Cyrus SASL 2.1.28 opens sasldb2 with no Berkeley DB environment, so with
no locks (sasldb/db_berkeley.c, berkeleydb_open(): db_create(mbdb, NULL,
0)); saslpasswd2 puts and deletes in the file itself (_sasldb_putdata()),
while smtpd opens and closes it at every AUTH (_sasldb_getdata()) and the
backup copies it whenever it runs. Either could read a half-written page:
a spurious 535, or a torn sasldb2 in a backup whose restore breaks every
application's AUTH (assumptions C-S3, C-Q3).
SASLDB.Set and Delete now run saslpasswd2 on sasldb2.new - a byte copy of
the database, or no file when there is none yet (saslpasswd2 creates it,
DB_CREATE) - then chmod 0640, fsync, rename over sasldb2; a failed run
removes the copy and leaves the database; a copy a killed panel left is
removed first. A mutex keeps two changes of the panel from copying the
same old file. The backup needs no lock after all (the plan said one): it
reads each file through one descriptor, and a rename leaves that file
whole; the walk now leaves out a file that vanished between listing and
open (a writer's temporary file), while the SQLite snapshot's absence
stays an error. CHANGELOG also gains the entries of f2ad699 (supervision),
written then without them.
Tests: the copy holds the database's bytes, saslpasswd2 never gets the
live path, a reader of the old file keeps reading it (Linux), mode 0640,
nothing left behind; a failed change leaves the database; the first
account creates it. Stand (2026-10-15, make e2e, exit 0): new
sasldb_changed_by_rename - the inode of sasldb2 changes across one
password change (it cannot be the old one's: both exist at the copy),
then 35 AUTHs of app1 from three clients during 104 password changes of
another application, none refused; afterwards 640 panel selfpost, no copy
left in /data/sasl, the last password authenticates. That cannot prove a
race absent; it guards the mechanism. (A first run compared the inode
after 15 changes and found it equal: Linux reuses a freed inode number.)
go vet and go test ./... pass on the server (24 packages).

Comments only, no behaviour changed. go-milter v0.4.1 (session.go: one
session per connection, replaced after a non-continue reply; macros per
stage), Postfix 3.7.11 (milter8.c, smtpd_check.c
reject_auth_sender_login_mismatch(), mail_addr_find.c, showq_compat.c,
mail_conf_time.c, mail_params.h), Cyrus SASL 2.1.28 (saslpasswd.c,
plugins/sasldb.c: deleting a missing login is not an error), OpenDKIM
2.11.0~beta2 (opendkim-db.c, opendkim-genkey), Berkeley DB 5.3 db_dump,
rspamd 3.11.0. Comments that claimed what the source denies are corrected
(sasldb keeps the password as given, not hashed; an embedded newline is
kept, not truncated; rspamd sorts symbols by absolute weight); fixtures say
seen or composed. The sender check's From: parsing gets no citations: it is
replaced by the port of OpenDKIM's dkim_mail_parse next.
Contradictions left for their own commits: B-G5 cleanAddress, B-PS1 first
key wins, B-PQ1 the forced-expire flag, B-PQ10/PQ11 Postfix's time units.
