2017-07-28connect: reject paths that look like command line optionsLibravatar Jeff King3-0/+40
If we get a repo path like "-repo.git", we may try to invoke "git-upload-pack -repo.git". This is going to fail, since upload-pack will interpret it as a set of bogus options. But let's reject this before we even run the sub-program, since we would not want to allow any mischief with repo names that actually are real command-line options. You can still ask for such a path via git-daemon, but there's no security problem there, because git-daemon enters the repo itself and then passes "." on the command line.

2017-07-28connect: reject dashed arguments for proxy commandsLibravatar Jeff King2-0/+10
If you have a GIT_PROXY_COMMAND configured, we will run it with the host/port on the command-line. If a URL contains a mischievous host like "--foo", we don't know how the proxy command may handle it. It's likely to break, but it may also do something dangerous and unwanted (technically it could even do something useful, but that seems unlikely). We should err on the side of caution and reject this before we even run the command. The hostname check matches the one we do in a similar circumstance for ssh. The port check is not present for ssh, but there it's not necessary because the syntax is "-p <port>", and there's no ambiguity on the parsing side. It's not clear whether you can actually get a negative port to the proxy here or not. Doing: git fetch git://remote:-1234/repo.git keeps the "-1234" as part of the hostname, with the default port of 9418. But it's a good idea to keep this check close to the point of running the command to make it clear that there's no way to circumvent it (and at worst it serves as a belt-and-suspenders check).

2017-07-28connect: factor out "looks like command line option" checkLibravatar Jeff King3-1/+14
We reject hostnames that start with a dash because they may be confused for command-line options. Let's factor out that notion into a helper function, as we'll use it in more places. And while it's simple now, it's not clear if some systems might need more complex logic to handle all cases.

2017-07-28connect: reject ssh hostname that begins with a dashLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
When commands like "git fetch" talk with ssh://$rest_of_URL/, the code splits $rest_of_URL into components like host, port, etc., and then spawns the underlying "ssh" program by formulating argv[] array that has: - the path to ssh command taken from GIT_SSH_COMMAND, etc. - dashed options like '-batch' (for Tortoise), '-p <port>' as needed. - ssh_host, which is supposed to be the hostname parsed out of $rest_of_URL. - then the command to be run on the other side, e.g. git upload-pack. If the ssh_host ends up getting '-<anything>', the argv[] that is used to spawn the command becomes something like: { "ssh", "-p", "22", "-<anything>", "command", "to", "run", NULL } which obviously is bogus, but depending on the actual value of "<anything>", will make "ssh" parse and use it as an option. Prevent this by forbidding ssh_host that begins with a "-".

* jk/shell-no-repository-that-begins-with-dash: shell: disallow repo names beginning with dash
2017-05-05shell: disallow repo names beginning with dashLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When a remote server uses git-shell, the client side will connect to it like: ssh server "git-upload-pack 'foo.git'" and we literally exec ("git-upload-pack", "foo.git"). In early versions of upload-pack and receive-pack, we took a repository argument and nothing else. But over time they learned to accept dashed options. If the user passes a repository name that starts with a dash, the results are confusing at best (we complain of a bogus option instead of a non-existent repository) and malicious at worst (the user can start an interactive pager via "--help"). We could pass "--" to the sub-process to make sure the user's argument is interpreted as a branch name. I.e.: git-upload-pack -- -foo.git But adding "--" automatically would make us inconsistent with a normal shell (i.e., when git-shell is not in use), where "-foo.git" would still be an error. For that case, the client would have to specify the "--", but they can't do so reliably, as existing versions of git-shell do not allow more than a single argument. The simplest thing is to simply disallow "-" at the start of the repo name argument. This hasn't worked either with or without git-shell since version 1.0.0, and nobody has complained. Note that this patch just applies to do_generic_cmd(), which runs upload-pack, receive-pack, and upload-archive. There are two other types of commands that git-shell runs: - do_cvs_cmd(), but this already restricts the argument to be the literal string "server" - admin-provided commands in the git-shell-commands directory. We'll pass along arbitrary arguments there, so these commands could have similar problems. But these commands might actually understand dashed arguments, so we cannot just block them here. It's up to the writer of the commands to make sure they are safe. With great power comes great responsibility.

The tempfile (hence its user lockfile) API lets the caller to open a file descriptor to a temporary file, write into it and then finalize it by first closing the filehandle and then either removing or renaming the temporary file. When the process spawns a subprocess after obtaining the file descriptor, and if the subprocess has not exited when the attempt to remove or rename is made, the last step fails on Windows, because the subprocess has the file descriptor still open. Open tempfile with O_CLOEXEC flag to avoid this (on Windows, this is mapped to O_NOINHERIT). * bw/mingw-avoid-inheriting-fd-to-lockfile: mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processes t6026-merge-attr: child processes must not inherit index.lock handles

2016-08-23mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processesLibravatar Ben Wijen6-2/+23
When the index is locked and child processes inherit the handle to said lock and the parent process wants to remove the lock before the child process exits, on Windows there is a problem: it won't work because files cannot be deleted if a process holds a handle on them. The symptom: Rename from 'xxx/.git/index.lock' to 'xxx/.git/index' failed. Should I try again? (y/n) Spawning child processes with bInheritHandles==FALSE would not work because no file handles would be inherited, not even the hStdXxx handles in STARTUPINFO (stdin/stdout/stderr). Opening every file with O_NOINHERIT does not work, either, as e.g. git-upload-pack expects inherited file handles. This leaves us with the only way out: creating temp files with the O_NOINHERIT flag. This flag is Windows-specific, however. For our purposes, it is equivalent to O_CLOEXEC (which does not exist on Windows), so let's just open temporary files with the O_CLOEXEC flag and map that flag to O_NOINHERIT on Windows. As Eric Wong pointed out, we need to be careful to handle the case where the Linux headers used to compile Git support O_CLOEXEC but the Linux kernel used to run Git does not: it returns an EINVAL. This fixes the test that we just introduced to demonstrate the problem.
