2016-08-15clone: factor out checking for an alternate pathLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+76
In a later patch we want to determine if a path is suitable as an alternate from other commands than builtin/clone. Move the checking functionality of `add_one_reference` to `compute_alternate_path` that is defined in cache.h.

"git pack-objects" and "git index-pack" mostly operate with off_t when talking about the offset of objects in a packfile, but there were a handful of places that used "unsigned long" to hold that value, leading to an unintended truncation. * nd/pack-ofs-4gb-limit: fsck: use streaming interface for large blobs in pack pack-objects: do not truncate result in-pack object size on 32-bit systems index-pack: correct "offset" type in unpack_entry_data() index-pack: report correct bad object offsets even if they are large index-pack: correct "len" type in unpack_data() sha1_file.c: use type off_t* for object_info->disk_sizep pack-objects: pass length to check_pack_crc() without truncation
2016-07-12pack-objects: pass length to check_pack_crc() without truncationLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
On 32 bit systems with large file support, unsigned long is 32-bit while the two offsets in the subtraction expression (pack-objects has the exact same expression as in sha1_file.c but not shown in diff) are in 64-bit. If an in-pack object is larger than 2^32 len/datalen is truncated and we get a misleading "error: bad packed object CRC for ..." as a result. Use off_t for len and datalen. check_pack_crc() already accepts this argument as off_t and can deal with 4+ GB.

2016-02-25use_pack: handle signed off_t overflowLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
A v2 pack index file can specify an offset within a packfile of up to 2^64-1 bytes. On a system with a signed 64-bit off_t, we can represent only up to 2^63-1. This means that a corrupted .idx file can end up with a negative offset in the pack code. Our bounds-checking use_pack function looks for too-large offsets, but not for ones that have wrapped around to negative. Let's do so, which fixes an out-of-bounds access demonstrated in t5313.

2016-02-25nth_packed_object_offset: bounds-check extended offsetLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+15
If a pack .idx file has a corrupted offset for an object, we may try to access an offset in the .idx or .pack file that is larger than the file's size. For the .pack case, we have use_pack() to protect us, which realizes the access is out of bounds. But if the corrupted value asks us to look in the .idx file's secondary 64-bit offset table, we blindly add it to the mmap'd index data and access arbitrary memory. We can fix this with a simple bounds-check compared to the size we found when we opened the .idx file. Note that there's similar code in index-pack that is triggered only during "index-pack --verify". To support both, we pull the bounds-check into a separate function, which dies when it sees a corrupted file. It would be nice if we could return an error, so that the pack code could try to find a good copy of the object elsewhere. Currently nth_packed_object_offset doesn't have any way to return an error, but it could probably use "0" as a sentinel value (since no object can start there). This is the minimal fix, and we can improve the resilience later on top. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

If our size computation overflows size_t, we may allocate a much smaller buffer than we expected and overflow it.

2016-01-15strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged. By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter. This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(), namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of them. The changes contained in this patch are: * introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch] * mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the respective thin wrapper. After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take over the shorter name strbuf_getline(). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-10-05avoid sprintf and strcpy with flex arraysLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+3
When we are allocating a struct with a FLEX_ARRAY member, we generally compute the size of the array and then sprintf or strcpy into it. Normally we could improve a dynamic allocation like this by using xstrfmt, but it doesn't work here; we have to account for the size of the rest of the struct. But we can improve things a bit by storing the length that we use for the allocation, and then feeding it to xsnprintf or memcpy, which makes it more obvious that we are not writing more than the allocated number of bytes. It would be nice if we had some kind of helper for allocating generic flex arrays, but it doesn't work that well: - the call signature is a little bit unwieldy: d = flex_struct(sizeof(*d), offsetof(d, path), fmt, ...); You need offsetof here instead of just writing to the end of the base size, because we don't know how the struct is packed (partially this is because FLEX_ARRAY might not be zero, though we can account for that; but the size of the struct may actually be rounded up for alignment, and we can't know that). - some sites do clever things, like over-allocating because they know they will write larger things into the buffer later (e.g., struct packed_git here). So we're better off to just write out each allocation (or add type-specific helpers, though many of these are one-off allocations anyway).

2015-10-05write_loose_object: convert to strbufLibravatar Jeff King1-20/+22
When creating a loose object tempfile, we use a fixed PATH_MAX-sized buffer, and strcpy directly into it. This isn't buggy, because we do a rough check of the size, but there's no verification that our guesstimate of the required space is enough (in fact, it's several bytes too big for the current naming scheme). Let's switch to a strbuf, which makes this much easier to verify. The allocation overhead should be negligible, since we are replacing a static buffer with a static strbuf, and we'll only need to allocate on the first call. While we're here, we can also document a subtle interaction with mkstemp that would be easy to overlook. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-09-25sha1_get_pack_name: use a strbufLibravatar Jeff King1-29/+10
We do some manual memory computation here, and there's no check that our 60 is not overflowed by the raw sprintf (it isn't, because the "which" parameter is never longer than "pack"). We can simplify this greatly with a strbuf. Technically the end result is not identical, as the original took care not to rewrite the object directory on each call for performance reasons. We could do that here, too (by saving the baselen and resetting to it), but it's not worth the complexity; this function is not called a lot (generally once per packfile that we open).

2015-09-25use strip_suffix and xstrfmt to replace suffixLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+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>

We have the path "foo.idx", and we create a buffer big enough to hold "foo.pack" and "foo.keep", and then strcpy straight into it. This isn't a bug (we have enough space), but it's very hard to tell from the strcpy that this is so. Let's instead use strip_suffix to take off the ".idx", record the size of our allocation, and use xsnprintf to make sure we don't violate our assumptions.

2015-09-25use xsnprintf for generating git object headersLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+7
We generally use 32-byte buffers to format git's "type size" header fields. These should not generally overflow unless you can produce some truly gigantic objects (and our types come from our internal array of constant strings). But it is a good idea to use xsnprintf to make sure this is the case. Note that we slightly modify the interface to write_sha1_file_prepare, which nows uses "hdrlen" as an "in" parameter as well as an "out" (on the way in it stores the allocated size of the header, and on the way out it returns the ultimate size of the header).

2015-09-04read_info_alternates: handle paths larger than PATH_MAXLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+3
This function assumes that the relative_base path passed into it is no larger than PATH_MAX, and writes into a fixed-size buffer. However, this path may not have actually come from the filesystem; for example, add_submodule_odb generates a path using a strbuf and passes it in. This is hard to trigger in practice, though, because the long submodule directory would have to exist on disk before we would try to open its info/alternates file.

In read_sha1_file_extended we die if read_object fails with a fatal error. We detect a fatal error if errno is non-zero and is not ENOENT. If the object could not be read because it does not exist, this is not considered a fatal error and we want to return NULL. Somewhere down the line, read_object calls git_open_noatime to open a pack index file, for example. We first try open with O_NOATIME. If O_NOATIME fails with EPERM, we retry without O_NOATIME. When the second open succeeds, errno is however still set to EPERM from the first attempt. When we finally determine that the object does not exist, read_object returns NULL and read_sha1_file_extended dies with a fatal error: fatal: failed to read object <sha1>: Operation not permitted Fix this by resetting errno to zero before we call open again.

2015-08-10add_to_alternates_file: don't add duplicate entriesLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+40
The add_to_alternates_file function blindly uses hold_lock_file_for_append to copy the existing contents, and then adds the new line to it. This has two minor problems: 1. We might add duplicate entries, which are ugly and inefficient. 2. We do not check that the file ends with a newline, in which case we would bogusly append to the final line. This is quite unlikely in practice, though, as we call this function only from git-clone, so presumably we are the only writers of the file (and we always add a newline). Instead of using hold_lock_file_for_append, let's copy the file line by line, which ensures all records are properly terminated. If we see an extra line, we can simply abort the update (there is no point in even copying the rest, as we know that it would be identical to the original).
