It was reported that creating a stash with `--keep-index
--include-untracked` causes an error when HEAD points to a commit whose
tree is empty:
$ git stash push --keep-index --include-untracked
error: pathspec ':/' did not match any file(s) known to git
This error comes from `git checkout --no-overlay $i_tree -- :/`, which
we execute to reset the working tree to the state in our index. As the
tree generated from the index is empty in our case, ':/' does not match
any files and thus causes git-checkout(1) to error out.
Fix the issue by skipping the checkout when the index tree is empty. As
explained in the in-code comment, this should be the correct thing to do
as there is nothing that we'd have to reset in the first place.

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.

Critical security issues typically combine relatively common
vulnerabilities such as case confusion in file paths with other
weaknesses in order to raise the severity of the attack.
One such weakness that has haunted the Git project in many a
submodule-related CVE is that any hooks that are found are executed
during a clone operation. Examples are the `post-checkout` and
`fsmonitor` hooks.
However, Git's design calls for hooks to be disabled by default, as only
disabled example hooks are copied over from the templates in
`<prefix>/share/git-core/templates/`.
As a defense-in-depth measure, let's prevent those hooks from running.
Obviously, administrators can choose to drop enabled hooks into the
template directory, though, _and_ it is also possible to override
`core.hooksPath`, in which case the new check needs to be disabled.

Submodules are stored in subdirectories of their superproject. When
these subdirectories have been replaced with symlinks by a malicious
actor, all kinds of mayhem can be caused.
This _should_ not be possible, but many CVEs in the past showed that
_when_ possible, it allows attackers to slip in code that gets executed
during, say, a `git clone --recursive` operation.
Let's add some defense-in-depth to disallow submodule paths to have
anything except directories in them.

In 0060fd1511 (clone --recurse-submodules: prevent name squatting on
Windows, 2019-09-12), I introduced code to verify that a git dir either
does not exist, or is at least empty, to fend off attacks where an
inadvertently (and likely maliciously) pre-populated git dir would be
used while cloning submodules recursively.
The logic used `access(<path>, X_OK)` to verify that a directory exists
before calling `is_empty_dir()` on it. That is a curious way to check
for a directory's existence and might well fail for unwanted reasons.
Even the original author (it was I ;-) ) struggles to explain why this
function was used rather than `stat()`.
This code was _almost_ copypastad in the previous commit, but that
`access()` call was caught during review.
Let's use `stat()` instead also in the code that was almost copied
verbatim. Let's not use `lstat()` because in the unlikely event that
somebody snuck a symbolic link in, pointing to a crafted directory, we
want to verify that that directory is empty.

When creating a submodule path, we must be careful not to follow
symbolic links. Otherwise we may follow a symbolic link pointing to
a gitdir (which are valid symbolic links!) e.g. while cloning.
On case-insensitive filesystems, however, we blindly replace a directory
that has been created as part of the `clone` operation with a symlink
when the path to the latter differs only in case from the former's path.
Let's simply avoid this situation by expecting not ever having to
overwrite any existing file/directory/symlink upon cloning. That way, we
won't even replace a directory that we just created.
This addresses CVE-2024-32002.

While it is expected to have several git dirs within the `.git/modules/`
tree, it is important that they do not interfere with each other. For
example, if one submodule was called "captain" and another submodule
"captain/hooks", their respective git dirs would clash, as they would be
located in `.git/modules/captain/` and `.git/modules/captain/hooks/`,
respectively, i.e. the latter's files could clash with the actual Git
hooks of the former.
To prevent these clashes, and in particular to prevent hooks from being
written and then executed as part of a recursive clone, we introduced
checks as part of the fix for CVE-2019-1387 in a8dee3ca61 (Disallow
dubiously-nested submodule git directories, 2019-10-01).
It is currently possible to bypass the check for clashing submodule
git dirs in two ways:
1. parallel cloning
2. checkout --recurse-submodules
Let's check not only before, but also after parallel cloning (and before
checking out the submodule), that the git dir is not clashing with
another one, otherwise fail. This addresses the parallel cloning issue.
As to the parallel checkout issue: It requires quite a few manual steps
to create clashing git dirs because Git itself would refuse to
initialize the inner one, as demonstrated by the test case.
Nevertheless, let's teach the recursive checkout (namely, the
`submodule_move_head()` function that is used by the recursive checkout)
to be careful to verify that it does not use a clashing git dir, and if
it does, disable it (by deleting the `HEAD` file so that subsequent Git
calls won't recognize it as a git dir anymore).
Note: The parallel cloning test case contains a `cat err` that proved to
be highly useful when analyzing the racy nature of the operation (the
operation can fail with three different error messages, depending on
timing), and was left on purpose to ease future debugging should the
need arise.

The upload-pack command tries to avoid trusting the repository in which
it's run (e.g., by not running any hooks and not using any config that
contains arbitrary commands). But if the server side of a fetch or a
clone is a partial clone, then either upload-pack or its child
pack-objects may run a lazy "git fetch" under the hood. And it is very
easy to convince fetch to run arbitrary commands.
The "server" side can be a local repository owned by someone else, who
would be able to configure commands that are run during a clone with the
current user's permissions. This issue has been designated
CVE-2024-32004.
The fix in this commit's parent helps in this scenario, as well as in
related scenarios using SSH to clone, where the untrusted .git directory
is owned by a different user id. But if you received one as a zip file,
on a USB stick, etc, it may be owned by your user but still untrusted.
This has been designated CVE-2024-32465.
To mitigate the issue more completely, let's disable lazy fetching
entirely during `upload-pack`. While fetching from a partial repository
should be relatively rare, it is certainly not an unreasonable workflow.
And thus we need to provide an escape hatch.
This commit works by respecting a GIT_NO_LAZY_FETCH environment variable
(to skip the lazy-fetch), and setting it in upload-pack, but only when
the user has not already done so (which gives us the escape hatch).
The name of the variable is specifically chosen to match what has
already been added in 'master' via e6d5479e7a (git: extend
--no-lazy-fetch to work across subprocesses, 2024-02-27). Since we're
building this fix as a backport for older versions, we could cherry-pick
that patch and its earlier steps. However, we don't really need the
niceties (like a "--no-lazy-fetch" option) that it offers. By using the
same name, everything should just work when the two are eventually
merged, but here are a few notes:
- the blocking of the fetch in e6d5479e7a is incomplete! It sets
fetch_if_missing to 0 when we setup the repository variable, but
that isn't enough. pack-objects in particular will call
prefetch_to_pack() even if that variable is 0. This patch by
contrast checks the environment variable at the lowest level before
we call the lazy fetch, where we can be sure to catch all code
paths.
Possibly the setting of fetch_if_missing from e6d5479e7a can be
reverted, but it may be useful to have. For example, some code may
want to use that flag to change behavior before it gets to the point
of trying to start the fetch. At any rate, that's all outside the
scope of this patch.
- there's documentation for GIT_NO_LAZY_FETCH in e6d5479e7a. We can
live without that here, because for the most part the user shouldn't
need to set it themselves. The exception is if they do want to
override upload-pack's default, and that requires a separate
documentation section (which is added here)
- it would be nice to use the NO_LAZY_FETCH_ENVIRONMENT macro added by
e6d5479e7a, but those definitions have moved from cache.h to
environment.h between 2.39.3 and master. I just used the raw string
literals, and we can replace them with the macro once this topic is
merged to master.
At least with respect to CVE-2024-32004, this does render this commit's
parent commit somewhat redundant. However, it is worth retaining that
commit as defense in depth, and because it may help other issues (e.g.,
symlink/hardlink TOCTOU races, where zip files are not really an
interesting attack vector).
The tests in t0411 still pass, but now we have _two_ mechanisms ensuring
that the evil command is not run. Let's beef up the existing ones to
check that they failed for the expected reason, that we refused to run
upload-pack at all with an alternate user id. And add two new ones for
the same-user case that both the restriction and its escape hatch.

When performing a local clone of a repository we end up either copying
or hardlinking the source repository into the target repository. This is
significantly more performant than if we were to use git-upload-pack(1)
and git-fetch-pack(1) to create the new repository and preserves both
disk space and compute time.
Unfortunately though, performing such a local clone of a repository that
is not owned by the current user is inherently unsafe:
- It is possible that source files get swapped out underneath us while
we are copying or hardlinking them. While we do perform some checks
here to assert that we hardlinked the expected file, they cannot
reliably thwart time-of-check-time-of-use (TOCTOU) style races. It
is thus possible for an adversary to make us copy or hardlink
unexpected files into the target directory.
Ideally, we would address this by starting to use openat(3P),
fstatat(3P) and friends. Due to platform compatibility with Windows
we cannot easily do that though. Furthermore, the scope of these
fixes would likely be quite broad and thus not fit for an embargoed
security release.
- Even if we handled TOCTOU-style races perfectly, hardlinking files
owned by a different user into the target repository is not a good
idea in general. It is possible for an adversary to rewrite those
files to contain whatever data they want even after the clone has
completed.
Address these issues by completely refusing local clones of a repository
that is not owned by the current user. This reuses our existing infra we
have in place via `ensure_valid_ownership()` and thus allows a user to
override the safety guard by adding the source repository path to the
"safe.directory" configuration.
This addresses CVE-2024-32020.

When a user performs a local clone without `--no-local`, then we end up
copying the source repository into the target repository directly. To
optimize this even further, we try to hardlink files into place instead
of copying data over, which helps both disk usage and speed.
There is an important edge case in this context though, namely when we
try to hardlink symlinks from the source repository into the target
repository. Depending on both platform and filesystem the resulting
behaviour here can be different:
- On macOS and NetBSD, calling link(3P) with a symlink target creates
a hardlink to the file pointed to by the symlink.
- On Linux, calling link(3P) instead creates a hardlink to the symlink
itself.
To unify this behaviour, 36596fd2df (clone: better handle symlinked
files at .git/objects/, 2019-07-10) introduced logic to resolve symlinks
before we try to link(3P) files. Consequently, the new behaviour was to
always create a hard link to the target of the symlink on all platforms.
Eventually though, we figured out that following symlinks like this can
cause havoc when performing a local clone of a malicious repository,
which resulted in CVE-2022-39253. This issue was fixed via 6f054f9fb3
(builtin/clone.c: disallow `--local` clones with symlinks, 2022-07-28),
by refusing symlinks in the source repository.
But even though we now shouldn't ever link symlinks anymore, the code
that resolves symlinks still exists. In the best case the code does not
end up doing anything because there are no symlinks anymore. In the
worst case though this can be abused by an adversary that rewrites the
source file after it has been checked not to be a symlink such that it
actually is a symlink when we call link(3P). Thus, it is still possible
to recreate CVE-2022-39253 due to this time-of-check-time-of-use bug.
Remove the call to `realpath()`. This doesn't yet address the actual
vulnerability, which will be handled in a subsequent commit.

Some passwords have an expiry date known at generation. This may be
years away for a personal access token or hours for an OAuth access
token.
When multiple credential helpers are configured, `credential fill` tries
each helper in turn until it has a username and password, returning
early. If Git authentication succeeds, `credential approve`
stores the successful credential in all helpers. If authentication
fails, `credential reject` erases matching credentials in all helpers.
Helpers implement corresponding operations: get, store, erase.
The credential protocol has no expiry attribute, so helpers cannot
store expiry information. Even if a helper returned an improvised
expiry attribute, git credential discards unrecognised attributes
between operations and between helpers.
This is a particular issue when a storage helper and a
credential-generating helper are configured together:
[credential]
helper = storage # eg. cache or osxkeychain
helper = generate # eg. oauth
`credential approve` stores the generated credential in both helpers
without expiry information. Later `credential fill` may return an
expired credential from storage. There is no workaround, no matter how
clever the second helper. The user sees authentication fail (a retry
will succeed).
Introduce a password expiry attribute. In `credential fill`, ignore
expired passwords and continue to query subsequent helpers.
In the example above, `credential fill` ignores the expired password
and a fresh credential is generated. If authentication succeeds,
`credential approve` replaces the expired password in storage.
If authentication fails, the expired credential is erased by
`credential reject`. It is unnecessary but harmless for storage
helpers to self prune expired credentials.
Add support for the new attribute to credential-cache.
Eventually, I hope to see support in other popular storage helpers.

Add a trivial rule for "write_cache_as_tree" to
"index-compatibility.cocci", and apply it. This was left out of the
rules added in 0e6550a2c6 (cocci: add a
index-compatibility.pending.cocci, 2022-11-19) because this
compatibility wrapper lived in "cache-tree.h", not "cache.h"
But it's like the other "USE_THE_INDEX_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS", so let's
migrate it too.
The replacement of "USE_THE_INDEX_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS" here with
"USE_THE_INDEX_VARIABLE" is a manual change on top, now that these
files only use "&the_index", and don't need any compatibility
macros (or functions).
The wrapping of some argument lists is likewise manual, as coccinelle
would otherwise give us overly long argument lists.
The reason for putting the "O" in the cocci rule on the "-" and "+"
lines is because I couldn't get correct whitespacing otherwise,
i.e. I'd end up with "oid,&the_index", not "oid, &the_index".

Apply the rule added in [1] to change "cache_name_pos" to
"index_name_pos", which allows us to get rid of another
"USE_THE_INDEX_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS" macro.

Apply the "active_nr" part of "index-compatibility.pending.cocci",
which was left out in [1] due to an in-flight conflict. As of [2] the
topic we conflicted with has been merged to "master", so we can fully
apply this rule.

Replace the "USE_THE_INDEX_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS" define with the
narrower "USE_THE_INDEX_VARIABLE". This could have been done in
07047d6829 (cocci: apply "pending" index-compatibility to some
"builtin/*.c", 2022-11-19), but I missed it at the time.

"git pack-objects" learned to release delta-island bitmap data when
it is done using it, saving peak heap memory usage.

Commit 7550424804 ("name-rev: include taggerdate in considering the best
name", 2016-04-22) introduced the idea of using taggerdate in the
criteria for selecting the best name. At the time, a certain commit in
linux.git -- namely, aed06b9cfcab -- was being named by name-rev as
v4.6-rc1~9^2~792
which, while correct, was very suboptimal. Some investigation found
that tweaking the MERGE_TRAVERSAL_WEIGHT to lower it could give
alternate answers such as
v3.13-rc7~9^2~14^2~42
or
v3.13~5^2~4^2~2^2~1^2~42
A manual solution involving looking at tagger dates came up with
v3.13-rc1~65^2^2~42
which is much nicer. That workaround was then implemented in name-rev.
Unfortunately, the taggerdate heuristic is causing bugs. I was pointed
to a case in a private repository where name-rev reports a name of the
form
v2022.10.02~86
when users expected to see one of the form
v2022.10.01~2
(I've modified the names and numbers a bit from the real testcase.) As
you can probably guess, v2022.10.01 was created after v2022.10.02 (by a
few hours), even though it pointed to an older commit. While the
condition is unusual even in the repository in question, it is not the
only problematic set of tags in that repository. The taggerdate logic
is causing problems.
Further, it turns out that this taggerdate heuristic isn't even helping
anymore. Due to the fix to naming logic in 3656f84278 ("name-rev:
prefer shorter names over following merges", 2021-12-04), we get
improved names without the taggerdate heuristic. For the original
commit of interest in linux.git, a modern git without the taggerdate
heuristic still provides the same optimal answer of interest, namely:
v3.13-rc1~65^2^2~42
So, the taggerdate is no longer providing benefit, and it is causing
problems. Simply get rid of it.
However, note that "taggerdate" as a variable is used to store things
besides a taggerdate these days. Ever since commit ef1e74065c
("name-rev: favor describing with tags and use committer date to
tiebreak", 2017-03-29), this has been used to store committer dates and
there it is used as a fallback tiebreaker (as opposed to a primary
criteria overriding effective distance calculations). We do not want to
remove that fallback tiebreaker, so not all instances of "taggerdate"
are removed in this change.

Convert the invocation of the 'post-rewrite' hook run by 'git am' to
use the hook.h library. To do this we need to add a "path_to_stdin"
member to "struct run_hooks_opt".
In our API this is supported by asking for a file path, rather
than by reading stdin. Reading directly from stdin would involve caching
the entire stdin (to memory or to disk) once the hook API is made to
support "jobs" larger than 1, along with support for executing N hooks
at a time (i.e. the upcoming config-based hooks).

In [1] and [2] I added the code being moved here to cmd_revert() and
cmd_cherry_pick(), now that we've got a "replay_opts_release()" for
the "struct replay_opts" it should know how to free these "revs",
rather than having these users reach into the struct to free its
individual members.
