バージョン1.5.0が出ました。

組込み BusyBox

今回の正式リリースでは、セキュアOSユーザ会(JSELUG)有志（KaiGaiさんやhimainuさんなど）によるSELinux対応が含まれたことが大きいですね。
お疲れ様でした。私も少し手伝えてよかったです。
さらに組み込み向けSELinuxに向けてがんばっていきましょう。


ちなみに以下では新しいSELinux関連アプレットとしてrunconとchconしか出てませんが、getenforce、getsebool、matchpathcon、selinuxenabled、setenforceも入ってますよ。

  • find: added support for -user, -not, fixed -mtime, -mmin, -perm
  • [de]archivers: merge common logic into one module
  • ping[6]: unified code for both
  • less: regex search improved
  • ash: more readable code, testsuite added
  • sed: several very obscure bugs fixed
  • chown: -H, -L, -P support (required by POSIX)
  • tar: handle (broken) checksums a-la Sun; tar restores mode again
  • grep: implement -w, "implement" -a and -I by ignoring them
  • cp: more sane behavior when overwriting existing files
  • init: stop doing silly things with the console (-400 bytes)
  • httpd: make httpd usable for NOMMU CPUs; fix POSTDATA handling bugs
  • httpd: run interpreter for configured file extensions in any dir, not only in /cgi-bin/
  • chrt: new applet
  • SELinux: SELinux-related code and -Z option added to several applets, new SELinux-specific applets: chcon, runcon.
  • Build system: produces link map, uses -Wwrite-strings to catch improper usage of string constants.
  • Data and bss section usage audited and reduced - should help NOMMU targets.
  • Applets with bug fixes: gunzip, vi, syslogd, dpkg, ls, adjtimex, resize, sv, printf, diff, awk, sort, dpkg, diff, tftp
  • Applets with usability improvements: swapon, more, ifup/ifdown, hwclock, udhcpd, start_stop_daemon, cmp
  • Applets with code cleaned up: telnet, fdisk, fsck_minix, mkfs_minix, syslogd, swapon, runsv, svlogd, klogd
