Forbid pathnames that the platform's filesystem cannot represent on MinGW. * js/mingw-reserved-filenames: mingw: refuse paths containing reserved names mingw: short-circuit the conversion of `/dev/null` to UTF-16
2019-12-21mingw: refuse paths containing reserved namesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-14/+90
There are a couple of reserved names that cannot be file names on Windows, such as `AUX`, `NUL`, etc. For an almost complete list, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file If one would try to create a directory named `NUL`, it would actually "succeed", i.e. the call would return success, but nothing would be created. Worse, even adding a file extension to the reserved name does not make it a valid file name. To understand the rationale behind that behavior, see https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20031022-00/?p=42073 Let's just disallow them all.

2019-12-21mingw: short-circuit the conversion of `/dev/null` to UTF-16Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-10/+16
In the next commit, we want to disallow accessing any path that contains any segment that is equivalent to `NUL`. In particular, we want to disallow accessing `NUL` (e.g. to prevent any repository from being checked out that contains a file called `NUL`, as that is not a valid file name on Windows). However, there are legitimate use cases within Git itself to write to the Null device. As Git is really a Linux project, it does not abstract that idea, though, but instead uses `/dev/null` to describe this intention. So let's side-step the validation _specifically_ in the case that we want to write to (or read from) `/dev/null`, via a dedicated short-cut in the code that skips the call to `validate_win32_path()`.

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.

While the only permitted drive letters for physical drives on Windows are letters of the US-English alphabet, this restriction does not apply to virtual drives assigned via `subst <letter>: <path>`.

2019-12-05mingw: handle `subst`-ed "DOS drives"Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+24
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.

2019-12-05mingw: refuse to access paths with trailing spaces or periodsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+56
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.

2019-12-05mingw: refuse to access paths with illegal charactersLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+10
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.

2019-12-05mingw: fix quoting of argumentsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-3/+6
We need to be careful to follow proper quoting rules. For example, if an argument contains spaces, we have to quote them. Double-quotes need to be escaped. Backslashes need to be escaped, but only if they are followed by a double-quote character. We need to be _extra_ careful to consider the case where an argument ends in a backslash _and_ needs to be quoted: in this case, we append a double-quote character, i.e. the backslash now has to be escaped! The current code, however, fails to recognize that, and therefore can turn an argument that ends in a single backslash into a quoted argument that now ends in an escaped double-quote character. This allows subsequent command-line parameters to be split and part of them being mistaken for command-line options, e.g. through a maliciously-crafted submodule URL during a recursive clone. Technically, we would not need to quote _all_ arguments which end in a backslash _unless_ the argument needs to be quoted anyway. For example, `test\` would not need to be quoted, while `test \` would need to be. To keep the code simple, however, and therefore easier to reason about and ensure its correctness, we now _always_ quote an argument that ends in a backslash. This addresses CVE-2019-1350.

The only purpose of this function is to map Win32 API errors to `errno` ones, and there is actually no equivalent to `ERROR_SUCCESS`: the idea of `errno` is that it will only be set in case of an error, and left alone in case of success.

2019-11-30mingw: do set `errno` correctly when trying to restrict handle inheritanceLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+5
In 9a780a384de (mingw: spawned processes need to inherit only standard handles, 2019-11-22), we taught the Windows-specific part to restrict which file handles are passed on to the spawned processes. Since this logic seemed to be a bit fragile across Windows versions (we _still_ support Windows Vista in Git for Windows, for example), a fall-back was added to try spawning the process again, this time without restricting which file handles are to be inherited by the spawned process. In the common case (i.e. when the process could not be spawned for reasons _other_ than the file handle inheritance), the fall-back attempt would still fail, of course. Crucially, one thing we missed in that code path was to set `errno` appropriately. This should have been caught by t0061.2 which expected `errno` to be `ENOENT` after trying to start a process for a non-existing executable, but `errno` was set to `ENOENT` prior to the `CreateProcessW()` call: while looking for the config settings for trace2, Git tries to access `xdg_config` and `user_config` via `access_or_die()`, and as neither of those config files exists when running the test case (because in Git's test suite, `HOME` points to the test directory), the `errno` has the expected value, but for the wrong reasons. Let's fix that by making sure that `errno` is set correctly. It even appears that `errno` was set in the _wrong_ case previously: `CreateProcessW()` returns non-zero upon success, but `errno` was set only in the non-zero case. It would be nice if we could somehow fix t0061 to make sure that this does not regress again. One approach that seemed like it should work, but did not, was to set `errno` to 0 in the test helper that is used by t0061.2. However, when `mingw_spawnvpe()` wants to see whether the file in question is a script, it calls `parse_interpreter()`, which in turn tries to `open()` the file. Obviously, this call fails, and sets `errno` to `ENOENT`, deep inside the call chain started from that test helper. Instead, we force re-set `errno` at the beginning of the function `mingw_spawnve_fd()`, which _should_ be safe given that callers of that function will want to look at `errno` if -1 was returned. And if that `errno` is 0 ("No error"), regression tests like t0061.2 will kick in.

Turns out that it don't work so well on Vista, see https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1742 for details. According to https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/?p=8873, it *should* work on Windows Vista and later. But apparently there are issues on Windows Vista when pipes are involved. Given that Windows Vista is past its end of life (official support ended on April 11th, 2017), let's not spend *too* much time on this issue and just disable the file handle inheritance restriction on any Windows version earlier than Windows 7.

2019-11-23mingw: spawned processes need to inherit only standard handlesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-11/+109
By default, CreateProcess() does not inherit any open file handles, unless the bInheritHandles parameter is set to TRUE. Which we do need to set because we need to pass in stdin/stdout/stderr to talk to the child processes. Sadly, this means that all file handles (unless marked via O_NOINHERIT) are inherited. This lead to problems in VFS for Git, where a long-running read-object hook is used to hydrate missing objects, and depending on the circumstances, might only be called *after* Git opened a file handle. Ideally, we would not open files without O_NOINHERIT unless *really* necessary (i.e. when we want to pass the opened file handle as standard handle into a child process), but apparently it is all-too-easy to introduce incorrect open() calls: this happened, and prevented updating a file after the read-object hook was started because the hook still held a handle on said file. Happily, there is a solution: as described in the "Old New Thing" https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20111216-00/?p=8873 there is a way, starting with Windows Vista, that lets us define precisely which handles should be inherited by the child process. And since we bumped the minimum Windows version for use with Git for Windows to Vista with v2.10.1 (i.e. a *long* time ago), we can use this method. So let's do exactly that. We need to make sure that the list of handles to inherit does not contain duplicates; Otherwise CreateProcessW() would fail with ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT. While at it, stop setting errno to ENOENT unless it really is the correct value. Also, fall back to not limiting handle inheritance under certain error conditions (e.g. on Windows 7, which is a lot stricter in what handles you can specify to limit to).

2019-11-13mingw: use COPY_ARRAY for copying arrayLibravatar René Scharfe1-1/+1
Use the macro COPY_ARRAY to copy array elements. The result is shorter and safer, as it infers the element type automatically and does a (very) basic type compatibility check for its first two arguments. Coccinelle and contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci did not generate this conversion due to the offset of 1 at both source and destination and because the source is a const pointer; the semantic patch cautiously handles only pure pointers and array references of the same type.

2019-10-09Merge branch 'js/diff-rename-force-stable-sort'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+3
The rename detection logic sorts a list of rename source candidates by similarity to pick the best candidate, which means that a tie between sources with the same similarity is broken by the original location in the original candidate list (which is sorted by path). Force the sorting by similarity done with a stable sort, which is not promised by system supplied qsort(3), to ensure consistent results across platforms. * js/diff-rename-force-stable-sort: diffcore_rename(): use a stable sort Move git_sort(), a stable sort, into into libgit.a
2019-10-06msvc: work around a bug in GetEnvironmentVariable()Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+2
The return value of that function is 0 both for variables that are unset, as well as for variables whose values are empty. To discern those two cases, one has to call `GetLastError()`, whose return value is `ERROR_ENVVAR_NOT_FOUND` and `ERROR_SUCCESS`, respectively. Except that it is not actually set to `ERROR_SUCCESS` in the latter case, apparently, but the last error value seems to be simply unchanged. To work around this, let's just re-set the last error value just before inspecting the environment variable. This fixes a problem that triggers failures in t3301-notes.sh (where we try to override config settings by passing empty values for certain environment variables). This problem is hidden in the MINGW build by the fact that older MSVC runtimes (such as the one used by MINGW builds) have a `calloc()` that re-sets the last error value in case of success, while newer runtimes set the error value only if `NULL` is returned by that function.

2019-10-02Move git_sort(), a stable sort, into into libgit.aLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-8/+3
The `qsort()` function is not guaranteed to be stable, i.e. it does not promise to maintain the order of items it is told to consider equal. In contrast, the `git_sort()` function we carry in `compat/qsort.c` _is_ stable, by virtue of implementing a merge sort algorithm. In preparation for using a stable sort in Git's rename detection, move the stable sort into `libgit.a` so that it is compiled in unconditionally, and rename it to `git_stable_qsort()`. Note: this also makes the hack obsolete that was introduced in fe21c6b285d (mingw: reencode environment variables on the fly (UTF-16 <-> UTF-8), 2018-10-30), where we included `compat/qsort.c` directly in `compat/mingw.c` to use the stable sort.

After running Coccinelle on all sources inside compat/ that were created by us[1], it was found that compat/mingw.c violated an array.cocci rule in two places and, thus, a patch was generated. Apply this patch so that all compat/ sources created by us follows all cocci rules. [1]: Do not run Coccinelle on files that are taken from some upstream because in case we need to pull updates from them, we would like to have diverged as little as possible in order to make merging updates simpler.

2019-08-26mingw: fix launching of externals from Unicode pathsLibravatar Adam Roben1-4/+11
If Git were installed in a path containing non-ASCII characters, commands such as `git am` and `git submodule`, which are implemented as externals, would fail to launch with the following error: > fatal: 'am' appears to be a git command, but we were not > able to execute it. Maybe git-am is broken? This was due to lookup_prog not being Unicode-aware. It was somehow missed in 85faec9d3a (Win32: Unicode file name support (except dirent), 2012-03-15). Note that the only problem in this function was calling `GetFileAttributes()` instead of `GetFileAttributesW()`. The calls to `access()` were fine because `access()` is a macro which resolves to `mingw_access()`, which already handles Unicode correctly. But `lookup_prog()` was changed to use `_waccess()` directly so that we only convert the path to UTF-16 once. To make things work correctly, we have to maintain UTF-8 and UTF-16 versions in tandem in `lookup_prog()`.

On some older Windows versions (e.g. Windows 7), the CreateProcessW() function does not really support spaces in its first argument, lpApplicationName. But it supports passing NULL as lpApplicationName, which makes it figure out the application from the (possibly quoted) first argument of lpCommandLine. Let's use that trick (if we are certain that the first argument matches the executable's path) to support launching programs whose path contains spaces. We will abuse the test-fake-ssh.exe helper to verify that this works and does not regress.

HOME initialization was historically duplicated in many different places, including /etc/profile, launch scripts such as git-bash.vbs and gitk.cmd, and (although slightly broken) in the git-wrapper. Even unrelated projects such as GitExtensions and TortoiseGit need to implement the same logic to be able to call git directly.

2019-06-27mingw: use Unicode functions explicitlyLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
Many Win32 API functions actually exist in two variants: one with the `A` suffix that takes ANSI parameters (`char *` or `const char *`) and one with the `W` suffix that takes Unicode parameters (`wchar_t *` or `const wchar_t *`). The ANSI variant assumes that the strings are encoded according to whatever is the current locale. This is not what Git wants to use on Windows: we assume that `char *` variables point to strings encoded in UTF-8. There is a pseudo UTF-8 locale on Windows, but it does not work as one might expect. In addition, if we overrode the user's locale, that would modify the behavior of programs spawned by Git (such as editors, difftools, etc), therefore we cannot use that pseudo locale. Further, it is actually highly encouraged to use the Unicode versions instead of the ANSI versions, so let's do precisely that. Note: when calling the Win32 API functions _without_ any suffix, it depends whether the `UNICODE` constant is defined before the relevant headers are #include'd. Without that constant, the ANSI variants are used. Let's be explicit and avoid that ambiguity.

2019-06-25msvc: avoid debug assertion windows in Debug ModeLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
For regular debugging, it is pretty helpful when a debug assertion in a running application triggers a window that offers to start the debugger. However, when running the test suite, it is not so helpful, in particular when the debug assertions are then suppressed anyway because we disable the invalid parameter checking (via invalidcontinue.obj, see the comment in config.mak.uname about that object for more information). So let's simply disable that window in Debug Mode (it is already disabled in Release Mode).
