Apparently this is not supported with Microsoft's Universal C Runtime.
So let's not actually do that.
Instead, just return success because we _know_ that we expect the `NUL`
device to be present.
Side note: it is possible to turn off the "Null device driver" and
thereby disable `NUL`. Too many things are broken if this driver is
disabled, therefore it is not worth bothering to try to detect its
presence when `access()` is called.

Before checking out a file, we have to confirm that all of its leading
components are real existing directories. And to reduce the number of
lstat() calls in this process, we cache the last leading path known to
contain only directories. However, when a path collision occurs (e.g.
when checking out case-sensitive files in case-insensitive file
systems), a cached path might have its file type changed on disk,
leaving the cache on an invalid state. Normally, this doesn't bring
any bad consequences as we usually check out files in index order, and
therefore, by the time the cached path becomes outdated, we no longer
need it anyway (because all files in that directory would have already
been written).
But, there are some users of the checkout machinery that do not always
follow the index order. In particular: checkout-index writes the paths
in the same order that they appear on the CLI (or stdin); and the
delayed checkout feature -- used when a long-running filter process
replies with "status=delayed" -- postpones the checkout of some entries,
thus modifying the checkout order.
When we have to check out an out-of-order entry and the lstat() cache is
invalid (due to a previous path collision), checkout_entry() may end up
using the invalid data and thrusting that the leading components are
real directories when, in reality, they are not. In the best case
scenario, where the directory was replaced by a regular file, the user
will get an error: "fatal: unable to create file 'foo/bar': Not a
directory". But if the directory was replaced by a symlink, checkout
could actually end up following the symlink and writing the file at a
wrong place, even outside the repository. Since delayed checkout is
affected by this bug, it could be used by an attacker to write
arbitrary files during the clone of a maliciously crafted repository.
Some candidate solutions considered were to disable the lstat() cache
during unordered checkouts or sort the entries before passing them to
the checkout machinery. But both ideas include some performance penalty
and they don't future-proof the code against new unordered use cases.
Instead, we now manually reset the lstat cache whenever we successfully
remove a directory. Note: We are not even checking whether the directory
was the same as the lstat cache points to because we might face a
scenario where the paths refer to the same location but differ due to
case folding, precomposed UTF-8 issues, or the presence of `..`
components in the path. Two regression tests, with case-collisions and
utf8-collisions, are also added for both checkout-index and delayed
checkout.
Note: to make the previously mentioned clone attack unfeasible, it would
be sufficient to reset the lstat cache only after the remove_subtree()
call inside checkout_entry(). This is the place where we would remove a
directory whose path collides with the path of another entry that we are
currently trying to check out (possibly a symlink). However, in the
interest of a thorough fix that does not leave Git open to
similar-but-not-identical attack vectors, we decided to intercept
all `rmdir()` calls in one fell swoop.
This addresses CVE-2021-21300.

"unlink" emulation on MinGW has been optimized.
* jh/mingw-unlink:
mingw: improve performance of mingw_unlink()
|
|
Update mingw_unlink() to first try to delete the file with existing
permissions before trying to force it.
Windows throws an error when trying to delete a read-only file. The
mingw_unlink() compatibility wrapper always tries to _wchmod(666) the
file before calling _wunlink() to avoid that error. However, since
most files in the worktree are already writable, this is usually
wasted effort.
Update mingw_unlink() to just call DeleteFileW() directly and if that
succeeds return. If that fails, fall back into the existing code path
to update the permissions and use _wunlink() to get the existing
error code mapping.

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec
consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once,
or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits.
Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).
This patch converts remaining files from the first half of the alphabet,
to keep the diff to a manageable size.
The conversion was done purely mechanically with:
git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
xargs perl -i -pe '
s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
s/argv_array/strvec/g;
'
and then selectively staging files with "git add '[abcdefghjkl]*'".
We'll deal with any indentation/style fallouts separately.

* js/mingw-isilon-nfs:
mingw: cope with the Isilon network file system
|
|
On certain network filesystems (currently encountered with Isilon, but
in theory more network storage solutions could be causing the same
issue), when the directory in question is missing,
`raceproof_create_file()` fails with an `ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER`
instead of an `ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND`.
Since it is highly unlikely that we produce such an error by mistake
(the parameters we pass are fairly benign), we can be relatively certain
that the directory is missing in this instance. So let's just translate
that error automagically.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1345.

MSYS2's strace facility is very useful for debugging... With this patch,
the bash will be executed through strace if the environment variable
GIT_STRACE_COMMANDS is set, which comes in real handy when investigating
issues in the test suite.
Also support passing a path to a log file via GIT_STRACE_COMMANDS to
force Git to call strace.exe with the `-o <path>` argument, i.e. to log
into a file rather than print the log directly.
That comes in handy when the output would otherwise misinterpreted by a
calling process as part of Git's output.
Note: the values "1", "yes" or "true" are *not* specifying paths, but
tell Git to let strace.exe log directly to the console.

In 4dc42c6c186 (mingw: refuse paths containing reserved names,
2019-12-21), we started disallowing file names that are reserved, e.g.
`NUL`, `CONOUT$`, etc.
This included `COM<n>` where `<n>` is a digit. Unfortunately, this
includes `COM0` but only `COM1`, ..., `COM9` are reserved, according to
the official documentation, `COM0` is mentioned in the "NT Namespaces"
section but it is explicitly _omitted_ from the list of reserved names:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file#naming-conventions
Tests corroborate this: it is totally possible to write a file called
`com0.c` on Windows 10, but not `com1.c`.
So let's tighten the code to disallow only the reserved `COM<n>` file
names, but to allow `COM0` again.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2470.

Microsoft introduced a new "Universal C Runtime Library" (UCRT) with
Visual Studio 2015. The UCRT comes with a new strftime() implementation
that supports more date formats. We link git against the older
"Microsoft Visual C Runtime Library" (MSVCRT), so to use the UCRT
strftime() we need to load it from ucrtbase.dll using
DECLARE_PROC_ADDR()/INIT_PROC_ADDR().
Most supported Windows systems should have recieved the UCRT via Windows
update, but in some cases only MSVCRT might be available. In that case
we fall back to using that implementation.
With this change, it is possible to use e.g. the `%g` and `%V` date
format specifiers, e.g.
git show -s --format=%cd --date=format:‘%g.%V’ HEAD
Without this change, the user would see this error message on Windows:
fatal: invalid strftime format: '‘%g.%V’'

When debugging Git, the criss-cross spawning of processes can make
things quite a bit difficult, especially when a Unix shell script is
thrown in the mix that calls a `git.exe` that then segfaults.
To help debugging such things, we introduce the `open_in_gdb()` function
which can be called at a code location where the segfault happens (or as
close as one can get); This will open a new MinTTY window with a GDB
that already attached to the current process.

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

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()`.

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>`.
To prevent targeted attacks against systems where "funny" drive letters
such as `1` or `!` are assigned, let's handle them as regular drive
letters on Windows.
This fixes CVE-2019-1351.

On Windows, filenames cannot have trailing spaces or periods, when
opening such paths, they are stripped automatically. Read: you can open
the file `README` via the file name `README . . .`. This ambiguity can
be used in combination with other security bugs to cause e.g. remote
code execution during recursive clones. This patch series fixes that.

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.

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.

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.
