* commit 'cf110b33c825f15e8a101b5772d15ec282ff85bf': (105 commits) Unify the test (t_bigio.c) between hdf5_1_10 and develop Remove comparison to NULL for variables to be freed. Add HDfree of vector, matrix_out and matrix_out1 previously HDmalloced in coll_write_test(). merged from develop merged from develop removed duplicate code Code improvement Description: - Removed memory leaks caused by accidentally invoking p_get_member_type - Added the call to test_lcpl, missed previously Platforms tested: Linux/64 (jelly) Linux/ppc64 (ostrich) Darwin (osx1010test) Updated RELEASE.txt Description: - Wrappers for H5Lcreate_soft, H5Lcreate_hard, H5Lcopy, H5Lmove, H5Ldelete, and H5Lget_info - Class LinkCreatPropList - Fixed typo in source file Platforms tested: Linux/64 (jelly) Updated for H5LcreatProp.[h,cpp] Updated MANIFEST for H5LcreatProp.[h,cpp] HDFFV-10149 continued Description: - Moved the new wrappers committed on Mar 9: 43158f3bb352f374c31556a5d0dc463a09e0b32e to H5Location and renamed some of them for overloading. This is because the loc_id in the C APIs can be file, group, dataset, named datatype, and attribute. Previous implementation was wrong following some inaccurate C API reference manual. Re-factor coding for H5P/Sencode with libver bounds. Removed commented out code from H5FDmpio.c, H5FDprivate.h and H5Fint.c Upated cpp doc.

+ - If an HDF5 file contains a filter pipeline message with a 'number of
+ filters' field that exceeds the maximum number of allowed filters,

+
+ NOTE: The HDF5 C library cannot produce such a file. This condition
+ should only occur in a corrupt (or deliberately altered) file
+ or a file created by third-party software.
+
+ This problem arose because the error handling code assumed that
+ the 'number of filters' field implied that a dynamic array of that
+ size had already been created and that the cleanup code should
+ iterate over that array and clean up each element's resources. If
+ an error occurred before the array has been allocated, this will
+ not be true.
+
+ This has been changed so that the number of filters is set to
+ zero on errors. Additionally, the filter array traversal in the
+ error handling code now requires that the filter array not be NULL.

+ - If an HDF5 file contains a filter pipeline message which contains
+ a 'number of filters' field that exceeds the actual number of
+ filters in the message, the HDF5 C library will read off the end of
+ the read buffer.

+ This issue was reported to The HDF Group as issue #CVE-2017-17506.
+
+ NOTE: The HDF5 C library cannot produce such a file. This condition
+ should only occur in a corrupt (or deliberately altered) file
+ or a file created by third-party software.
+
+ The problem was fixed by passing the buffer size with the buffer
+ and ensuring that the pointer cannot be incremented off the end
+ of the buffer. A mismatch between the number of filters declared
+ and the actual number of filters will now invoke normal HDF5
+ error handling.
