Subject: [PATCH] journald: set a limit on the number of fields

The fix for CVE-2018-16865 is plucked from two commits that have
been pushed to systemd master.

journald: set a limit on the number of fields (1k)

We allocate a iovec entry for each field, so with many short entries,
our memory usage and processing time can be large, even with a relatively
small message size. Let's refuse overly long entries.

CVE-2018-16865
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1653861

What from I can see, the problem is not from an alloca, despite what the CVE
description says, but from the attack multiplication that comes from creating
many very small iovecs: (void* + size_t) for each three bytes of input message.

Patch backported from systemd master at
052c57f132f04a3cf4148f87561618da1a6908b4.

journal-remote: set a limit on the number of fields in a message

Existing use of E2BIG is replaced with ENOBUFS (entry too long), and E2BIG is
reused for the new error condition (too many fields).

This matches the change done for systemd-journald, hence forming the second
part of the fix for CVE-2018-16865
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1653861).

Patch backported from systemd master at
ef4d6abe7c7fab6cbff975b32e76b09feee56074.
with the changes applied by 7fdb237f5473cb8fc2129e57e8a0039526dcb4fd
removed.
