2018-08-03pack-objects: specify --index-version argument help explicitlyLibravatar René Scharfe1-2/+2
Wrap both placeholders in the argument help string in angular brackets to signal that users needs replace them with some actual value. Use the flag PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP to prevent parseopt from adding another pair. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-08-03difftool: remove angular brackets from argument helpLibravatar René Scharfe1-2/+2
Parseopt wraps arguments in a pair of angular brackets by default, signifying that the user needs to replace it with a value of the documented type. Remove the pairs from the option definitions to duplication and confusion. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-08-03add, update-index: fix --chmod argument helpLibravatar René Scharfe2-2/+4
Don't translate the argument specification for --chmod; "+x" and "-x" are the literal strings that the commands accept. Separate alternatives using a pipe character instead of a slash, for consistency. Use the flag PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP to prevent parseopt from adding a pair of angular brackets around the argument help string, as that would wrongly indicate that users need to replace the literal strings with some kind of value.

2018-08-03push: use PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP instead of unbalanced bracketsLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-2/+2
The option help text for the force-with-lease option to "git push" reads like this: $ git push -h 2>&1 | grep -e force-with-lease --force-with-lease[=<refname>:<expect>] which comes from having N_("refname>:<expect") as the argument help text in the source code, with an aparent lack of "<" and ">" at both ends. It turns out that parse-options machinery takes the whole string and encloses it inside a pair of "<>", to make it easier for majority cases that uses a single token placeholder. The help string was written in a funnily unbalanced way knowing that the end result would balance out, by somebody who forgot the presence of PARSE_OPT_LITERAL_ARGHELP, which is the escape hatch mechanism designed to help such a case. We just should use the official escape hatch instead. Because ":<expect>" part can be omitted to ask Git to guess, it may be more correct to spell it as "<refname>[:<expect>]", but that is not the focus of this topic.

2018-05-21verify_path: disallow symlinks in .gitmodulesLibravatar Jeff King4-15/+37
There are a few reasons it's not a good idea to make .gitmodules a symlink, including: 1. It won't be portable to systems without symlinks. 2. It may behave inconsistently, since Git may look at this file in the index or a tree without bothering to resolve any symbolic links. We don't do this _yet_, but the config infrastructure is there and it's planned for the future. With some clever code, we could make (2) work. And some people may not care about (1) if they only work on one platform. But there are a few security reasons to simply disallow it: a. A symlinked .gitmodules file may circumvent any fsck checks of the content. b. Git may read and write from the on-disk file without sanity checking the symlink target. So for example, if you link ".gitmodules" to "../oops" and run "git submodule add", we'll write to the file "oops" outside the repository. Again, both of those are problems that _could_ be solved with sufficient code, but given the complications in (1) and (2), we're better off just outlawing it explicitly. Note the slightly tricky call to verify_path() in update-index's update_one(). There we may not have a mode if we're not updating from the filesystem (e.g., we might just be removing the file). Passing "0" as the mode there works fine; since it's not a symlink, we'll just skip the extra checks. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2018-05-21update-index: stat updated files earlierLibravatar Jeff King1-8/+17
In the update_one(), we check verify_path() on the proposed path before doing anything else. In preparation for having verify_path() look at the file mode, let's stat the file earlier, so we can check the mode accurately. This is made a bit trickier by the fact that this function only does an lstat in a few code paths (the ones that flow down through process_path()). So we can speculatively do the lstat() here and pass the results down, and just use a dummy mode for cases where we won't actually be updating the index from the filesystem.

2018-05-21verify_dotfile: mention case-insensitivity in commentLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+4

2018-05-21verify_path: drop clever fallthroughLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+4
We check ".git" and ".." in the same switch statement, and fall through the cases to share the end-of-component check. While this saves us a line or two, it makes modifying the function much harder. Let's just write it out. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2018-05-21skip_prefix: add case-insensitive variantLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+17
We have the convenient skip_prefix() helper, but if you want to do case-insensitive matching, you're stuck doing it by hand. We could add an extra parameter to the function to let callers ask for this, but the function is small and somewhat performance-critical. Let's just re-implement it for the case-insensitive version.

This tests primarily for NTFS issues, but also adds one example of an HFS+ issue.

2018-05-21is_ntfs_dotgit: match other .git filesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-1/+93
When we started to catch NTFS short names that clash with .git, we only looked for GIT~1. This is sufficient because we only ever clone into an empty directory, so .git is guaranteed to be the first subdirectory or file in that directory. However, even with a fresh clone, .gitmodules is *not* necessarily the first file to be written that would want the NTFS short name GITMOD~1: a malicious repository can add .gitmodul0000 and friends, which sorts before `.gitmodules` and is therefore checked out *first*. For that reason, we have to test not only for ~1 short names, but for others, too. It's hard to just adapt the existing checks in is_ntfs_dotgit(): since Windows 2000 (i.e., in all Windows versions still supported by Git), NTFS short names are only generated in the <prefix>~<number> form up to number 4. After that, a *different* prefix is used, calculated from the long file name using an undocumented, but stable algorithm. For example, the short name of .gitmodules would be GITMOD~1, but if it is taken, and all of ~2, ~3 and ~4 are taken, too, the short name GI7EBA~1 will be used. From there, collisions are handled by incrementing the number, shortening the prefix as needed (until ~9999999 is reached, in which case NTFS will not allow the file to be created). We'd also want to handle .gitignore and .gitattributes, which suffer from a similar problem, using the fall-back short names GI250A~1 and GI7D29~1, respectively. To accommodate for that, we could reimplement the hashing algorithm, but it is just safer and simpler to provide the known prefixes. This algorithm has been reverse-engineered and described at https://usn.pw/blog/gen/2015/06/09/filenames/, which is defunct but still available via https://web.archive.org/. These can be recomputed by running the following Perl script: -- snip -- use warnings; use strict; sub compute_short_name_hash ($) { my $checksum = 0; foreach (split('', $_[0])) { $checksum = ($checksum * 0x25 + ord($_)) & 0xffff; } $checksum = ($checksum * 314159269) & 0xffffffff; $checksum = 1 + (~$checksum & 0x7fffffff) if ($checksum & 0x80000000); $checksum -= (($checksum * 1152921497) >> 60) * 1000000007; return scalar reverse sprintf("%x", $checksum & 0xffff); } print compute_short_name_hash($ARGV[0]); -- snap -- E.g., running that with the argument ".gitignore" will result in "250a" (which then becomes "gi250a" in the code).

2018-05-21is_hfs_dotgit: match other .git filesLibravatar Jeff King2-12/+51
Both verify_path() and fsck match ".git", ".GIT", and other variants specific to HFS+. Let's allow matching other special files like ".gitmodules", which we'll later use to enforce extra restrictions via verify_path() and fsck. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2018-05-21is_ntfs_dotgit: use a size_t for traversing stringLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
We walk through the "name" string using an int, which can wrap to a negative value and cause us to read random memory before our array (e.g., by creating a tree with a name >2GB, since "int" is still 32 bits even on most 64-bit platforms). Worse, this is easy to trigger during the fsck_tree() check, which is supposed to be protecting us from malicious garbage. Note one bit of trickiness in the existing code: we sometimes assign -1 to "len" at the end of the loop, and then rely on the "len++" in the for-loop's increment to take it back to 0. This is still legal with a size_t, since assigning -1 will turn into SIZE_MAX, which then wraps around to 0 on increment. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2018-05-21submodule-config: verify submodule names as pathsLibravatar Jeff King5-0/+143
Submodule "names" come from the untrusted .gitmodules file, but we blindly append them to $GIT_DIR/modules to create our on-disk repo paths. This means you can do bad things by putting "../" into the name (among other things). Let's sanity-check these names to avoid building a path that can be exploited. There are two main decisions: 1. What should the allowed syntax be? It's tempting to reuse verify_path(), since submodule names typically come from in-repo paths. But there are two reasons not to: a. It's technically more strict than what we need, as we really care only about breaking out of the $GIT_DIR/modules/ hierarchy. E.g., having a submodule named "foo/.git" isn't actually dangerous, and it's possible that somebody has manually given such a funny name. b. Since we'll eventually use this checking logic in fsck to prevent downstream repositories, it should be consistent across platforms. Because verify_path() relies on is_dir_sep(), it wouldn't block "foo\..\bar" on a non-Windows machine. 2. Where should we enforce it? These days most of the .gitmodules reads go through submodule-config.c, so I've put it there in the reading step. That should cover all of the C code. We also construct the name for "git submodule add" inside the git-submodule.sh script. This is probably not a big deal for security since the name is coming from the user anyway, but it would be polite to remind them if the name they pick is invalid (and we need to expose the name-checker to the shell anyway for our test scripts). This patch issues a warning when reading .gitmodules and just ignores the related config entry completely. This will generally end up producing a sensible error, as it works the same as a .gitmodules file which is missing a submodule entry (so "submodule update" will barf, but "git clone --recurse-submodules" will print an error but not abort the clone. There is one minor oddity, which is that we print the warning once per malformed config key (since that's how the config subsystem gives us the entries). So in the new test, for example, the user would see three warnings. That's OK, since the intent is that this case should never come up outside of malicious repositories (and then it might even benefit the user to see the message multiple times). Credit for finding this vulnerability and the proof of concept from which the test script was adapted goes to Etienne Stalmans. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
