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.

2019-12-05Merge branch 'win32-accommodate-funny-drive-names'Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+34
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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

2019-06-25msvc: support building Git using MS Visual C++Libravatar Jeff Hostetler1-0/+6
With this patch, Git can be built using the Microsoft toolchain, via: make MSVC=1 [DEBUG=1] Third party libraries are built from source using the open source "vcpkg" tool set. See https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg On a first build, the vcpkg tools and the third party libraries are automatically downloaded and built. DLLs for the third party libraries are copied to the top-level (and t/helper) directory to facilitate debugging. See compat/vcbuild/README. A series of .bat files are invoked by the Makefile to find the location of the installed version of Visual Studio and the associated compiler tools (essentially replicating the environment setup performed by a "Developer Command Prompt"). This should find the most recent VS2015 or VS2017 installation. Output from these scripts are used by the Makefile to define compiler and linker pathnames and -I and -L arguments. The build produces .pdb files for both debug and release builds. Note: This commit was squashed from an organic series of commits developed between 2016 and 2018 in Git for Windows' `master` branch. This combined commit eliminates the obsolete commits related to fetching NuGet packages for third party libraries. It is difficult to use NuGet packages for C/C++ sources because they may be built by earlier versions of the MSVC compiler and have CRT version and linking issues. Additionally, the C/C++ NuGet packages that we were using tended to not be updated concurrently with the sources. And in the case of cURL and OpenSSL, this could expose us to security issues.

2019-06-20mingw: replace mingw_startup() hackLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-19/+34
Git for Windows has special code to retrieve the command-line parameters (and even the environment) in UTF-16 encoding, so that they can be converted to UTF-8. This is necessary because Git for Windows wants to use UTF-8 encoded strings throughout its code, and the main() function does not get the parameters in that encoding. To do that, we used the __wgetmainargs() function, which is not even a Win32 API function, but provided by the MINGW "runtime" instead. Obviously, this method would not work with any compiler other than GCC, and in preparation for compiling with Visual C++, we would like to avoid precisely that. Lucky us, there is a much more elegant way: we can simply implement the UTF-16 variant of `main()`: `wmain()`. To make that work, we need to link with -municode. The command-line parameters are passed to `wmain()` encoded in UTF-16, as desired, and this method also works with GCC, and also with Visual C++ after adjusting the MSVC linker flags to force it to use `wmain()`.

2019-02-22trace2: create new combined trace facilityLibravatar Jeff Hostetler1-1/+10
Create a new unified tracing facility for git. The eventual intent is to replace the current trace_printf* and trace_performance* routines with a unified set of git_trace2* routines. In addition to the usual printf-style API, trace2 provides higer-level event verbs with fixed-fields allowing structured data to be written. This makes post-processing and analysis easier for external tools. Trace2 defines 3 output targets. These are set using the environment variables "GIT_TR2", "GIT_TR2_PERF", and "GIT_TR2_EVENT". These may be set to "1" or to an absolute pathname (just like the current GIT_TRACE). * GIT_TR2 is intended to be a replacement for GIT_TRACE and logs command summary data. * GIT_TR2_PERF is intended as a replacement for GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE. It extends the output with columns for the command process, thread, repo, absolute and relative elapsed times. It reports events for child process start/stop, thread start/stop, and per-thread function nesting. * GIT_TR2_EVENT is a new structured format. It writes event data as a series of JSON records. Calls to trace2 functions log to any of the 3 output targets enabled without the need to call different trace_printf* or trace_performance* routines.

2019-02-15mingw: safe-guard a bit more against getenv() problemsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
Running up to v2.21.0, we fixed two bugs that were made prominent by the Windows-specific change to retain copies of only the 30 latest getenv() calls' returned strings, invalidating any copies of previous getenv() calls' return values. While this really shines a light onto bugs of the form where we hold onto getenv()'s return values without copying them, it is also a real problem for users. And even if Jeff King's patches merged via 773e408881 (Merge branch 'jk/save-getenv-result', 2019-01-29) provide further work on that front, we are far from done. Just one example: on Windows, we unset environment variables when spawning new processes, which potentially invalidates strings that were previously obtained via getenv(), and therefore we have to duplicate environment values that are somehow involved in spawning new processes (e.g. GIT_MAN_VIEWER in show_man_page()). We do not have a chance to investigate, let address, all of those issues in time for v2.21.0, so let's at least help Windows users by increasing the number of getenv() calls' return values that are kept valid. The number 64 was determined by looking at the average number of getenv() calls per process in the entire test suite run on Windows (which is around 40) and then adding a bit for good measure. And it is a power of two (which would have hit yesterday's theme perfectly). Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-01-29mingw: be more generous when wrapping up the setitimer() emulationLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
Every once in a while, the Azure Pipeline fails with some semi-random error: timer thread did not terminate timely This error message means that the thread that is used to emulate the setitimer() function did not terminate within 1,000 milliseconds. The most likely explanation (and therefore the one we should assume to be true, according to Occam's Razor) is that the timeout of one second is simply not enough because we try to run so many tasks in parallel. So let's give it ten seconds instead of only one. That should be enough. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-01-18mingw: special-case arguments to `sh`Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+76
The MSYS2 runtime does its best to emulate the command-line wildcard expansion and de-quoting which would be performed by the calling Unix shell on Unix systems. Those Unix shell quoting rules differ from the quoting rules applying to Windows' cmd and Powershell, making it a little awkward to quote command-line parameters properly when spawning other processes. In particular, git.exe passes arguments to subprocesses that are *not* intended to be interpreted as wildcards, and if they contain backslashes, those are not to be interpreted as escape characters, e.g. when passing Windows paths. Note: this is only a problem when calling MSYS2 executables, not when calling MINGW executables such as git.exe. However, we do call MSYS2 executables frequently, most notably when setting the use_shell flag in the child_process structure. There is no elegant way to determine whether the .exe file to be executed is an MSYS2 program or a MINGW one. But since the use case of passing a command line through the shell is so prevalent, we need to work around this issue at least when executing sh.exe. Let's introduce an ugly, hard-coded test whether argv[0] is "sh", and whether it refers to the MSYS2 Bash, to determine whether we need to quote the arguments differently than usual. That still does not fix the issue completely, but at least it is something. Incidentally, this also fixes the problem where `git clone \\server\repo` failed due to incorrect handling of the backslashes when handing the path to the git-upload-pack process. Further, we need to take care to quote not only whitespace and backslashes, but also curly brackets. As aliases frequently go through the MSYS2 Bash, and as aliases frequently get parameters such as HEAD@{yesterday}, this is really important. As an early version of this patch broke this, let's make sure that this does not regress by adding a test case for that.

2018-12-26git clone <url> C:\cygwin\home\USER\repo' is working (again)Libravatar Torsten Bögershausen1-28/+1
A regression for cygwin users was introduced with commit 05b458c, "real_path: resolve symlinks by hand". In the the commit message we read: The current implementation of real_path uses chdir() in order to resolve symlinks. Unfortunately this isn't thread-safe as chdir() affects a process as a whole... The old (and non-thread-save) OS calls chdir()/pwd() had been replaced by a string operation. The cygwin layer "knows" that "C:\cygwin" is an absolute path, but the new string operation does not. "git clone <url> C:\cygwin\home\USER\repo" fails like this: fatal: Invalid path '/home/USER/repo/C:\cygwin\home\USER\repo' The solution is to implement has_dos_drive_prefix(), skip_dos_drive_prefix() is_dir_sep(), offset_1st_component() and convert_slashes() for cygwin in the same way as it is done in 'Git for Windows' in compat/mingw.[ch] Extract the needed code into compat/win32/path-utils.[ch] and use it for cygwin as well.

Git for Windows ships with its own Perl interpreter, and insists on using it, so it will most likely wreak havoc if PERL5LIB is set before launching Git. Let's just unset that environment variables when spawning processes. To make this feature extensible (and overrideable), there is a new config setting `core.unsetenvvars` that allows specifying a comma-separated list of names to unset before spawning processes.
