The fsck code operates on an object buffer represented as a pointer/len
combination. However, the parsing of commits and tags is a little bit
loose; we mostly scan left-to-right through the buffer, without checking
whether we've gone past the length we were given.
This has traditionally been OK because the buffers we feed to fsck
always have an extra NUL after the end of the object content, which ends
any left-to-right scan. That has always been true for objects we read
from the odb, and we made it true for incoming index-pack/unpack-objects
checks in a1e920a0a7 (index-pack: terminate object buffers with NUL,
2014-12-08).
However, we recently added an exception: hash-object asks index_fd() to
do fsck checks. That _may_ have an extra NUL (if we read from a pipe
into a strbuf), but it might not (if we read the contents from the
file). Nor can we just teach it to always add a NUL. We may mmap the
on-disk file, which will not have any extra bytes (if it's a multiple of
the page size). Not to mention that this is a rather subtle assumption
for the fsck code to make.
Instead, let's make sure that the fsck parsers don't ever look past the
size of the buffer they've been given. This _almost_ works already,
thanks to earlier work in 4d0d89755e (Make sure fsck_commit_buffer()
does not run out of the buffer, 2014-09-11). The theory there is that we
check up front whether we have the end of header double-newline
separator. And then any left-to-right scanning we do is OK as long as it
stops when it hits that boundary.
However, we later softened that in 84d18c0bcf (fsck: it is OK for a tag
and a commit to lack the body, 2015-06-28), which allows the
double-newline header to be missing, but does require that the header
ends in a newline. That was OK back then, because of the NUL-termination
guarantees (including the one from a1e920a0a7 mentioned above).
Because 84d18c0bcf guarantees that any header line does end in a
newline, we are still OK with most of the left-to-right scanning. We
only need to take care after completing a line, to check that there is
another line (and we didn't run out of buffer).
Most of these checks are just need to check "buffer < buffer_end" (where
buffer is advanced as we parse) before scanning for the next header
line. But here are a few notes:
- we don't technically need to check for remaining buffer before
parsing the very first line ("tree" for a commit, or "object" for a
tag), because verify_headers() rejects a totally empty buffer. But
we'll do so in the name of consistency and defensiveness.
- there are some calls to strchr('\n'). These are actually OK by the
"the final header line must end in a newline" guarantee from
verify_headers(). They will always find that rather than run off the
end of the buffer. Curiously, they do check for a NULL return and
complain, but I believe that condition can never be reached.
However, I converted them to use memchr() with a proper size and
retained the NULL checks. Using memchr() is not much longer and
makes it more obvious what is going on. Likewise, retaining the NULL
checks serves as a defensive measure in case my analysis is wrong.
- commit 9a1a3a4d4c (mktag: allow omitting the header/body \n
separator, 2021-01-05), does check for the end-of-buffer condition,
but does so with "!*buffer", relying explicitly on the NUL
termination. We can accomplish the same thing with a pointer
comparison. I also folded it into the follow-on conditional that
checks the contents of the buffer, for consistency with the other
checks.
- fsck_ident() uses parse_timestamp(), which is based on strtoumax().
That function will happily skip past leading whitespace, including
newlines, which makes it a risk. We can fix this by scanning to the
first digit ourselves, and then using parse_timestamp() to do the
actual numeric conversion.
Note that as a side effect this fixes the fact that we missed
zero-padded timestamps like "<email> 0123" (whereas we would
complain about "<email> 0123"). I doubt anybody cares, but I
mention it here for completeness.
- fsck_tree() does not need any modifications. It relies on
decode_tree_entry() to do the actual parsing, and that function
checks both that there are enough bytes in the buffer to represent
an entry, and that there is a NUL at the appropriate spot (one
hash-length from the end; this may not be the NUL for the entry we
are parsing, but we know that in the worst case, everything from our
current position to that NUL is a filename, so we won't run out of
bytes).
In addition to fixing the code itself, we'd like to make sure our rather
subtle assumptions are not violated in the future. So this patch does
two more things:
- add comments around verify_headers() documenting the link between
what it checks and the memory safety of the callers. I don't expect
this code to be modified frequently, but this may help somebody from
accidentally breaking things.
- add a thorough set of tests covering truncations at various key
spots (e.g., for a "tree $oid" line, in the middle of the word
"tree", right after it, after the space, in the middle of the $oid,
and right at the end of the line. Most of these are fine already (it
is only truncating right at the end of the line that is currently
broken). And some of them are not even possible with the current
code (we parse "tree " as a unit, so truncating before the space is
equivalent). But I aimed here to consider the code a black box and
look for any truncations that would be a problem for a left-to-right
parser.

The fsck code has been slowly moving away from requiring an object
struct in commits like 103fb6d43b (fsck: accept an oid instead of a
"struct tag" for fsck_tag(), 2019-10-18), c5b4269b57 (fsck: accept an
oid instead of a "struct commit" for fsck_commit(), 2019-10-18), etc.
However, the only external interface that fsck.c provides is
fsck_object(), which requires an object struct, then promptly discards
everything except its oid and type. Let's factor out the post-discard
part of that function as fsck_buffer(), leaving fsck_object() as a thin
wrapper around it. That will provide more flexibility for callers which
may not have a struct.

Recently, a vulnerability was reported that can lead to an out-of-bounds
write when reading an unreasonably large gitattributes file. The root
cause of this error are multiple integer overflows in different parts of
the code when there are either too many lines, when paths are too long,
when attribute names are too long, or when there are too many attributes
declared for a pattern.
As all of these are related to size, it seems reasonable to restrict the
size of the gitattributes file via git-fsck(1). This allows us to both
stop distributing known-vulnerable objects via common hosting platforms
that have fsck enabled, and users to protect themselves by enabling the
`fetch.fsckObjects` config.
There are basically two checks:
1. We verify that size of the gitattributes file is smaller than
100MB.
2. We verify that the maximum line length does not exceed 2048
bytes.
With the preceding commits, both of these conditions would cause us to
either ignore the complete gitattributes file or blob in the first case,
or the specific line in the second case. Now with these consistency
checks added, we also grow the ability to stop distributing such files
in the first place when `receive.fsckObjects` is enabled.

interpreted by Git. We only have a single such check right now though,
which is the one for gitmodules that has been added in the context of
CVE-2018-11235.

We use the normal tree_desc code to iterate over trees in fsck, meaning
we only see the canonicalized modes it returns. And hence we'd never see
anything unexpected, since it will coerce literally any garbage into one
of our normal and accepted modes.
We can use the new RAW_MODES flag to see the real modes, and then use
the existing code to actually analyze them. The existing code is written
as allow-known-good, so there's not much point in testing a variety of
breakages. The one tested here should be S_IFREG but with nonsense
permissions.
Do note that the error-reporting here isn't great. We don't mention the
specific bad mode, but just that the tree has one or more broken modes.
But when you go to look at it with "git ls-tree", we'll report the
canonicalized mode! This isn't ideal, but given that this should come up
rarely, and that any number of other tree corruptions might force you
into looking at the binary bytes via "cat-file", it's not the end of the
world. And it's something we can improve on top later if we choose.

When using init_tree_desc() and tree_entry() to iterate over a tree, we
always canonicalize the modes coming out of the tree. This is a good
thing to prevent bugs or oddities in normal code paths, but it's
counter-productive for tools like fsck that want to see the exact
contents.
We can address this by adding an option to avoid the extra
canonicalization. A few notes on the implementation:
- I've attached the new option to the tree_desc struct itself. The
actual code change is in decode_tree_entry(), which is in turn
called by the public update_tree_entry(), tree_entry(), and
init_tree_desc() functions, plus their "gently" counterparts.
By letting it ride along in the struct, we can avoid changing the
signature of those functions, which are called many times. Plus it's
conceptually simpler: you really want a particular iteration of a
tree to be "raw" or not, rather than individual calls.
- We still have to set the new option somewhere. The struct is
initialized by init_tree_desc(). I added the new flags field only to
the "gently" version. That avoids disturbing the much more numerous
non-gentle callers, and it makes sense that anybody being careful
about looking at raw modes would also be careful about bogus trees
(i.e., the caller will be something like fsck in the first place).

In the commits merged in via 204333b015 (Merge branch
'jk/open-dotgitx-with-nofollow', 2021-03-22), we stopped following
symbolic links for .gitattributes, .gitignore, and .mailmap files.
Let's teach fsck to warn that these symlinks are not going to do
anything. Note that this is just a warning, and won't block the objects
via transfer.fsckObjects, since there are reported to be cases of this
in the wild (and even once fixed, they will continue to exist in the
commit history of those projects, but are not particularly dangerous).
Note that we won't add these to the existing gitmodules block in the
fsck code. The logic for gitmodules is a bit more complicated, as we
also check the content of non-symlink instances we find. But for these
new files, there is no content check; we're just looking at the name and
mode of the tree entry (and we can avoid even the complicated name
checks in the common case that the mode doesn't indicate a symlink).
We can reuse the test helper function we defined for .gitmodules, though
(it needs some slight adjustments for the fsck error code, and because
we don't block these symlinks via verify_path()).
Note that I didn't explicitly test the transfer.fsckObjects case here
(nor does the existing .gitmodules test that it blocks a push). The

Commit b2f2039c2b (fsck: accept an oid instead of a "struct tree" for
fsck_tree(), 2019-10-18) introduced a new "oid" parameter to
fsck_tree(), and we pass it to the report() function when we find
problems. However, that is shadowed within the tree-walking loop by the
existing "oid" variable which we use to store the oid of each tree
entry. As a result, we may report the wrong oid for some problems we
detect within the loop (the entry oid, instead of the tree oid).
Our tests didn't catch this because they checked only that we found the
expected fsck problem, not that it was attached to the correct object.
Let's rename both variables in the function to avoid confusion. This
makes the diff a little noisy (e.g., all of the report() calls outside
the loop were already correct but need to be touched), but makes sure we
catch all cases and will avoid similar confusion in the future.

redundant work.
But that's OK in this case, reporting this fsck issue to the user

The approach to "fsck" the incoming objects in "index-pack" is
attractive for performance reasons (we have them already in core,
inflated and ready to be inspected), but fundamentally cannot be
applied fully when we receive more than one pack stream, as a tree
object in one pack may refer to a blob object in another pack as
".gitmodules", when we want to inspect blobs that are used as
".gitmodules" file, for example. Teach "index-pack" to emit
objects that must be inspected later and check them in the calling
"fetch-pack" process.

Teach index-pack to print dangling .gitmodules links after its "keep" or
"pack" line instead of declaring an error, and teach fetch-pack to check
such lines printed.
This allows the tree side of the .gitmodules link to be in one packfile
and the blob side to be in another without failing the fsck check,
because it is now fetch-pack which checks such objects after all
packfiles have been downloaded and indexed (and not index-pack on an
individual packfile, as it is before this commit).

2016-07-17), the `fsck` machinery learned to optionally name the
objects, so that it is easier to see what part of the repository is in a
bad shape, say, when objects are missing.
To save on complexity, this machinery uses a parser to determine the
name of a parent given a commit's name: any `~<n>` suffix is parsed and
the parent's name is formed from the prefix together with `~<n+1>`.
However, this parser has a bug: if it finds a suffix `<n>` that is _not_
`~<n>`, it will mistake the empty string for the prefix and `<n>` for
the generation number. In other words, it will generate a name of the
form `~<bogus-number>`.
Let's fix this.

Newline characters in the host and path part of git:// URL are

Newline characters in the host and path part of git:// URL are
now forbidden.
* jk/forbid-lf-in-git-url:
fsck: reject .gitmodules git:// urls with newlines
git_connect_git(): forbid newlines in host and path
The previous commit taught the clone/fetch client side to reject a
git:// URL with a newline in it. Let's also catch these when fscking a
.gitmodules file, which will give an earlier warning.
Note that it would be simpler to just complain about newline in _any_
URL, but an earlier tightening for http/ftp made sure we kept allowing
newlines for unknown protocols (and this is covered in the tests). So
we'll stick to that precedent.

Change mktag's acceptance rules to accept an empty body without an
empty line after the header again. This fixes an ancient unintended
dregression in "mktag".
When "mktag" was introduced in ec4465adb3 (Add "tag" objects that can
be used to sign other objects., 2005-04-25) the input checks were much
looser. When it was documented it 6cfec03680 (mktag: minimally update
the description., 2007-06-10) it was clearly intended for this \n to
be optional:
The message, when [it] exists, is separated by a blank line from
the header.
But then in e0aaf781f6 (mktag.c: improve verification of tagger field
and tests, 2008-03-27) this was made an error, seemingly by
accident. It was just a result of the general header checks, and all
the tests after that patch have a trailing empty line (but did not
before).
Let's allow this again, and tweak the test semantics changed in
e0aaf781f6 to remove the redundant empty line. New tests added in
previous commits of mine already added an explicit test for allowing
the empty line between header and body.

Move the fsck_config() function from builtin/fsck.c to fsck.[ch]. This
allows for re-using it in other tools that expose fsck logic and want
to support its configuration variables.
A logical continuation of this change would be to use a common
function for all of {fetch,receive}.fsck.* and fsck.*. See
5d477a334a (fsck (receive-pack): allow demoting errors to warnings,
2015-06-22) and my own 1362df0d41 (fetch: implement fetch.fsck.*,
2018-07-27) for the relevant code.
However, those routines want to not parse the fsck.skipList into OIDs,
but rather pass them along with the --strict option to another
process. It would be possible to refactor that whole thing so we
support e.g. a "fetch." prefix, then just keep track of the skiplist
as a filename instead of parsing it, and learn to spew that all out
from our internal structures into something we can append to the
--strict option.
But instead I'm planning to re-use this in "mktag", which'll just
re-use these "fsck.*" variables as-is.

Change the validation logic in "mktag" to use fsck's fsck_tag()
instead of its own custom parser. Curiously the logic for both dates
back to the same commit[1]. Let's unify them so we're not maintaining
two sets functions to verify that a tag is OK.
The behavior of fsck_tag() and the old "mktag" code being removed here
is different in few aspects.
I think it makes sense to remove some of those checks, namely:
A. fsck only cares that the timezone matches [-+][0-9]{4}. The mktag
code disallowed values larger than 1400.
Yes there's currently no timezone with a greater offset[2], but
since we allow any number of non-offical timezones (e.g. +1234)
passing this through seems fine. Git also won't break in the
future if e.g. French Polynesia decides it needs to outdo the Line
Islands when it comes to timezone extravagance.
B. fsck allows missing author names such as "tagger <email>", mktag
wouldn't, but would allow e.g. "tagger [2 spaces] <email>" (but
not "tagger [1 space] <email>"). Now we allow all of these.
C. Like B, but "mktag" disallowed spaces in the <email> part, fsck
allows it.
In some ways fsck_tag() is stricter than "mktag" was, namely:
D. fsck disallows zero-padded dates, but mktag didn't care. So
e.g. the timestamp "0000000000 +0000" produces an error now. A
test in "t1006-cat-file.sh" relied on this, it's been changed to
use "hash-object" (without fsck) instead.
There was one check I deemed worth keeping by porting it over to
fsck_tag():
E. "mktag" did not allow any custom headers, and by extension (as an
empty commit is allowed) also forbade an extra stray trailing
newline after the headers it knew about.
Add a new check in the "ignore" category to fsck and use it. This
somewhat abuses the facility added in efaba7cc77 (fsck:
optionally ignore specific fsck issues completely, 2015-06-22).
This is somewhat of hack, but probably the least invasive change
we can make here. The fsck command will shuffle these categories
around, e.g. under --strict the "info" becomes a "warn" and "warn"
becomes "error". Existing users of fsck's (and others,
e.g. index-pack) --strict option rely on this.
So we need to put something into a category that'll be ignored by
all existing users of the API. Pretending that
fsck.extraHeaderEntry=error ("ignore" by default) was set serves
to do this for us.

The check in "git fsck" to ensure that the tree objects are sorted
still had corner cases it missed unsorted entries.

fsck: fix a typo in a comment
If the conflict candidate file name from the top of the stack is not a
prefix of the current candiate directory then we can discard it as no
matching directory can come up later. But we are not done checking the
candidate directory -- the stack might still hold a matching file name,
so stay in the loop and check the next candidate file name.

"git fsck" ensures that the paths recorded in tree objects are
sorted and without duplicates, but it failed to notice a case where
a blob is followed by entries that sort before a tree with the same
name. This has been corrected.
* rs/fsck-duplicate-names-in-trees:
fsck: report non-consecutive duplicate names in trees
Tree entries are sorted in path order, meaning that directory names get
a slash ('/') appended implicitly. Git fsck checks if trees contains
consecutive duplicates, but due to that ordering there can be
non-consecutive duplicates as well if one of them is a directory and the
other one isn't. Such a tree cannot be fully checked out.
Find these duplicates by recording candidate file names on a stack and
check candidate directory names against that stack to find matches.

length of various pieces of text it parsed, which has been updated
to use the correct type (i.e. size_t) throughout.
