2024-11-26Merge branch 'disallow-control-characters-in-credential-urls-by-default'Johannes Schindelin
This addresses two vulnerabilities: - CVE-2024-50349: Printing unsanitized URLs when asking for credentials made the user susceptible to crafted URLs (e.g. in recursive clones) that mislead the user into typing in passwords for trusted sites that would then be sent to untrusted sites instead. - CVE-2024-52006 Git may pass on Carriage Returns via the credential protocol to credential helpers which use line-reading functions that interpret said Carriage Returns as line endings, even though Git did not intend that.

2024-11-26credential: disallow Carriage Returns in the protocol by defaultJohannes Schindelin
While Git has documented that the credential protocol is line-based, with newlines as terminators, the exact shape of a newline has not been documented. From Git's perspective, which is firmly rooted in the Linux ecosystem, it is clear that "a newline" means a Line Feed character. However, even Git's credential protocol respects Windows line endings (a Carriage Return character followed by a Line Feed character, "CR/LF") by virtue of using `strbuf_getline()`. There is a third category of line endings that has been used originally by MacOS, and that is respected by the default line readers of .NET and node.js: bare Carriage Returns. Git cannot handle those, and what is worse: Git's remedy against CVE-2020-5260 does not catch when credential helpers are used that interpret bare Carriage Returns as newlines. Git Credential Manager addressed this as CVE-2024-50338, but other credential helpers may still be vulnerable. So let's not only disallow Line Feed characters as part of the values in the credential protocol, but also disallow Carriage Return characters. In the unlikely event that a credential helper relies on Carriage Returns in the protocol, introduce an escape hatch via the `credential.protectProtocol` config setting. This addresses CVE-2024-52006. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2024-11-26credential: sanitize the user promptJohannes Schindelin
When asking the user interactively for credentials, we want to avoid misleading them e.g. via control sequences that pretend that the URL targets a trusted host when it does not. While Git learned, over the course of the preceding commits, to disallow URLs containing URL-encoded control characters by default, credential helpers are still allowed to specify values very freely (apart from Line Feed and NUL characters, anything is allowed), and this would allow, say, a username containing control characters to be specified that would then be displayed in the interactive terminal prompt asking the user for the password, potentially sending those control characters directly to the terminal. This is undesirable because control characters can be used to mislead users to divulge secret information to untrusted sites. To prevent such an attack vector, let's add a `git_prompt()` that forces the displayed text to be sanitized, i.e. displaying question marks instead of control characters. Note: While this commit's diff changes a lot of `user@host` strings to `user%40host`, which may look suspicious on the surface, there is a good reason for that: this string specifies a user name, not a <username>@<hostname> combination! In the context of t5541, the actual combination looks like this: `user%40@127.0.0.1:5541`. Therefore, these string replacements document a net improvement introduced by this commit, as `user@host@127.0.0.1` could have left readers wondering where the user name ends and where the host name begins.

2024-11-26credential_format(): also encode <host>[:<port>]Johannes Schindelin
An upcoming change wants to sanitize the credential password prompt where a URL is displayed that may potentially come from a `.gitmodules` file. To this end, the `credential_format()` function is employed. To sanitize the host name (and optional port) part of the URL, we need a new mode of the `strbuf_add_percentencode()` function because the current mode is both too strict and too lenient: too strict because it encodes `:`, `[` and `]` (which should be left unencoded in `<host>:<port>` and in IPv6 addresses), and too lenient because it does not encode invalid host name characters `/`, `_` and `~`. So let's introduce and use a new mode specifically to encode the host name and optional port part of a URI, leaving alpha-numerical characters, periods, colons and brackets alone and encoding all others. This only leads to a change of behavior for URLs that contain invalid host names. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

2024-10-30t7300: work around platform-specific behaviour with long paths on MinGWPatrick Steinhardt
Windows by default has a restriction in place to only allow paths up to 260 characters. This restriction can nowadays be lifted by setting a registry key, but is still active by default. In t7300 we have one test that exercises the behaviour of git-clean(1) with such long paths. Interestingly enough, this test fails on my system that uses Windows 10 with mingw-w64 installed via MSYS2: instead of observing ENAMETOOLONG, we observe ENOENT. This behaviour is consistent across multiple different environments I have tried. I cannot say why exactly we observe a different error here, but I would not be surprised if this was either dependent on the Windows version, the version of MinGW, the current working directory of Git or any kind of combination of these. Work around the issue by handling both errors.

2024-05-21clone: drop the protections where hooks aren't runJohannes Schindelin
As part of the security bug-fix releases v2.39.4, ..., v2.45.1, I introduced logic to safeguard `git clone` from running hooks that were installed _during_ the clone operation. The rationale was that Git's CVE-2024-32002, CVE-2021-21300, CVE-2019-1354, CVE-2019-1353, CVE-2019-1352, and CVE-2019-1349 should have been low-severity vulnerabilities but were elevated to critical/high severity by the attack vector that allows a weakness where files inside `.git/` can be inadvertently written during a `git clone` to escalate to a Remote Code Execution attack by virtue of installing a malicious `post-checkout` hook that Git will then run at the end of the operation without giving the user a chance to see what code is executed. Unfortunately, Git LFS uses a similar strategy to install its own `post-checkout` hook during a `git clone`; In fact, Git LFS is installing four separate hooks while running the `smudge` filter. While this pattern is probably in want of being improved by introducing better support in Git for Git LFS and other tools wishing to register hooks to be run at various stages of Git's commands, let's undo the clone protections to unbreak Git LFS-enabled clones. This reverts commit 8db1e8743c0 (clone: prevent hooks from running during a clone, 2024-03-28).

2024-05-21tests: verify that `clone -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null` works againJohannes Schindelin
As part of the protections added in Git v2.45.1 and friends, repository-local `core.hooksPath` settings are no longer allowed, as a defense-in-depth mechanism to prevent future Git vulnerabilities to raise to critical level if those vulnerabilities inadvertently allow the repository-local config to be written. What the added protection did not anticipate is that such a repository-local `core.hooksPath` can not only be used to point to maliciously-placed scripts in the current worktree, but also to _prevent_ hooks from being called altogether. We just reverted the `core.hooksPath` protections, based on the Git maintainer's recommendation in https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqq4jaxvm8z.fsf@gitster.g/ to address this concern as well as related ones. Let's make sure that we won't regress while trying to protect the clone operation further.

2024-05-21Revert "core.hooksPath: add some protection while cloning"Johannes Schindelin
This defense-in-depth was intended to protect the clone operation against future escalations where bugs in `git clone` would allow attackers to write arbitrary files in the `.git/` directory would allow for Remote Code Execution attacks via maliciously-placed hooks. However, it turns out that the `core.hooksPath` protection has unintentional side effects so severe that they do not justify the benefit of the protections. For example, it has been reported in https://lore.kernel.org/git/FAFA34CB-9732-4A0A-87FB-BDB272E6AEE8@alchemists.io/ that the following invocation, which is intended to make `git clone` safer, is itself broken by that protective measure: git clone --config core.hooksPath=/dev/null <url> Since it turns out that the benefit does not justify the cost, let's revert 20f3588efc6 (core.hooksPath: add some protection while cloning, 2024-03-30).

As a consequence, Git v2.45.1 and friends will always use the hard-coded path `/usr/share/git-core/templates`.

2024-05-21ci: stop installing "gcc-13" for osx-gccJeff King
Our osx-gcc job explicitly asks to install gcc-13. But since the GitHub runner image already comes with gcc-13 installed, this is mostly doing nothing (or in some cases it may install an incremental update over the runner image). But worse, it recently started causing errors like: ==> Fetching gcc@13 ==> Downloading https://ghcr.io/v2/homebrew/core/gcc/13/blobs/sha256:fb2403d97e2ce67eb441b54557cfb61980830f3ba26d4c5a1fe5ecd0c9730d1a ==> Pouring gcc@13--13.2.0.ventura.bottle.tar.gz Error: The `brew link` step did not complete successfully The formula built, but is not symlinked into /usr/local Could not symlink bin/c++-13 Target /usr/local/bin/c++-13 is a symlink belonging to gcc. You can unlink it: brew unlink gcc which cause the whole CI job to bail. I didn't track down the root cause, but I suspect it may be related to homebrew recently switching the "gcc" default to gcc-14. And it may even be fixed when a new runner image is released.

2024-05-21ci: avoid bare "gcc" for osx-gcc jobJeff King
On macOS, a bare "gcc" (without a version) will invoke a wrapper for clang, not actual gcc. Even when gcc is installed via homebrew, that only provides version-specific links in /usr/local/bin (like "gcc-13"), and never a version-agnostic "gcc" wrapper. As far as I can tell, this has been the case for a long time, and this osx-gcc job has largely been doing nothing. We can point it at "gcc-13", which will pick up the homebrew-installed version. The fix here is specific to the github workflow file, as the gitlab one does not have a matching job. It's a little unfortunate that we cannot just ask for the latest version of gcc which homebrew provides, but as far as I can tell there is no easy alias (you'd have to find the highest number gcc-* in /usr/local/bin yourself).

2024-05-21send-email: avoid creating more than one Term::ReadLine objectJeff King
Every time git-send-email calls its ask() function to prompt the user, we call term(), which instantiates a new Term::ReadLine object. But in v1.46 of Term::ReadLine::Gnu (which provides the Term::ReadLine interface on some platforms), its constructor refuses to create a second instance[1]. So on systems with that version of the module, most git-send-email instances will fail (as we usually prompt for both "to" and "in-reply-to" unless the user provided them on the command line). We can fix this by keeping a single instance variable and returning it for each call to term(). In perl 5.10 and up, we could do that with a "state" variable. But since we only require 5.008, we'll do it the old-fashioned way, with a lexical "my" in its own scope. Note that the tests in t9001 detect this problem as-is, since the failure mode is for the program to die. But let's also beef up the "Prompting works" test to check that it correctly handles multiple inputs (if we had chosen to keep our FakeTerm hack in the previous commit, then the failure mode would be incorrectly ignoring prompts after the first).

Back in 280242d1cc (send-email: do not barf when Term::ReadLine does not like your terminal, 2006-07-02), we added a fallback for when Term::ReadLine's constructor failed: we'd have a FakeTerm object instead, which would then die if anybody actually tried to call readline() on it. Since we instantiated the $term variable at program startup, we needed this workaround to let the program run in modes when we did not prompt the user. But later, in f4dc9432fd (send-email: lazily load modules for a big speedup, 2021-05-28), we started loading Term::ReadLine lazily only when ask() is called. So at that point we know we're trying to prompt the user, and we can just die if ReadLine instantiation fails, rather than making this fake object to lazily delay showing the error. This should be OK even if there is no tty (e.g., we're in a cron job), because Term::ReadLine will return a stub object in that case whose "IN" and "OUT" functions return undef. And since 5906f54e47 (send-email: don't attempt to prompt if tty is closed, 2009-03-31), we check for that case and skip prompting. And we can be sure that FakeTerm was not kicking in for such a situation, because it has actually been broken since that commit! It does not define "IN" or "OUT" methods, so perl would barf with an error. If FakeTerm was in use, we were neither honoring what 5906f54e47 tried to do, nor producing the readable message that 280242d1cc intended. So we're better off just dropping FakeTerm entirely, and letting the error reported by constructing Term::ReadLine through.

If the source repository is owned by a different user, then those hardlinked files may be rewritten at any point in time by the untrusted user. - CVE-2024-32021: When cloning a local source repository that contains symlinks via the filesystem, Git may create hardlinks to arbitrary user-readable files on the same filesystem as the target repository in the objects/ directory.

2024-04-19fsck: warn about symlink pointing inside a gitdirJohannes Schindelin
In the wake of fixing a vulnerability where `git clone` mistakenly followed a symbolic link that it had just written while checking out files, writing into a gitdir, let's add some defense-in-depth by teaching `git fsck` to report symbolic links stored in its trees that point inside `.git/`. Even though the Git project never made any promises about the exact shape of the `.git/` directory's contents, there are likely repositories out there containing symbolic links that point inside the gitdir. For that reason, let's only report these as warnings, not as errors. Security-conscious users are encouraged to configure `fsck.symlinkPointsToGitDir = error`.

2024-04-19core.hooksPath: add some protection while cloningJohannes Schindelin
Quite frequently, when vulnerabilities were found in Git's (quite complex) clone machinery, a relatively common way to escalate the severity was to trick Git into running a hook which is actually a script that has just been laid on disk as part of that clone. This constitutes a Remote Code Execution vulnerability, the highest severity observed in Git's vulnerabilities so far. Some previously-fixed vulnerabilities allowed malicious repositories to be crafted such that Git would check out files not in the worktree, but in, say, a submodule's `<git>/hooks/` directory. A vulnerability that "merely" allows to modify the Git config would allow a related attack vector, to manipulate Git into looking in the worktree for hooks, e.g. redirecting the location where Git looks for hooks, via setting `core.hooksPath` (which would be classified as CWE-427: Uncontrolled Search Path Element and CWE-114: Process Control, for more details see https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/427.html and https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/114.html). To prevent that attack vector, let's error out and complain loudly if an active `core.hooksPath` configuration is seen in the repository-local Git config during a `git clone`. There is one caveat: This changes Git's behavior in a slightly backwards-incompatible manner. While it is probably a rare scenario (if it exists at all) to configure `core.hooksPath` via a config in the Git templates, it _is_ conceivable that some valid setup requires this to work. In the hopefully very unlikely case that a user runs into this, there is an escape hatch: set the `GIT_CLONE_PROTECTION_ACTIVE=false` environment variable. Obviously, this should be done only with utmost caution. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2024-04-19init.templateDir: consider this config setting protectedJohannes Schindelin
The ability to configuring the template directory is a delicate feature: It allows defining hooks that will be run e.g. during a `git clone` operation, such as the `post-checkout` hook. As such, it is of utmost importance that Git would not allow that config setting to be changed during a `git clone` by mistake, allowing an attacker a chance for a Remote Code Execution, allowing attackers to run arbitrary code on unsuspecting users' machines. As a defense-in-depth measure, to prevent minor vulnerabilities in the `git clone` code from ballooning into higher-serverity attack vectors, let's make this a protected setting just like `safe.directory` and friends, i.e. ignore any `init.templateDir` entries from any local config. Note: This does not change the behavior of any recursive clone (modulo bugs), as the local repository config is not even supposed to be written while cloning the superproject, except in one scenario: If a config template is configured that sets the template directory. This might be done because `git clone --recurse-submodules --template=<directory>` does not pass that template directory on to the submodules' initialization. Another scenario where this commit changes behavior is where repositories are _not_ cloned recursively, and then some (intentional, benign) automation configures the template directory to be used before initializing the submodules. So the caveat is that this could theoretically break existing processes. In both scenarios, there is a way out, though: configuring the template directory via the environment variable `GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR`. This change in behavior is a trade-off between security and backwards-compatibility that is struck in favor of security. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2024-04-19clone: prevent hooks from running during a cloneJohannes Schindelin
Critical security issues typically combine relatively common vulnerabilities such as case confusion in file paths with other weaknesses in order to raise the severity of the attack. One such weakness that has haunted the Git project in many a submodule-related CVE is that any hooks that are found are executed during a clone operation. Examples are the `post-checkout` and `fsmonitor` hooks. However, Git's design calls for hooks to be disabled by default, as only disabled example hooks are copied over from the templates in `<prefix>/share/git-core/templates/`. As a defense-in-depth measure, let's prevent those hooks from running. Obviously, administrators can choose to drop enabled hooks into the template directory, though, _and_ it is also possible to override `core.hooksPath`, in which case the new check needs to be disabled.
