2020-02-14t5580: test cloning without file://, test fetching via UNC pathsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+12
On Windows, it is quite common to work with network drives. The format of the paths to network drives (or "network shares", or UNC paths) is: \\<server>\<share>\... We already have a couple regression tests revolving around those types of paths, but we missed cloning and fetching from UNC paths without leading `file://` (and with backslashes instead of forward slashes). This lil' patch closes that gap. It gets a bit silly to add the commands to the name of the test script, so let's just rename it while we're testing more UNC stuff.

These patches fix several bugs in quoting arguments when spawning shell scripts on Windows. Note: these bugs are Windows-only, as we have to construct a command line for the process-to-spawn, unlike Linux/macOS, where `execv()` accepts an already-split command line. Furthermore, these fixes were not included in the CVE-2019-1350 part of v2.14.6 because the Windows-specific quoting when spawning shell scripts was contributed from Git for Windows into Git only in the v2.21.x era.

2019-12-06mingw: fix quoting of empty arguments for `sh`Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
When constructing command-lines to spawn processes, it is an unfortunate but necessary decision to quote arguments differently: MSYS2 has different dequoting rules (inherited from Cygwin) than the rest of Windows. To accommodate that, Git's Windows compatibility layer has two separate quoting helpers, one for MSYS2 (which it uses exclusively when spawning `sh`) and the other for regular Windows executables. The MSYS2 one had an unfortunate bug where a `,` somehow slipped in, instead of the `;`. As a consequence, empty arguments would not be enclosed in a pair of double quotes, but the closing double quote was skipped. Let's fix this.

2019-12-06t7415: adjust test for dubiously-nested submodule gitdirs for v2.20.xLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
In v2.20.x, Git clones submodules recursively by first creating the submodules' gitdirs and _then_ "updating" the submodules. This can lead to the situation where the clone path is taken because the directory (while it exists already) is not a git directory, but then the clone fails because that gitdir is unexpectedly already a directory. This _also_ works around the vulnerability that was fixed in "Disallow dubiously-nested submodule git directories", but it produces a different error message than the one expected by the test case, therefore we adjust the test case accordingly. Note: as the two submodules "race each other", there are actually two possible error messages, therefore we have to teach the test case to expect _two_ possible (and good) outcomes in addition to the one it expected before. Note: this workaround is only necessary for the v2.20.x release train; The behavior changed again in v2.21.x so that the original test case's expectations are met again.

2019-12-06submodule: reject submodule.update = !command in .gitmodulesLibravatar Jonathan Nieder3-11/+20
Since ac1fbbda2013 (submodule: do not copy unknown update mode from .gitmodules, 2013-12-02), Git has been careful to avoid copying [submodule "foo"] update = !run an arbitrary scary command from .gitmodules to a repository's local config, copying in the setting 'update = none' instead. The gitmodules(5) manpage documents the intention: The !command form is intentionally ignored here for security reasons Unfortunately, starting with v2.20.0-rc0 (which integrated ee69b2a9 (submodule--helper: introduce new update-module-mode helper, 2018-08-13, first released in v2.20.0-rc0)), there are scenarios where we *don't* ignore it: if the config store contains no submodule.foo.update setting, the submodule-config API falls back to reading .gitmodules and the repository-supplied !command gets run after all. This was part of a general change over time in submodule support to read more directly from .gitmodules, since unlike .git/config it allows a project to change values between branches and over time (while still allowing .git/config to override things). But it was never intended to apply to this kind of dangerous configuration. The behavior change was not advertised in ee69b2a9's commit message and was missed in review. Let's take the opportunity to make the protection more robust, even in Git versions that are technically not affected: instead of quietly converting 'update = !command' to 'update = none', noisily treat it as an error. Allowing the setting but treating it as meaning something else was just confusing; users are better served by seeing the error sooner. Forbidding the construct makes the semantics simpler and means we can check for it in fsck (in a separate patch). As a result, the submodule-config API cannot read this value from .gitmodules under any circumstance, and we can declare with confidence For security reasons, the '!command' form is not accepted here.

2019-12-05mingw: handle `subst`-ed "DOS drives"Libravatar Johannes Schindelin4-3/+36
Over a decade ago, in 25fe217b86c (Windows: Treat Windows style path names., 2008-03-05), Git was taught to handle absolute Windows paths, i.e. paths that start with a drive letter and a colon. Unbeknownst to us, while drive letters of physical drives are limited to letters of the English alphabet, there is a way to assign virtual drive letters to arbitrary directories, via the `subst` command, which is _not_ limited to English letters. It is therefore possible to have absolute Windows paths of the form `1:\what\the\hex.txt`. Even "better": pretty much arbitrary Unicode letters can also be used, e.g. `ä:\tschibät.sch`. While it can be sensibly argued that users who set up such funny drive letters really seek adverse consequences, the Windows Operating System is known to be a platform where many users are at the mercy of administrators who have their very own idea of what constitutes a reasonable setup. Therefore, let's just make sure that such funny paths are still considered absolute paths by Git, on Windows. In addition to Unicode characters, pretty much any character is a valid drive letter, as far as `subst` is concerned, even `:` and `"` or even a space character. While it is probably the opposite of smart to use them, let's safeguard `is_dos_drive_prefix()` against all of them. Note: `[::1]:repo` is a valid URL, but not a valid path on Windows. As `[` is now considered a valid drive letter, we need to be very careful to avoid misinterpreting such a string as valid local path in `url_is_local_not_ssh()`. To do that, we use the just-introduced function `is_valid_path()` (which will label the string as invalid file name because of the colon characters). This fixes CVE-2019-1351.

This patch series plugs an attack vector we had overlooked in our December 2014 work on `core.protectNTFS`. Essentially, the path `.git::$INDEX_ALLOCATION/config` is interpreted as `.git/config` when NTFS Alternate Data Streams are available (which they are on Windows, and at least on network shares that are SMB-mounted on macOS). Needless to say: we don't want that. In fact, we want to stay on the very safe side and not even special-case the `$INDEX_ALLOCATION` stream type: let's just prevent Git from touching _any_ explicitly specified Alternate Data Stream of `.git`. In essence, we'll prevent Git from tracking, or writing to, any path with a segment of the form `.git:<anything>`. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2019-12-05mingw: refuse to access paths with trailing spaces or periodsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin8-2/+123
When creating a directory on Windows whose path ends in a space or a period (or chains thereof), the Win32 API "helpfully" trims those. For example, `mkdir("abc ");` will return success, but actually create a directory called `abc` instead. This stems back to the DOS days, when all file names had exactly 8 characters plus exactly 3 characters for the file extension, and the only way to have shorter names was by padding with spaces. Sadly, this "helpful" behavior is a bit inconsistent: after a successful `mkdir("abc ");`, a `mkdir("abc /def")` will actually _fail_ (because the directory `abc ` does not actually exist). Even if it would work, we now have a serious problem because a Git repository could contain directories `abc` and `abc `, and on Windows, they would be "merged" unintentionally. As these paths are illegal on Windows, anyway, let's disallow any accesses to such paths on that Operating System. For practical reasons, this behavior is still guarded by the config setting `core.protectNTFS`: it is possible (and at least two regression tests make use of it) to create commits without involving the worktree. In such a scenario, it is of course possible -- even on Windows -- to create such file names. Among other consequences, this patch disallows submodules' paths to end in spaces on Windows (which would formerly have confused Git enough to try to write into incorrect paths, anyway). While this patch does not fix a vulnerability on its own, it prevents an attack vector that was exploited in demonstrations of a number of recently-fixed security bugs. The regression test added to `t/t7417-submodule-path-url.sh` reflects that attack vector. Note that we have to adjust the test case "prevent git~1 squatting on Windows" in `t/t7415-submodule-names.sh` because of a very subtle issue. It tries to clone two submodules whose names differ only in a trailing period character, and as a consequence their git directories differ in the same way. Previously, when Git tried to clone the second submodule, it thought that the git directory already existed (because on Windows, when you create a directory with the name `b.` it actually creates `b`), but with this patch, the first submodule's clone will fail because of the illegal name of the git directory. Therefore, when cloning the second submodule, Git will take a different code path: a fresh clone (without an existing git directory). Both code paths fail to clone the second submodule, both because the the corresponding worktree directory exists and is not empty, but the error messages are worded differently.

We already have a test helper to verify the latter, with this patch we can also verify the former. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2019-12-05mingw: refuse to access paths with illegal charactersLibravatar Johannes Schindelin3-3/+18
Certain characters are not admissible in file names on Windows, even if Cygwin/MSYS2 (and therefore, Git for Windows' Bash) pretend that they are, e.g. `:`, `<`, `>`, etc Let's disallow those characters explicitly in Windows builds of Git. Note: just like trailing spaces or periods, it _is_ possible on Windows to create commits adding files with such illegal characters, as long as the operation leaves the worktree untouched. To allow for that, we continue to guard `is_valid_win32_path()` behind the config setting `core.protectNTFS`, so that users _can_ continue to do that, as long as they turn the protections off via that config setting. Among other problems, this prevents Git from trying to write to an "NTFS Alternate Data Stream" (which refers to metadata stored alongside a file, under a special name: "<filename>:<stream-name>"). This fix therefore also prevents an attack vector that was exploited in demonstrations of a number of recently-fixed security bugs.

2019-12-05unpack-trees: let merged_entry() pass through do_add_entry()'s errorsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+2
A `git clone` will end with exit code 0 when `merged_entry()` returns a positive value during a call of `unpack_trees()` to `traverse_trees()`. The reason is that `unpack_trees()` will interpret a positive value not to be an error. The problem is, however, that `add_index_entry()` (which is called by `merged_entry()` can report an error, and we really should fail the entire clone in such a case. Let's fix this problem, in preparation for a Windows-specific patch disallowing `mkdir()` with directory names that contain a trailing space (which is illegal on NTFS): we want `git clone` to abort when a path cannot be checked out due to that condition.

2019-12-05quote-stress-test: allow skipping some trialsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+5
When the, say, 93rd trial run fails, it is a good idea to have a way to skip the first 92 trials and dig directly into the 93rd in a debugger. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2019-12-05t6130/t9350: prepare for stringent Win32 path validationLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-1/+2
On Windows, file names cannot contain asterisks nor newline characters. In an upcoming commit, we will make this limitation explicit, disallowing even the creation of commits that introduce such file names. However, in the test scripts touched by this patch, we _know_ that those paths won't be checked out, so we _want_ to allow such file names. Happily, the stringent path validation will be guarded via the `core.protectNTFS` flag, so all we need to do is to force that flag off temporarily.

2019-12-05quote-stress-test: accept arguments to test via the command-lineLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-13/+22
When the stress test reported a problem with quoting certain arguments, it is helpful to have a facility to play with those arguments in order to find out whether variations of those arguments are affected, too. Let's allow `test-run-command quote-stress-test -- <args>` to be used for that purpose. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2019-12-05tests: add a helper to stress test argument quotingLibravatar Garima Singh1-2/+116
On Windows, we have to do all the command-line argument quoting ourselves. Worse: we have to have two versions of said quoting, one for MSYS2 programs (which have their own dequoting rules) and the rest. We care mostly about the rest, and to make sure that that works, let's have a stress test that comes up with all kinds of awkward arguments, verifying that a spawned sub-process receives those unharmed.

2019-12-05Disallow dubiously-nested submodule git directoriesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin4-2/+79
Currently it is technically possible to let a submodule's git directory point right into the git dir of a sibling submodule. Example: the git directories of two submodules with the names `hippo` and `hippo/hooks` would be `.git/modules/hippo/` and `.git/modules/hippo/hooks/`, respectively, but the latter is already intended to house the former's hooks. In most cases, this is just confusing, but there is also a (quite contrived) attack vector where Git can be fooled into mistaking remote content for file contents it wrote itself during a recursive clone. Let's plug this bug. To do so, we introduce the new function `validate_submodule_git_dir()` which simply verifies that no git dir exists for any leading directories of the submodule name (if there are any). Note: this patch specifically continues to allow sibling modules names of the form `core/lib`, `core/doc`, etc, as long as `core` is not a submodule name. This fixes CVE-2019-1387.
