When we generate tar headers, we sprintf() values directly
into a struct with the fixed-size header values. For the
most part this is fine, as we are formatting small values
(e.g., the octal format of "mode & 0x7777" is of fixed
length). But it's still a good idea to use xsnprintf here.
It communicates to readers what our expectation is, and it
provides a run-time check that we are not overflowing the
buffers.
The one exception here is the mtime, which comes from the
epoch time of the commit we are archiving. For sane values,
this fits into the 12-byte value allocated in the header.
But since git can handle 64-bit times, if I claim to be a
visitor from the year 10,000 AD, I can overflow the buffer.
This turns out to be harmless, as we simply overflow into
the chksum field, which is then overwritten.
This case is also best as an xsnprintf. It should never come
up, short of extremely malformed dates, and in that case we
are probably better off dying than silently truncating the
date value (and we cannot expand the size of the buffer,
since it is dictated by the ustar format). Our friends in
the year 5138 (when we legitimately flip to a 12-digit
epoch) can deal with that problem then.

We sometimes sprintf into fixed-size buffers when we know
that the buffer is large enough to fit the input (either
because it's a constant, or because it's numeric input that
is bounded in size). Likewise with strcpy of constant
strings.
However, these sites make it hard to audit sprintf and
strcpy calls for buffer overflows, as a reader has to
cross-reference the size of the array with the input. Let's
use xsnprintf instead, which communicates to a reader that
we don't expect this to overflow (and catches the mistake in
case we do).

Our compat inet_ntop4 function writes to a temporary buffer
with snprintf, and then uses strcpy to put the result into
the final "dst" buffer. We check the return value of
snprintf against the size of "dst", but fail to account for
the NUL terminator. As a result, we may overflow "dst" with
a single NUL. In practice, this doesn't happen because the
output of inet_ntop is limited, and we provide buffers that
are way oversized.
We can fix the off-by-one check easily, but while we are
here let's also use strlcpy for increased safety, just in
case there are other bugs lurking.
As a side note, this compat code seems to be BSD-derived.
Searching for "vixie inet_ntop" turns up NetBSD's latest
version of the same code, which has an identical fix (and
switches to strlcpy, too!).

When dumping a cache-tree, we sprintf sub-tree names directly
into a fixed-size buffer, which can overflow. We can
trivially fix this by converting to xsnprintf to at least

This probably should handle arbitrary-sized names, but
there's not much point. It's used only by the test scripts,
so the trivial fix is enough.

Coverity noticed that we strncpy() into a fixed-size buffer
without making sure that it actually ended up
NUL-terminated. This is unlikely to be a bug in practice,
since throughput strings rarely hit 32 characters, but it
would be nice to clean it up.
The most obvious way to do so is to add a NUL-terminator.
But instead, this patch switches the fixed-size buffer out
for a strbuf. At first glance this seems much less
efficient, until we realize that filling in the fixed-size
buffer is done by writing into a strbuf and copying the
result!
By writing straight to the buffer, we actually end up more
efficient:
1. We avoid an extra copy of the bytes.
2. Rather than malloc/free each time progress is shown, we
can strbuf_reset and use the same buffer each time.

When we output GIT_TRACE_SETUP paths, we quote any
meta-characters. But our buffer to hold the result is only
PATH_MAX bytes, and we could double the size of the input
path (if every character needs quoting). We could use a
2*PATH_MAX buffer, if we assume the input will never be more
than PATH_MAX. But it's easier still to just switch to a
strbuf and not worry about whether the input can exceed
PATH_MAX or not.
The original copied the "p2" pointer to "p1", advancing
both. Since this gets rid of "p1", let's also drop "p2",
whose name is now confusing. We can just advance the
original "path" pointer.

There are several PATH_MAX-sized buffers in mailsplit, along
with some questionable uses of sprintf. These are not
really of security interest, as local mailsplit pathnames
are not typically under control of an attacker, and you
could generally only overflow a few numbers at the end of a
path that approaches PATH_MAX (a longer path would choke
mailsplit long before). But it does not hurt to be careful,
and as a bonus we lift some limits for systems with
too-small PATH_MAX varibles.

already been vetted by the alternates subsystem. But that is

The sha1_to_hex and find_unique_abbrev functions always
write into reusable static buffers. There are a few problems
with this:
- future calls overwrite our result. This is especially
annoying with find_unique_abbrev, which does not have a
ring of buffers, so you cannot even printf() a result
that has two abbreviated sha1s.
- if you want to put the result into another buffer, we
often strcpy, which looks suspicious when auditing for
overflows.
This patch introduces sha1_to_hex_r and find_unique_abbrev_r,
which write into a user-provided buffer. Of course this is
just punting on the overflow-auditing, as the buffer
obviously needs to be GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ + 1 bytes. But it is
much easier to audit, since that is a well-known size.
We retain the non-reentrant forms, which just become thin
wrappers around the reentrant ones. This patch also adds a
strbuf variant of find_unique_abbrev, which will be handy in
later patches.

If you have a function that uses git_path a lot, but would
prefer to avoid the static buffers, it's useful to keep a
single scratch buffer locally and reuse it for each call.
You used to be able to do this with git_snpath:
char buf[PATH_MAX];
foo(git_snpath(buf, sizeof(buf), "foo"));
bar(git_snpath(buf, sizeof(buf), "bar"));
but since 1a83c24, git_snpath has been replaced with
strbuf_git_path. This is good, because it removes the
arbitrary PATH_MAX limit. But using strbuf_git_path is more
awkward for two reasons:
1. It adds to the buffer, rather than replacing it. This
is consistent with other strbuf functions, but makes
reuse of a single buffer more tedious.
2. It doesn't return the buffer, so you can't format
as part of a function's arguments.
The new git_path_buf solves both of these, so you can use it
like:
struct strbuf buf = STRBUF_INIT;
foo(git_path_buf(&buf, "foo"));
bar(git_path_buf(&buf, "bar"));
strbuf_release(&buf);

There are a number of places in the code where we call
sprintf(), with the assumption that the output will fit into
the buffer. In many cases this is true (e.g., formatting a
number into a large buffer), but it is hard to tell
immediately from looking at the code. It would be nice if we
had some run-time check to make sure that our assumption is
correct (and to communicate to readers of the code that we
are not blindly calling sprintf, but have actually thought
about this case).
This patch introduces xsnprintf, which behaves just like
snprintf, except that it dies whenever the output is
truncated. This acts as a sort of assert() for these cases,
which can help find places where the assumption is violated
(as opposed to truncating and proceeding, which may just
silently give a wrong answer).

The definition of log_div() appended information to the web server's

right after a request is served (which is done by git-http-backend);
the web server waits for the git-http-backend process to exit before
it writes to the log file. When the duration between serving a request
and exiting was long, the log_div() output was written before the last
request's log, and the test failed. (This duration could become
especially long for PROFILE=GEN builds.)
To get rid of this behavior, we should not change the logfile at all.

known-good subset of protocols.
Note that we apply this restriction to all submodule
commands, whether the URL comes from .gitmodules or not.
This is more restrictive than we need to be; for example, in
the tests we run:
git submodule add ext::...
which should be trusted, as the URL comes directly from the
command line provided by the user. But doing it this way is
simpler, and makes it much less likely that we would miss a
case. And since such protocols should be an exception
(especially because nobody who clones from them will be able
to update the submodules!), it's not likely to inconvenience
anyone in practice.

If we are cloning an untrusted remote repository into a
sandbox, we may also want to fetch remote submodules in
order to get the complete view as intended by the other
side. However, that opens us up to attacks where a malicious
user gets us to clone something they would not otherwise
have access to (this is not necessarily a problem by itself,
but we may then act on the cloned contents in a way that
exposes them to the attacker).
Ideally such a setup would sandbox git entirely away from
high-value items, but this is not always practical or easy
to set up (e.g., OS network controls may block multiple
protocols, and we would want to enable some but not others).
We can help this case by providing a way to restrict
particular protocols. We use a whitelist in the environment.
This is more annoying to set up than a blacklist, but
defaults to safety if the set of protocols git supports
grows). If no whitelist is specified, we continue to default
to allowing all protocols (this is an "unsafe" default, but
since the minority of users will want this sandboxing
effect, it is the only sensible one).
A note on the tests: ideally these would all be in a single
test file, but the git-daemon and httpd test infrastructure
is an all-or-nothing proposition rather than a test-by-test
prerequisite. By putting them all together, we would be
unable to test the file-local code on machines without

In order for it to detect that the directory under examination should

Basename matching (i.e. "no slashes in the pattern") or must-be-dir
matching (i.e. "trailing slash in the pattern") does not work well with
this. For example, if we descend in "foo" and are examining "foo/abc",
