2015-11-11http: fix some printf format warningsLibravatar Ramsay Jones1-4/+4
Commit f8117f55 ("http: use off_t to store partial file size", 02-11-2015) changed the type of some variables from long to off_t. Unfortunately, the off_t type is not portable and can be represented by several different actual types (even multiple types on the same platform). This makes it difficult to print an off_t variable in a platform independent way. As a result, this commit causes gcc to issue some printf format warnings on a couple of different platforms. In order to suppress the warnings, change the format specifier to use the PRIuMAX macro and cast the off_t argument to uintmax_t. (See also the http_opt_request_remainder() function, which uses the same solution). Signed-off-by: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsayjones.plus.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2015-11-02http: use off_t to store partial file sizeLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+4
When we try to resume transfer of a partially-downloaded object or pack, we fopen() the existing file for append, then use ftell() to get the current position. We use a "long", which can hold only 2GB on a 32-bit system, even though packfiles may be larger than that. Let's switch to using off_t, which should hold any file size our system is capable of storing. We need to use ftello() to get the off_t. This is in POSIX and hopefully available everywhere; if not, we should be able to wrap it by falling back to ftell(), which would presumably return "-1" on such a large file (and we would simply skip resuming in that case).

2015-11-02http.c: use CURLOPT_RANGE for range requestsLibravatar David Turner1-21/+12
A HTTP server is permitted to return a non-range response to a HTTP range request (and Apache httpd in fact does this in some cases). While libcurl knows how to correctly handle this (by skipping bytes before and after the requested range), it only turns on this handling if it is aware that a range request is being made. By manually setting the range header instead of using CURLOPT_RANGE, we were hiding the fact that this was a range request from libcurl. This could cause corruption.

By default, libcurl will follow circular http redirects forever.

2015-09-25http: limit redirection to protocol-whitelistLibravatar Blake Burkhart1-0/+17
Previously, libcurl would follow redirection to any protocol it was compiled for support with. This is desirable to allow redirection from HTTP to HTTPS. However, it would even successfully allow redirection from HTTP to SFTP, a protocol that git does not otherwise support at all. Furthermore git's new protocol-whitelisting could be bypassed by following a redirect within the remote helper, as it was only enforced at transport selection time. This patch limits redirects within libcurl to HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS. If there is a protocol-whitelist present, this list is limited to those also allowed by the whitelist. As redirection happens from within libcurl, it is impossible for an HTTP redirect to a protocol implemented within another remote helper. When the curl version git was compiled with is too old to support restrictions on protocol redirection, we warn the user if GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL restrictions were requested. This is a little inaccurate, as even without that variable in the environment, we would still restrict SFTP, etc, and we do not warn in that case. But anything else means we would literally warn every time git accesses an http remote. This commit includes a test, but it is not as robust as we would hope. It redirects an http request to ftp, and checks that curl complained about the protocol, which means that we are relying on curl's specific error message to know what happened. Ideally we would redirect to a working ftp server and confirm that we can clone without protocol restrictions, and not with them. But we do not have a portable way of providing an ftp server, nor any other protocol that curl supports (https is the closest, but we would have to deal with certificates).

2015-09-25use strip_suffix and xstrfmt to replace suffixLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+4
When we want to convert "foo.pack" to "foo.idx", we do it by duplicating the original string and then munging the bytes in place. Let's use strip_suffix and xstrfmt instead, which has several advantages: 1. It's more clear what the intent is. 2. It does not implicitly rely on the fact that strlen(".idx") <= strlen(".pack") to avoid an overflow. 3. We communicate the assumption that the input file ends with ".pack" (and get a run-time check that this is so). 4. We drop calls to strcpy, which makes auditing the code base easier. Likewise, we can do this to convert ".pack" to ".bitmap", avoiding some manual memory computation. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-09-25convert trivial sprintf / strcpy calls to xsnprintfLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+3
We sometimes sprintf into fixed-size buffers when we know that the buffer is large enough to fit the input (either because it's a constant, or because it's numeric input that is bounded in size). Likewise with strcpy of constant strings. However, these sites make it hard to audit sprintf and strcpy calls for buffer overflows, as a reader has to cross-reference the size of the array with the input. Let's use xsnprintf instead, which communicates to a reader that we don't expect this to overflow (and catches the mistake in case we do).

Since 5a688fe4 ("core.sharedrepository = 0mode" should set, not loosen, 2009-03-25), we kept reminding ourselves: NEEDSWORK: this should be renamed to finalize_temp_file() as "moving" is only a part of what it does, when no patch between master to pu changes the call sites of this function. without doing anything about it. Let's do so. The purpose of this function was not to move but to finalize. The detail of the primarily implementation of finalizing was to link the temporary file to its final name and then to unlink, which wasn't even "moving". The alternative implementation did "move" by calling rename(2), which is a fun tangent. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

We used to ask libCURL to use the most secure authentication method available when talking to an HTTP proxy only when we were told to talk to one via configuration variables.

We set CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH to use the most secure authentication method available only when the user has set configuration variables to specify a proxy. However, libcurl also supports specifying a proxy through environment variables. In that case libcurl defaults to only using the Basic proxy authentication method, because we do not use CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH. Set CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH to always use the most secure authentication method available, even when there is no git configuration telling us to use a proxy.

Add an Accept-Language header which indicates the user's preferred languages defined by $LANGUAGE, $LC_ALL, $LC_MESSAGES and $LANG. Examples: LANGUAGE= -> "" LANGUAGE=ko:en -> "Accept-Language: ko, en;q=0.9, *;q=0.1" LANGUAGE=ko LANG=en_US.UTF-8 -> "Accept-Language: ko, *;q=0.1" LANGUAGE= LANG=en_US.UTF-8 -> "Accept-Language: en-US, *;q=0.1" This gives git servers a chance to display remote error messages in the user's preferred language. Limit the number of languages to 1,000 because q-value must not be smaller than 0.001, and limit the length of Accept-Language header to 4,000 bytes for some HTTP servers which cannot accept such long header.

2015-01-27dumb-http: do not pass NULL path to parse_pack_indexLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Once upon a time, dumb http always fetched .idx files directly into their final location, and then checked their validity with parse_pack_index. This was refactored in commit 750ef42 (http-fetch: Use temporary files for pack-*.idx until verified, 2010-04-19), which uses the following logic: 1. If we have the idx already in place, see if it's valid (using parse_pack_index). If so, use it. 2. Otherwise, fetch the .idx to a tempfile, check that, and if so move it into place. 3. Either way, fetch the pack itself if necessary. However, it got step 1 wrong. We pass a NULL path parameter to parse_pack_index, so an existing .idx file always looks broken. Worse, we do not treat this broken .idx as an opportunity to re-fetch, but instead return an error, ignoring the pack entirely. This can lead to a dumb-http fetch failing to retrieve the necessary objects. This doesn't come up much in practice, because it must be a packfile that we found out about (and whose .idx we stored) during an earlier dumb-http fetch, but whose packfile we _didn't_ fetch. I.e., we did a partial clone of a repository, didn't need some packfiles, and now a followup fetch needs them. Discovery and tests by Charles Bailey <charles@hashpling.org>.

2015-01-07remote-curl: fall back to Basic auth if Negotiate failsLibravatar brian m. carlson1-0/+10
Apache servers using mod_auth_kerb can be configured to allow the user to authenticate either using Negotiate (using the Kerberos ticket) or Basic authentication (using the Kerberos password). Often, one will want to use Negotiate authentication if it is available, but fall back to Basic authentication if the ticket is missing or expired. However, libcurl will try very hard to use something other than Basic auth, even over HTTPS. If Basic and something else are offered, libcurl will never attempt to use Basic, even if the other option fails. Teach the HTTP client code to stop trying authentication mechanisms that don't use a password (currently Negotiate) after the first failure, since if they failed the first time, they will never succeed.

2014-05-27http: extract type/subtype portion of content-typeLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+35
When we get a content-type from curl, we get the whole header line, including any parameters, and without any normalization (like downcasing or whitespace) applied. If we later try to match it with strcmp() or even strcasecmp(), we may get false negatives. This could cause two visible behaviors: 1. We might fail to recognize a smart-http server by its content-type. 2. We might fail to relay text/plain error messages to users (especially if they contain a charset parameter). This patch teaches the http code to extract and normalize just the type/subtype portion of the string. This is technically passing out less information to the callers, who can no longer see the parameters. But none of the current callers cares, and a future patch will add back an easier-to-use method for accessing those parameters.
