apply: canonicalize modes read from patches
Git stores only canonical modes for blobs. So for a regular file, we
care about only "100644" or "100755" (depending only on the executable
bit), but never modes where the group or other permissions are more
exotic. So never "100664", "100700", etc. When a file in the working
tree has such a mode, we quietly turn it into one of the two canonical
modes, and that's what is stored both in the index and in tree objects.
However, we don't canonicalize modes we read from incoming patches in
git-apply. These may appear in a few lines:
- "old mode" / "new mode" lines for mode changes
- "new file mode" lines for newly created files
- "deleted file mode" for removing files
For "new mode" and for "new file mode", this is harmless. The patch is
asking the result to have a certain mode, but:
- when we add an index entry (for --index or --cached), it is
canonicalized as we create the entry, via create_ce_mode().
- for a working tree file, try_create_file() passes either 0777 or
0666 to open(), so what you get depends only on your umask, not any
other bits (aside from the executable bit) in the original mode.
However, for "old mode" and "deleted file mode", there is a minor
annoyance. We compare the patch's expected preimage mode with the
current state. But that current state is always going to be a canonical
mode itself:
- updating an index entry via --cached will have the canonical mode in
the index
- for updating a working tree file, check_preimage() runs the mode
through ce_mode_from_stat(), which does the usual canonicalization
So if the patch feeds a non-canonical mode, it's impossible for it to
match, and we will always complain with something like:
file has type 100644, expected 100664
Since this is just a warning, the operation proceeds, but it's
confusing and annoying.
These cases should be pretty rare in practice. Git would never produce a
patch with non-canonical modes itself (since it doesn't store them).
And while we do accept patches from other programs, all of those lines
were invented by Git. So you'd need a program trying to be Git
compatible, but not handling canonicalization the same way. Reportedly
"quilt" is such a program.
We should canonicalize the modes as we read them so that the user never
sees the useless warning.
A few notes on the tests:
- I've covered instances of all lines for completeness, even though
the "new mode" / "new file mode" ones behave OK currently.
- the tests apply patches to both the index and working tree, and
check the result of both. Again, we know that all of these paths
canonicalize anyway, but it's giving us extra coverage (although we
are even less likely to have such a bug now since we canonicalize up
front).
- the test patches are missing "index" lines, which is also something
Git would never produce. But they don't matter for the test, they do
match the case from quilt we saw in the wild, and they avoid some
sha1/sha256 complexity.

t5500: fix mistaken $SERVER reference in helper function
The end of t5500 contains two tests which use a single helper function,
fetch_filter_blob_limit_zero(). It takes a parameter to point to the
path of the server repository, which we store locally as $SERVER. The
first caller uses the relative path "server", while the second points
into the httpd document root.
Commit 07ef3c6604 (fetch test: use more robust test for filtered
objects, 2019-12-23) refactored some lines, but accidentally switched
"$SERVER" to "server" in one spot. That means the second caller is
looking at the server directory from the previous test rather than its
own.
This happens to work out because the "server" directory from the first
test is still hanging around, and the contents of the two are identical.
But it was clearly not the intended behavior, and is fragile to cleaning
up the leftovers from the first test.

fetch-pack: fix segfault when fscking without --lock-pack
The fetch-pack internals have multiple options related to creating
".keep" lock-files for the received pack:
- if args.lock_pack is set, then we tell index-pack to create a .keep
file. In the fetch-pack plumbing command, this is triggered by
passing "-k" twice.
- if the caller passes in a pack_lockfiles string list, then we use it
to record the path of the keep-file created by index-pack. We get
that name by reading the stdout of index-pack. In the fetch-pack
command, this is triggered by passing the (undocumented) --lock-pack
option; without it, we pass in a NULL string list.
So it's possible to ask index-pack to create the lock-file (using "-k
-k") but not ask to record it (by avoiding "--lock-pack"). This worked
fine until 5476e1efde (fetch-pack: print and use dangling .gitmodules,
2021-02-22), but now it causes a segfault.
Before that commit, if pack_lockfiles was NULL, we wouldn't bother
reading the output from index-pack at all. But since that commit,
index-pack may produce extra output if we asked it to fsck. So even if
nobody cares about the lockfile path, we still need to read it to skip
to the output we do care about.
We correctly check that we didn't get a NULL lockfile path (which can
happen if we did not ask it to create a .keep file at all), but we
missed the case where the lockfile path is not NULL (due to "-k -k") but
the pack_lockfiles string_list is NULL (because nobody passed
"--lock-pack"), and segfault trying to add to the NULL string-list.
We can fix this by skipping the append to the string list when either
the value or the list is NULL. In that case we must also free the
lockfile path to avoid leaking it when it's non-NULL.
Nobody noticed the bug for so long because the transport code used by
"git fetch" always passes in a pack_lockfiles pointer, and remote-curl
(the main user of the fetch-pack plumbing command) always passes
--lock-pack.

dir.c: reduce max pattern file size to 100MB
In a2bc523e1e (dir.c: skip .gitignore, etc larger than INT_MAX,
2024-05-31) we put capped the size of some files whose parsing code and
data structures used ints. Setting the limit to INT_MAX was a natural
spot, since we know the parsing code would misbehave above that.
But it also leaves the possibility of overflow errors when we multiply
that limit to allocate memory. For instance, a file consisting only of
"a\na\n..." could have INT_MAX/2 entries. Allocating an array of
pointers for each would need INT_MAX*4 bytes on a 64-bit system, enough
to overflow a 32-bit int.
So let's give ourselves a bit more safety margin by giving a much
smaller limit. The size 100MB is somewhat arbitrary, but is based on the
similar value for attribute files added by 3c50032ff5 (attr: ignore
overly large gitattributes files, 2022-12-01).
There's no particular reason these have to be the same, but the idea is
that they are in the ballpark of "so huge that nobody would care, but
small enough to avoid malicious overflow". So lacking a better guess, it
makes sense to use the same value. The implementation here doesn't share
the same constant, but we could change that later (or even give it a
runtime config knob, though nobody has complained yet about the
attribute limit).
And likewise, let's add a few tests that exercise the limits, based on
the attr ones. In this case, though, we never read .gitignore from the
index; the blob code is exercised only for sparse filters. So we'll
trigger it that way.

dir.c: skip .gitignore, etc larger than INT_MAX
We use add_patterns() to read .gitignore, .git/info/exclude, etc, as
well as other pattern-like files like sparse-checkout. The parser for
these uses an "int" as an index, meaning that files over 2GB will
generally cause signed integer overflow and out-of-bounds access.
This is unlikely to happen in any real files, but we do read .gitignore
files from the tree. A malicious tree could cause an out-of-bounds read
and segfault (we also write NULs over newlines, so in theory it could be
an out-of-bounds write, too, but as we go char-by-char, the first thing
that happens is trying to read a negative 2GB offset).
We could fix the most obvious issue by replacing one "int" with a
"size_t". But there are tons of "int" sprinkled throughout this code for
things like pattern lengths, number of patterns, and so on. Since nobody
would actually want a 2GB .gitignore file, an easy defensive measure is
to just refuse to parse them.
The "int" in question is in add_patterns_from_buffer(), so we could
catch it there. But by putting the checks in its two callers, we can

macOS: ls-files path fails if path of workdir is NFD
Under macOS, `git ls-files path` does not work (gives an error)
if the absolute 'path' contains characters in NFD (decomposed).
This happens when core.precomposeunicode is true, which is the
most common case. The bug report says:
$ cd somewhere # some safe place, /tmp or ~/tmp etc.
$ mkdir $'u\xcc\x88' # ü in NFD
$ cd ü # or cd $'u\xcc\x88' or cd $'\xc3\xbc'
$ git init
$ git ls-files $'/somewhere/u\xcc\x88' # NFD
fatal: /somewhere/ü: '/somewhere/ü' is outside repository at '/somewhere/ü'
$ git ls-files $'/somewhere/\xc3\xbc' # NFC
(the same error as above)
In the 'fatal:' error message, there are three ü;
the 1st and 2nd are in NFC, the 3rd is in NFD.
Add test cases that follows the bug report, with the simplification
that the 'ü' is replaced by an 'ä', which is already used as NFD and
NFC in t3910.
The solution is to add a call to precompose_string_if_needed()
to this code in setup.c :
`work_tree = precompose_string_if_needed(get_git_work_tree());`
There is, however, a limitation with this very usage of Git:
The (repo) local .gitconfig file is not used, only the global
"core.precomposeunicode" is taken into account, if it is set (or not).
To set it to true is a good recommendation anyway, and here is the
analyzes from Jun T :
The problem is the_repository->config->hash_initialized
is set to 1 before the_repository->commondir is set to ".git".
Due to this, .git/config is never read, and precomposed_unicode
is never set to 1 (remains -1).
run_builtin() {
setup_git_directory() {
strbuf_getcwd() { # setup.c:1542

designed to help the user when they cherry-pick a merge and forget to
pass "-m". For users who are rebasing the message is confusing as there
is no way for rebase to cherry-pick the merge.
Improve the user experience by detecting the error and printing some
advice on how to fix it when the todo list is parsed rather than waiting
for the "pick" command to fail. The advice recommends "merge" rather
than "exec git cherry-pick -m ..." on the assumption that cherry-picking
merges is relatively rare and it is more likely that the user chose
"pick" by a mistake.
It would be possible to support cherry-picking merges by allowing the

Revert "fsck: warn about symlink pointing inside a gitdir"
This reverts commit a33fea08 (fsck: warn about symlink pointing
inside a gitdir, 2024-04-10), which warns against symbolic links
commonly created by git-annex.
The same error can also be triggered when re-initializing an already
existing repository.
The bug has been introduced in 173761e21b (setup: start tracking ref
storage format, 2023-12-29), which wired up the ref storage format. The
root cause is in `init_db()`, which tries to read the config before we
have initialized `the_repository` and most importantly its ref storage
format. We eventually end up calling `include_by_branch()` and execute
`refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()`, but because we have not initialized the ref
storage format yet this will trigger the above bug.
Interestingly, `include_by_branch()` has a mechanism that will only
cause us to resolve the ref when `the_repository->gitdir` is set. This
is also the reason why this only happens when we initialize an already
existing directory or repository: `gitdir` is set in those cases, but
not when creating a new directory.
Now there are two ways to address the issue:
- We can adapt `include_by_branch()` to also make the code conditional
on whether `the_repository->ref_storage_format` is set.
- We can shift around code such that we initialize the repository
format before we read the config.
While the first approach would be safe, it may also cause us to paper
over issues where a ref store should have been set up. In our case for
example, it may be reasonable to expect that re-initializing the repo
will cause the "onbranch:" condition to trigger, but we would not do
that if the ref storage format was not set up yet. This also used to
work before the above commit that introduced this bug.
Rearrange the code such that we set up the repository format before
reading the config. This fixes the bug and ensures that "onbranch:"
conditions can trigger.

clone: drop the protections where hooks aren't run
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).

tests: verify that `clone -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null` works again
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.

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>

As far as I can tell, this has been the case for a long time, and this
