One-shot environment variable assignments, such as 'FOO' in
"FOO=bar cmd", exist only during the invocation of 'cmd'. However, if
'cmd' happens to be a shell function, then 'FOO' is assigned in the
executing shell itself, and that assignment remains until the process
exits (unless explicitly unset). Since this side-effect of
"FOO=bar shell_func" is unlikely to be intentional, detect and report
such usage.
To distinguish shell functions from other commands, perform a pre-scan
of shell scripts named as input, gleaning a list of function names by
recognizing lines of the form (loosely matching whitespace):
shell_func () {
and later report suspect lines of the form (loosely matching quoted
values):
FOO=bar [BAR=foo ...] shell_func
Also take care to stitch together incomplete lines (those ending with
"\") since suspect invocations may be split over multiple lines:
FOO=bar BAR=foo \
shell_func

Error messages emitted by this linting script are long and noisy,
consisting of several sections:
<test-script>:<line#>: error: <explanation>: <failed-shell-text>
The line of failed shell text, usually coming from within a test body,
is often indented by one or two TABs, with the result that the actual

space. This can make for a difficult read, especially on typical

Unlike "FOO=bar cmd" one-shot environment variable assignments
which exist only for the invocation of 'cmd', those assigned by
"FOO=bar shell_func" exist within the running shell and continue to
do so until the process exits (or are explicitly unset). It is
unlikely that this behavior was intended by the test author.
In these particular tests, the "FOO=bar shell_func" invocations are
already in subshells, so the assignments don't last too long, don't
appear to harm subsequent commands in the same subshells, and don't
affect other tests in the same scripts, however, the usage is
nevertheless misleading and poor practice, so fix the tests to assign
and export the environment variables in the usual fashion.

This test has been dysfunctional since it was added by 619acfc78c
(submodule add: extend force flag to add existing repos, 2016-10-06),
however, two problems early in the test went unnoticed due to a broken
&&-chain later in the test.
First, it tries configuring the submodule with repository "bogus-url",
however, "git submodule add" insists that the repository be either an
absolute URL or a relative pathname requiring prefix "./" or "../" (this
is true even with --force), but "bogus-url" does not meet those
criteria, thus the command fails.
Second, it then tries configuring a submodule with a path which is
.gitignore'd, which is disallowed. This restriction can be overridden
with --force, but the test neglects to use that option.
Fix both problems, as well as the broken &&-chain behind which they hid.

Most of our code has been converted to use struct object_id for object
IDs. However, there are some places that still have not, and there are
a variety of places that compare equivalently sized hashes that are not
object IDs. All of these hashes are artifacts of the internal hash
algorithm in use, and when we switch to NewHash for object storage, all
of these uses will also switch.
Update the hashcpy, hashclr, and hashcmp functions to use the_hash_algo,
since they are used in a variety of places to copy and manipulate
buffers that need to move data into or out of struct object_id. This
has the effect of making the corresponding oid* functions use
the_hash_algo as well.

Our color buffers are all COLOR_MAXLEN, which fits the
largest possible color. So we can never overflow the buffer
by copying an existing color. However, using strcpy() makes
it harder to audit the code-base for calls that _are_
problems. We should use something like xsnprintf(), which
shows the reader that we expect this never to fail (and
provides a run-time assertion if it does, just in case).

We added an fsck check in ed8b10f631 (fsck: check
.gitmodules content, 2018-05-02) as a defense against the
vulnerability from 0383bbb901 (submodule-config: verify
submodule names as paths, 2018-04-30). With the idea that
up-to-date hosting sites could protect downstream unpatched
clients that fetch from them.
As part of that defense, we reject any ".gitmodules" entry
that is not syntactically valid. The theory is that if we
cannot even parse the file, we cannot accurately check it
for vulnerabilities. And anybody with a broken .gitmodules
file would eventually want to know anyway.
But there are a few reasons this is a bad tradeoff in
practice:
- for this particular vulnerability, the client has to be
able to parse the file. So you cannot sneak an attack
through using a broken file, assuming the config parsers
for the process running fsck and the eventual victim are
functionally equivalent.
- a broken .gitmodules file is not necessarily a problem.
Our fsck check detects .gitmodules in _any_ tree, not
just at the root. And the presence of a .gitmodules file
does not necessarily mean it will be used; you'd have to
also have gitlinks in the tree. The cgit repository, for
example, has a file named .gitmodules from a
pre-submodule attempt at sharing code, but does not
actually have any gitlinks.
- when the fsck check is used to reject a push, it's often
hard to work around. The pusher may not have full control
over the destination repository (e.g., if it's on a
hosting server, they may need to contact the hosting
site's support). And the broken .gitmodules may be too
far back in history for rewriting to be feasible (again,
this is an issue for cgit).
So we're being unnecessarily restrictive without actually
improving the security in a meaningful way. It would be more
convenient to downgrade this check to "info", which means
we'd still comment on it, but not reject a push. Site admins
can already do this via config, but we should ship sensible
defaults.
There are a few counterpoints to consider in favor of
keeping the check as an error:
- the first point above assumes that the config parsers for
the victim and the fsck process are equivalent. This is
pretty true now, but as time goes on will become less so.
Hosting sites are likely to upgrade their version of Git,
whereas vulnerable clients will be stagnant (if they did
upgrade, they'd cease to be vulnerable!). So in theory we
may see drift over time between what two config parsers
will accept.
In practice, this is probably OK. The config format is
pretty established at this point and shouldn't change a
lot. And the farther we get from the announcement of the
vulnerability, the less interesting this extra layer of
protection becomes. I.e., it was _most_ valuable on day
0, when everybody's client was still vulnerable and
hosting sites could protect people. But as time goes on
and people upgrade, the population of vulnerable clients
becomes smaller and smaller.
- In theory this could protect us from other
vulnerabilities in the future. E.g., .gitmodules are the
only way for a malicious repository to feed data to the
config parser, so this check could similarly protect
clients from a future (to-be-found) bug there.
But that's trading a hypothetical case for real-world
pain today. If we do find such a bug, the hosting site
would need to be updated to fix it, too. At which point
we could figure out whether it's possible to detect
_just_ the malicious case without hurting existing
broken-but-not-evil cases.
- Until recently, we hadn't made any restrictions on
.gitmodules content. So now in tightening that we're
hitting cases where certain things used to work, but
don't anymore. There's some moderate pain now. But as
time goes on, we'll see more (and more varied) cases that
will make tightening harder in the future. So there's
some argument for putting rules in place _now_, before
users grow more cases that violate them.
Again, this is trading pain now for hypothetical benefit
in the future. And if we try hard in the future to keep
our tightening to a minimum (i.e., rejecting true
maliciousness without hurting broken-but-not-evil repos),
then that reduces even the hypothetical benefit.
Considering both sets of arguments, it makes sense to loosen
this check for now.
Note that we have to tweak the test in t7415 since fsck will
no longer consider this a fatal error. But we still check
that it reports the warning, and that we don't get the
spurious error from the config code.
