validate %FILEPATH% when parsing repo dbs
Currently we make no effort to validate the %FILENAME% field in the repo db. This allows for relative paths to be considered valid. A carefully crafted db entry with a malicious relative path, (e.g. `../../../../etc/passwd`) will cause pacman to to overwrite _any_ file on the target's machine. Add the following validation: - doesn't start with '.' - doesn't contain a '/' - won't overflow PATH_MAX Signed-off-by: Simon Gomizelj <simongmzlj@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
