uv_set_process_title() was susceptible to a format string vulnerability:
$ node -e 'process.title = Array(42).join("%s")'
Segmentation fault: 11 (core dumped)
The fix is trivial - call setproctitle("%s", s) instead of setproctitle(s) -
but valgrind complains loudly about reads from and writes to uninitialized
memory in libc. It's not a libuv bug because the test case below triggers the
same warnings:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void)
{
setproctitle("%s", "test");
return 0;
}
That's why this commit replaces setproctitle() with sysctl(KERN_PROC_ARGS).
This commit reapplies commit a9f6f06, which got reverted in 69a6afe. The revert
turned out to be unnecessary.
