CVE-2014-7817:

The function wordexp() fails to properly handle the WRDE_NOCMD
flag when processing arithmetic inputs in the form of "$((... ``))"
where "..." can be anything valid. The backticks in the arithmetic
epxression are evaluated by in a shell even if WRDE_NOCMD forbade
command substitution. This allows an attacker to attempt to pass
dangerous commands via constructs of the above form, and bypass
the WRDE_NOCMD flag. This patch fixes this by checking for WRDE_NOCMD
in parse_arith(). The patch also hardens parse_backticks() and 
parse_comm() to check for WRDE_NOCMD flag and return an error instead
of ever running a shell.

We expand the testsuite and add 3 new regression tests of roughtly
the same form but with a couple of nested levels. 

On top of the 3 new tests we add fork validation to the WRDE_NOCMD
testing. If any forks are detected during the execution of a wordexp()
call with WRDE_NOCMD, the test is marked as failed. This is slightly
heuristic since vfork might be used, but it provides a higher level
of assurance that no shells were executed as part of command substitution
with WRDE_NOCMD in effect. In addition it doesn't require libpthread or
libdl, instead we use the public implementation namespace function
__register_atfork (already part of the public ABI for libpthread).

Tested on x86_64 with no regressions.

2014-10-27  Carlos O'Donell  <carlos@redhat.com>

	* wordexp-test.c (__dso_handle): Add prototype.
	(__register_atfork): Likewise.
	(__app_register_atfork): New function.
	(registered_forks): New global.
	(register_fork): New function.
	(test_case): Add 3 new tests for WRDE_CMDSUB.
	(main): Call __app_register_atfork.
	(testit): If WRDE_NOCMD set registered_forks to zero, run test, and
	if fork count is non-zero fail the test.
	* posix/wordexp.c (parse_arith): Return WRDE_NOCMD if WRDE_NOCMD flag
	is set and parsing '`'. 
	(parse_comm): Return WRDE_NOCMD if WRDE_NOCMD flag is set.
	(parse_backtick): Return WRDE_NOCMD if WRDE_NOCMD flag is set and
	parsing '`'.
