    Created an attachment (id=346240)
    fopen.c - test for fopen modes

    Description of problem:
    O_EXCL is not used if mode is "wbex", but O_EXCL is used if mode is "wbxe".

    This bug can cause security vulnerabilities in software relying on this glibc extension.

    Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
    2.10.1-2, 2.9.90-3

    How reproducible:
    always

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. compile attached C source file
    2. run with options ababab wbex, and ababab wbxe
    3.
      
    Actual results:
    'x' may be ignored

    Expected results:
    'x' not ignored

    Additional info:
    $ strace -eopen ./a.out ababab wbxe 2>&1 | grep ababab ; rm -f ababab
    open("ababab", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_TRUNC|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3
    $ strace -eopen ./a.out ababab wbex 2>&1 | grep ababab ; rm -f ababab
    open("ababab", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3
