2020-04-19fsck: reject URL with empty host in .gitmodulesLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+32
Git's URL parser interprets https:///example.com/repo.git to have no host and a path of "example.com/repo.git". Curl, on the other hand, internally redirects it to https://example.com/repo.git. As a result, until "credential: parse URL without host as empty host, not unset", tricking a user into fetching from such a URL would cause Git to send credentials for another host to example.com. Teach fsck to block and detect .gitmodules files using such a URL to prevent sharing them with Git versions that are not yet protected. A relative URL in a .gitmodules file could also be used to trigger this. The relative URL resolver used for .gitmodules does not normalize sequences of slashes and can follow ".." components out of the path part and to the host part of a URL, meaning that such a relative URL can be used to traverse from a https://foo.example.com/innocent superproject to a https:///attacker.example.com/exploit submodule. Fortunately, redundant extra slashes in .gitmodules are rare, so we can catch this by detecting one after a leading sequence of "./" and "../" components.

2020-04-19credential: treat URL with empty scheme as invalidLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-0/+41
Until "credential: refuse to operate when missing host or protocol", Git's credential handling code interpreted URLs with empty scheme to mean "give me credentials matching this host for any protocol". Luckily libcurl does not recognize such URLs (it tries to look for a protocol named "" and fails). Just in case that changes, let's reject them within Git as well. This way, credential_from_url is guaranteed to always produce a "struct credential" with protocol and host set. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>
2020-04-19credential: treat URL without scheme as invalidLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-5/+34
libcurl permits making requests without a URL scheme specified. In this case, it guesses the URL from the hostname, so I can run git ls-remote http::ftp.example.com/path/to/repo and it would make an FTP request. Any user intentionally using such a URL is likely to have made a typo. Unfortunately, credential_from_url is not able to determine the host and protocol in order to determine appropriate credentials to send, and until "credential: refuse to operate when missing host or protocol", this resulted in another host's credentials being leaked to the named host. Teach credential_from_url_gently to consider such a URL to be invalid so that fsck can detect and block gitmodules files with such URLs, allowing server operators to avoid serving them to downstream users running older versions of Git. This also means that when such URLs are passed on the command line, Git will print a clearer error so affected users can switch to the simpler URL that explicitly specifies the host and protocol they intend. One subtlety: .gitmodules files can contain relative URLs, representing a URL relative to the URL they were cloned from. The relative URL resolver used for .gitmodules can follow ".." components out of the path part and past the host part of a URL, meaning that such a relative URL can be used to traverse from a https://foo.example.com/innocent superproject to a https::attacker.example.com/exploit submodule. Fortunately a leading ':' in the first path component after a series of leading './' and '../' components is unlikely to show up in other contexts, so we can catch this by detecting that pattern.

2020-04-19credential: die() when parsing invalid urlsLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+1
When we try to initialize credential loading by URL and find that the URL is invalid, we set all fields to NULL in order to avoid acting on malicious input. Later when we request credentials, we diagonse the erroneous input: fatal: refusing to work with credential missing host field This is problematic in two ways: - The message doesn't tell the user *why* we are missing the host field, so they can't tell from this message alone how to recover. There can be intervening messages after the original warning of bad input, so the user may not have the context to put two and two together. - The error only occurs when we actually need to get a credential. If the URL permits anonymous access, the only encouragement the user gets to correct their bogus URL is a quiet warning. This is inconsistent with the check we perform in fsck, where any use of such a URL as a submodule is an error. When we see such a bogus URL, let's not try to be nice and continue without helpers. Instead, die() immediately. This is simpler and obviously safe. And there's very little chance of disrupting a normal workflow. It's _possible_ that somebody has a legitimate URL with a raw newline in it. It already wouldn't work with credential helpers, so this patch steps that up from an inconvenience to "we will refuse to work with it at all". If such a case does exist, we should figure out a way to work with it (especially if the newline is only in the path component, which we normally don't even pass to helpers). But until we see a real report, we're better off being defensive.

2020-04-19fsck: convert gitmodules url to URL passed to curlLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+29
In 07259e74ec1 (fsck: detect gitmodules URLs with embedded newlines, 2020-03-11), git fsck learned to check whether URLs in .gitmodules could be understood by the credential machinery when they are handled by git-remote-curl. However, the check is overbroad: it checks all URLs instead of only URLs that would be passed to git-remote-curl. In principle a git:// or file:/// URL does not need to follow the same conventions as an http:// URL; in particular, git:// and file:// protocols are not succeptible to issues in the credential API because they do not support attaching credentials. In the HTTP case, the URL in .gitmodules does not always match the URL that would be passed to git-remote-curl and the credential machinery: Git's URL syntax allows specifying a remote helper followed by a "::" delimiter and a URL to be passed to it, so that git ls-remote http::https://example.com/repo.git invokes git-remote-http with https://example.com/repo.git as its URL argument. With today's checks, that distinction does not make a difference, but for a check we are about to introduce (for empty URL schemes) it will matter. .gitmodules files also support relative URLs. To ensure coverage for the https based embedded-newline attack, urldecode and check them directly for embedded newlines.

2020-04-19credential: refuse to operate when missing host or protocolLibravatar Jeff King1-8/+26
The credential helper protocol was designed to be very flexible: the fields it takes as input are treated as a pattern, and any missing fields are taken as wildcards. This allows unusual things like: echo protocol=https | git credential reject to delete all stored https credentials (assuming the helpers themselves treat the input that way). But when helpers are invoked automatically by Git, this flexibility works against us. If for whatever reason we don't have a "host" field, then we'd match _any_ host. When you're filling a credential to send to a remote server, this is almost certainly not what you want. Prevent this at the layer that writes to the credential helper. Add a check to the credential API that the host and protocol are always passed in, and add an assertion to the credential_write function that speaks credential helper protocol to be doubly sure. There are a few ways this can be triggered in practice: - the "git credential" command passes along arbitrary credential parameters it reads from stdin. - until the previous patch, when the host field of a URL is empty, we would leave it unset (rather than setting it to the empty string) - a URL like "example.com/foo.git" is treated by curl as if "http://" was present, but our parser sees it as a non-URL and leaves all fields unset - the recent fix for URLs with embedded newlines blanks the URL but otherwise continues. Rather than having the desired effect of looking up no credential at all, many helpers will return _any_ credential Our earlier test for an embedded newline didn't catch this because it only checked that the credential was cleared, but didn't configure an actual helper. Configuring the "verbatim" helper in the test would show that it is invoked (it's obviously a silly helper which doesn't look at its input, but the point is that it shouldn't be run at all). Since we're switching this case to die(), we don't need to bother with a helper. We can see the new behavior just by checking that the operation fails. We'll add new tests covering partial input as well (these can be triggered through various means with url-parsing, but it's simpler to just check them directly, as we know we are covered even if the url parser changes behavior in the future).

2020-04-19credential: parse URL without host as empty host, not unsetLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+17
We may feed a URL like "cert:///path/to/cert.pem" into the credential machinery to get the key for a client-side certificate. That credential has no hostname field, which is about to be disallowed (to avoid confusion with protocols where a helper _would_ expect a hostname). This means as of the next patch, credential helpers won't work for unlocking certs. Let's fix that by doing two things: - when we parse a url with an empty host, set the host field to the empty string (asking only to match stored entries with an empty host) rather than NULL (asking to match _any_ host). - when we build a cert:// credential by hand, similarly assign an empty string It's the latter that is more likely to impact real users in practice, since it's what's used for http connections. But we don't have good infrastructure to test it. The url-parsing version will help anybody using git-credential in a script, and is easy to test.

2020-04-19t0300: use more realistic inputsLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+85
Many of the tests in t0300 give partial inputs to git-credential, omitting a protocol or hostname. We're checking only high-level things like whether and how helpers are invoked at all, and we don't care about specific hosts. However, in preparation for tightening up the rules about when we're willing to run a helper, let's start using input that's a bit more realistic: pretend as if http://example.com is being examined. This shouldn't change the point of any of the tests, but do note we have to adjust the expected output to accommodate this (filling a credential will repeat back the protocol/host fields to stdout, and the helper debug messages and askpass prompt will change on stderr).

2020-04-19t0300: make "quit" helper more realisticLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+13
We test a toy credential helper that writes "quit=1" and confirms that we stop running other helpers. However, that helper is unrealistic in that it does not bother to read its stdin at all. For now we don't send any input to it, because we feed git-credential a blank credential. But that will change in the next patch, which will cause this test to racily fail, as git-credential will get SIGPIPE writing to the helper rather than exiting because it was asked to. Let's make this one-off helper more like our other sample helpers, and have it source the "dump" script. That will read stdin, fixing the SIGPIPE problem. But it will also write what it sees to stderr. We can make the test more robust by checking that output, which confirms that we do run the quit helper, don't run any other helpers, and exit for the reason we expected.

2020-03-12fsck: detect gitmodules URLs with embedded newlinesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+17
The credential protocol can't handle values with newlines. We already detect and block any such URLs from being used with credential helpers, but let's also add an fsck check to detect and block gitmodules files with such URLs. That will let us notice the problem earlier when transfer.fsckObjects is turned on. And in particular it will prevent bad objects from spreading, which may protect downstream users running older versions of Git. We'll file this under the existing gitmodulesUrl flag, which covers URLs with option injection. There's really no need to distinguish the exact flaw in the URL in this context. Likewise, I've expanded the description of t7416 to cover all types of bogus URLs.
2020-03-12credential: detect unrepresentable values when parsing urlsLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+10
The credential protocol can't represent newlines in values, but URLs can embed percent-encoded newlines in various components. A previous commit taught the low-level writing routines to die() when encountering this, but we can be a little friendlier to the user by detecting them earlier and handling them gracefully. This patch teaches credential_from_url() to notice such components, issue a warning, and blank the credential (which will generally result in prompting the user for a username and password). We blank the whole credential in this case. Another option would be to blank only the invalid component. However, we're probably better off not feeding a partially-parsed URL result to a credential helper. We don't know how a given helper would handle it, so we're better off to err on the side of matching nothing rather than something unexpected. The die() call in credential_write() is _probably_ impossible to reach after this patch. Values should end up in credential structs only by URL parsing (which is covered here), or by reading credential protocol input (which by definition cannot read a newline into a value). But we should definitely keep the low-level check, as it's our final and most accurate line of defense against protocol injection attacks. Arguably it could become a BUG(), but it probably doesn't matter much either way. Note that the public interface of credential_from_url() grows a little more than we need here. We'll use the extra flexibility in a future patch to help fsck catch these cases.
2020-03-12t/lib-credential: use test_i18ncmp to check stderrLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The credential tests have a "check" function which feeds some input to git-credential and checks the stdout and stderr. We look for exact matches in the output. For stdout, this makes sense; the output is the credential protocol. But for stderr, we may be showing various diagnostic messages, or the prompts fed to the askpass program, which could be translated. Let's mark them as such.
2020-03-12credential: avoid writing values with newlinesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
The credential protocol that we use to speak to helpers can't represent values with newlines in them. This was an intentional design choice to keep the protocol simple, since none of the values we pass should generally have newlines. However, if we _do_ encounter a newline in a value, we blindly transmit it in credential_write(). Such values may break the protocol syntax, or worse, inject new valid lines into the protocol stream. The most likely way for a newline to end up in a credential struct is by decoding a URL with a percent-encoded newline. However, since the bug occurs at the moment we write the value to the protocol, we'll catch it there. That should leave no possibility of accidentally missing a code path that can trigger the problem. At this level of the code we have little choice but to die(). However, since we'd not ever expect to see this case outside of a malicious URL, that's an acceptable outcome. Reported-by: Felix Wilhelm <fwilhelm@google.com>

2020-02-27t/lib-httpd: avoid using macOS' sedLibravatar Johannes Schindelin8-59/+66
Among other differences relative to GNU sed, macOS' sed always ends its output with a trailing newline, even if the input did not have such a trailing newline. Surprisingly, this makes three httpd-based tests fail on macOS: t5616, t5702 and t5703. ("Surprisingly" because those tests have been around for some time, but apparently nobody runs them on macOS with a working Apache2 setup.) The reason is that we use `sed` in those tests to filter the response of the web server. Apart from the fact that we use GNU constructs (such as using a space after the `c` command instead of a backslash and a newline), we have another problem: macOS' sed LF-only newlines while webservers are supposed to use CR/LF ones. Even worse, t5616 uses `sed` to replace a binary part of the response with a new binary part (kind of hoping that the replaced binary part does not contain a 0x0a byte which would be interpreted as a newline). To that end, it calls on Perl to read the binary pack file and hex-encode it, then calls on `sed` to prefix every hex digit pair with a `\x` in order to construct the text that the `c` statement of the `sed` invocation is supposed to insert. So we call Perl and sed to construct a sed statement. The final nail in the coffin is that macOS' sed does not even interpret those `\x<hex>` constructs. Let's just replace all of that by Perl snippets. With Perl, at least, we do not have to deal with GNU vs macOS semantics, we do not have to worry about unwanted trailing newlines, and we do not have to spawn commands to construct arguments for other commands to be spawned (i.e. we can avoid a whole lot of shell scripting complexity). The upshot is that this fixes t5616, t5702 and t5703 on macOS with Apache2. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-02-22partial-clone: avoid fetching when looking for objectsLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+1
When using partial clone, find_non_local_tags() in builtin/fetch.c checks each remote tag to see if its object also exists locally. There is no expectation that the object exist locally, but this function nevertheless triggers a lazy fetch if the object does not exist. This can be extremely expensive when asking for a commit, as we are completely removed from the context of the non-existent object and thus supply no "haves" in the request. 6462d5eb9a (fetch: remove fetch_if_missing=0, 2019-11-05) removed a global variable that prevented these fetches in favor of a bitflag. However, some object existence checks were not updated to use this flag. Update find_non_local_tags() to use OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT in addition to OBJECT_INFO_QUICK. The _QUICK option only prevents repreparing the pack-file structures. We need to be extremely careful about supplying _SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT when we expect an object to not exist due to updated refs.

2020-02-22partial-clone: demonstrate bugs in partial fetchLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+31
While testing partial clone, I noticed some odd behavior. I was testing a way of running 'git init', followed by manually configuring the remote for partial clone, and then running 'git fetch'. Astonishingly, I saw the 'git fetch' process start asking the server for multiple rounds of pack-file downloads! When tweaking the situation a little more, I discovered that I could cause the remote to hang up with an error. Add two tests that demonstrate these two issues. In the first test, we find that when fetching with blob filters from a repository that previously did not have any tags, the 'git fetch --tags origin' command fails because the server sends "multiple filter-specs cannot be combined". This only happens when using protocol v2. In the second test, we see that a 'git fetch origin' request with several ref updates results in multiple pack-file downloads. This must be due to Git trying to fault-in the objects pointed by the refs. What makes this matter particularly nasty is that this goes through the do_oid_object_info_extended() method, so there are no "haves" in the negotiation. This leads the remote to send every reachable commit and tree from each new ref, providing a quadratic amount of data transfer! This test is fixed if we revert 6462d5eb9a (fetch: remove fetch_if_missing=0, 2019-11-05), but that revert causes other test failures. The real fix will need more care. The tests are ordered in this way because if I swap the test order the tag test will succeed instead of fail. I believe this is because somehow we need the srv.bare repo to not have any tags when we clone, but then have tags in our next fetch.

2020-02-19merge-recursive: fix the refresh logic in update_file_flagsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-1/+1
If we need to delete a higher stage entry in the index to place the file at stage 0, then we'll lose that file's stat information. In such situations we may still be able to detect that the file on disk is the version we want (as noted by our comment in the code: /* do not overwrite file if already present */ ), but we do still need to update the mtime since we are creating a new cache_entry for that file. Update the logic used to determine whether we refresh a file's mtime. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-02-19t3433: new rebase testcase documenting a stat-dirty-like failureLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+48
A user discovered a case where they had a stack of 20 simple commits to rebase, and the rebase would succeed in picking the first commit and then error out with a pair of "Could not execute the todo command" and "Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge" messages. Their steps actually made use of the -i flag, but I switched it over to -m to make it simpler to trigger the bug. With that flag, it bisects back to commit 68aa495b590d (rebase: implement --merge via the interactive machinery, 2018-12-11), but that's misleading. If you change the -m flag to --keep-empty, then the problem persists and will bisect back to 356ee4659bb5 (sequencer: try to commit without forking 'git commit', 2017-11-24) After playing with the testcase for a bit, I discovered that added --exec "sleep 1" to the command line makes the rebase succeed, making me suspect there is some kind of discard and reloading of caches that lead us to believe that something is stat dirty, but I didn't succeed in digging any further than that.
