2022-10-06t/lib-httpd: pass LANG and LC_ALL to ApacheRené Scharfe1-0/+2
t5411 starts a web server with no explicit language setting, so it uses the system default. Ten of its tests expect it to return error messages containing the prefix "fatal: ", emitted by die(). This prefix can be localized since a1fd2cf8cd (i18n: mark message helpers prefix for translation, 2022-06-21), however. As a result these ten tests break for me on a system with LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" because the web server sends localized messages with "Schwerwiegend: " instead of "fatal: ". Fix these tests by passing LANG and LC_ALL to the web server, which are set to "C" by t/test-lib.sh, to get untranslated messages on both sides.

"git" built with RUNTIME_PREFIX flag turned on could figure out gitexecdir and other paths as relative to "git" executable. However, in the section specifies gitexecdir, RUNTIME_PREFIX wasn't mentioned, thus users may wrongly assume that "git" always locates gitexecdir as relative path to the executable.

2022-10-05promisor-remote: die upon failing fetchJonathan Tan3-5/+24
In a partial clone, an attempt to read a missing object results in an attempt to fetch that single object. In order to avoid multiple sequential fetches, which would occur when multiple objects are missing (which is the typical case), some commands have been taught to prefetch in a batch: such a command would, in a partial clone, notice that several objects that it will eventually need are missing, and call promisor_remote_get_direct() with all such objects at once. When this batch prefetch fails, these commands fall back to the sequential fetches. But at $DAYJOB we have noticed that this results in a bad user experience: a command would take unexpectedly long to finish (and possibly use up a lot of bandwidth) if the batch prefetch would fail for some intermittent reason, but all subsequent fetches would work. It would be a better user experience for such a command would just fail. Therefore, make it a fatal error if the prefetch fails and at least one object being fetched is known to be a promisor object. (The latter criterion is to make sure that we are not misleading the user that such an object would be present from the promisor remote. For example, a missing object may be a result of repository corruption and not because it is expectedly missing due to the repository being a partial clone.)

2022-10-05fsmonitor: deal with synthetic firmlinks on macOSEric DeCosta6-3/+167
Starting with macOS 10.15 (Catalina), Apple introduced a new feature called 'firmlinks' in order to separate the boot volume into two volumes, one read-only and one writable but still present them to the user as a single volume. Along with this change, Apple removed the ability to create symlinks in the root directory and replaced them with 'synthetic firmlinks'. See 'man synthetic.conf' When FSEevents reports the path of changed files, if the path involves a synthetic firmlink, the path is reported from the point of the synthetic firmlink and not the real path. For example: Real path: /System/Volumes/Data/network/working/directory/foo.txt Synthetic firmlink: /network -> /System/Volumes/Data/network FSEvents path: /network/working/directory/foo.txt This causes the FSEvents path to not match against the worktree directory. There are several ways in which synthetic firmlinks can be created: they can be defined in /etc/synthetic.conf, the automounter can create them, and there may be other means. Simply reading /etc/synthetic.conf is insufficient. No matter what process creates synthetic firmlinks, they all get created in the root directory. Therefore, in order to deal with synthetic firmlinks, the root directory is scanned and the first possible synthetic firmink that, when resolved, is a prefix of the worktree is used to map FSEvents paths to worktree paths.

2022-10-05ssh signing: return an error when signature cannot be readPhillip Wood1-3/+4
If the signature file cannot be read we print an error message but do not return an error to the caller. In practice it seems unlikely that the file would be unreadable if the call to ssh-keygen succeeds. The unlink_or_warn() call is moved to the end of the function so that we always try and remove the signature file. This isn't strictly necessary at the moment but it protects us against any extra code being added between trying to read the signature file and the cleanup at the end of the function in the future. unlink_or_warn() only prints a warning if it exists and cannot be removed.

2022-10-03sequencer: detect author name errors in read_author_script()Jeff King2-1/+60
As we parse the author-script file, we check for missing or duplicate lines for GIT_AUTHOR_NAME, etc. But after reading the whole file, our final error conditional checks "date_i" twice and "name_i" not at all. This not only leads to us failing to abort, but we may do an out-of-bounds read on the string_list array. The bug goes back to 442c36bd08 (am: improve author-script error reporting, 2018-10-31), though the code was soon after moved to this spot by bcd33ec25f (add read_author_script() to libgit, 2018-10-31). It was presumably just a typo in 442c36bd08. We'll add test coverage for all the error cases here, though only the GIT_AUTHOR_NAME ones fail (even in a vanilla build they segfault consistently, but certainly with SANITIZE=address).

2022-10-03mailinfo -b: fix an out of bounds accessPhillip Wood2-3/+3
To remove bracketed strings containing "PATCH" from the subject line cleanup_subject() scans the subject for the opening bracket using an offset from the beginning of the line. It then searches for the closing bracket with strchr(). To calculate the length of the bracketed string it unfortunately adds rather than subtracts the offset from the result of strchr(). This leads to an out of bounds access in memmem() when looking to see if the brackets contain "PATCH". We have tests that trigger this bug that were added in ae52d57f0b (t5100: add some more mailinfo tests, 2017-05-31). The commit message mentions that they are marked test_expect_failure as they trigger an assertion in strbuf_splice(). While it is reassuring that strbuf_splice() detects the problem and dies in retrospect that should perhaps have warranted a little more investigation. The bug was introduced by 17635fc900 (mailinfo: -b option keeps [bracketed] strings that is not a [PATCH] marker, 2009-07-15). I think the reason it has survived so long is that '-b' is not a popular option and without it the offset is always zero. This was found by the address sanitizer while I was cleaning up the test_todo idea in [1].

2022-09-30tmp-objdir: skip clean up when handling a signalJohn Cai1-36/+4
In the tmp-objdir api, tmp_objdir_create will create a temporary directory but also register signal handlers responsible for removing the directory's contents and the directory itself. However, the function responsible for recursively removing the contents and directory, remove_dir_recurse() calls opendir(3) and closedir(3). This can be problematic because these functions allocate and free memory, which are not async-signal-safe functions. This can lead to deadlocks. One place we call tmp_objdir_create() is in git-receive-pack, where we create a temporary quarantine directory "incoming". Incoming objects will be written to this directory before they get moved to the object directory. We have observed this code leading to a deadlock: Thread 1 (Thread 0x7f621ba0b200 (LWP 326305)): #0 __lll_lock_wait_private (futex=futex@entry=0x7f621bbf8b80 <main_arena>) at ./lowlevellock.c:35 #1 0x00007f621baa635b in __GI___libc_malloc (bytes=bytes@entry=32816) at malloc.c:3064 #2 0x00007f621bae9f49 in __alloc_dir (statp=0x7fff2ea7ed60, flags=0, close_fd=true, fd=5) at ../sysdeps/posix/opendir.c:118 #3 opendir_tail (fd=5) at ../sysdeps/posix/opendir.c:69 #4 __opendir (name=<optimized out>) at ../sysdeps/posix/opendir.c:92 #5 0x0000557c19c77de1 in remove_dir_recurse () git#6 0x0000557c19d81a4f in remove_tmp_objdir_on_signal () #7 <signal handler called> git#8 _int_malloc (av=av@entry=0x7f621bbf8b80 <main_arena>, bytes=bytes@entry=7160) at malloc.c:4116 git#9 0x00007f621baa62c9 in __GI___libc_malloc (bytes=7160) at malloc.c:3066 git#10 0x00007f621bd1e987 in inflateInit2_ () from /opt/gitlab/embedded/lib/libz.so.1 git#11 0x0000557c19dbe5f4 in git_inflate_init () git#12 0x0000557c19cee02a in unpack_compressed_entry () git#13 0x0000557c19cf08cb in unpack_entry () git#14 0x0000557c19cf0f32 in packed_object_info () git#15 0x0000557c19cd68cd in do_oid_object_info_extended () git#16 0x0000557c19cd6e2b in read_object_file_extended () git#17 0x0000557c19cdec2f in parse_object () git#18 0x0000557c19c34977 in lookup_commit_reference_gently () git#19 0x0000557c19d69309 in mark_uninteresting () git#20 0x0000557c19d2d180 in do_for_each_repo_ref_iterator () git#21 0x0000557c19d21678 in for_each_ref () git#22 0x0000557c19d6a94f in assign_shallow_commits_to_refs () git#23 0x0000557c19bc02b2 in cmd_receive_pack () git#24 0x0000557c19b29fdd in handle_builtin () git#25 0x0000557c19b2a526 in cmd_main () git#26 0x0000557c19b28ea2 in main () Since we can't do the cleanup in a portable and signal-safe way, skip the cleanup when we're handling a signal.

2022-10-01alias.c: reject too-long cmdline strings in split_cmdline()Kevin Backhouse1-2/+9
This function improperly uses an int to represent the number of entries in the resulting argument array. This allows a malicious actor to intentionally overflow the return value, leading to arbitrary heap writes. Because the resulting argv array is typically passed to execv(), it may be possible to leverage this attack to gain remote code execution on a victim machine. This was almost certainly the case for certain configurations of git-shell until the previous commit limited the size of input it would accept. Other calls to split_cmdline() are typically limited by the size of argv the OS is willing to hand us, so are similarly protected. So this is not strictly fixing a known vulnerability, but is a hardening of the function that is worth doing to protect against possible unknown vulnerabilities. One approach to fixing this would be modifying the signature of `split_cmdline()` to look something like: int split_cmdline(char *cmdline, const char ***argv, size_t *argc); Where the return value of `split_cmdline()` is negative for errors, and zero otherwise. If non-NULL, the `*argc` pointer is modified to contain the size of the `**argv` array. But this implies an absurdly large `argv` array, which more than likely larger than the system's argument limit. So even if split_cmdline() allowed this, it would fail immediately afterwards when we called execv(). So instead of converting all of `split_cmdline()`'s callers to work with `size_t` types in this patch, instead pursue the minimal fix here to prevent ever returning an array with more than INT_MAX entries in it.

2022-10-01shell: limit size of interactive commandsJeff King2-4/+36
When git-shell is run in interactive mode (which must be enabled by creating $HOME/git-shell-commands), it reads commands from stdin, one per line, and executes them. We read the commands with git_read_line_interactively(), which uses a strbuf under the hood. That means we'll accept an input of arbitrary size (limited only by how much heap we can allocate). That creates two problems: - the rest of the code is not prepared to handle large inputs. The most serious issue here is that split_cmdline() uses "int" for most of its types, which can lead to integer overflow and out-of-bounds array reads and writes. But even with that fixed, we assume that we can feed the command name to snprintf() (via xstrfmt()), which is stuck for historical reasons using "int", and causes it to fail (and even trigger a BUG() call). - since the point of git-shell is to take input from untrusted or semi-trusted clients, it's a mild denial-of-service. We'll allocate as many bytes as the client sends us (actually twice as many, since we immediately duplicate the buffer). We can fix both by just limiting the amount of per-command input we're willing to receive. We should also fix split_cmdline(), of course, which is an accident waiting to happen, but that can come on top. Most calls to split_cmdline(), including the other one in git-shell, are OK because they are reading from an OS-provided argv, which is limited in practice. This patch should eliminate the immediate vulnerabilities. I picked 4MB as an arbitrary limit. It's big enough that nobody should ever run into it in practice (since the point is to run the commands via exec, we're subject to OS limits which are typically much lower). But it's small enough that allocating it isn't that big a deal. The code is mostly just swapping out fgets() for the strbuf call, but we have to add a few niceties like flushing and trimming line endings. We could simplify things further by putting the buffer on the stack, but 4MB is probably a bit much there. Note that we'll _always_ allocate 4MB, which for normal, non-malicious requests is more than we would before this patch. But on the other hand, other git programs are happy to use 96MB for a delta cache. And since we'd never touch most of those pages, on a lazy-allocating OS like Linux they won't even get allocated to actual RAM. The ideal would be a version of strbuf_getline() that accepted a maximum value. But for a minimal vulnerability fix, let's keep things localized and simple. We can always refactor further on top. The included test fails in an obvious way with ASan or UBSan (which notice the integer overflow and out-of-bounds reads). Without them, it fails in a less obvious way: we may segfault, or we may try to xstrfmt() a long string, leading to a BUG(). Either way, it fails reliably before this patch, and passes with it. Note that we don't need an EXPENSIVE prereq on it. It does take 10-15s to fail before this patch, but with the new limit, we fail almost immediately (and the perl process generating 2GB of data exits via SIGPIPE).

2022-10-01transport: make `protocol.file.allow` be "user" by defaultTaylor Blau2-5/+4
An earlier patch discussed and fixed a scenario where Git could be used as a vector to exfiltrate sensitive data through a Docker container when a potential victim clones a suspicious repository with local submodules that contain symlinks. That security hole has since been plugged, but a similar one still exists. Instead of convincing a would-be victim to clone an embedded submodule via the "file" protocol, an attacker could convince an individual to clone a repository that has a submodule pointing to a valid path on the victim's filesystem. For example, if an individual (with username "foo") has their home directory ("/home/foo") stored as a Git repository, then an attacker could exfiltrate data by convincing a victim to clone a malicious repository containing a submodule pointing at "/home/foo/.git" with `--recurse-submodules`. Doing so would expose any sensitive contents in stored in "/home/foo" tracked in Git. For systems (such as Docker) that consider everything outside of the immediate top-level working directory containing a Dockerfile as inaccessible to the container (with the exception of volume mounts, and so on), this is a violation of trust by exposing unexpected contents in the working copy. To mitigate the likelihood of this kind of attack, adjust the "file://" protocol's default policy to be "user" to prevent commands that execute without user input (including recursive submodule initialization) from taking place by default.

2022-10-01builtin/clone.c: disallow `--local` clones with symlinksTaylor Blau2-35/+23
When cloning a repository with `--local`, Git relies on either making a hardlink or copy to every file in the "objects" directory of the source repository. This is done through the callpath `cmd_clone()` -> `clone_local()` -> `copy_or_link_directory()`. The way this optimization works is by enumerating every file and directory recursively in the source repository's `$GIT_DIR/objects` directory, and then either making a copy or hardlink of each file. The only exception to this rule is when copying the "alternates" file, in which case paths are rewritten to be absolute before writing a new "alternates" file in the destination repo. One quirk of this implementation is that it dereferences symlinks when cloning. This behavior was most recently modified in 36596fd2df (clone: better handle symlinked files at .git/objects/, 2019-07-10), which attempted to support `--local` clones of repositories with symlinks in their objects directory in a platform-independent way. Unfortunately, this behavior of dereferencing symlinks (that is, creating a hardlink or copy of the source's link target in the destination repository) can be used as a component in attacking a victim by inadvertently exposing the contents of file stored outside of the repository. Take, for example, a repository that stores a Dockerfile and is used to build Docker images. When building an image, Docker copies the directory contents into the VM, and then instructs the VM to execute the Dockerfile at the root of the copied directory. This protects against directory traversal attacks by copying symbolic links as-is without dereferencing them. That is, if a user has a symlink pointing at their private key material (where the symlink is present in the same directory as the Dockerfile, but the key itself is present outside of that directory), the key is unreadable to a Docker image, since the link will appear broken from the container's point of view. This behavior enables an attack whereby a victim is convinced to clone a repository containing an embedded submodule (with a URL like "file:///proc/self/cwd/path/to/submodule") which has a symlink pointing at a path containing sensitive information on the victim's machine. If a user is tricked into doing this, the contents at the destination of those symbolic links are exposed to the Docker image at runtime. One approach to preventing this behavior is to recreate symlinks in the destination repository. But this is problematic, since symlinking the objects directory are not well-supported. (One potential problem is that when sharing, e.g. a "pack" directory via symlinks, different writers performing garbage collection may consider different sets of objects to be reachable, enabling a situation whereby garbage collecting one repository may remove reachable objects in another repository). Instead, prohibit the local clone optimization when any symlinks are present in the `$GIT_DIR/objects` directory of the source repository. Users may clone the repository again by prepending the "file://" scheme to their clone URL, or by adding the `--no-local` option to their `git clone` invocation. The directory iterator used by `copy_or_link_directory()` must no longer dereference symlinks (i.e., it *must* call `lstat()` instead of `stat()` in order to discover whether or not there are symlinks present). This has no bearing on the overall behavior, since we will immediately `die()` on encounter a symlink. Note that t5604.33 suggests that we do support local clones with symbolic links in the source repository's objects directory, but this was likely unintentional, or at least did not take into consideration the problem with sharing parts of the objects directory with symbolic links at the time. Update this test to reflect which options are and aren't supported. Helped-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com>

2022-09-30branch: do not fail a no-op --edit-descJunio C Hamano2-2/+7
Imagine running "git branch --edit-description" while on a branch without the branch description, and then exit the editor after emptying the edit buffer, which is the way to tell the command that you changed your mind and you do not want the description after all. The command should just happily oblige, adding no branch description for the current branch, and exit successfully. But it fails to do so: $ git init -b main $ git commit --allow-empty -m commit $ GIT_EDITOR=: git branch --edit-description fatal: could not unset 'branch.main.description' The end result is OK in that the configuration variable does not exist in the resulting repository, but we should do better. If we know we didn't have a description, and if we are asked not to have a description by the editor, we can just return doing nothing. This of course introduces TOCTOU. If you add a branch description to the same branch from another window, while you had the editor open to edit the description, and then exit the editor without writing anything there, we'd end up not removing the description you added in the other window. But you are fooling yourself in your own repository at that point, and if it hurts, you'd be better off not doing so ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2022-09-29test-lib: have SANITIZE=leak imply TEST_NO_MALLOC_CHECKÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+3
Since 131b94a10a7 (test-lib.sh: Use GLIBC_TUNABLES instead of MALLOC_CHECK_ on glibc >= 2.34, 2022-03-04) compiling with SANITIZE=leak has missed reporting some leaks. The old MALLOC_CHECK method used before glibc 2.34 seems to have been (mostly?) compatible with it, but after 131b94a10a7 e.g. running: TEST_NO_MALLOC_CHECK=1 make SANITIZE=leak test T=t6437-submodule-merge.sh Would report a leak in builtin/commit.c, but this would not: TEST_NO_MALLOC_CHECK= make SANITIZE=leak test T=t6437-submodule-merge.sh Since the interaction is clearly breaking the SANITIZE=leak mode, let's mark them as explicitly incompatible. A related regression for SANITIZE=address was fixed in 067109a5e7d (tests: make SANITIZE=address imply TEST_NO_MALLOC_CHECK, 2022-04-09).
