OPENAFS-SA-2024-002: acl: Error on missing newlines when parsing ACL
CVE-2024-10396 In acl_Internalize_pr(), each line in an ACL granting rights (positive or negative) is sscanf()'d with "%63s\t%d\n", and then we try to advance 'nextc' beyond the next newline character. However, sscanf()'ing "%63s\t%d\n" does not guarantee that there is a newline in the given string. Whitespace characters in sscanf() are not matched exactly, and may match any amount of whitespace (including none at all). For example, a string like "foo 4" may be parsed by sscanf(), but does not contain any newlines. If this happens, strchr(nextc, '\n') will return NULL, and we'll advance 'nextc' to 0x1, causing a segfault when we next try to dereference 'nextc'. To avoid this, check if 'nextc' is NULL after the strchr() call, and return an error if so.
