* parsing.c (substr): Handle tail < head.
This started when I noticed some cgit segfaults on savannah.gnu.org.
Finding the offending URL/commit and then constructing a stand-alone
reproducer were far more time-consuming than writing the actual patch.
The problem arises with a commit like this, in which the user name
part of the "Author" field is empty:
$ git log -1

Here's what happens:
(this is due to buf=malloc(0); strncpy (buf, head, -1);
where "head" may point to plenty of attacker-specified non-NUL bytes,
so we can overwrite a zero-length heap buffer with arbitrary data)

This happens when tail - head == -1 here:
(parsing.c)
char *substr(const char *head, const char *tail)
{
char *buf;
buf = xmalloc(tail - head + 1);
strncpy(buf, head, tail - head);
buf[tail - head] = '\0';
return buf;
}
char *parse_user(char *t, char **name, char **email, unsigned long *date)
{
char *p = t;
int mode = 1;
while (p && *p) {
if (mode == 1 && *p == '<') {
*name = substr(t, p - 1);
t = p;
mode++;
} else if (mode == 1 && *p == '\n') {
The fix is to handle the case of (tail < head) before calling xmalloc,
thus avoiding passing an invalid value to xmalloc.
And here's the reproducer:
It was tricky to reproduce, because git prohibits use of an empty "name"
in a commit ID. To construct the offending commit, I had to resort to
using "git hash-object".
git init -q foo &&
( cd foo &&
echo a > j && git add . && git ci -q --author='au <T at h.or>' -m. . &&
h=$(git cat-file commit HEAD|sed 's/au //' \
|git hash-object -t commit -w --stdin) &&
git co -q -b test $h &&
git br -q -D master &&
git br -q -m test master)
git clone -q --bare foo foo.git
cat <<EOF > in
repo.url=foo.git
repo.path=foo.git
EOF
CGIT_CONFIG=in QUERY_STRING=url=foo.git valgrind ./cgit
The valgrind output is what you see above.
AFAICS, this is not exploitable thanks (ironically) to the use of strncpy.
Since that -1 translates to SIZE_MAX and this is strncpy, not only does it
copy whatever is in "head" (up to first NUL), but it also writes
SIZE_MAX - strlen(head) NUL bytes into the destination buffer, and that
latter is guaranteed to evoke a segfault. Since cgit is single-threaded,
AFAICS, there is no way that the buffer clobbering can be turned into
an exploit.
Since cgit snapshots of tags are often used for releases, we don't
want the rarely used feature of the gzip compressor that includes
an embedded timestamp into the archive, since this makes each tarball
of the same (potentially signed) tag different.
This commit refactors the archive handling code a bit so that each
different format is able to run with an arbitrary argv for the filter.
Add two options, one for doing the ordinary name sorts in a
case-insensitive manner, and another for choosing to sort repos in each
section by age instead of by name.
Don't bother with 'body' and 'div#cgit form', since
everything is wrapped in 'div#cgit' already.
Removing these two types makes embedding even easier.

**L would have worked well too. Depending on the distribution sizeof *L
may return 8 instead of 4. **L is preferable, but since we don't expect
this datatype to change very often, sizeof int is less subtle and easier
to understand.

When a repository is empty, the ATOM feed link is written in the header,
but this involves formatting ctx->qry.head which is NULL in this case.
With glibc, vsnprintf formats "%s" with a NULL input as "(null)" but on
Solaris this results in a segmentation fault. Since we don't have a
meaningful head for the atom feed in an empty repository, it's simplest
not to write out the link element at all.

When side-by-side-diffs=1 was set in cgitrc, specifying 'ss=0' in the
querystring would not set the 'unified' option as active in the dropdown
box used to select diffmode.
When side-by-side-diffs=1 was set in cgitrc, specyfing 'ss=0' in the query-
string would not switch to unified diffs. This patch fixes the issue by
introducing a separate variable to track the occurrence of "ss" in the
querystring.
When the repolist is paged, the page-links are missing the sort parameter,
causing the initial page to be custom sorted, but any clicked page will
then be with the default sort order again.
Printing deferred line changes for files containing long lines would
cause a segfault.
- limit LCS table size: 128x128.
- move LCS table to global context: avoid allocating/freeing memory
for every deferred line change.

Some setenv() implementations (e.g. the one in OpenBSD's stdlib)
segfault if we pass a NULL value. Only set environment variables if the
corresponding settings are defined to avoid this.
Note that this is a minor behaviour change as environment variables were
supposed to be set to an empty string if a setting was undefined. Given
that this feature isn't part of any official release yet, there's no
need to worry about backwards compatibility, really. Change the
documentation accordingly.

Some tests would otherwise fail because commands such as
