essential binaries as

 installation and upgrade time.
 
 There is also an optional systemd unit which does the same at boot time that

+can be enabled by running `systemctl enable permission-hardener.service` as
 root. The hardening at boot time is not the default because this slows down
 the boot too much.

 %description
-The following settings are changed:
-
-deactivates previews in Dolphin;
-deactivates previews in Nautilus;
-deactivates thumbnails in Thunar;
-deactivates TCP timestamps;
-deactivates Netfilter's connection tracking helper;
-
-TCP time stamps (RFC 1323) allow for tracking clock
-information with millisecond resolution. This may or may not allow an
-attacker to learn information about the system clock at such
-a resolution, depending on various issues such as network lag.
-This information is available to anyone who monitors the network
-somewhere between the attacked system and the destination server.
-It may allow an attacker to find out how long a given
-system has been running, and to distinguish several
-systems running behind NAT and using the same IP address. It might
-also allow one to look for clocks that match an expected value to find the
-public IP used by a user.
-
-Hence, this package disables this feature by shipping the
-/etc/sysctl.d/tcp_timestamps.conf configuration file.
-
-Note that TCP time stamps normally have some usefulness. They are
-needed for:
-
-* the TCP protection against wrapped sequence numbers; however, to
-  trigger a wrap, one needs to send roughly 2^32 packets in one
-  minute:  as said in RFC 1700, "The current recommended default
-  time to live (TTL) for the Internet Protocol (IP) [45,105] is 64".
-  So, this probably won't be a practical problem in the context
-  of Anonymity Distributions.
-
-* "Round-Trip Time Measurement", which is only useful when the user
-  manages to saturate their connection. When using Anonymity Distributions,
-  probably the limiting factor for transmission speed is rarely the capacity
-  of the user connection.
-
-Netfilter's connection tracking helper module increases kernel attack
-surface by enabling superfluous functionality such as IRC parsing in
-the kernel. (!)
-
-Hence, this package disables this feature by shipping the
-/etc/sysctl.d/nf_conntrack_helper.conf configuration file.

-`/etc/modprobe.d/30_security-misc_disable.conf` configuration files respectively.
-
--   Deactivates Netfilter's connection tracking helper - this module increases
-    kernel attack surface by enabling superfluous functionality such as IRC
-    parsing in the kernel. Hence, this feature is disabled.
-
--   Thunderbolt and numerous FireWire kernel modules are also disabled as they
-    are often vulnerable to DMA attacks.
-
--   The MSR kernel module is disabled to prevent CPU MSRs from being abused to
-    write to arbitrary memory.
-
--   Uncommon network protocols are blacklisted. This includes:
-
-    -   DCCP - Datagram Congestion Control Protocol
-    -   SCTP - Stream Control Transmission Protocol
-    -   RDS - Reliable Datagram Sockets
-    -   TIPC - Transparent Inter-process Communication

--   Disables a large array of uncommon file systems and network file systems
-    that reduces the attack surface especially against legacy approaches.
-
--   The vivid kernel module is only required for testing and has been the cause
-    of multiple vulnerabilities so it is disabled.
-
--   Provides some disabling of the interface between the [Intel Management
-    Engine (ME)](https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/driver-api/mei/mei.html)
-    and the OS.
-
--   Disables several kernel modules responsible for GPS such as GNSS (Global
-    Navigation Satellite System).
-
--   Incorporates much of
-    [Ubuntu's](https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kmod/tree/debian/modprobe.d?h=ubuntu/disco)
-    default blacklist of modules to be blocked from automatically loading.
-    However, they are still permitted to load.

-    default. Not completely disabled yet.
+Certain kernel modules are blacklisted by default to reduce attack surface via

+modules from automatically starting.
+
+-   CD-ROM/DVD: Blacklist modules required for CD-ROM/DVD devices.

+-   Conntrack: Deactivates Netfilter's connection tracking helper - this module
+    increases kernel attack surface by enabling superfluous functionality such
+    as IRC parsing in the kernel. Hence, this feature is disabled.
+
+-   Framebuffer Drivers: Blacklisted as they are well-known to be buggy, cause 
+    kernel panics, and are generally only used by legacy devices. 
+
+-   Miscellaneous: Blacklist an assortment other modules to prevent them from
+    automatically loading.
+
+Specific kernel modules are entirely disabled to reduce attack surface via
+`/etc/modprobe.d/30_security-misc_disable.conf`. Disabling prohibits kernel
+modules from starting. This approach should not be considered comprehensive,
+rather it is a form of badness enumeration.
+
+-   File Systems: Disable uncommon and legacy file systems.
+
+-   FireWire (IEEE 1394): Disabled as they are often vulnerable to DMA attacks.
+
+-   GPS: Disables GPS-related modules responsible systems such as for Global

--   Mitigations for known CPU vulnerabilities are enabled and SMT is
-    disabled.
+-   Do not credit the CPU or bootloader as entropy sources at boot in order to
+    maximise the absolute quantity of entropy the pool.
 
--   IOMMU is enabled to prevent DMA attacks along with strict enforcement of

Subject: [PATCH 1037/1790] deleted `/usr/bin/pkexec.security-misc`

This was not used anymore for anything. In the past, we used to `config-package-dev` `replace` `/usr/bin/pkexec` with `/usr/bin/pkexec.security-misc` for the purpose of:

> Redirect calls for pkexec to lxqt-sudo because pkexec is incompatible with hidepid.

* https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=860040
* https://forums.whonix.org/t/cannot-use-pkexec/8129

This was a worthwhile effort, interesting approach but ultimately a dead-end.

 #### umask
 
-Default `umask` is set to `027` for files created by non-root users such as
-user `user`.
+The default `umask` is set to `027` for files created by non-root users, such
+as the account `user`.
 
 This is done using the PAM module `pam_mkhomedir.so umask=027`.
 
-This means files created by non-root users cannot be read by other non-root
-users by default. While Permission Lockdown already protects the `/home` folder,
-this protects other folders such as `/tmp`.
+This configuration ensures that files created by non-root users cannot be read
+by other non-root users by default. While Permission Lockdown already protects
+the `/home` folder, this setting extends protection to other folders such as
+`/tmp`.
 
 `group` read permissions are not removed. This is unnecessary due to Debian's
 use of User Private Groups (UPGs). See also:
 https://wiki.debian.org/UserPrivateGroups
 
-Default `umask` is unchanged for root because then configuration files created
-in `/etc` by the system administrator would be unreadable by "others" and break
-applications. Examples include `/etc/firefox-esr` and `/etc/thunderbird`. The
-`umask` is also set to 022 via `sudoers` configuration, so that files created
-as root are world-readable even when using commands such as `sudo vi
-/etc/file` or `sudo -i; touch /etc/file`.

+/*
+ * This program is designed specifically to immediately and forcibly power off
+ * the system in the event the device providing the root filesystem is
+ * abruptly removed from the system. The idea is that a user can shut down
+ * a portable installation of Kicksecure by simply yanking the USB drive
+ * containing the installation from the computer. Tails provides essentially
+ * the same feature, however it is known for occasionally failing to do its
+ * job properly.
+ *
+ * The fact that we're triggering a shutdown when the device containing the
+ * root filesystem vanishes presents a number of significant challenges:
+ *
+ * - The device providing the entire operating system is gone. The only things
+ *   we will still have left are the kernel, files loaded into RAM (for
+ *   instance under /run), and anything that happens to still be in the
+ *   system's disk cache.
+ * - Virtually any process on the system may abruptly crash at any time. This
+ *   isn't just because applications may be unable to access files. The Linux
+ *   kernel's virtual memory subsystem doesn't just page out RAM contents to a
+ *   swap file, it will sometimes simply erase pages containing executable
+ *   code from memory if it can reload that code from disk later when needed.
+ *   If part of a program isn't present in memory, and then the root device
+ *   vanishes, any attempt to use code in the absent part of the application
+ *   will result in the application crashing. (Attempts to access data in RAM
+ *   that happened to be paged out will result in a similar crash.)
+ * - We have no control over what is and isn't in the disk cache, which makes
+ *   it unsafe to launch any dynamically linked executable. What happens if we
+ *   need to load a missing part of libc? What if the dynamic linker itself
+ *   needs loaded from disk?
+ * - Systemd could lock up at any time, since the init process isn't immune to
+ *   having bits of it erased from RAM to free up memory. If systemd receives
+ *   a SIGSEGV, rather than crashing (which would panic the kernel), it goes
+ *   into an "emergency mode" that tries to keep the system as operational as
+ *   possible even though PID 1 is now out of service.
+ *
+ * Circumventing this set of difficulties is not easy, and it might not even
+ * be entirely possible. To give our feature the highest chance of success:
+ *
+ * - We use memlockd to lock systemd and all libraries it depends on into
+ *   memory. It can holds its own pretty well in the event of a segfault, but
+ *   if its crash handler ends up re-segfaulting, that could get ugly.
+ * - We compile the utility at boot time, statically link it against all of
+ *   its dependencies (really only one, glibc), and load it into /run. This
+ *   allows for decent architecture independence while removing any dependency
+ *   on anything that isn't in RAM, thus (hopefully!) making the process
+ *   crash-immune.
+ * - Because we're static-linking against glibc, we cannot call anything
+ *   defined in stdio.h. This is because glibc uses dlopen() to load iconv
+ *   modules, which are used internally by glibc for locale support. Things
+ *   defined in stdio.h may use iconv, so calling anything there will
+ *   basically make our static-linked executable become dynamically linked,
+ *   which could segfault it since the root filesystem is gone. We can't call
+ *   anything that could touch Name Service Switch (NSS) either, but we have
+ *   no need to do so, so we should be safe there. See
+ *   https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57476533/why-is-statically-linking-glibc-discouraged
+ * - We can't use udev either because libudev is only available as a dynamic
+ *   library. That means we have to listen to kernel uevents directly to
+ *   determine when the root device vanishes. Thankfully this isn't as much of
+ *   a pain as it might sound like.
+ * - We don't call out to any external process, since those external processes
+ *   could segfault.
+ *
+ * This is likely superior to Tails' implementation, which uses udev (and thus
+ * dynamic linking), uses an interpreter-driven script to shut down the system
+ * when the root device vanishes, and calls out to external executables to
+ * actually shut the system down. These issues are likely why Tails'
+ * implementation of emergency shutdown occasionally fails. See
+ * https://www.reddit.com/r/tails/comments/xh8njn/tails_wont_shutdown_when_i_pull_usb_stick/
+ * (there are other similar posts as well).

Subject: [PATCH 1228/1790] Prevent erroneous "Login blocked after [negative
 number] attempts" errors

For root, faillock appears to always* return an empty string (i.e. no table headers are present), yielding a zero-initialized pam_faillock_output_count and thus resulting in the calculation of a negative failed_login_counter value.

This can cause erroneous errors of the form "ERROR: Login blocked after [negative number] attempts" during sudo-ing and screen unlocking.

This commit modifies the initialization of failed_login_counter such that it cannot be negative and prevents the display of these incorrect warnings.

* Only rudimentary tests were conducted

Subject: [PATCH 1238/1790] fix(permission-hardener): ssh-agent gets 755 perms

Replace the commented-out matchwhitelist entry for ssh-agent with an
explicit permission entry (755) for /usr/bin/ssh-agent.

When ssh-agent's matchwhitelist entry was commented out in commit
7a5f8b87af, permission-hardener began resetting it to restrictive
defaults (744), preventing non-root users from executing ssh-agent. This
broke split SSH functionality in Qubes OS for me because I was using
Kicksecure in the vault qube, and ssh-agent runs under a non-root user in
that configuration (see https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/split-ssh/19060).

As noted in the comment, Debian installs with 2755 permissions as a way
to mitigate ptrace attacks, but this rationale doesn't apply due to
kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=2 being set in Kicksecure.

Subject: [PATCH 1240/1790] perf(permission-hardener): optimize string match
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Replace subprocess grep calls with bash substring matching in
check_nosuid_whitelist function. This eliminates ~10k unneeded
subprocess spawns that were causing significant performance
degradation.

In testing, it improves overall script execution speed by an
order of magnitude:

Before patch:
$ sudo hyperfine -- './permission-hardener enable'
Benchmark 1: ./permission-hardener enable
  Time (mean ± σ):     11.906 s ±  0.974 s    [User: 3.639 s, System: 8.728 s]
  Range (min … max):   10.430 s … 14.090 s    10 runs

After patch:
$ sudo hyperfine -- './permission-hardener enable'
Benchmark 1: ./permission-hardener enable
  Time (mean ± σ):     802.8 ms ± 178.5 ms    [User: 283.0 ms, System: 471.9 ms]
  Range (min … max):   639.4 ms … 1092.3 ms    10 runs

+    Replace subprocess grep calls with bash substring matching in

Subject: [PATCH 1264/1790] fix(permission-hardener): ssh-agent gets 2755 perms

Change from exactwhitelist to matchwhitelist. Discussion revealed that
there's a good reason to leave setgid in here, which is essentially
defense-in-depth (sometimes users may want to revert Kicksecure's
default of kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=2, e.g. to debug a program, and
Kicksecure should not be less secure than vanilla Debian in that
situation).

+
+    fix(permission-hardener): ssh-agent gets 755 perms
+    
+    Replace the commented-out matchwhitelist entry for ssh-agent with an
+    explicit permission entry (755) for /usr/bin/ssh-agent.
+    
+    When ssh-agent's matchwhitelist entry was commented out in commit
+    7a5f8b87af, permission-hardener began resetting it to restrictive
+    defaults (744), preventing non-root users from executing ssh-agent. This
+    broke split SSH functionality in Qubes OS for me because I was using
+    Kicksecure in the vault qube, and ssh-agent runs under a non-root user in
+    that configuration (see https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/split-ssh/19060).
+    
+    As noted in the comment, Debian installs with 2755 permissions as a way
+    to mitigate ptrace attacks, but this rationale doesn't apply due to
+    kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=2 being set in Kicksecure.

+## Emergency shutdown

+- Forcibly powers off the system if the drive the system booted from is
+  removed from the system.
+- Forcibly powers off the system if a user-configurable "panic key sequence"
+  is pressed (Ctrl+Alt+Delete by default).
+- Forcibly powers off the system if
+  `sudo /run/emerg-shutdown --instant-shutdown` is called.
+- Optional - Forcibly powers off the system if shutdown gets stuck for longer
+  than a user-configurable number of seconds (30 by default). Requires tuning
+  by the user to function properly, see notes in
+  `/etc/security-misc/emerg-shutdown/30_security_misc.conf`.

+## Package split
+
+The `security-misc` source code repository builds three different software packages:
+
+* `security-misc-shared`
+* `security-misc-desktop`
+* `security-misc-server`
+
+The guiding principle has been: if there are no adverse effects, or if it is unclear whether a file belongs in the `desktop` or `server` package, then it will be placed in the `shared` package.
+
+The hash symbol ("`#`") is used as a separator character.
+
+Some clear examples where files belong only in `security-misc-desktop`:
+
+* `/usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/80_ipv6-privacy#security-misc-desktop.conf`
+* `/usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/80_randomize-mac#security-misc-desktop.conf`
+* `./usr/lib/systemd/networkd.conf.d/80_ipv6-privacy-extensions.conf#security-misc-desktop`
+
+This is because enabling IPv6 privacy extensions or MAC randomization on a server will not increase privacy but instead carries a high risk of breaking connectivity.
+
+A less clear example is `/etc/bluetooth/30_security-misc.conf#security-misc-desktop`. Also refer to the above chapter "Bluetooth Hardening". A server usually doesn't have Bluetooth, so on a server it may instead be useful to fully disable Bluetooth.
+
+Some clear examples where files belong only in `security-misc-shared`:
+
+`/etc/profile.d/30_security-misc.sh#security-misc-shared` indeed belongs in `security-misc-shared` and not `security-misc-desktop`. For the reason, see below.
+
+Other considerations have been:
+
+* Just because it's a server, it does not follow that there is no GUI (graphical user interface) desktop environment.
+* Just because it's a desktop computer, it doesn't mean it's a GUI and not a CLI (command line interface).
+* Therefore, the split is between `security-misc-desktop` and `security-misc-server`.
+* Therefore, the split is not between `security-misc-gui` and `security-misc-cli`.

 security microcode (BIOS/UEFI) updates must be installed on the system. Furthermore,
 if using Secure Boot, the Secure Boot Forbidden Signature Database (DBX) must be kept

-## Threat model: If a legitimate privilege escalation executable exists on the
-## system that uses PAM, and we do not yet lock down its permissions with
-## permission-hardener, we should prevent the use of that application to
-## escalate privileges to any passwordless account that is a member of a group
-## considered to be "sensitive" while in a user session. For instance, if
-## account 'user' is a member of group 'sudo', and a su-like executable
-## exists on the system that account 'nginx' can execute, 'nginx' should not
-## be able to escalate privileges to account 'user'.
-##
-## Out of scope:
-## - Malicious privilege escalation tools. These would need to run as root or
-##   be SUID, and such an executable most likely would grant root access
-##   without authentication or by authenticating the attacker rather than a
-##   legitimate user.
-## - Legitimate privilege escalation tools that don't use PAM. Preventing
-##   these from causing issues would require manipulating password locks in
-##   /etc/passwd on bootup, which is dangerous and likely impossible to do
-##   correctly.
-## - Legitimate login tools that use PAM, such as login, greetd, sshd. These
-##   tools do not permit privilege escalation from one user to another, and
-##   passwordless login is expected to work even for sensitive accounts.

+## File Manager D-Bus shim
+
+To prevent malicious applications from opening malicious content using D-Bus,
+a shim is present that listens for `org.freedesktop.FileManager1` D-Bus method
+calls. This shim displays a confirmation window for every request an
+application makes to open one or more directories, while also ensuring
+applications can only try to open directories (not files), and cannot try to
+open directories that the user cannot access.

+# Agent Guidelines for security-misc
+
+## fm-shim
+
+### D-Bus name acquisition
+
+The fm-shim-backend intentionally uses `DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING`
+**without** `DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE`. When the name cannot be acquired,
+the process warns and omits `READY=1` so that systemcheck alerts the user.
+Hard-failing (via `errx`) removes the service entirely, which is worse than
+running in a degraded-but-monitored state. Do not change this to a fatal error.
+
+### Systemd sandboxing on services that spawn user-facing apps
+
+Do not add restrictive systemd sandboxing directives (`ProtectHome`,
+`MemoryDenyWriteExecute`, `ProtectSystem=strict`, etc.) to the fm-shim
+service. These restrictions are inherited by child processes - the file
+manager and anything it launches. `MemoryDenyWriteExecute` may break JIT,
+`ProtectHome=read-only` breaks normal file manager operations, etc.
+
+### Closing inherited file descriptors in forked children
+
+Use the `close_range(3, ~0U, CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE)` syscall (requires
+`#define _GNU_SOURCE` and `#include <linux/close_range.h>`). Do not iterate
+`/proc/self/fd` manually.
+
+### D-Bus error replies
+
+When sending D-Bus error replies in multiple places, use the shared helper
+function `send_error_message_maybe()` rather than duplicating the pattern
+inline.

+# fm-shim Security Notes
+
+## Architecture
+
+- **Backend** (`fm-shim-backend.c`): C daemon that claims `org.freedesktop.FileManager1`
+  D-Bus name, receives ShowFolders/ShowItems/ShowItemProperties calls, forks a
+  Python frontend with the URI arguments and systemd's user environment.
+- **Frontend** (`fm_shim_frontend.py`): PyQt5 dialog that validates URIs, resolves
+  paths, shows a confirmation prompt, then opens directories via `gio launch`.
+- **Build script** (`build-fm-shim-backend`): Compiles the C backend with
+  extensive GCC hardening flags.
+- **Service** (`fm-shim.service`): systemd user service, Type=notify.
+
+## Rejected Review Suggestions (Kicksecure/security-misc#357)
+
+### pkg-config quoting in build script
+
+pkg-config output is designed to be word-split by shells. Quoting it via bash
+arrays just reimplements word splitting manually. The unquoted
+`$(pkg-config ...)` is intentional. Upstream has a NOTE comment explaining this.
+Do not re-propose this change.
+
+### DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE
+
+The D-Bus name queueing behavior is intentional. The IN_QUEUE case withholds
+`READY=1` (triggering a systemcheck warning) while remaining in the queue to
+reclaim the name ASAP. Exiting immediately would leave the name permanently
+unprotected - a worse outcome. Do not re-propose this change.
+
+## Accepted Threat Model
+
+- Local DoS is out of scope.
+- systemd user manager environment is trusted.
+- Directory replacement / symlink swaps are out of scope (frontend documents this).
+- Success replies are returned even on frontend failure (spec safety).
+- Python >= 3.13.5 required.

+## Systemd preset defaults
+
+The following services are explicitly disabled by default in the systemd
+preset and must be opted-in by the user:
+
+- `hide-hardware-info.service` - Restricts `/sys` and `/proc` hardware info.
+- `permission-hardener.service` - Applies permission hardening at boot.
+- `remount-secure.service` - Remounts filesystems with hardened options.
+- `proc-hidepid.service` - Mounts `/proc` with `hidepid=2`.
+- `harden-module-loading.service` - Disables kernel module loading after boot.
+- `ensure-shutdown.service` - Forced shutdown watchdog.
+- `ensure-shutdown-trigger.service` - Companion trigger for forced shutdown.
+- `memlockd.service` - Memory locking daemon (used by emerg-shutdown).
+
+See: `/usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/50-security-misc.preset`

 ## Miscellaneous
 
 - Hardened malloc compatibility for haveged workaround
-  `/lib/systemd/system/haveged.service.d/30_security-misc.conf`
-
-- Set `dracut` `reproducible=yes` setting
+  `/usr/lib/systemd/system/haveged.service.d/30_security-misc.conf`
+
+- Set `dracut` `reproducible=yes` setting.
+  `/etc/dracut.conf.d/30-security-misc.conf`
+
+- A `virusforget` script detects unauthorized changes to a set of sensitive
+  files by comparing them against a stored baseline. Work in progress - the
+  implementation will likely change significantly.
+  `/usr/libexec/security-misc/virusforget`
+
+- A custom `askpass` helper provides a GUI password prompt via `yad` for
+  superuser actions.
+  `/usr/libexec/security-misc/askpass`
+
+- A helper script checks whether a USB controller is present on the system,
+  used as a conditional for USBGuard services.
+  `/usr/libexec/security-misc/check-for-usb-controller`
+
+- A VirtualBox-specific workaround kills the `VBoxDRMClient` process during
+  shutdown to prevent it from blocking a clean unmount of `/tmp`. Only
+  activates inside VirtualBox VMs.
+  `/usr/lib/systemd/system/kill-vboxdrmclient-on-shutdown.service`
+
+- PAM conditional helpers (`pam_only_if_login`, `pam_only_if_su`) allow
+  specific PAM rules to apply only to certain services.
+  `/usr/libexec/security-misc/pam_only_if_login`
+  `/usr/libexec/security-misc/pam_only_if_su`
+
+- Unsafe logins (such as logging into non-sysmaint accounts while booted in
+  sysmaint mode, or elevating privileges from an unprivileged account to a
+  passwordless privileged account) are blocked. Enforces account/session
+  separation between `sysmaint` and regular user accounts.
+  `/usr/libexec/security-misc/block-unsafe-logins`
+  `/usr/share/pam-configs/block-unsafe-logins-security-misc`
+
+- `/usr/share/security-misc/` is added to `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS` at login via
+  `/etc/profile.d/30_security-misc.sh` so that security-misc XDG
+  configuration overrides (e.g. Dolphin, Thunar) are available system-wide.
+
+- An AppArmor tunable creates aliases for security-misc's config-package-dev
+  displaced files (e.g. `common-session`, `login.defs`, `securetty`) so that
+  AppArmor policies continue to work with the diverted paths.
+  `/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home.d/security-misc`
+
+- A custom `sysinit-post.target` provides a synchronization point between
+  `sysinit.target` and `basic.target` for services that must run after
+  early-boot initialization but before general services.
+  `/usr/lib/systemd/system/sysinit-post.target`
+
+- A systemd drop-in adds the `sysfs` supplementary group to all user session
+  managers (`user@.service`), granting users group-based read access to `/sys`
+  entries restricted by `hide-hardware-info.service`.
+  `/usr/lib/systemd/system/user@.service.d/sysfs.conf`
+
+- LKRG (Linux Kernel Runtime Guard) VirtualBox compatibility: automatically
+  manages LKRG sysctl settings when VirtualBox host software is detected.
+  `/usr/share/security-misc/lkrg/lkrg-virtualbox`

 # Agent Guidelines for security-misc
 
-## fm-shim
+## General Guidelines
 
-### D-Bus name acquisition
+- Check `./agents/` for component-specific notes before reviewing or commenting.
+- Upstream repository: Kicksecure/security-misc
+- No need to mention accepted/fixed/done things unless there is a specific
+  reason why it is needed in memory.
 
-The fm-shim-backend intentionally uses `DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING`
-**without** `DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE`. When the name cannot be acquired,
-the process warns and omits `READY=1` so that systemcheck alerts the user.
-Hard-failing (via `errx`) removes the service entirely, which is worse than
-running in a degraded-but-monitored state. Do not change this to a fatal error.
+## Component Notes
 
-### Systemd sandboxing on services that spawn user-facing apps
+- [fm-shim](./agents/fm-shim.md) - FileManager1 D-Bus shim (backend + frontend)
 
-Do not add restrictive systemd sandboxing directives (`ProtectHome`,
-`MemoryDenyWriteExecute`, `ProtectSystem=strict`, etc.) to the fm-shim
-service. These restrictions are inherited by child processes - the file
-manager and anything it launches. `MemoryDenyWriteExecute` may break JIT,
-`ProtectHome=read-only` breaks normal file manager operations, etc.
+## pkg-config quoting in build script
 
-### Closing inherited file descriptors in forked children
+`pkg-config` output is designed to be word-split by shells. Quoting it via bash
+arrays just reimplements word splitting manually. The unquoted
+`$(pkg-config ...)` is intentional. Upstream has a NOTE comment explaining this.
+Do not re-propose this change.
 
-Use the `close_range(3, ~0U, CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE)` syscall (requires
-`#define _GNU_SOURCE` and `#include <linux/close_range.h>`). Do not iterate
-`/proc/self/fd` manually.
+## Accepted Threat Model
 
-### D-Bus error replies
-
-When sending D-Bus error replies in multiple places, use the shared helper
-function `send_error_message_maybe()` rather than duplicating the pattern
-inline.
+- systemd user manager environment is trusted.
+- Python >= 3.13.5 required.

-preset and must be opted-in by the user:
+preset because these are work-in-progress or can severely break functionality.
+These can be opted-in by the user:
 
 - `hide-hardware-info.service` - Restricts `/sys` and `/proc` hardware info.
+  Testers-only. See [hide-hardware-info.service](https://www.kicksecure.com/wiki/Security-misc#hide-hardware-info.service).
+
 - `permission-hardener.service` - Applies permission hardening at boot.
+  See [permission-hardener.service](https://www.kicksecure.com/wiki/SUID_Disabler_and_Permission_Hardener#permission-hardener.service).
+
 - `remount-secure.service` - Remounts filesystems with hardened options.
+  In development. See [Remount Secure](https://www.kicksecure.com/wiki/Dev/remount-secure).
+  
 - `proc-hidepid.service` - Mounts `/proc` with `hidepid=2`.
+  See [hidepid](https://www.kicksecure.com/wiki/Security-misc#hidepid).

     Replace the commented-out matchwhitelist entry for ssh-agent with an
     explicit permission entry (755) for /usr/bin/ssh-agent.
-    
+
     When ssh-agent's matchwhitelist entry was commented out in commit
     7a5f8b87af, permission-hardener began resetting it to restrictive
     defaults (744), preventing non-root users from executing ssh-agent. This
     broke split SSH functionality in Qubes OS for me because I was using
     Kicksecure in the vault qube, and ssh-agent runs under a non-root user in
     that configuration (see https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/split-ssh/19060).
-    
+
     As noted in the comment, Debian installs with 2755 permissions as a way
     to mitigate ptrace attacks, but this rationale doesn't apply due to
     kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=2 being set in Kicksecure.

Subject: [PATCH 1635/1790] codeql: add static-analysis workflow (python +
 c-cpp)

Adds .github/workflows/codeql.yml as a thin wrapper around the
org-wide reusable workflow in developer-meta-files. Two jobs - one
per language - matching the source mix actually present in the
repo:

  python:  usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend/
  c-cpp:   usr/src/security-misc/{emerg-shutdown,fm-shim-backend}.c

Source files in this repo carry a '#<package-tag>' suffix per the
genmkfile installable-routing convention; that suffix hides them
from CodeQL's Python extractor (which discovers by file extension).
Two helper scripts handle this:

  ci/codeql-prepare.sh - run via the reusable's pre-init hook;
    creates extension-clean symlinks for each '*.py#tag' source.
  ci/codeql-build.sh   - manual build for c-cpp; installs build
    deps and runs gcc -c on each .c file. The C extractor traces
    compiler invocations rather than scanning by extension, so
    the tagged paths can be passed to gcc verbatim.

Cron slot picked to avoid collision with the org's existing
CodeQL slots (helper-scripts '17 4 * * 0', kloak '25 3 * * 5').

Note: this commit is unsigned because security-misc is not yet
registered with the org's commit-signing service.

Subject: [PATCH 1636/1790] codeql: align ci helpers with bash-style-guide

Per developer-meta-files agents/bash-style-guide.md and pre-push-
checklist:

- R-002: add the 'AI-Assisted' header marker on the new bash
  scripts and the workflow YAML.
- R-010: add 'set -o errtrace' to both ci/codeql-*.sh.
- pkg-config: keep the unquoted '\$(pkg-config ...)' subshells
  matching the upstream pattern in build-fm-shim-backend; add a
  NOTE comment and a 'shellcheck disable=SC2046' since the rule
  fires on the intentional shape (AGENTS.md 'pkg-config quoting
  in build script' rule).

Subject: [PATCH 1637/1790] security-misc: extract C compile step into reusable
 helpers

Resolves the TODO atop usr/libexec/security-misc/emerg-shutdown:

  > TODO: Move most of this to a build script that will compile
  > and place under /usr/bin rather than /run.

The motivating use case is also that CodeQL's CI compile path
(ci/codeql-build.sh) was duplicating the gcc command, including
~70 hardening flags. With ~70 flags in two places, drift was a
matter of when, not if.

New helpers (no '.sh' extension to match the rest of usr/libexec/
security-misc/):

  usr/libexec/security-misc/compile-fm-shim-backend
  usr/libexec/security-misc/compile-emerg-shutdown

Each is a pure compile - takes (source, output) positionals, runs
gcc with the project's hardening flag set, exits non-zero on
failure. No chmod, no mv, no install - the caller decides what to
do with the binary.

Consumers:

  build-fm-shim-backend  - keeps mktemp/trap/chmod/mv lifecycle,
                           delegates the gcc invocation.
  emerg-shutdown         - keeps the dracut/config/memlockd/exec
                           logic, delegates the gcc invocation.
                           The hardening flag array and machine-
                           type branching go away from this file.
  ci/codeql-build.sh     - drops the inline gcc, calls both
                           compile- helpers. Single source of
                           truth: CI's hardening flags == runtime's.

Also extends ci/codeql-prepare.sh to symlink '*.c#<tag>' to clean
'*.c' names (in addition to '*.py#<tag>'). gcc selects driver
behavior by file extension - a '*.c#<tag>' source is misclassified
as a linker script ('file format not recognized'). Verified
locally: with the symlinks in place, the helpers produce both
binaries (fm-shim-backend dynamic 49 KB, emerg-shutdown static
875 KB) without warnings under x86_64-linux-gnu.

Wires the c-cpp CodeQL job to run codeql-prepare.sh too via the
reusable workflow's prepare-command hook.

+##     extension; 'foo.py#security-misc-shared' is invisible.
+##   * gcc selects driver behavior by extension; 'foo.c#tag' is

+##     recognized"). The compile helpers used by ci/codeql-build.sh
+##     receive their .c source by path argument, so a clean
+##     '.c'-extension symlink is required here too.
 ##
 ## Walk the tracked file list and create same-directory symlinks
-## without the '#tag' suffix so the extractor sees the source under

-## extension, and ci/codeql-build.sh references the original tagged

Subject: [PATCH 1638/1790] codeql wrapper: trim to minimal; link to
 centralized docs

Drop the scope/#tag/cron-allocation prose - those notes belong in
the reusable's header on developer-meta-files master, not duplicated
here. One-line pointer at the URL is enough; readers needing to
understand the prepare-command + build-command shape follow the
link to the centralized doc.

Subject: [PATCH 1639/1790] ai-reviews: add Claude + Codex review wrappers

Two minimal consumer wrappers calling the org-wide reusables in
developer-meta-files:

  .github/workflows/claude-code.yml
  .github/workflows/codex-review.yml

Behavior matches the kloak/helper-scripts setup: pull_request +
comment-triggered Claude review; pull_request + workflow_dispatch
(fork-PR override) Codex review. Allow-lists inherit the
reusable's defaults.

Requires repo secrets ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and OPENAI_API_KEY to be
set before these produce useful output.

Note: this commit is unsigned because security-misc is not yet
registered with the org's commit-signing service.

Subject: [PATCH 1640/1790] workflows: secrets:inherit + add scorecard wrapper

- ai-review wrappers: replace explicit secret-mapping with
  'secrets: inherit'. Org-wide ANTHROPIC_API_KEY /
  OPENAI_API_KEY propagate without per-repo boilerplate.
- scorecard wrapper added; calls the existing reusable in
  developer-meta-files. Cron slot '30 5 * * 0' keeps it offset
  from the org's other Scorecard slots.

Subject: [PATCH 1641/1790] coverity: add Python coverity scan via org-wide
 reusable

Adds a Coverity Scan wrapper for the Python sources
(usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend/...). C sources
under usr/src/security-misc/ stay covered by CodeQL only for now;
revisit if the C surface grows enough to justify a multi-language
cov-build.

Cron slot '30 6 * * 0' offset from helper-scripts ('0 6 * * 0').

Subject: [PATCH 1642/1790] lint-python: simple Python lint for
 fm_shim_frontend

Two error-only checks (no style noise):

  pyflakes3        - undefined names, unused imports, etc.
  pylint --errors  - E*** rules only (skips C/W/R categories).

Apt-installs python3-pyqt5 so the linters can resolve the PyQt5
imports rather than emitting blanket import-error noise. Re-uses
ci/codeql-prepare.sh to symlink the genmkfile-tagged '*.py#<tag>'
sources to extension-clean paths the linters discover.

Triggers are path-filtered to fm_shim_frontend/ + this workflow +
the prepare script, so unrelated changes do not run it.

(check-secrets, download, build-python, submit) execute cleanly
end-to-end on a real consumer before the reusable is published.

End-to-end test requires both this PR and developer-meta-files PR
to land on master first (workflow_dispatch needs the workflow file
on the default branch per G-A-003). The TEMP @feature-branch ref
becomes obsolete once dev-meta-files PR #7 merges and '@master'
resolves to the new reusable. Reverting now to keep the wrapper
clean for merging.

Subject: [PATCH 1645/1790] lint-python: use flake8 --select=F; add
 suppressions to fsw line

Two fixes for the just-added Python lint workflow.

1. Switch from plain pyflakes3 to 'flake8 --select=F'.

   pyflakes by design does not honor any suppression comment - not
   '# noqa', not '# pylint: disable', nothing. There is no
   escape hatch for intentional violations short of a code
   rewrite. flake8 wraps pyflakes (same F-class checks) and adds
   '# noqa' support, which is the standard pyflakes-aware
   suppression. '--select=F' restricts to F-class rules only
   (undefined names, unused imports, unused locals, ...) and
   skips E/W PEP8 style noise that would clash with the
   codebase's '##' block-comment convention (E266).

2. Apply '# noqa: F841 # pylint: disable=unused-variable' to the
   intentionally-retained QWindow reference in main(). The binding
   is required to keep the QWindow alive while app.exec_() is
   running (Qt does not always retain Python wrappers for top-
   level windows without a parent). Both pyflakes (F841) and
   pylint (unused-variable) flagged it as unused; per-tool
   pragmas are needed because the two tools do not share a
   common 'intentionally unused local' marker.

Locally verified: 'flake8 --select=F' returns rc=0 against the
prepared (symlinked) source paths after these changes.

Subject: [PATCH 1646/1790] coverity: use real Coverity Scan project name

The scan.coverity.com project for this repo is registered under
'Kicksecure-security-misc' (verified at
https://scan.coverity.com/projects/Kicksecure-security-misc).
The reusable wrapper was passing the bare repo name
'security-misc' which produced HTTP 401 on cov-build download
because the project+token pair did not match.

Subject: [PATCH 1647/1790] static-analysis: add cppcheck + bandit wrappers

Free local-runnable extras complementing CodeQL and Coverity:

  cppcheck    - C static analyzer over usr/src/security-misc/.
                Re-uses ci/codeql-prepare.sh to symlink the
                genmkfile-tagged '*.c#security-misc-shared'
                files to clean '*.c' names cppcheck discovers
                by extension.

  bandit      - Python security-focused analyzer over
                usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend/.
                Same prepare-command for the '*.py#tag' files.

Subject: [PATCH 1648/1790] fuzzing: add Hypothesis property tests; fix
 ENAMETOOLONG crash

Adds ci/tests/fm_shim_frontend/test_property.py (six property
tests over get_path_list_from_uris, plus a deterministic
regression suite of nine adversarial inputs) wired into
.github/workflows/lint-python.yml.

The fuzz suite immediately found a real exploitable bug at
introduction: an attacker who can deliver a URI with a single
path component longer than NAME_MAX (255 bytes on Linux) crashed
the process via an uncaught OSError(ENAMETOOLONG=36) from
Path.exists(). Fixed by wrapping the exists() call in
try/except OSError - any OSError is treated as 'non-existent,
skip' (same path the False branch was already handling).

The bug is reachable from an attacker process via the
FileManager1 D-Bus surface (other desktop apps can pass URI
lists). Severity: local DoS of the fm-shim-frontend prompt.

Other infrastructure:

- ci/tests/fm_shim_frontend/conftest.py stubs out 'stdisplay'
  (helper-scripts package, not in the runner's apt) and the
  PyQt5 Qt* submodules (a real pyqt5 install would still be
  needed for live use, but isn't required for property-testing
  the URI validator function in isolation).
- agents/fuzzing.md documents the layout and the local-run
  invocation, mirroring helper-scripts' agents/fuzzing.md.
- AGENTS.md gains a Component Notes pointer to the new doc.

ClusterFuzzLite (Atheris coverage-guided fuzzing) is NOT wired
yet; deferred until the property-test suite has been running
long enough to pick the easy wins.

+## Hypothesis property tests
+
+Property tests live at `ci/tests/<pkg>/test_property.py` (mirroring
+the helper-scripts layout). **Outside** the Python package tree on
+purpose: `debian/security-misc-shared.install` ships
+`usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend/...`, so keeping the
+property tests under `ci/tests/` means they don't end up in the
+installed `.deb`.
+
+Currently covered:
+
+- `ci/tests/fm_shim_frontend/test_property.py` - Hypothesis
+  property tests over `get_path_list_from_uris`, the URI-validation
+  chokepoint between the FileManager1 D-Bus surface and the user-
+  facing dialog. Six properties (never_raises, output_paths_
+  absolute, output_no_dangerous_chars, output_unique_and_sorted,
+  idempotent, plus a deterministic regression-suite of nine
+  adversarial inputs).
+
+  At introduction this suite found an exploitable bug: an attacker
+  who can deliver a URI with a single path component longer than
+  NAME_MAX (255 bytes on Linux) crashed the process via an
+  uncaught `OSError(ENAMETOOLONG)` from `Path.exists()`. Fixed in
+  the same commit that added the suite.
+
+Test runner: `.github/workflows/lint-python.yml` runs flake8
+followed by `python3 -m pytest` against `ci/tests/<pkg>/`. apt-
+installs `python3-pytest`, `python3-hypothesis`, plus PyQt5
+runtime deps required for the source under test to import.
+
+`ci/tests/<pkg>/conftest.py` stubs out `stdisplay` (helper-scripts
+package, not on PyPI / not in apt for the runner) with an identity
+function, and stubs PyQt5.QtCore/Gui/Widgets so that the Qt class
+inheritance at module level (`class FmShimWindow(QDialog)`) works
+without a real display.
+
+Local run (single package):
+
+```
+PYTHONPATH=usr/lib/python3/dist-packages python3 -m pytest \
+  --import-mode=importlib -q \
+  ci/tests/fm_shim_frontend/test_property.py
+```
+
+When adding a new package, mirror the same structure:
+`ci/tests/<pkg>/{test_property.py,conftest.py}`. Keep at least
+two properties: `test_never_raises` and one domain-specific
+invariant.
+
+## ClusterFuzzLite (Atheris / libFuzzer)
+
+Not yet wired up. Helper-scripts has the full
+`.clusterfuzzlite/{Dockerfile,build.sh,project.yaml}` +
+`fuzz/fuzz_<pkg>.py` setup; mirror that here when the property-
+test suite has been running long enough to catch the easy wins
+and the harder, coverage-guided layer is justified.
+
+## Trust footprint
+
+- Hypothesis: Debian apt (`python3-hypothesis`).
+- pytest: Debian apt (`python3-pytest`).
+- PyQt5 + sip: Debian apt (`python3-pyqt5` + `python3-pyqt5.sip`).
+- ClusterFuzzLite + Atheris (when added): Google. Per-pin
+  provenance will live in the future
+  `.clusterfuzzlite/Dockerfile`.

+## Two stubs:

+##     sanitized strings, only on output invariants of the URI list.
+##   * 'PyQt5' submodules (heavy optional GUI dep): replaced by a
+##     fake-module class whose attribute access returns a fresh
+##     'type()'. fm_shim_frontend defines THREE module-level classes
+##     that inherit from QObject / QDialog at import time, so a

+## Hypothesis property tests for fm_shim_frontend.get_path_list_from_uris.
+##
+## Target rationale: get_path_list_from_uris is the URI-validation
+## chokepoint between the FileManager1 D-Bus surface and the user-
+## facing dialog. It runs urllib.parse.urlsplit + urllib.parse.unquote
+## on attacker-supplied strings, then enforces three independent
+## invariants (no Unicode/control chars, no newlines/NUL post-decode,
+## absolute-path-only) before the value is shown to the user or
+## passed to a file manager. A property-test pass over Hypothesis-
+## generated URI lists is the right shape to catch invariant
+## violations: the function should never raise on any input (must
+## degrade gracefully), and several output properties must hold for
+## EVERY entry in the returned list - regardless of input pathology.

Subject: [PATCH 1649/1790] ci: gitignore __pycache__; remove the two stray
 files just committed

The Hypothesis test commit accidentally checked in two .pyc
files under ci/tests/fm_shim_frontend/__pycache__/ from the
local validation run. Drop them, add **/__pycache__/ to
.gitignore so the next 'git add -A' does not re-include them.

Subject: [PATCH 1651/1790] fuzzing: add dfuzzer workflow for fm-shim-backend
 D-Bus surface

Wires up dfuzzer (Debian-archive-shipped D-Bus service fuzzer)
against the fm-shim-backend binary's org.freedesktop.FileManager1
surface. Process-level fuzzing complementing the in-process
Hypothesis suite already covering fm_shim_frontend.

What gets exercised:
  - D-Bus marshaling glue (libdbus-1 path).
  - Method dispatch in main()'s message loop.
  - sd_notify error path under transient session bus.
  - Signal handler interactions.
  - Resource lifecycle across method calls (fd leaks etc).

What's NOT exercised here:
  - The frontend prompt logic (covered by Hypothesis tests).
  - The in-process parser (libFuzzer harness deferred per
    AGENTS.md fuzzing notes).

Workflow body in ci/dfuzzer-run.sh (R-100):
  1. compile-fm-shim-backend -> tmpdir binary
  2. Write XDG-local D-Bus session service file pointing at
     the tmpdir binary so dbus auto-activates it on first
     method call.
  3. dbus-run-session boots a transient session bus and runs
     dfuzzer --bus session --name org.freedesktop.FileManager1
     --max-time $DFUZZER_SECONDS --verbose.

Trigger: workflow_dispatch only initially (mirrors helper-
scripts/fuzz.yml). Once a green-baseline run lands, the
commented-out path-filtered pull_request trigger can be
enabled. Default per-method budget 60s; overridable via
workflow_dispatch input.

Note: dfuzzer is in the Ubuntu universe pocket (apt-installable
on ubuntu-latest by default). No third-party action.

+## fm-shim-backend implements org.freedesktop.FileManager1 on the

Subject: [PATCH 1652/1790] dfuzzer.yml: build dfuzzer from source

dfuzzer is not in the Ubuntu 24.04 (noble) archive (verified
via packages.ubuntu.com - 'No such package'). Switch from
apt-install to a from-source build pinned at the upstream
v1.7 tag. Build deps (meson/ninja/glib/xsltproc/docbook)
added; runtime apt deps (dbus, libdbus-1-dev, libsystemd-dev,
pkg-config, gcc) kept.

Subject: [PATCH 1655/1790] dfuzzer-run.sh: fix dfuzzer flag set + use shell
 timeout

Three corrections after the v2.6 source-code check:

1. dfuzzer 2.6 takes '-n BUS_NAME' (long form '--bus' - misnamed
   in upstream; semantically a bus-NAME value). The previous
   '--name' / '--bus session' invocation produced
   'unrecognized option' and dfuzzer exited 1 before fuzzing
   anything.

2. dfuzzer has NO time-bounded flag - only iteration counts.
   Wrap with shell 'timeout --preserve-status' to enforce a
   per-job time budget. Exit code 124 (budget reached) is
   treated as success since hitting the budget means we got
   the configured amount of fuzzing.

3. Removed '--bus session' - dfuzzer auto-detects the bus from
   DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS (set by dbus-run-session above),
   which is what we want.

The 'set -o errexit' inside the inner bash -c was also dropped
because we now want the wrapper script (not errexit) to drive
the exit-code interpretation; dfuzzer's real exit code reaches
us via 'rc=$?' and is mapped to a friendly outcome string.

Subject: [PATCH 1656/1790] dfuzzer-run.sh: manual backend launch instead of
 dbus auto-activation

XDG-local .service file auto-activation isn't reliable inside
dbus-run-session's transient bus (the dbus-daemon spawned there
seems not to read $XDG_DATA_HOME/dbus-1/services/ - dfuzzer
exits 1 with no meaningful error before any fuzzing happens).

Switched approach:
  1. Inside dbus-run-session, start fm-shim-backend in the
     background. It registers the org.freedesktop.FileManager1
     well-known name on the session bus and enters its dispatch
     loop.
  2. sleep 1 + kill -0 check to surface 'backend died during
     startup' before dfuzzer's misleading 'name not found' error.
  3. Run dfuzzer against the now-registered name.
  4. EXIT-trap kills the backend at the end.

Also restructured to avoid multi-level shell quoting: the inner
script lives in a tempfile and gets the binary path + seconds
budget as positional args. Easier to read; bug-class found while
debugging.

dfuzzer flag now '-I 50' (50 iterations per method, default per-
method coverage on the small FileManager1 surface). Total wall-
clock still bounded by 'timeout --preserve-status' wrapper.

Subject: [PATCH 1657/1790] fm-shim-backend: implement
 org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect

Real bug found while wiring up the dfuzzer workflow: fm-shim-
backend's hardcoded interface filter rejects every method call
that isn't on org.freedesktop.FileManager1, including the
standard org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect that
every introspection-aware D-Bus client expects.

Symptoms before this fix:
- 'busctl introspect --user org.freedesktop.FileManager1
  /org/freedesktop/FileManager1' fails with 'Unknown interface'.
- 'd-feet' / 'qdbusviewer' don't enumerate the service's
  methods.
- dfuzzer exits 1 with no usable output (can't introspect ->
  doesn't know what to fuzz).

Fix is conventional: implement Introspect to return a static XML
description of the FileManager1 surface plus the standard
Introspectable interface itself. Argument signatures ('as' for
the URI list, 's' for the startup ID) match the freedesktop.org
file-manager-interface spec. Static string + one extra branch
in dispatch; no runtime cost.

Discovered by: ci/dfuzzer-run.sh first integration run on
master 6ed21ea (2026-05-08). With this patch dfuzzer can
introspect, enumerate the three methods (ShowFolders,
ShowItems, ShowItemProperties), and proceed to fuzz them.

Subject: [PATCH 1658/1790] dfuzzer-run.sh: diagnostic logging + busctl
 introspect probe

After two iterations where dfuzzer exits 1 with no usable
diagnostic ('Cannot open suppression file ... Exit status: 1'
- which is dfuzzer's normal idle output, not the actual error),
add three probes that surface the real state of the world:

1. fm-shim-backend stdout/stderr captured to a tmpdir log file
   and dumped via ::group::. Without a tty its output is block-
   buffered and gets lost when the kill-on-EXIT trap fires;
   redirecting to a file flushes on close.

2. NameHasOwner poll loop (up to 5 attempts at 1s each) that
   confirms the well-known name is registered before dfuzzer
   tries to talk to it. Fails fast and surfaces the backend's
   stdout if the backend dies during startup.

3. 'busctl --user introspect' before dfuzzer to verify the
   Introspectable wiring (the just-added handle_introspect()
   in fm-shim-backend.c). If busctl can't introspect, dfuzzer
   won't be able to either - and we'll see exactly where the
   chain breaks.

This is exactly the diagnostic loop helper-scripts' fuzz.yml
went through during its initial Atheris/CFL bring-up; document
the pattern in agents/fuzzing.md once the dust settles.

Subject: [PATCH 1660/1790] dfuzzer-run.sh: pass --no-suppressions

dfuzzer 2.6 treats 'no suppression file found at any of the
3 candidate paths (./dfuzzer.conf, ~/.dfuzzer.conf,
/etc/dfuzzer.conf)' as a fatal error and exits 1 before fuzzing
anything (verified in upstream src/dfuzzer.c main() - the
df_suppression_load() call returns -1, which prints the literal
'Exit status: 1' and goto cleanup). On a fresh GitHub runner
none of those paths exist, so the workflow always failed
immediately. We don't want suppressions anyway: we want every
crash / unexpected exit reported.

The reusable workflow no longer needs id-token: write (the action
authenticates to api.anthropic.com via a static ANTHROPIC_API_KEY;
OIDC federation is unused). Drop the permission to honor
least-privilege - an OIDC token, if forged or leaked, can
authenticate to cloud-provider integrations.

Subject: [PATCH 1664/1790] claude-code: restore id-token: write

Reverts the earlier 'drop id-token' commit. Verified against a live
workflow log that the action DOES use OIDC federation:

  Requesting OIDC token...
  OIDC token successfully obtained
  Exchanging OIDC token for app token...
  Using GITHUB_TOKEN from OIDC

The action federates the runner's id-token to an Anthropic-controlled
GitHub App which mints a higher-privilege GITHUB_TOKEN used to post
review comments. Without id-token: write the next run would have
failed with 'Could not fetch an OIDC token'.

Subject: [PATCH 1665/1790] codeql: drop packages: read

None of our CodeQL builds pull from ghcr.io (kloak runs
'bash build.sh', security-misc runs 'bash ci/codeql-build.sh',
helper-scripts and msgcollector are pure-Python). Drop the
defensive 'packages: read' grant in favor of least-privilege.

A future consumer that genuinely authenticates to GitHub
Packages from a CodeQL build step can re-add it locally.

Reusable docblock notes the rationale so a future maintainer
doesn't reflexively re-add it.

+    codeql: drop packages: read
+
+    None of our CodeQL builds pull from ghcr.io (kloak runs
+    'bash build.sh', security-misc runs 'bash ci/codeql-build.sh',
+    helper-scripts and msgcollector are pure-Python). Drop the
+    defensive 'packages: read' grant in favor of least-privilege.
+
+    A future consumer that genuinely authenticates to GitHub
+    Packages from a CodeQL build step can re-add it locally.
+
+    Reusable docblock notes the rationale so a future maintainer
+    doesn't reflexively re-add it.

+    claude-code: restore id-token: write
+
+    Reverts the earlier 'drop id-token' commit. Verified against a live
+    workflow log that the action DOES use OIDC federation:
+
+      Requesting OIDC token...
+      OIDC token successfully obtained
+      Exchanging OIDC token for app token...
+      Using GITHUB_TOKEN from OIDC
+
+    The action federates the runner's id-token to an Anthropic-controlled
+    GitHub App which mints a higher-privilege GITHUB_TOKEN used to post
+    review comments. Without id-token: write the next run would have
+    failed with 'Could not fetch an OIDC token'.

+
+    dfuzzer-run.sh: pass --no-suppressions
+
+    dfuzzer 2.6 treats 'no suppression file found at any of the
+    3 candidate paths (./dfuzzer.conf, ~/.dfuzzer.conf,
+    /etc/dfuzzer.conf)' as a fatal error and exits 1 before fuzzing
+    anything (verified in upstream src/dfuzzer.c main() - the
+    df_suppression_load() call returns -1, which prints the literal
+    'Exit status: 1' and goto cleanup). On a fresh GitHub runner
+    none of those paths exist, so the workflow always failed
+    immediately. We don't want suppressions anyway: we want every
+    crash / unexpected exit reported.

+
+    dfuzzer-run.sh: diagnostic logging + busctl introspect probe
+
+    After two iterations where dfuzzer exits 1 with no usable
+    diagnostic ('Cannot open suppression file ... Exit status: 1'
+    - which is dfuzzer's normal idle output, not the actual error),
+    add three probes that surface the real state of the world:
+
+    1. fm-shim-backend stdout/stderr captured to a tmpdir log file
+       and dumped via ::group::. Without a tty its output is block-
+       buffered and gets lost when the kill-on-EXIT trap fires;
+       redirecting to a file flushes on close.
+
+    2. NameHasOwner poll loop (up to 5 attempts at 1s each) that
+       confirms the well-known name is registered before dfuzzer
+       tries to talk to it. Fails fast and surfaces the backend's
+       stdout if the backend dies during startup.
+
+    3. 'busctl --user introspect' before dfuzzer to verify the
+       Introspectable wiring (the just-added handle_introspect()
+       in fm-shim-backend.c). If busctl can't introspect, dfuzzer
+       won't be able to either - and we'll see exactly where the
+       chain breaks.
+
+    This is exactly the diagnostic loop helper-scripts' fuzz.yml
+    went through during its initial Atheris/CFL bring-up; document
+    the pattern in agents/fuzzing.md once the dust settles.

+
+    fm-shim-backend: implement org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect
+
+    Real bug found while wiring up the dfuzzer workflow: fm-shim-
+    backend's hardcoded interface filter rejects every method call
+    that isn't on org.freedesktop.FileManager1, including the
+    standard org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect that
+    every introspection-aware D-Bus client expects.
+
+    Symptoms before this fix:
+    - 'busctl introspect --user org.freedesktop.FileManager1
+      /org/freedesktop/FileManager1' fails with 'Unknown interface'.
+    - 'd-feet' / 'qdbusviewer' don't enumerate the service's
+      methods.
+    - dfuzzer exits 1 with no usable output (can't introspect ->
+      doesn't know what to fuzz).
+
+    Fix is conventional: implement Introspect to return a static XML
+    description of the FileManager1 surface plus the standard
+    Introspectable interface itself. Argument signatures ('as' for
+    the URI list, 's' for the startup ID) match the freedesktop.org
+    file-manager-interface spec. Static string + one extra branch
+    in dispatch; no runtime cost.
+
+    Discovered by: ci/dfuzzer-run.sh first integration run on
+    master 6ed21ea (2026-05-08). With this patch dfuzzer can
+    introspect, enumerate the three methods (ShowFolders,
+    ShowItems, ShowItemProperties), and proceed to fuzz them.

+
+    dfuzzer-run.sh: manual backend launch instead of dbus auto-activation
+
+    XDG-local .service file auto-activation isn't reliable inside
+    dbus-run-session's transient bus (the dbus-daemon spawned there
+    seems not to read $XDG_DATA_HOME/dbus-1/services/ - dfuzzer
+    exits 1 with no meaningful error before any fuzzing happens).
+
+    Switched approach:
+      1. Inside dbus-run-session, start fm-shim-backend in the
+         background. It registers the org.freedesktop.FileManager1
+         well-known name on the session bus and enters its dispatch
+         loop.
+      2. sleep 1 + kill -0 check to surface 'backend died during
+         startup' before dfuzzer's misleading 'name not found' error.
+      3. Run dfuzzer against the now-registered name.
+      4. EXIT-trap kills the backend at the end.
+
+    Also restructured to avoid multi-level shell quoting: the inner
+    script lives in a tempfile and gets the binary path + seconds
+    budget as positional args. Easier to read; bug-class found while
+    debugging.
+
+    dfuzzer flag now '-I 50' (50 iterations per method, default per-
+    method coverage on the small FileManager1 surface). Total wall-
+    clock still bounded by 'timeout --preserve-status' wrapper.

+
+    dfuzzer-run.sh: fix dfuzzer flag set + use shell timeout
+
+    Three corrections after the v2.6 source-code check:
+
+    1. dfuzzer 2.6 takes '-n BUS_NAME' (long form '--bus' - misnamed
+       in upstream; semantically a bus-NAME value). The previous
+       '--name' / '--bus session' invocation produced
+       'unrecognized option' and dfuzzer exited 1 before fuzzing
+       anything.
+
+    2. dfuzzer has NO time-bounded flag - only iteration counts.
+       Wrap with shell 'timeout --preserve-status' to enforce a
+       per-job time budget. Exit code 124 (budget reached) is
+       treated as success since hitting the budget means we got
+       the configured amount of fuzzing.
+
+    3. Removed '--bus session' - dfuzzer auto-detects the bus from
+       DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS (set by dbus-run-session above),
+       which is what we want.
+
+    The 'set -o errexit' inside the inner bash -c was also dropped
+    because we now want the wrapper script (not errexit) to drive
+    the exit-code interpretation; dfuzzer's real exit code reaches
+    us via 'rc=$?' and is mapped to a friendly outcome string.

+
+    fuzzing: add dfuzzer workflow for fm-shim-backend D-Bus surface
+
+    Wires up dfuzzer (Debian-archive-shipped D-Bus service fuzzer)
+    against the fm-shim-backend binary's org.freedesktop.FileManager1
+    surface. Process-level fuzzing complementing the in-process
+    Hypothesis suite already covering fm_shim_frontend.
+
+    What gets exercised:
+      - D-Bus marshaling glue (libdbus-1 path).
+      - Method dispatch in main()'s message loop.
+      - sd_notify error path under transient session bus.
+      - Signal handler interactions.
+      - Resource lifecycle across method calls (fd leaks etc).
+
+    What's NOT exercised here:
+      - The frontend prompt logic (covered by Hypothesis tests).
+      - The in-process parser (libFuzzer harness deferred per
+        AGENTS.md fuzzing notes).
+
+    Workflow body in ci/dfuzzer-run.sh (R-100):
+      1. compile-fm-shim-backend -> tmpdir binary
+      2. Write XDG-local D-Bus session service file pointing at
+         the tmpdir binary so dbus auto-activates it on first
+         method call.
+      3. dbus-run-session boots a transient session bus and runs
+         dfuzzer --bus session --name org.freedesktop.FileManager1
+         --max-time $DFUZZER_SECONDS --verbose.
+
+    Trigger: workflow_dispatch only initially (mirrors helper-
+    scripts/fuzz.yml). Once a green-baseline run lands, the
+    commented-out path-filtered pull_request trigger can be
+    enabled. Default per-method budget 60s; overridable via
+    workflow_dispatch input.
+
+    Note: dfuzzer is in the Ubuntu universe pocket (apt-installable
+    on ubuntu-latest by default). No third-party action.

+    tests over get_path_list_from_uris, plus a deterministic
+    regression suite of nine adversarial inputs) wired into
+    .github/workflows/lint-python.yml.
+
+    The fuzz suite immediately found a real exploitable bug at
+    introduction: an attacker who can deliver a URI with a single
+    path component longer than NAME_MAX (255 bytes on Linux) crashed
+    the process via an uncaught OSError(ENAMETOOLONG=36) from
+    Path.exists(). Fixed by wrapping the exists() call in
+    try/except OSError - any OSError is treated as 'non-existent,
+    skip' (same path the False branch was already handling).
+
+    The bug is reachable from an attacker process via the
+    FileManager1 D-Bus surface (other desktop apps can pass URI
+    lists). Severity: local DoS of the fm-shim-frontend prompt.
+
+    Other infrastructure:
+
+    - ci/tests/fm_shim_frontend/conftest.py stubs out 'stdisplay'
+      (helper-scripts package, not in the runner's apt) and the
+      PyQt5 Qt* submodules (a real pyqt5 install would still be
+      needed for live use, but isn't required for property-testing
+      the URI validator function in isolation).
+    - agents/fuzzing.md documents the layout and the local-run
+      invocation, mirroring helper-scripts' agents/fuzzing.md.
+    - AGENTS.md gains a Component Notes pointer to the new doc.
+
+    ClusterFuzzLite (Atheris coverage-guided fuzzing) is NOT wired
+    yet; deferred until the property-test suite has been running
+    long enough to pick the easy wins.

+
+    lint-python: use flake8 --select=F; add suppressions to fsw line
+
+    Two fixes for the just-added Python lint workflow.
+
+    1. Switch from plain pyflakes3 to 'flake8 --select=F'.
+
+       pyflakes by design does not honor any suppression comment - not
+       '# noqa', not '# pylint: disable', nothing. There is no
+       escape hatch for intentional violations short of a code
+       rewrite. flake8 wraps pyflakes (same F-class checks) and adds
+       '# noqa' support, which is the standard pyflakes-aware
+       suppression. '--select=F' restricts to F-class rules only
+       (undefined names, unused imports, unused locals, ...) and
+       skips E/W PEP8 style noise that would clash with the
+       codebase's '##' block-comment convention (E266).
+
+    2. Apply '# noqa: F841 # pylint: disable=unused-variable' to the
+       intentionally-retained QWindow reference in main(). The binding
+       is required to keep the QWindow alive while app.exec_() is
+       running (Qt does not always retain Python wrappers for top-
+       level windows without a parent). Both pyflakes (F841) and
+       pylint (unused-variable) flagged it as unused; per-tool
+       pragmas are needed because the two tools do not share a
+       common 'intentionally unused local' marker.
+
+    Locally verified: 'flake8 --select=F' returns rc=0 against the
+    prepared (symlinked) source paths after these changes.

+
+    End-to-end test requires both this PR and developer-meta-files PR

+    lint-python: simple Python lint for fm_shim_frontend
+
+    Two error-only checks (no style noise):
+
+      pyflakes3        - undefined names, unused imports, etc.
+      pylint --errors  - E*** rules only (skips C/W/R categories).
+
+    Apt-installs python3-pyqt5 so the linters can resolve the PyQt5
+    imports rather than emitting blanket import-error noise. Re-uses
+    ci/codeql-prepare.sh to symlink the genmkfile-tagged '*.py#<tag>'
+    sources to extension-clean paths the linters discover.
+
+    Triggers are path-filtered to fm_shim_frontend/ + this workflow +
+    the prepare script, so unrelated changes do not run it.

+
+    security-misc: extract C compile step into reusable helpers
+
+    Resolves the TODO atop usr/libexec/security-misc/emerg-shutdown:
+
+      > TODO: Move most of this to a build script that will compile
+      > and place under /usr/bin rather than /run.
+
+    The motivating use case is also that CodeQL's CI compile path
+    (ci/codeql-build.sh) was duplicating the gcc command, including
+    ~70 hardening flags. With ~70 flags in two places, drift was a
+    matter of when, not if.
+
+    New helpers (no '.sh' extension to match the rest of usr/libexec/
+    security-misc/):
+
+      usr/libexec/security-misc/compile-fm-shim-backend
+      usr/libexec/security-misc/compile-emerg-shutdown
+
+    Each is a pure compile - takes (source, output) positionals, runs
+    gcc with the project's hardening flag set, exits non-zero on
+    failure. No chmod, no mv, no install - the caller decides what to
+    do with the binary.
+
+    Consumers:
+
+      build-fm-shim-backend  - keeps mktemp/trap/chmod/mv lifecycle,
+                               delegates the gcc invocation.
+      emerg-shutdown         - keeps the dracut/config/memlockd/exec
+                               logic, delegates the gcc invocation.
+                               The hardening flag array and machine-
+                               type branching go away from this file.
+      ci/codeql-build.sh     - drops the inline gcc, calls both
+                               compile- helpers. Single source of
+                               truth: CI's hardening flags == runtime's.
+
+    Also extends ci/codeql-prepare.sh to symlink '*.c#<tag>' to clean
+    '*.c' names (in addition to '*.py#<tag>'). gcc selects driver
+    behavior by file extension - a '*.c#<tag>' source is misclassified
+    as a linker script ('file format not recognized'). Verified
+    locally: with the symlinks in place, the helpers produce both
+    binaries (fm-shim-backend dynamic 49 KB, emerg-shutdown static
+    875 KB) without warnings under x86_64-linux-gnu.
+
+    Wires the c-cpp CodeQL job to run codeql-prepare.sh too via the
+    reusable workflow's prepare-command hook.

+
+    codeql: add static-analysis workflow (python + c-cpp)
+
+    Adds .github/workflows/codeql.yml as a thin wrapper around the
+    org-wide reusable workflow in developer-meta-files. Two jobs - one
+    per language - matching the source mix actually present in the
+    repo:
+
+      python:  usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend/
+      c-cpp:   usr/src/security-misc/{emerg-shutdown,fm-shim-backend}.c
+
+    Source files in this repo carry a '#<package-tag>' suffix per the
+    genmkfile installable-routing convention; that suffix hides them
+    from CodeQL's Python extractor (which discovers by file extension).
+    Two helper scripts handle this:
+
+      ci/codeql-prepare.sh - run via the reusable's pre-init hook;
+        creates extension-clean symlinks for each '*.py#tag' source.
+      ci/codeql-build.sh   - manual build for c-cpp; installs build
+        deps and runs gcc -c on each .c file. The C extractor traces
+        compiler invocations rather than scanning by extension, so
+        the tagged paths can be passed to gcc verbatim.
+
+    Cron slot picked to avoid collision with the org's existing
+    CodeQL slots (helper-scripts '17 4 * * 0', kloak '25 3 * * 5').
+
+    Note: this commit is unsigned because security-misc is not yet

Subject: [PATCH 1673/1790] coverity: migrate to consumer-template architecture

Per dmf #67 (reusable refactor) + #68 (deadlock hotfix):

- New: .github/dm-consumer.yml with coverity.project-name +
  canonical-repos.
- Renamed: .github/workflows/coverity.yml -> consumer-coverity.yml,
  byte-identical to dmf canonical (no `with:`, secrets-only).

Behavior change:

- Cron slot moves from '30 6 * * 0' (Sunday 06:30) to
  '0 4 * * 5' (Friday 04:00) - the org-wide singleton slot in
  the canonical template.

Subject: [PATCH 1674/1790] cppcheck: migrate to consumer-template architecture

Per dmf #68 (reusable-cppcheck.yml hard refactor). The old
cppcheck.yml wrapper passed inputs (paths, prepare-command) that
no longer exist on the reusable. Without this migration the
next cppcheck run (PR / master push) would fail because the
reusable's runtime config-load step would not find the cppcheck
section in .github/dm-consumer.yml.

Changes:

- .github/dm-consumer.yml: add cppcheck.paths +
  cppcheck.prepare-command (the values the old wrapper passed
  via `with:`).
- Renamed: .github/workflows/cppcheck.yml ->
  consumer-cppcheck.yml, byte-identical to dmf canonical (no
  `with:`, just the reusable call).

Subject: [PATCH 1675/1790] codeql: migrate to split
 consumer-codeql-{python,cpp} wrappers

Per dmf #69 (reusable-codeql.yml hard refactor + single-job
per-language wrappers per design decision 3). The old
codeql.yml had two jobs (python + c-cpp) in one workflow; the
new architecture splits these into two separate workflow files.

Changes:

- Deleted: .github/workflows/codeql.yml (old multi-job).
- New: .github/workflows/consumer-codeql-python.yml
  (byte-identical to dmf canonical).
- New: .github/workflows/consumer-codeql-cpp.yml
  (byte-identical to dmf canonical).
- .github/dm-consumer.yml: add
    codeql-python.prepare-command: "ci/codeql-prepare.sh"
    codeql-cpp.prepare-command:    "ci/codeql-prepare.sh"
    codeql-cpp.build-command:      "ci/codeql-build.sh"
  (the values the old codeql.yml passed via `with:` for each
  language job).

Behavior change: python scan and c-cpp scan now run as separate
Actions UI entries (CodeQL Python / CodeQL c-cpp). A failure in
one no longer fails the other.

Subject: [PATCH 1676/1790] bandit: migrate to consumer-bandit wrapper

Per dmf #69 (reusable-bandit.yml refactor to shebang-aware
discovery). The old bandit.yml passed
`with: paths: usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend`
and `with: prepare-command: ci/codeql-prepare.sh` to symlink
genmkfile-tagged '*.py#tag' files. Both are no longer needed -
the reusable now discovers Python by extension OR by shebang
on its own.

Changes:

- Renamed: .github/workflows/bandit.yml -> consumer-bandit.yml,
  byte-identical to dmf canonical (no `with:`).

Behavior change: bandit now scans the whole repo via shebang
discovery (including any Python outside
`usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend`). If new false
positives surface, suppress per-line with `# nosec`.

ci/codeql-prepare.sh remains in the repo - it's still used by
codeql-python and codeql-cpp jobs (per .github/dm-consumer.yml).

Per consumer-template architecture: workflows that live only in
one repo carry the `local-` prefix. Two renames:

- dfuzzer.yml -> local-dbus-fuzz.yml
  (tool name -> surface name; says what's being fuzzed)
- lint-python.yml -> local-python-lint.yml
  (reorder to match local-<lang>-<verb> pattern used in other
  repos, e.g. helper-scripts local-python-checks)

Subject: [PATCH 1678/1790] workflows: rename legacy unprefixed to consumer-
 prefix

Per consumer-template architecture (G-A-005, three-prefix
convention): wrappers around developer-meta-files reusables
carry the `consumer-` prefix. This is the bulk rollout of the
prefix to this repo's universal wrappers.

Each file is byte-identical to its corresponding canonical in
developer-meta-files/consumer-templates/.github/workflows/.

User-facing `name:` fields unchanged. cron slots converge on
the org-wide singleton (`0 6 * * 0` for Scorecard) per spec
"Scheduling in byte-identical templates" - GitHub queue
serializes; Scorecard's low value-to-noise ratio makes that
contention acceptable.

 dmf canonicals

Follow-up to the rename commit: in addition to renaming the
files, content must be byte-identical to the canonical wrappers
in developer-meta-files/consumer-templates/.github/workflows/.

Differences absorbed by this commit:

- scorecard.yml cron slot: per-repo allocation -> uniform
  org-wide '0 6 * * 0' (the canonical's slot).
- Header comments: switched to the standard "Managed by
  pkg_update_consumer_workflows" template so contributors see
  the propagation contract.

User-facing `name:` fields unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 1680/1790] scorecard: remove consumer-scorecard.yml (org-wide
 opt-out)

Per the consumer-template architecture's opt-in-by-file-presence
rule, deleting a consumer-*.yml is the opt-out signal:
pkg_update_consumer_workflows refreshes only files that already
exist on the consumer side; the next propagation pass will not
re-create this.

Org-wide policy: Scorecard's value-to-noise ratio is low (many
false positives, non-actionable signals). Keeping it only in
derivative-maker (the canonical baseline) where the org-wide
supply-chain signal is most useful.

Spec:

Subject: [PATCH 1681/1790] workflow triggers: normalize pull_request to
 branches: [master]

Propagate dmf canonical updates for consumer-claude-code.yml and
consumer-codex-review.yml: bare `pull_request:` ->
`pull_request: branches: [master]`. Matches the byte-identical
canonical in
developer-meta-files/consumer-templates/.github/workflows/.

Practical impact: PRs targeting feature branches no longer fire
the AI reviews. The org's typical workflow (feature-branch ->
master PR) is unaffected.

Subject: [PATCH 1682/1790] local-dbus-fuzz: enable path-filtered pull_request
 trigger

dfuzzer (D-Bus) workflow has been verified green via workflow_dispatch
on master. Enable the previously commented-out pull_request trigger
so PRs that touch the fm-shim-backend C source, its compile script,
the dfuzzer build/runner, or this workflow itself get fuzz coverage.

Also:
- fix stale workflow filename reference (.github/workflows/dfuzzer.yml
  -> .github/workflows/local-dbus-fuzz.yml; renamed under G-A-005)
- add ci/dfuzzer-build.sh to the paths filter (it builds the dfuzzer
  binary from source - changes here invalidate prior runs)
- rewrite the header comment that described the now-historic
  workflow_dispatch-only state.

Subject: [PATCH 1683/1790] local-python-lint: drop paths filter, always run
 lint

The 3-entry paths filter went stale - the workflow filename
reference and the apt cache key both still pointed at
'.github/workflows/lint-python.yml' from before the G-A-005
three-prefix rename to 'local-python-lint.yml'. Filter-going-
stale silently skips lint on PRs it should cover.

Drop the filter so push(master) and pull_request(master) always
run lint. Repo is mixed C/AppArmor/scripts but the lint job is
fast (10-min timeout, ~1 min real). Update the cache hashFiles()
to match the new workflow filename so apt cache invalidates
correctly when this workflow is edited.

+
+    workflows: rename legacy unprefixed to consumer- prefix
+
+    Per consumer-template architecture (G-A-005, three-prefix
+    convention): wrappers around developer-meta-files reusables
+    carry the `consumer-` prefix. This is the bulk rollout of the
+    prefix to this repo's universal wrappers.
+
+    Each file is byte-identical to its corresponding canonical in
+    developer-meta-files/consumer-templates/.github/workflows/.
+
+    User-facing `name:` fields unchanged. cron slots converge on
+    the org-wide singleton (`0 6 * * 0` for Scorecard) per spec
+    "Scheduling in byte-identical templates" - GitHub queue
+    serializes; Scorecard's low value-to-noise ratio makes that
+    contention acceptable.
+
+    Spec:
+    https://github.com/org-ai-assisted/developer-meta-files/blob/master/agents/github-actions-consumer-templates.md

+    Per consumer-template architecture: workflows that live only in
+    one repo carry the `local-` prefix. Two renames:
+
+    - dfuzzer.yml -> local-dbus-fuzz.yml
+      (tool name -> surface name; says what's being fuzzed)
+    - lint-python.yml -> local-python-lint.yml
+      (reorder to match local-<lang>-<verb> pattern used in other

+
+    User-facing `name:` fields unchanged.

+
+    bandit: migrate to consumer-bandit wrapper
+
+    Per dmf #69 (reusable-bandit.yml refactor to shebang-aware
+    discovery). The old bandit.yml passed
+    `with: paths: usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend`
+    and `with: prepare-command: ci/codeql-prepare.sh` to symlink
+    genmkfile-tagged '*.py#tag' files. Both are no longer needed -
+    the reusable now discovers Python by extension OR by shebang
+    on its own.
+
+    Changes:
+
+    - Renamed: .github/workflows/bandit.yml -> consumer-bandit.yml,
+      byte-identical to dmf canonical (no `with:`).
+
+    Behavior change: bandit now scans the whole repo via shebang
+    discovery (including any Python outside
+    `usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/fm_shim_frontend`). If new false
+    positives surface, suppress per-line with `# nosec`.
+
+    ci/codeql-prepare.sh remains in the repo - it's still used by
+    codeql-python and codeql-cpp jobs (per .github/dm-consumer.yml).

+    codeql: migrate to split consumer-codeql-{python,cpp} wrappers
+
+    Per dmf #69 (reusable-codeql.yml hard refactor + single-job
+    per-language wrappers per design decision 3). The old
+    codeql.yml had two jobs (python + c-cpp) in one workflow; the
+    new architecture splits these into two separate workflow files.
+
+    Changes:
+
+    - Deleted: .github/workflows/codeql.yml (old multi-job).
+    - New: .github/workflows/consumer-codeql-python.yml
+      (byte-identical to dmf canonical).
+    - New: .github/workflows/consumer-codeql-cpp.yml
+      (byte-identical to dmf canonical).
+    - .github/dm-consumer.yml: add
+        codeql-python.prepare-command: "ci/codeql-prepare.sh"
+        codeql-cpp.prepare-command:    "ci/codeql-prepare.sh"
+        codeql-cpp.build-command:      "ci/codeql-build.sh"
+      (the values the old codeql.yml passed via `with:` for each
+      language job).
+
+    Behavior change: python scan and c-cpp scan now run as separate
+    Actions UI entries (CodeQL Python / CodeQL c-cpp). A failure in
+    one no longer fails the other.

+
+    cppcheck: migrate to consumer-template architecture
+
+    Per dmf #68 (reusable-cppcheck.yml hard refactor). The old
+    cppcheck.yml wrapper passed inputs (paths, prepare-command) that
+    no longer exist on the reusable. Without this migration the
+    next cppcheck run (PR / master push) would fail because the
+    reusable's runtime config-load step would not find the cppcheck

Subject: [PATCH 1685/1790] ci: use apt-install-with-cache composite action;
 drop broad restore-keys

Both local-dbus-fuzz.yml and local-python-lint.yml used
`path: /var/cache/apt/archives` with `sudo chown -R` on the system
dir + a broad `restore-keys:` prefix. Three problems:

1. Same `tar: partial/: Permission denied` cache-save warning as
   the developer-meta-files reusables (apt\'s _apt:root 0700
   partial/ subdir is unreadable by the runner; chown doesn\'t
   help because apt-get install recreates partial/ 0700 every
   run).

2. `restore-keys:` violates agents/github-actions.md G-A-007
   ("no broad restore-keys, no pull_request_target + cache" -
   cache-poisoning risk). The cache-key already includes
   hashFiles() so a config change naturally invalidates;
   restore-keys would defeat that.

3. Duplicated `Prepare apt cache directory` + `Cache apt packages`
   YAML across two workflows.

Fix: replace those steps with one composite-action call:

  - uses: org-ai-assisted/developer-meta-files/.github/actions/apt-install-with-cache@master
    with:
      packages: \'<deps>\'
      cache-key: ${{ runner.os }}-apt-<tag>-${{ hashFiles(...) }}

The composite action caches `~/.apt-deb-cache` (runner-owned, no
system-dir permission gymnastics) and sudo-copies .debs in/out of
/var/cache/apt/archives around apt-get install. apt\'s normal
permission model is preserved.

local-dbus-fuzz.yml additionally:

  - ci/dfuzzer-build.sh is refactored to drop its `Phase 1` apt
    install. The package list moves into the workflow (passed to
    the composite action), where it lives alongside the cache key
    that invalidates on changes. dfuzzer-build.sh now only
    does the `Phase 2` build from upstream source.

Depends on org-ai-assisted/developer-meta-files#92 (which adds
the composite action). This PR\'s CI will pass once #92 merges.

Subject: [PATCH 1688/1790] ci: real stdisplay + PyQt5 + install-deps composite
 action; drop conftest stubs

ci/tests/fm_shim_frontend/conftest.py stubbed two heavy module-level
imports in fm_shim_frontend.fm_shim_frontend to let the property
tests import the URI-validation function without bringing up Qt or
installing the helper-scripts Debian package:

  - stdisplay (helper-scripts Debian package) - identity stub
  - PyQt5.{QtCore,QtGui,QtWidgets,sip} - fake module whose
    __getattr__ synthesizes a fresh type() per name

The file already carried a TODO to remove both: "We can install
helper-scripts before running the tests to get stdisplay, and as
long as the test code paths don't call QApplication(), the crash
during test issue should be avoidable."

This commit does that:

  - local-python-lint.yml switches from apt-install-with-cache to
    the developer-meta-files install-deps composite action, which
    installs apt deps + genmkfile + helper-scripts (the latter
    provides stdisplay). PyQt5 was already in the apt list
    (python3-pyqt5 + python3-pyqt5.sip), so the real Qt classes
    are available now too.

  - conftest.py is deleted. Property tests now run against the
    production modules end-to-end (the QApplication() call only
    fires inside fm_shim_frontend's main(), which the test never
    invokes - it imports get_path_list_from_uris directly).

  - local-dbus-fuzz.yml also switches to install-deps for
    consistency (same composite-action pattern); ci/dfuzzer-build.sh
    header comment updated to point at install-deps instead of
    apt-install-with-cache.

Same shape as the recent msgcollector simplification (PR #21):
let install-deps handle apt + genmkfile + helper-scripts in one
step.

-##   * 'PyQt5' submodules (heavy optional GUI dep): replaced by a

Subject: [PATCH 1689/1790] dependabot.yml: drop docker block (sync to new
 canonical)

The previous canonical at
developer-meta-files/consumer-templates/.github/dependabot.yml
carried a docker package-ecosystem block on the documented theory
that the block was a "harmless no-op" in repos without a
/Dockerfile. That theory was wrong: the dependabot-action errors
with `dependency_file_not_found` and aborts the whole job -
including the github-actions ecosystem run that shares it - so
this repo lost its github-actions Dependabot coverage too.

Sync to the new canonical, which carries github-actions only.

See org-ai-assisted/developer-meta-files PR #105 for the
canonical change and the docker-bearing-repo opt-out mechanism.

+        installs apt deps + genmkfile + helper-scripts (the latter
+        provides stdisplay). PyQt5 was already in the apt list
+        (python3-pyqt5 + python3-pyqt5.sip), so the real Qt classes
+        are available now too.
+
+      - conftest.py is deleted. Property tests now run against the
+        production modules end-to-end (the QApplication() call only
+        fires inside fm_shim_frontend's main(), which the test never
+        invokes - it imports get_path_list_from_uris directly).
+
+      - local-dbus-fuzz.yml also switches to install-deps for
+        consistency (same composite-action pattern); ci/dfuzzer-build.sh
+        header comment updated to point at install-deps instead of
+        apt-install-with-cache.
+
+    Same shape as the recent msgcollector simplification (PR #21):
+    let install-deps handle apt + genmkfile + helper-scripts in one
+    step.

+
+    ci: use apt-install-with-cache composite action; drop broad restore-keys
+
+    Both local-dbus-fuzz.yml and local-python-lint.yml used
+    `path: /var/cache/apt/archives` with `sudo chown -R` on the system
+    dir + a broad `restore-keys:` prefix. Three problems:
+
+    1. Same `tar: partial/: Permission denied` cache-save warning as
+       the developer-meta-files reusables (apt\'s _apt:root 0700
+       partial/ subdir is unreadable by the runner; chown doesn\'t
+       help because apt-get install recreates partial/ 0700 every
+       run).
+
+    2. `restore-keys:` violates agents/github-actions.md G-A-007
+       ("no broad restore-keys, no pull_request_target + cache" -
+       cache-poisoning risk). The cache-key already includes
+       hashFiles() so a config change naturally invalidates;
+       restore-keys would defeat that.
+
+    3. Duplicated `Prepare apt cache directory` + `Cache apt packages`
+       YAML across two workflows.
+
+    Fix: replace those steps with one composite-action call:
+
+      - uses: org-ai-assisted/developer-meta-files/.github/actions/apt-install-with-cache@master
+        with:
+          packages: \'<deps>\'
+          cache-key: ${{ runner.os }}-apt-<tag>-${{ hashFiles(...) }}
+
+    The composite action caches `~/.apt-deb-cache` (runner-owned, no
+    system-dir permission gymnastics) and sudo-copies .debs in/out of
+    /var/cache/apt/archives around apt-get install. apt\'s normal
+    permission model is preserved.
+
+    local-dbus-fuzz.yml additionally:
+
+      - ci/dfuzzer-build.sh is refactored to drop its `Phase 1` apt
+        install. The package list moves into the workflow (passed to
+        the composite action), where it lives alongside the cache key
+        that invalidates on changes. dfuzzer-build.sh now only
+        does the `Phase 2` build from upstream source.
+
+    Depends on org-ai-assisted/developer-meta-files#92 (which adds
+    the composite action). This PR\'s CI will pass once #92 merges.

Expand the two compact case arms to the fully multi-line form per R-070.
The touched file was 4/6 on the R-010 strict-mode block; add the missing
'shopt -s inherit_errexit' and 'shopt -s shift_verbose' so it is fully green.
No behavior change.

Subject: [PATCH 1695/1790] fix(virusforget): skip restore when backup is
 absent

An extraneous file (present in the home directory but absent from the
committed backup) is deleted and then unconditionally passed to
restore_file, which runs `cp` from a backup path that does not exist.
Under `set -e` this aborts the entire `--clean` run on the first such
file, leaving the system partially cleaned -- the exact
malware-persistence scenario the tool exists to handle.

Return early from restore_file when no backup exists. Deleting the
extraneous file is the correct action and is already done by the caller
(which keeps a forensic copy under the dangerous/ folder). The guard is
transparent to the missing-file and modified-file callers, which always
have a backup present.

Subject: [PATCH 1697/1790] fix(ensure-shutdown): apply timeout default under
 nounset

The script runs under 'set -o nounset'. When no config file assigns
ENSURE_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT, the bare "${ENSURE_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT}" in the
fallback guard raises an unbound-variable error and aborts before the
guard can apply the default, so ExecStart never starts the shutdown
monitor. Add the ':-' default in the -z test so the guard runs and
falls back to 30. The sibling emerg-shutdown wrapper avoids this by
pre-initializing its config variables before sourcing.

Subject: [PATCH 1698/1790] fix(emerg-shutdown): close fds for non-panic input
 devices

The input-device enumeration loop opens a descriptor for every
/dev/input/eventN but only stores it for devices that support the
panic-key combo. The two early-continue paths -- non-key devices and
keyboards lacking the panic keys -- returned without closing tmp_fd,
leaking one descriptor per non-qualifying device.

The leak is bounded and one-time (the loop runs once at startup, not in
the poll loop) so impact is low, but the descriptors are held for the
whole process lifetime and never reclaimed -- the daemon never execs,
so O_CLOEXEC does not cover them. Close tmp_fd before both continues.

Subject: [PATCH 1699/1790] fix(emerg-shutdown): swallow SIGSYS in
 signal-ignore loop

max_sig_num is 31, but the SIG_IGN loop used a strict "<" bound, so it
covered signals 1..30 and never touched signal 31 (SIGSYS on Linux).
The real-time loop starts at SIGRTMIN, leaving SIGSYS covered by neither
loop, so it kept its default terminate disposition despite the "Swallow
all signals that we can." intent.

Use "<=" so the loop reaches 31; SIGSYS is ignorable, and the bound
still stops before the glibc-reserved signals 32 and 33. This is a
robustness fix, not a hardening gain: SIGKILL and SIGSTOP are unblockable
anyway, so an actor able to send SIGSYS can already kill the monitor --
the value is surviving an internally generated SIGSYS (e.g. a bad
syscall).

Subject: [PATCH 1700/1790] fix(permission-hardener): prevent fail-open on
 empty matchwhitelist

check_nosuid_whitelist iterated with
"${policy_match_white_list[@]:-}". Under `set -o nounset` the `:-`
default expands an empty array to a single empty-string element, so
the loop ran once with an empty entry. The body test
`[[ "${target_file}" == *""* ]]` matches every string, so the
function returned 1 (whitelisted) for every file. Both callers use
`|| continue`, so an effective config with no `matchwhitelist` line
silently skipped all SUID/SGID hardening with exit 0 -- a fail-open.

Expand with ${arr[@]+"${arr[@]}"} instead, which yields no elements
when the array is empty and does not trip nounset.

Subject: [PATCH 1701/1790] fix(permission-hardener): skip hardlinked files
 instead of aborting

output_stat returned 1 for a non-directory SUID/SGID file with a
hardlink count > 1. The four call sites invoke output_stat as a bare
command under `set -o errexit`, so that return propagated and
terminated the whole run instead of skipping the file. The following
`if [ -z "${file_name_from_stat}" ]` guard never caught this case
because file_name_from_stat was already populated.

The surrounding comment states hardlinked files are meant to be
skipped (scanning a hardlink pool is too costly). Blank the output
vars and return 0, matching the existing nonexistent-file skip path,
so the caller's empty-name check continues past the file. Genuine
error paths (stat failure, parse corruption) still return 1 and fail
loud.

The sysctl config header claimed 5 sections while its list
enumerates 6 (through CD-ROM/DVD); update the count to 6.

The modprobe config's Networking section header read "2.",
duplicating the File Systems section, while its own table of
contents and the following "4. Miscellaneous" section imply 3;
correct it to "3.".

Subject: [PATCH 1703/1790] fix(hide-hardware-info): look up group with getent

The sysfs/cpuinfo whitelist gated its chgrp/chmod on
`grep -q "${1}" /etc/group`, an unanchored substring match over the
whole file. A group whose name merely contains the string, or a user
listed as a member of any group, produced a false positive: the branch
ran chgrp against a group that does not exist (silently swallowed by
`|| true`) and suppressed the "group does not exist" warning, so an
admin who never created the group was told nothing.

Use `getent group "${1}"` instead. It matches by exact group name or
GID and consults NSS, so groups from non-file sources are recognized
as well.

udisks auto-probing removable optical media (sr*) is noisy -- on a drive with no

device: Error sending ATA command IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE to /dev/sr0') -- and is
avoidable attack surface: inserted media should not be auto-processed without

+    udev: mark optical drives UDISKS_IGNORE (quiet + harden)
+
+    udisks auto-probing removable optical media (sr*) is noisy -- on a drive with no
+    or inert media (e.g. a VM CD-ROM) it errors repeatedly ('udisksd: Error probing
+    device: Error sending ATA command IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE to /dev/sr0') -- and is
+    avoidable attack surface: inserted media should not be auto-processed without
+    user action. Add a udev rule marking optical drives UDISKS_IGNORE. This does NOT
+    affect booting the live ISO from optical media: rd.live mounts the medium in the
+    initramfs, not via userspace udisks. (AI-Assisted.)

+
+    Use `getent group "${1}"` instead. It matches by exact group name or

+    docs: correct section numbering in config comments
+
+    The sysctl config header claimed 5 sections while its list
+    enumerates 6 (through CD-ROM/DVD); update the count to 6.
+
+    The modprobe config's Networking section header read "2.",
+    duplicating the File Systems section, while its own table of
+    contents and the following "4. Miscellaneous" section imply 3;
+    correct it to "3.".

+
+    fix(permission-hardener): skip hardlinked files instead of aborting
+
+    output_stat returned 1 for a non-directory SUID/SGID file with a
+    hardlink count > 1. The four call sites invoke output_stat as a bare
+    command under `set -o errexit`, so that return propagated and
+    terminated the whole run instead of skipping the file. The following
+    `if [ -z "${file_name_from_stat}" ]` guard never caught this case
+    because file_name_from_stat was already populated.
+
+    The surrounding comment states hardlinked files are meant to be
+    skipped (scanning a hardlink pool is too costly). Blank the output
+    vars and return 0, matching the existing nonexistent-file skip path,
+    so the caller's empty-name check continues past the file. Genuine
+    error paths (stat failure, parse corruption) still return 1 and fail
+    loud.

+
+    fix(permission-hardener): prevent fail-open on empty matchwhitelist
+
+    check_nosuid_whitelist iterated with
+    "${policy_match_white_list[@]:-}". Under `set -o nounset` the `:-`
+    default expands an empty array to a single empty-string element, so
+    the loop ran once with an empty entry. The body test
+    `[[ "${target_file}" == *""* ]]` matches every string, so the
+    function returned 1 (whitelisted) for every file. Both callers use
+    `|| continue`, so an effective config with no `matchwhitelist` line
+    silently skipped all SUID/SGID hardening with exit 0 -- a fail-open.
+
+    Expand with ${arr[@]+"${arr[@]}"} instead, which yields no elements
+    when the array is empty and does not trip nounset.

+
+    fix(emerg-shutdown): swallow SIGSYS in signal-ignore loop
+
+    max_sig_num is 31, but the SIG_IGN loop used a strict "<" bound, so it
+    covered signals 1..30 and never touched signal 31 (SIGSYS on Linux).
+    The real-time loop starts at SIGRTMIN, leaving SIGSYS covered by neither
+    loop, so it kept its default terminate disposition despite the "Swallow
+    all signals that we can." intent.
+
+    Use "<=" so the loop reaches 31; SIGSYS is ignorable, and the bound
+    still stops before the glibc-reserved signals 32 and 33. This is a
+    robustness fix, not a hardening gain: SIGKILL and SIGSTOP are unblockable
+    anyway, so an actor able to send SIGSYS can already kill the monitor --
+    the value is surviving an internally generated SIGSYS (e.g. a bad
+    syscall).

+
+    fix(emerg-shutdown): close fds for non-panic input devices
+
+    The input-device enumeration loop opens a descriptor for every
+    /dev/input/eventN but only stores it for devices that support the
+    panic-key combo. The two early-continue paths -- non-key devices and
+    keyboards lacking the panic keys -- returned without closing tmp_fd,
+    leaking one descriptor per non-qualifying device.
+
+    The leak is bounded and one-time (the loop runs once at startup, not in
+    the poll loop) so impact is low, but the descriptors are held for the
+    whole process lifetime and never reclaimed -- the daemon never execs,
+    so O_CLOEXEC does not cover them. Close tmp_fd before both continues.

+
+    fix(ensure-shutdown): apply timeout default under nounset
+
+    The script runs under 'set -o nounset'. When no config file assigns
+    ENSURE_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT, the bare "${ENSURE_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT}" in the
+    fallback guard raises an unbound-variable error and aborts before the
+    guard can apply the default, so ExecStart never starts the shutdown
+    monitor. Add the ':-' default in the -z test so the guard runs and
+    falls back to 30. The sibling emerg-shutdown wrapper avoids this by
+    pre-initializing its config variables before sourcing.

+
+    The nonexistent-user branch printed a warning but, unlike every sibling

+
+    fix(virusforget): skip restore when backup is absent
+
+    An extraneous file (present in the home directory but absent from the
+    committed backup) is deleted and then unconditionally passed to
+    restore_file, which runs `cp` from a backup path that does not exist.
+    Under `set -e` this aborts the entire `--clean` run on the first such
+    file, leaving the system partially cleaned -- the exact
+    malware-persistence scenario the tool exists to handle.
+
+    Return early from restore_file when no backup exists. Deleting the
+    extraneous file is the correct action and is already done by the caller
+    (which keeps a forensic copy under the dangerous/ folder). The guard is
+    transparent to the missing-file and modified-file callers, which always
+    have a backup present.

 faillock.conf lacks it

When /etc/security/faillock.conf has no uncommented "deny =" line
(commented out, or written without spaces), the parse overwrites the
deny=3 default with an empty string. The empty value slips past the
[[ "$deny" == *[!0-9]* ]] numeric guard, then evaluates to 0 in the
remaining-attempts arithmetic, producing a false "Login blocked, boot
into recovery mode" message for users still well below the threshold.

Fall back to the documented default of 3 when the parse yields empty.

Subject: [PATCH 1719/1790] consumer-claude-code: mention-only triggers
 (propagated from template)

Byte-identical cp from developer-meta-files/consumer-templates.

pull_request and workflow_dispatch resolve to claude-code-action's
agent mode, whose trigger is a non-empty 'prompt' input that this
workflow does not pass, so those events could only spin up a runner
and exit without calling the model - a green "Claude Code Review"
check that reviewed nothing.

Subject: [PATCH 1720/1790] fix(remove-system.map): continue past undeletable
 files

The deletion loop called `exit 0` on the first System.map that `[ -w ]`
rejected, so copies in later locations were never shredded. Where
`[ -w ]` passed but shred failed anyway, shred ran as a bare command and
tripped the ERR trap that pre.bsh installs, aborting with a "## Please
report this bug!" banner and exit 1.

Branch on shred's exit status instead of `[ -w ]`, which does not
predict removability. Unlinking depends on write permission on the
parent directory rather than on the file itself, and an append-only file
passes the test yet cannot be unlinked at all. For a full-capability
root process the check is also true on a mode 444 file, so it only ever
failed on read-only file systems and on files carrying the immutable
attribute.

Clear the immutable and append-only attributes before each attempt. Per
review, a System.map should never be immutable and `chattr +i` would
possibly complicate kernel package removal; append-only is cleared on
the same grounds, since it blocks removal without affecting `[ -w ]`.

Report the files that remain once at the end, under a single wiki link
rather than repeating it on every line, and withhold "Done. Success."
when anything failed. A file reachable under two names, such as
/lib/modules/<version>/build and the source symlink beside it, is listed
under each, since both matched and both failed.

Iterate an array rather than word-splitting a string with IFS, which a
/etc/remove-system.map_pre.d drop-in can set; under `IFS=:` the globs
matched nothing, so the script deleted nothing and still exited 0.

The removal loop no longer exits early on failure and the script ends in
an explicit `exit 0`; a non-zero status would fail the kernel package's
postinst hook and the oneshot unit on every boot.

Subject: [PATCH 1721/1790] fix(pam): pass profile names to pam-auth-update
 --remove

'pam-auth-update --remove' matches pam-config filenames under
/usr/share/pam-configs/, but prerm and postrm passed
$DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE -- the package name security-misc-shared --
which matches no profile. An unknown target is stored without
validation and simply never matches, so the --remove was inert in
both calls: the prerm call was an effective no-op, while the postrm
call still performed a plain reconciliation.

The prerm early-disable was therefore dead. On removal
/etc/pam.d/common-* kept referencing helper scripts under
/usr/libexec/security-misc/ that dpkg then deleted;
block-unsafe-logins is a Priority 1100 'requisite' entry, so a
dangling reference fails all authentication until postrm's
reconciliation regenerates common-* -- permanently, if postrm fails
before that point.

prerm now passes the eight profile filenames explicitly. postrm
drops the ineffective '--remove <package>' for a plain
reconciliation and guards it with 'command -v': Debian Policy 7.2
gives no guarantee that dependencies are available when postrm runs
and requires postrm to gracefully skip such actions, and an absent
pam-auth-update would abort the script under 'set -e'. prerm stays
unguarded: Policy names Depends (here libpam-runtime) as the
mechanism prerm scripts rely on, dependencies there normally being
at least unpacked.

One consequence of a '--remove' that now takes effect: it also drops
the eight names from /var/lib/pam/seen. If a removal is aborted,
postinst's 'pam-auth-update --package' re-enables the seven
'Default: yes' profiles among them, including any of them an
administrator had deliberately disabled (other packages' profiles
remain in seen and are unaffected), while
console-lockdown-security-misc ('Default: no') stays off until an
administrator re-enables it -- reinstalling does not restore it,
since preinst's enable is behind a do_once stamp. Both are new
relative to the previous inert behavior.

 template

Byte-identical to developer-meta-files consumer-templates.

The github.ref comment was wrong for one of the two events it described:
issue_comment fires with the default branch ref, pull_request_review_comment
with the PR merge ref (refs/pull/<number>/merge). No behaviour change -- the
concurrency group reaches github.ref only if neither number field is set, and
one always is for the events this workflow accepts.

Subject: [PATCH 1723/1790] ci: gate the local workflows on
 CI_ENABLED_ORG_AI_ASSISTED

Our workflows ran wherever the branch landed. Merged upstream they burn
Kicksecure/Whonix runner quota and post our CI into repos that never
asked for it; on a contributor fork they run the whole suite unbidden.
Only 5 of 136 workflow files across the fleet carried any owner gate.

Gate: a job-level `vars.CI_ENABLED_ORG_AI_ASSISTED == 'true'`, set once
as an organization variable on org-ai-assisted. Zero runner cost -- a job
whose `if:` is false never allocates one -- and the run still reports
green, so upstream and forks are not handed a red X for a lane they did
not opt into. A fork that WANTS the lane sets the same variable in its
own repo; no patch to these files, no fork of our workflows.

ANDed in front of any existing fork-PR guard rather than replacing it.

Verified: the workflow-yaml validator reports 0 findings for this repo.

+
+    ci: gate the local workflows on CI_ENABLED_ORG_AI_ASSISTED
+
+    Our workflows ran wherever the branch landed. Merged upstream they burn
+    Kicksecure/Whonix runner quota and post our CI into repos that never
+    asked for it; on a contributor fork they run the whole suite unbidden.
+    Only 5 of 136 workflow files across the fleet carried any owner gate.
+
+    Gate: a job-level `vars.CI_ENABLED_ORG_AI_ASSISTED == 'true'`, set once
+    as an organization variable on org-ai-assisted. Zero runner cost -- a job
+    whose `if:` is false never allocates one -- and the run still reports
+    green, so upstream and forks are not handed a red X for a lane they did
+    not opt into. A fork that WANTS the lane sets the same variable in its
+    own repo; no patch to these files, no fork of our workflows.
+
+    ANDed in front of any existing fork-PR guard rather than replacing it.
+
+    Verified: the workflow-yaml validator reports 0 findings for this repo.
+
+    Generated with assistance from Claude Code.

Subject: [PATCH 1726/1790] security-misc: R-010 strict for the module-disabled
 alert scripts

The thirteen disabled-*-by-security-misc scripts are near-identical: they
warn that a kernel module was blocked and exit 1. Add the strict preamble
and convert echo -> printf (R-034).

The '$@' inside the message becomes '$*' deliberately. Under printf,
"...$@" expands to one argument per positional parameter, so a multi-word
invocation would print one word per line; '$*' joins with spaces, which is
what echo did.

Sandbox differential vs the pre-change scripts: all thirteen byte-identical
in output and still exit 1.

Subject: [PATCH 1727/1790] security-misc: R-010 strict for the PAM helpers,
 preserving exit codes

These four scripts are invoked by pam_exec and their EXIT CODE is the
security decision: the PAM stacks use '[success=1 default=ignore]', so the
code selects whether the next module runs. Strict mode must not perturb it.

PAM_SERVICE and PAM_USER come from pam_exec's environment. Read bare under
nounset they abort the script with a NONZERO status, which PAM then reads
as a control-flow decision. Each is now read as '${VAR:-}', which
reproduces today's semantics exactly (an unset value falls through to the
same branch it already took).

pam-abort-on-locked-password was the sharp case. It documents "identifiable
exit codes in case stdout / stderr is not logged in journal"; with PAM_USER
absent it returned 3 ("user does not exist"), and a bare read turned that
into 1. Verified restored.

Exit-code matrix, old vs new, all matching:
  PAM_SERVICE=login  -> pam_only_if_login 1, pam_only_if_su 0
  PAM_SERVICE=su     -> pam_only_if_login 0, pam_only_if_su 1
  PAM_SERVICE=sshd   -> both 0
  PAM_SERVICE empty  -> both 0
  PAM_SERVICE absent -> pam_only_if_login 0, pam_only_if_su 0,
                        pam_faillock_not_if_x 1
  PAM_USER root / nonexistent / absent -> pam-abort 3 in every case

Subject: [PATCH 1728/1790] security-misc: R-010 strict for the remaining
 standalone scripts

Covers the eleven remaining standalones, plus the whole-file debt the gate
surfaces on each: echo -> printf (R-034), 'has' instead of 'command -v'
(R-090, sourcing has.sh -- security-misc-shared already Depends on
helper-scripts), safe-rm (R-120), SC2250 braces.

permission-lockdown needed care. Its loop chmods every home directory and
records a state file per user, and it tolerated per-user failures: a
directory it could not chmod did not stop the ones after it. Under errexit
the first failure aborted the whole loop, so every remaining home directory
silently stayed un-locked-down -- observed in the sandbox as 1 user
processed instead of 11, and the script exiting 1 rather than 0. The two
per-user operations are now explicitly best-effort, restoring the original
behaviour (including that a failed chmod still records the state file --
arguably wrong, but changing it is not this pass's business).

mmap-rnd-bits keeps its 'ls -1 -t /boot/config-* | head -n 1' with a
reasoned SC2012 disable: kernel config filenames carry no spaces or
newlines, so the parsing hazard is unreachable, and rewriting newest-file
detection in a security package is risk without gain.

Not touched, deliberately: the dracut modules under
usr/lib/dracut/modules.d*. 'module-setup.sh' is SOURCED by dracut at
initramfs build time, and remount-secure.sh is installed with 'inst_hook'
and SOURCED by dracut-lib at BOOT. A strict-mode block in either runs in
dracut's own shell; in the boot case that risks an unbootable system.

Sandbox differential vs the pre-change scripts, comparing output AND exit
code: 36 cases identical. The only two remaining deltas are 'set -x' traces
of the preamble and of echo -> printf, both at unchanged exit codes.

Subject: [PATCH 1729/1790] fix shellcheck directives for an isolated CI
 checkout

The gate passed locally but failed (or would fail) in CI. Cause: CI checks
each repo out ALONE, while locally they sit side by side as submodules
under derivative-maker/packages. A '# shellcheck source=' climbing out of
the repo ('../../../../helper-scripts/...') therefore resolves here and
not there, so shellcheck reports SC1091 and the gate fails on a commit
that looked clean.

The source= paths are kept -- they document where the file actually lives
-- and each is paired with a 'disable=SC1091' so an absent sibling is
tolerated. Same shape already used in security-misc master.

Follow-on findings from the same isolated run, each with a stated reason
rather than a blanket waiver:
- SC2154 on systemd_notify: assigned by the sourced systemd-notify.bsh,
  which shellcheck can no longer follow.
- SC2034 on SCRIPTNAME and output_cmd: genuinely unused. suspend-pre's
  output_cmd toggle is vestigial -- unlike suspend-post the script prints
  directly -- flagged rather than removed, since wiring it up or dropping
  it is a maintainer call.
- SC1090 on the uwt.d conf glob: a dynamic source, which R-081 prescribes
  SC1090 for.

Verified with a new reproducer, ~/strict-pass-tests/ci-repro.sh, which
clones the repo on its own and runs the real gate there -- the condition
CI actually sees. All six repos: gate exit 0.

Subject: [PATCH 1731/1790] Drain input in USB-controller and config-file
 lookups

check-for-usb-controller: grep --quiet exits on the first match and closes
the pipe, sending SIGPIPE to lspci. Under pipefail the pipeline then reports
141, so the guarding if takes the false branch even when a USB controller is
present. Let grep read the whole stream and redirect to /dev/null instead.

mmap-rnd-bits: head -n 1 has the same early-close hazard against ls; use
sed -n '1p', which consumes all input, for consistency. Drop the redundant
duplicate set -euo pipefail line already covered by the long-form preamble.

Subject: [PATCH 1732/1790] security-misc: permission-hardener parse filenames
 with spaces

- load_state() split config lines on every space, so any entry whose
  filename contains a space was mis-fielded: silently skipped (a SUID
  binary left un-hardened) or mapped to a corrupted policy entry.
- Recover the filename by parsing options from the right -- a trailing
  whitelist keyword, or the mode/owner/group[/capability] tail anchored
  by the octal mode. Space-free lines unchanged.
- Add regression test (drives the real script via print-policy) plus its
  CI workflow. Canary-verified: fails on the pre-fix parser, passes now.
- Bring the file to strict-mode / shellcheck compliance as required to
  touch it (6-directive block, printf, braces).

Subject: [PATCH 1733/1790] security-misc: compile emerg-shutdown once at
 postinst, not every boot

- emerg-shutdown.c was recompiled into /run on every boot. Move the
  compile to a standalone build-emerg-shutdown run from postinst, which
  installs /usr/bin/emerg-shutdown. Compiling on-target keeps the package
  Architecture: all while still producing a correct per-arch static binary.
- Boot-time emerg-shutdown now just copies /usr/bin/emerg-shutdown into
  /run (memlockd-resident), with a fallback build if the binary is absent.
- dracut module ships /usr/bin/emerg-shutdown (exists right after install,
  fixing the require_binaries /run chicken-and-egg).
- Sandbox-verified: build-emerg-shutdown produces a static ELF in /usr/bin.
- Strict/style compliance on the touched scripts (waivers for the debconf
  maintainer script and the dracut-sourced module).

Subject: [PATCH 1734/1790] security-misc: silence expected pam_exec journal
 noise via quiet_log

- The [success=1 default=ignore] pam_exec lines run helper scripts that
  exit 1 on their expected control-flow path, emitting an alarming
  'pam_exec(...): ... failed: exit code 1' journal line. Plain 'quiet'
  suppresses only the user-facing message, not the log.
- Add 'quiet_log' (linux-pam >= 1.5.2, present on bookworm+) to every
  skip-logic pam_exec line (console-lockdown, unix-faillock,
  faillock-preauth, wheel), leaving the control flow byte-identical.
- Update the scripts' comments to point at the resolution.

Note: not verified on a live login journal (needs a real PAM stack);
the change is additive and semantics-preserving regardless.

Subject: [PATCH 1735/1790] security-misc: fm-shim frontend calls xdg-mime/gio
 by absolute path

- fm-shim-frontend invoked xdg-mime and gio by bare name, depending on
  the systemd --user manager's PATH (minimal, profile-derived entries
  absent) that fm-shim-backend hands it. Use /usr/bin/xdg-mime and
  /usr/bin/gio, matching the existing /usr/bin/unicode-show call.
- Reword the backend TODO: the whole-session PATH fix belongs in
  desktop-config-dist's start-lxqt-session (out of this repo); the
  frontend absolute-path change is the in-repo mitigation.

Subject: [PATCH 1736/1790] security-misc: document whitelisted SUID/SGID
 helpers, flag human-only

- Replace the bare 'TODO: research' markers on the permission-hardener
  whitelist entries (postfix, selinux/utempter, spice, virtualbox,
  qubes/qfile-unpacker, pam-tmpdir-helper, gst-ptp-helper) with concise
  documentation: what each helper is, why it is SUID/SGID, what breaks if
  stripped, and relevant CVE/hardening notes.
- Retag the keep-vs-strip decisions TODO-HUMAN-DEVELOPER-ONLY -- a
  security-trust call for a human maintainer, not AI-resolvable.
- 30_default.conf: fix the commented gst-ptp-helper path typo
  (gstreamer1.0/grstreamer-1.0 -> gstreamer-1.0/gstreamer-1.0); note that
  filenames with spaces are now parsed.

Subject: [PATCH 1737/1790] security-misc: dfuzzer commit pin, marker rewords,
 remount-secure cleanup

- ci/dfuzzer-build.sh: pin dfuzzer to the exact upstream commit and
  verify the tag resolves to it (a moved tag now fails loudly).
- grub 40_kernel_hardening + remount-secure hidepid: reword standing
  'TODO' notes to 'REMINDER' (tracking, not pending work).
- remount-secure: replace the echo/true toggle with a printf-array
  output helper; bring the file to strict-mode / shellcheck compliance
  (6-directive block, braces) as required to touch it.

Subject: [PATCH 1738/1790] security-misc: declare bash (>= 4.4) for
 inherit_errexit

- Many scripts use 'shopt -s inherit_errexit' (bash 4.4+) in their
  strict-mode preamble; ${misc:Depends} does not supply the baseline, so
  an older /bin/bash would die in the preamble before the script's logic.

Subject: [PATCH 1739/1790] security-misc: fix undo chown empty-arg + emerg
 fallback (ai-review)

- undo_policy_for_file: the strict-mode brace pass quoted "${verbose}",
  so 'permission-hardener disable all' ran 'chown "" -- ...' (invalid
  empty owner) and 'chmod "" ...'. Make verbose an array so an empty
  value expands to zero arguments. Canary-verified.
- emerg-shutdown fallback: when the prebuilt binary is absent, compile
  straight into /run (tmpfs, writable even if /usr is read-only) rather
  than via build-emerg-shutdown into /usr/bin.
- Document the space-filename parser limitations (consecutive spaces
  collapse; an octal-looking path chunk can misanchor -> entry skipped).

Subject: [PATCH 1740/1790] security-misc: drop versioned bash dependency

- Revert the bash (>= 4.4) Depends. Supported Debian (trixie+) always
  ships bash >= 4.4 and earlier is unsupported, so the inherit_errexit
  builtin is always present; the dependency adds nothing. Policy bans it
  (bash-style-guide R-010b).

Subject: [PATCH 1741/1790] permission-hardener: anchor mode tail from the
 right for spaced filenames

- Space filenames are recovered from the option tail; the mode/owner/group
  [/capability] tail has a fixed width (3 or 4 fields).
- Old left-to-right octal scan misanchored when a space-delimited filename
  chunk was itself a bare octal (e.g. '/path/a 744 name 0744 root root'): the
  field-count check then failed and the WHOLE hardener aborted (exit 200),
  contradicting the comment that claimed such a line was skipped.
- Anchor the mode from the right (field_count-3, else field_count-4); prefer
  the 3-field reading so a filename ending in an octal chunk is not mistaken
  for a 4-field capability tail.
- Regression test: config line with a bare-octal filename chunk must parse via
  print-policy; fails on the old code (exit 200 / entry missing).

- 25_default_whitelist_qubes.conf: the #8633 EoP fix is qfile-unpacker
  (qubes-core-agent-linux) refusing a UID change other than the caller's;
  libqubes-pure path/symlink sanitization (qubes-linux-utils PR #87) is a
  separate layer. The comment credited only PR #87.

Subject: [PATCH 1743/1790] permission-hardener: fix disable-all directive +
 numeric-owner misparse

Both surfaced by a fresh-claude review of the right-anchor change.

- whitelists_disable_all=true was unreachable: the character-class check (which
  excludes '=') ran before the directive check, so the documented line tripped
  "invalid characters" and aborted the whole run (exit 200). Recognize the
  directive first.
- Numeric octal-looking owner in a capability entry (e.g. '<f> 0744 0755 root
  cap'): right-anchoring folded the owner into the mode position, the folded
  path did not exist, and the entry was silently dropped -- file left
  un-hardened. Skip recovery when the line is already a well-formed no-space
  entry (octal mode at field 1, count 4 or 5).
- Correct the stale field-order comment: the tail is
  'filemode user_owner group_owner [capability]', mode first (per add_to_policy).
- Regression tests: numeric-owner case in the whitespace test; new
  test_whitelists_disable_all.sh. Both fail on the pre-fix code.

Subject: [PATCH 1744/1790] permission-hardener: disambiguate octal-ambiguous
 entries by file existence

Fresh-claude review found the earlier field-1 guard reintroduced a symmetric
misparse: a spaced filename whose second component is a bare octal (e.g.
'/srv/a 744 0644 root root') got dropped because the guard mistook the octal
component for the mode.

The 5-field reading is genuinely ambiguous lexically -- '/a 744 0644 root root'
(spaced name) vs '/foo 0744 1000 root cap' (numeric owner). Resolve by which
candidate filename exists on disk, consistent with the tool skipping
nonexistent targets. Keep the no-recovery reading only when field 1 is an octal
mode and only the un-recovered name exists.

- Replace the lexical guard with the existence check inside the right-anchor
  branch; the whitelist-keyword branch is no longer gated (it was wrongly
  skipped for '/x 744 y matchwhitelist').
- Regression test: spaced octal-second-component case; the assertion now matches
  the whole first column (trailing TAB) so '/a 744' cannot substring-match the
  '/a 744 name' entry.

Subject: [PATCH 1745/1790] permission-hardener: unify mode anchoring across
 all field widths

Fresh-claude follow-up: the field_count==4/5 existence override did not cover a
6-field line (spaced filename + numeric octal-looking owner + capability), which
anchored the mode on the owner and silently dropped the entry. No hardening
bypass -- numeric owners are rejected later against passwd names -- but a silent
drop instead of a loud rejection, and the ==4 disjunct was dead code.

Replace the special-case override with one existence-based loop: among the octal
candidates at field_count-3 and field_count-4, pick the one whose recovered
filename exists; a mode at field 1 means no-space (no recovery); fall back to
the rightmost octal candidate when neither name exists. Handles the 3-field,
4-field, spaced, numeric-owner and 6-field cases uniformly.

- Regression test: 6-field spaced numeric-owner case; the suite now
  distinguishes this fix from all three prior parser iterations.

Subject: [PATCH 1746/1790] permission-hardener: read spaced paths back from
 the state DB

Fresh-claude review of the whitespace feature found the write/read sides
disagree: parsing now accepts space-containing filenames into the policy, but
load_state_without_policy split the dpkg-statoverride DB line on whitespace and
required exactly 4 fields, silently dropping any spaced path. A spaced SUID file
then got hardened but could never be un-hardened ('disable' never found it), and
repeated 'enable' failed with exit 203.

- Read the three fixed fields (owner group mode) and take the remainder as the
  path, matching the DB's 'owner group mode path' format.
- Regression test test_state_spaced_filename.sh: seed a spaced entry, disable,
  assert the mode is restored (fails on the old reader: file stays un-restored).
- Test hygiene: print-policy captures modes into the state DB, so the two
  print-policy tests now remove the entries they create instead of leaving stale
  root-owned overrides for deleted temp files.

+
+    fix shellcheck directives for an isolated CI checkout
+
+    The gate passed locally but failed (or would fail) in CI. Cause: CI checks
+    each repo out ALONE, while locally they sit side by side as submodules
+    under derivative-maker/packages. A '# shellcheck source=' climbing out of
+    the repo ('../../../../helper-scripts/...') therefore resolves here and
+    not there, so shellcheck reports SC1091 and the gate fails on a commit
+    that looked clean.
+
+    The source= paths are kept -- they document where the file actually lives
+    -- and each is paired with a 'disable=SC1091' so an absent sibling is
+    tolerated. Same shape already used in security-misc master.
+
+    Follow-on findings from the same isolated run, each with a stated reason
+    rather than a blanket waiver:
+    - SC2154 on systemd_notify: assigned by the sourced systemd-notify.bsh,
+      which shellcheck can no longer follow.
+    - SC2034 on SCRIPTNAME and output_cmd: genuinely unused. suspend-pre's
+      output_cmd toggle is vestigial -- unlike suspend-post the script prints
+      directly -- flagged rather than removed, since wiring it up or dropping
+      it is a maintainer call.
+    - SC1090 on the uwt.d conf glob: a dynamic source, which R-081 prescribes
+      SC1090 for.
+
+    Verified with a new reproducer, ~/strict-pass-tests/ci-repro.sh, which
+    clones the repo on its own and runs the real gate there -- the condition
+    CI actually sees. All six repos: gate exit 0.

+
+    security-misc: R-010 strict for the remaining standalone scripts
+
+    Covers the eleven remaining standalones, plus the whole-file debt the gate
+    surfaces on each: echo -> printf (R-034), 'has' instead of 'command -v'
+    (R-090, sourcing has.sh -- security-misc-shared already Depends on
+    helper-scripts), safe-rm (R-120), SC2250 braces.
+
+    permission-lockdown needed care. Its loop chmods every home directory and
+    records a state file per user, and it tolerated per-user failures: a
+    directory it could not chmod did not stop the ones after it. Under errexit
+    the first failure aborted the whole loop, so every remaining home directory
+    silently stayed un-locked-down -- observed in the sandbox as 1 user
+    processed instead of 11, and the script exiting 1 rather than 0. The two
+    per-user operations are now explicitly best-effort, restoring the original
+    behaviour (including that a failed chmod still records the state file --
+    arguably wrong, but changing it is not this pass's business).
+
+    mmap-rnd-bits keeps its 'ls -1 -t /boot/config-* | head -n 1' with a
+    reasoned SC2012 disable: kernel config filenames carry no spaces or
+    newlines, so the parsing hazard is unreachable, and rewriting newest-file
+    detection in a security package is risk without gain.
+
+    Not touched, deliberately: the dracut modules under
+    usr/lib/dracut/modules.d*. 'module-setup.sh' is SOURCED by dracut at
+    initramfs build time, and remount-secure.sh is installed with 'inst_hook'
+    and SOURCED by dracut-lib at BOOT. A strict-mode block in either runs in
+    dracut's own shell; in the boot case that risks an unbootable system.
+
+    Sandbox differential vs the pre-change scripts, comparing output AND exit
+    code: 36 cases identical. The only two remaining deltas are 'set -x' traces
+    of the preamble and of echo -> printf, both at unchanged exit codes.

+
+    security-misc: R-010 strict for the PAM helpers, preserving exit codes
+
+    These four scripts are invoked by pam_exec and their EXIT CODE is the
+    security decision: the PAM stacks use '[success=1 default=ignore]', so the
+    code selects whether the next module runs. Strict mode must not perturb it.
+
+    PAM_SERVICE and PAM_USER come from pam_exec's environment. Read bare under
+    nounset they abort the script with a NONZERO status, which PAM then reads
+    as a control-flow decision. Each is now read as '${VAR:-}', which
+    reproduces today's semantics exactly (an unset value falls through to the
+    same branch it already took).
+
+    pam-abort-on-locked-password was the sharp case. It documents "identifiable
+    exit codes in case stdout / stderr is not logged in journal"; with PAM_USER
+    absent it returned 3 ("user does not exist"), and a bare read turned that
+    into 1. Verified restored.
+
+    Exit-code matrix, old vs new, all matching:
+      PAM_SERVICE=login  -> pam_only_if_login 1, pam_only_if_su 0
+      PAM_SERVICE=su     -> pam_only_if_login 0, pam_only_if_su 1

+
+    security-misc: R-010 strict for the module-disabled alert scripts
+
+    The thirteen disabled-*-by-security-misc scripts are near-identical: they
+    warn that a kernel module was blocked and exit 1. Add the strict preamble
+    and convert echo -> printf (R-034).
+
+    The '$@' inside the message becomes '$*' deliberately. Under printf,
+    "...$@" expands to one argument per positional parameter, so a multi-word
+    invocation would print one word per line; '$*' joins with spaces, which is
+    what echo did.
+
+    Sandbox differential vs the pre-change scripts: all thirteen byte-identical
+    in output and still exit 1.

+    CI: propagate codeql-actions + secrets-audit consumer workflows
+
+    Byte-identical propagation from developer-meta-files
+    consumer-templates. Closes scanner-coverage gaps
+    (bandit already present):
+
+    - consumer-codeql-actions.yml: CodeQL 'actions' language --
+      workflow-YAML security analysis (script-injection, missing
+      permissions, unpinned actions).
+    - consumer-secrets-audit.yml: manual-dispatch secrets surface
+      audit (presence flags only, values never emitted).
+
+    Managed files -- do not hand-edit; regenerated on the next
+    propagation pass.

+    consumer-claude-code: propagate the corrected template
+
+    Byte-identical to developer-meta-files consumer-templates.
+
+    The github.ref comment was wrong for one of the two events it described:
+    issue_comment fires with the default branch ref, pull_request_review_comment
+    with the PR merge ref (refs/pull/<number>/merge). No behaviour change -- the
+    concurrency group reaches github.ref only if neither number field is set, and
+    one always is for the events this workflow accepts.

Subject: [PATCH 1748/1790] security-misc: source helper-scripts via
 HELPER_SCRIPTS_PATH, drop SC1091 disable

- check-for-usb-controller, permission-hardener, lkrg-virtualbox: use
  source "${HELPER_SCRIPTS_PATH:-}"/usr/libexec/helper-scripts/<f>;
  drop the dead '# shellcheck disable=SC1091' and the stale sibling note.
- completed pre-existing whole-file style debt: R-010 export LC_ALL=C in
  the strict-mode block (dropping the duplicate single-quoted mid-file one).

The postinst uses long-form 'set -o errexit' (style R-013); lintian's
scripts check only matches short 'set -e'. Add the false-positive
override to the package's own usr/share/lintian/overrides file -- a
separate debian/*.lintian-overrides displaces it (dh_lintian installs to
the same path), losing the etc-skel and other overrides it carries.

+    lintian: override maintainer-script-ignores-errors in the shipped file
+
+    The postinst uses long-form 'set -o errexit' (style R-013); lintian's
+    scripts check only matches short 'set -e'. Add the false-positive
+    override to the package's own usr/share/lintian/overrides file -- a
+    separate debian/*.lintian-overrides displaces it (dh_lintian installs to
+    the same path), losing the etc-skel and other overrides it carries.

+    permission-hardener: read spaced paths back from the state DB
+
+    Fresh-claude review of the whitespace feature found the write/read sides
+    disagree: parsing now accepts space-containing filenames into the policy, but
+    load_state_without_policy split the dpkg-statoverride DB line on whitespace and
+    required exactly 4 fields, silently dropping any spaced path. A spaced SUID file
+    then got hardened but could never be un-hardened ('disable' never found it), and
+    repeated 'enable' failed with exit 203.
+
+    - Read the three fixed fields (owner group mode) and take the remainder as the
+      path, matching the DB's 'owner group mode path' format.
+    - Regression test test_state_spaced_filename.sh: seed a spaced entry, disable,
+      assert the mode is restored (fails on the old reader: file stays un-restored).
+    - Test hygiene: print-policy captures modes into the state DB, so the two
+      print-policy tests now remove the entries they create instead of leaving stale
+      root-owned overrides for deleted temp files.

+
+    permission-hardener: unify mode anchoring across all field widths
+
+    Fresh-claude follow-up: the field_count==4/5 existence override did not cover a
+    6-field line (spaced filename + numeric octal-looking owner + capability), which
+    anchored the mode on the owner and silently dropped the entry. No hardening
+    bypass -- numeric owners are rejected later against passwd names -- but a silent
+    drop instead of a loud rejection, and the ==4 disjunct was dead code.
+
+    Replace the special-case override with one existence-based loop: among the octal
+    candidates at field_count-3 and field_count-4, pick the one whose recovered
+    filename exists; a mode at field 1 means no-space (no recovery); fall back to
+    the rightmost octal candidate when neither name exists. Handles the 3-field,
+    4-field, spaced, numeric-owner and 6-field cases uniformly.
+
+    - Regression test: 6-field spaced numeric-owner case; the suite now
+      distinguishes this fix from all three prior parser iterations.

+
+    permission-hardener: disambiguate octal-ambiguous entries by file existence
+
+    Fresh-claude review found the earlier field-1 guard reintroduced a symmetric
+    misparse: a spaced filename whose second component is a bare octal (e.g.
+    '/srv/a 744 0644 root root') got dropped because the guard mistook the octal
+    component for the mode.
+
+    The 5-field reading is genuinely ambiguous lexically -- '/a 744 0644 root root'
+    (spaced name) vs '/foo 0744 1000 root cap' (numeric owner). Resolve by which
+    candidate filename exists on disk, consistent with the tool skipping
+    nonexistent targets. Keep the no-recovery reading only when field 1 is an octal
+    mode and only the un-recovered name exists.
+
+    - Replace the lexical guard with the existence check inside the right-anchor
+      branch; the whitelist-keyword branch is no longer gated (it was wrongly
+      skipped for '/x 744 y matchwhitelist').
+    - Regression test: spaced octal-second-component case; the assertion now matches
+      the whole first column (trailing TAB) so '/a 744' cannot substring-match the
+      '/a 744 name' entry.

+
+    permission-hardener: fix disable-all directive + numeric-owner misparse
+
+    Both surfaced by a fresh-claude review of the right-anchor change.
+
+    - whitelists_disable_all=true was unreachable: the character-class check (which
+      excludes '=') ran before the directive check, so the documented line tripped
+      "invalid characters" and aborted the whole run (exit 200). Recognize the
+      directive first.
+    - Numeric octal-looking owner in a capability entry (e.g. '<f> 0744 0755 root
+      cap'): right-anchoring folded the owner into the mode position, the folded
+      path did not exist, and the entry was silently dropped -- file left
+      un-hardened. Skip recovery when the line is already a well-formed no-space
+      entry (octal mode at field 1, count 4 or 5).
+    - Correct the stale field-order comment: the tail is
+      'filemode user_owner group_owner [capability]', mode first (per add_to_policy).
+    - Regression tests: numeric-owner case in the whitespace test; new
+      test_whitelists_disable_all.sh. Both fail on the pre-fix code.

+
+    permission-hardener: anchor mode tail from the right for spaced filenames
+
+    - Space filenames are recovered from the option tail; the mode/owner/group
+      [/capability] tail has a fixed width (3 or 4 fields).
+    - Old left-to-right octal scan misanchored when a space-delimited filename
+      chunk was itself a bare octal (e.g. '/path/a 744 name 0744 root root'): the
+      field-count check then failed and the WHOLE hardener aborted (exit 200),
+      contradicting the comment that claimed such a line was skipped.
+    - Anchor the mode from the right (field_count-3, else field_count-4); prefer
+      the 3-field reading so a filename ending in an octal chunk is not mistaken
+      for a 4-field capability tail.
+    - Regression test: config line with a bare-octal filename chunk must parse via
+      print-policy; fails on the old code (exit 200 / entry missing).

+    security-misc: fix undo chown empty-arg + emerg fallback (ai-review)
+
+    - undo_policy_for_file: the strict-mode brace pass quoted "${verbose}",

+    security-misc: fm-shim frontend calls xdg-mime/gio by absolute path
+
+    - fm-shim-frontend invoked xdg-mime and gio by bare name, depending on
+      the systemd --user manager's PATH (minimal, profile-derived entries
+      absent) that fm-shim-backend hands it. Use /usr/bin/xdg-mime and
+      /usr/bin/gio, matching the existing /usr/bin/unicode-show call.
+    - Reword the backend TODO: the whole-session PATH fix belongs in
+      desktop-config-dist's start-lxqt-session (out of this repo); the
+      frontend absolute-path change is the in-repo mitigation.

+    security-misc: silence expected pam_exec journal noise via quiet_log
+
+    - The [success=1 default=ignore] pam_exec lines run helper scripts that
+      exit 1 on their expected control-flow path, emitting an alarming
+      'pam_exec(...): ... failed: exit code 1' journal line. Plain 'quiet'
+      suppresses only the user-facing message, not the log.
+    - Add 'quiet_log' (linux-pam >= 1.5.2, present on bookworm+) to every
+      skip-logic pam_exec line (console-lockdown, unix-faillock,
+      faillock-preauth, wheel), leaving the control flow byte-identical.
+    - Update the scripts' comments to point at the resolution.
+
+    Note: not verified on a live login journal (needs a real PAM stack);
+    the change is additive and semantics-preserving regardless.

+    security-misc: compile emerg-shutdown once at postinst, not every boot
+
+    - emerg-shutdown.c was recompiled into /run on every boot. Move the
+      compile to a standalone build-emerg-shutdown run from postinst, which
+      installs /usr/bin/emerg-shutdown. Compiling on-target keeps the package
+      Architecture: all while still producing a correct per-arch static binary.
+    - Boot-time emerg-shutdown now just copies /usr/bin/emerg-shutdown into
+      /run (memlockd-resident), with a fallback build if the binary is absent.
+    - dracut module ships /usr/bin/emerg-shutdown (exists right after install,
+      fixing the require_binaries /run chicken-and-egg).
+    - Sandbox-verified: build-emerg-shutdown produces a static ELF in /usr/bin.
+    - Strict/style compliance on the touched scripts (waivers for the debconf
+      maintainer script and the dracut-sourced module).

+    security-misc: permission-hardener parse filenames with spaces
+
+    - load_state() split config lines on every space, so any entry whose
+      filename contains a space was mis-fielded: silently skipped (a SUID
+      binary left un-hardened) or mapped to a corrupted policy entry.
+    - Recover the filename by parsing options from the right -- a trailing
+      whitelist keyword, or the mode/owner/group[/capability] tail anchored
+      by the octal mode. Space-free lines unchanged.
+    - Add regression test (drives the real script via print-policy) plus its
+      CI workflow. Canary-verified: fails on the pre-fix parser, passes now.
+    - Bring the file to strict-mode / shellcheck compliance as required to
+      touch it (6-directive block, printf, braces).

+    Drain input in USB-controller and config-file lookups
+
+    check-for-usb-controller: grep --quiet exits on the first match and closes

+    fix(remove-system.map): continue past undeletable files
+
+    The deletion loop called `exit 0` on the first System.map that `[ -w ]`
+    rejected, so copies in later locations were never shredded. Where
+    `[ -w ]` passed but shred failed anyway, shred ran as a bare command and
+    tripped the ERR trap that pre.bsh installs, aborting with a "## Please
+    report this bug!" banner and exit 1.
+
+    Branch on shred's exit status instead of `[ -w ]`, which does not
+    predict removability. Unlinking depends on write permission on the
+    parent directory rather than on the file itself, and an append-only file
+    passes the test yet cannot be unlinked at all. For a full-capability
+    root process the check is also true on a mode 444 file, so it only ever
+    failed on read-only file systems and on files carrying the immutable
+    attribute.
+
+    Clear the immutable and append-only attributes before each attempt. Per
+    review, a System.map should never be immutable and `chattr +i` would
+    possibly complicate kernel package removal; append-only is cleared on
+    the same grounds, since it blocks removal without affecting `[ -w ]`.
+
+    Report the files that remain once at the end, under a single wiki link
+    rather than repeating it on every line, and withhold "Done. Success."
+    when anything failed. A file reachable under two names, such as
+    /lib/modules/<version>/build and the source symlink beside it, is listed
+    under each, since both matched and both failed.
+
+    Iterate an array rather than word-splitting a string with IFS, which a
+    /etc/remove-system.map_pre.d drop-in can set; under `IFS=:` the globs
+    matched nothing, so the script deleted nothing and still exited 0.
+
+    The removal loop no longer exits early on failure and the script ends in
+    an explicit `exit 0`; a non-zero status would fail the kernel package's
+    postinst hook and the oneshot unit on every boot.
+

Subject: [PATCH 1768/1790] Also skip install checks on dist_build_iso;
 house-style

- Skip the sudo/console-user install checks when dist_build_iso=true (an
  ISO/live build) in addition to the existing skip_install_check file, so
  the derivative-maker build no longer needs to write that marker file.
  The manual file-based bypass is kept for non-derivative-maker users.
- Modernize to dist-ai house style: strict-mode block, printf not echo,
  has not command -v, braced + nounset-guarded variables.

Subject: [PATCH 1769/1790] Detect primary-GID members in the install checks

- sudo_users_check / console_users_check now count a non-root account
  whose PRIMARY group is sudo/console (via a vendored
  group_has_nonroot_member), not only supplementary members; a
  supplementary-only scan falsely aborted install for such an admin.
- Revert the qubesdb-read probe to 'command -v' (no-has waiver): a
  preinst runs at unpack time, before helper-scripts is guaranteed
  configured, so it must not source has.bsh.
- group_has_nonroot_member is VENDORED from helper-scripts accountctl.sh
  (same reason it cannot be sourced); a dist-ai drift guard keeps them
  in sync.

Subject: [PATCH 1771/1790] Pre-Depend on helper-scripts; source accountctl.sh,
 drop vendored copy

- helper-scripts moved from Depends to Pre-Depends: it is configured before this
  package is unpacked, so the preinst can source its libraries. Reuse the real
  group_has_nonroot_member from accountctl.sh instead of a vendored copy (and its
  drift guard).
- accountctl.sh pulls in has.bsh, so 'has' is available: use it, drop the
  no-has waiver and the command -v fallbacks.

+    fix(pam): pass profile names to pam-auth-update --remove
+
+    'pam-auth-update --remove' matches pam-config filenames under
+    /usr/share/pam-configs/, but prerm and postrm passed
+    $DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE -- the package name security-misc-shared --
+    which matches no profile. An unknown target is stored without
+    validation and simply never matches, so the --remove was inert in
+    both calls: the prerm call was an effective no-op, while the postrm
+    call still performed a plain reconciliation.
+
+    The prerm early-disable was therefore dead. On removal
+    /etc/pam.d/common-* kept referencing helper scripts under
+    /usr/libexec/security-misc/ that dpkg then deleted;
+    block-unsafe-logins is a Priority 1100 'requisite' entry, so a
+    dangling reference fails all authentication until postrm's
+    reconciliation regenerates common-* -- permanently, if postrm fails
+    before that point.
+
+    prerm now passes the eight profile filenames explicitly. postrm
+    drops the ineffective '--remove <package>' for a plain
+    reconciliation and guards it with 'command -v': Debian Policy 7.2
+    gives no guarantee that dependencies are available when postrm runs
+    and requires postrm to gracefully skip such actions, and an absent
+    pam-auth-update would abort the script under 'set -e'. prerm stays
+    unguarded: Policy names Depends (here libpam-runtime) as the
+    mechanism prerm scripts rely on, dependencies there normally being
+    at least unpacked.
+
+    One consequence of a '--remove' that now takes effect: it also drops
+    the eight names from /var/lib/pam/seen. If a removal is aborted,
+    postinst's 'pam-auth-update --package' re-enables the seven
+    'Default: yes' profiles among them, including any of them an
+    administrator had deliberately disabled (other packages' profiles
+    remain in seen and are unaffected), while
+    console-lockdown-security-misc ('Default: no') stays off until an
+    administrator re-enables it -- reinstalling does not restore it,
+    since preinst's enable is behind a do_once stamp. Both are new
+    relative to the previous inert behavior.

+    Pre-Depend on helper-scripts; source accountctl.sh, drop vendored copy
+
+    - helper-scripts moved from Depends to Pre-Depends: it is configured before this

+      group_has_nonroot_member from accountctl.sh instead of a vendored copy (and its
+      drift guard).
+    - accountctl.sh pulls in has.bsh, so 'has' is available: use it, drop the
+      no-has waiver and the command -v fallbacks.

+    Detect primary-GID members in the install checks
+
+    - sudo_users_check / console_users_check now count a non-root account

+      group_has_nonroot_member), not only supplementary members; a
+      supplementary-only scan falsely aborted install for such an admin.
+    - Revert the qubesdb-read probe to 'command -v' (no-has waiver): a
+      preinst runs at unpack time, before helper-scripts is guaranteed
+      configured, so it must not source has.bsh.
+    - group_has_nonroot_member is VENDORED from helper-scripts accountctl.sh

Subject: [PATCH 1781/1790] Add ssh-audit hardening policies, test tool and CI
 wiring

- ssh-audit-test + server/client policies pin the exact hardened algorithm
  set (allow_algorithm_subset_and_reordering = false); a regression that
  loosens the ssh config, or a server missing the hardening, now fails loud.
- dist-ai consumer wiring runs the config suite per PR and scans production
  SSH on a schedule.

Subject: [PATCH 1782/1790] ssh-audit-test: clean error on missing option
 operand

- --policy / --port with no value crashed on shift (shift count out of range)
  instead of reporting the missing operand; validate and die cleanly.
- Document that the ssh-audit policy check is server-to-client; OpenSSH sets
  both directions symmetrically, so it is complete for our OpenSSH targets.

Subject: [PATCH 1783/1790] Move ssh-audit test tool + policies out to dist-ai

- The ssh-audit-test driver and the server/client ssh-audit policies are test
  artifacts, not runtime hardening; they now live in the dist-ai
  security-misc-tests suite. security-misc's shipped package stays lean.
- Kept here: only the CI wiring (dm-consumer.yml + the dist-ai-tests /
  ssh-prod workflows), which is inherently per-consumer-repo. The dist-ai
  drift-guard test keeps the moved policies in sync with the ssh config drop-ins
  that remain the source of truth.

Subject: [PATCH 1784/1790] sshd: post-quantum-only kex + aes256-gcm
 (sshaudit.com A+/100)

- Server default now offers PQ-only key exchange (drop classical curve25519)
  and an AEAD, Terrapin-immune cipher (aes256-gcm, drop chacha20). This is the
  A+ / 100-of-100 sshaudit.com profile (verified equivalent to grapheneos.org):
  resists harvest-now-decrypt-later and removes chacha20's residual Terrapin
  exposure for unpatched peers.
- Interop: requires an OpenSSH 9.0+ (post-quantum) peer. Client config stays
  broad so outbound SSH to older servers is unaffected.

Subject: [PATCH 1786/1790] ssh client: post-quantum-only kex + aes256-gcm
 (match server)

- The client default now uses the same strictest set as the server: PQ-only
  key exchange and the aes256-gcm cipher only (drop curve25519, chacha20,
  aes256-ctr). Outbound SSH therefore only reaches post-quantum-capable
  servers; override per-host in ~/.ssh/config or a 50_user.conf drop-in for a
  server with a narrower algorithm set.

Subject: [PATCH 1787/1790] ssh: fix override advice; sync interop comments

- OpenSSH is first-wins: a lower-numbered drop-in (or ~/.ssh/config) overrides, not a higher-numbered one

- server comment no longer claims the client stays broad; the client config is equally strict

+    ssh-audit-test: clean error on missing option operand
+
+    - --policy / --port with no value crashed on shift (shift count out of range)
+      instead of reporting the missing operand; validate and die cleanly.
+    - Document that the ssh-audit policy check is server-to-client; OpenSSH sets
+      both directions symmetrically, so it is complete for our OpenSSH targets.

+
+    Add ssh-audit hardening policies, test tool and CI wiring
+
+    - ssh-audit-test + server/client policies pin the exact hardened algorithm
+      set (allow_algorithm_subset_and_reordering = false); a regression that
+      loosens the ssh config, or a server missing the hardening, now fails loud.
+    - dist-ai consumer wiring runs the config suite per PR and scans production
+      SSH on a schedule.
