Replace some uses of the deprecated mktemp function by EliahKagan · Pull Request #1770 · gitpython-developers/GitPython

added 2 commits

December 12, 2023 20:42
The tempfile.mktemp function is deprecated, because of a race
condition where the file may be concurrently created between when
its name is generated and when it is opened. Other faciliies in the
tempfile module overcome this by generating a name, attempting to
create the file or directory in a way that guarantees failure if it
already existed, and, in the occasional case that it did already
exist, generating another name and trying again (stopping after a
predefined limit). For further information on mktemp deprecation:

- https://docs.python.org/3/library/tempfile.html#tempfile.mktemp
- gitpython-developers/smmap#41

The security risk of calls to mktemp in this project's test suite
is low. However, it is still best to avoid using it, because it is
deprecated, because it is (at least slightly) brittle, and because
any use of mktemp looks like a potential security risk and thereby
imposes a burden on working with the code (which could potentially
be addressed with detailed comments analyzing why it is believed
safe in particular cases, but this would typically be more verbose,
and at least as challenging to add, as replacing mktemp with a
better alternative).

This commit replaces *some* uses of mktemp in the test suite: those
where it is readily clear how to do so in a way that preserves the
code's intent:

- Where a name for a temporary directory is generated with mktemp
  and os.mkdir is called immediately, mkdtemp is now used.

- Where a name for a temporary file that is not customized (such as
  with a prefix) is generated with mktemp, such that the code under
  test never uses the filename but only the already-open file-like
  object, TemporaryFile is now used. As the name isn't customized,
  the test code in these cases does not express an intent to allow
  the developer to inspect the file after a test failure, so even
  if the file wasn't guaranteed to be deleted with a finally block
  or context manager, it is fine to do so. TemporaryFile supports
  this use case well on all systems including Windows, and
  automatically deletes the file.

- Where a name for a temporary file that *is* customized (such as
  with a prefix) to reflect the way the test uses it is generated
  with mktemp, and the test code does not attempt deterministic
  deletion of the file when an exception would make the test fail,
  NamedTemporaryFile with delete=False is now used. The original
  code to remove the file when the test succeeds is modified
  accordingly to do the same job, and also commented to explain
  that it is being handled this way to allow the file to be kept
  and examined when a test failure occurs.

Other cases in the test suite should also be feasible to replace,
but are left alone for now. Some of them are ambiguous in their
intent, with respect to whether the file should be retained after a
test failure. Others appear deliberately to avoid creating a file
or directory where the code under test should do so, possibly to
check that this is done properly. (One way to preserve that latter
behavior, while avoiding the weakness of using mktemp and also
avoiding inadverently reproducing that weakness by other means,
could be to use a path in a temporary directory made for the test.)

This commit also doesn't address the one use of mktemp in the code
under test (i.e., outside the test suite, inside the git module).
This makes two related changes to git.index.util.TemporaryFileSwap:

- Replace mktemp with mkstemp and then immediately closing the file.
  This avoids two possible name clashes: the usual name clash where
  the file may be created by another process between when mktemp
  generates the name and when the file is created, and the problem
  that mktemp does not check for files that contain the generated
  name as a part. The latter is specific to the use here, where
  a string generated by mktemp was manually concatenated to the
  base filename. This addresses that by passing the filename as the
  prefix for mkstemp to use.

- Replace os.remove with os.replace and simplify. This is made
  necessary on Windows by the file already existing, due to mkstemp
  creating it. Deleting the file and allowing it to be recreated
  would reproduce the mktemp race condition in full (obscured and
  with extra steps). But os.replace supports an existing target
  file on all platforms. It is now also used in __exit__, where it
  allows the Windows check for the file to be removed, and (in any
  OS) better expresses the intent of the code to human readers.
  Furthermore, because one of the "look before you leap" checks in
  __exit__ is removed, the minor race condition in cleaning up the
  file is somewhat decreased.

A small amount of related refactoring is included. The interface is
not changed, even where it could be simplified (by letting __exit__
return None), and resource acquisition remains done on construction
rather than in __enter__, because changing those aspects of the
design could break some existing uses.

Although the use of mktemp replaced here was in the git module and
not the test suite, its use was to generate filenames for use in a
directory that would ordinarily be under the user's control, such
that the ability to carry out typical mktemp-related attacks would
already require the ability to achieve the same goals more easily
and reliably. Although TemporaryFileSwap is a public class that may
be used directly by applications, it is only useful for making a
temporary file in the same directory as an existing file. Thus the
intended benefits of this change are mainly to code quality and
a slight improvement in robustness.

This is a general test for TemporaryFileSwap, but by being
parametrized by the type of file_path, it reveals a regression
introduced in 9e86053 (gitpython-developers#1770). TemporaryFileSwap still works when
file_path is a string, but is now broken when it is a Path. That
worked before, and the type annotations document that it should
be able to work. This is at least a bug because TemporaryFileSwap
is public. (I am unsure whether, in practice, GitPython itself uses
it in a way that sometimes passes a Path object as file_path. But
code that uses GitPython may call it directly and pass Path.)

This fixes the regression introduced in 9e86053 (gitpython-developers#1770) where the
file_path argument to TemporaryFileSwap.__init__ could no longer be
a Path object.

The change also makes this truer to the code from before gitpython-developers#1770,
still without the race condition fixed there, in that str was
called on file_path then as well. However, it is not clear that
this is a good thing, because this is not an idiomatic use of
mkstemp. The reason the `prefix` cannot be a Path is that it is
expected to be a filename prefix, with leading directories given in
the `dir` argument.

### GitHub Vulnerability Alerts

####
[CVE-2024-22190](https://togithub.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython/security/advisories/GHSA-2mqj-m65w-jghx)

### Summary

This issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2023-40590. On
Windows, GitPython uses an untrusted search path if it uses a shell to
run `git`, as well as when it runs `bash.exe` to interpret hooks. If
either of those features are used on Windows, a malicious `git.exe` or
`bash.exe` may be run from an untrusted repository.

### Details

Although GitPython often avoids executing programs found in an untrusted
search path since 3.1.33, two situations remain where this still occurs.
Either can allow arbitrary code execution under some circumstances.

#### When a shell is used

GitPython can be told to run `git` commands through a shell rather than
as direct subprocesses, by passing `shell=True` to any method that
accepts it, or by both setting `Git.USE_SHELL = True` and not passing
`shell=False`. Then the Windows `cmd.exe` shell process performs the
path search, and GitPython does not prevent that shell from finding and
running `git` in the current directory.

When GitPython runs `git` directly rather than through a shell, the
GitPython process performs the path search, and currently omits the
current directory by setting `NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath` in its
own environment during the `Popen` call. Although the `cmd.exe` shell
will honor this environment variable when present, GitPython does not
currently pass it into the shell subprocess's environment.

Furthermore, because GitPython sets the subprocess CWD to the root of a
repository's working tree, using a shell will run a malicious `git.exe`
in an untrusted repository even if GitPython itself is run from a
trusted location.

This also applies if `Git.execute` is called directly with `shell=True`
(or after `Git.USE_SHELL = True`) to run any command.

#### When hook scripts are run

On Windows, GitPython uses `bash.exe` to run hooks that appear to be
scripts. However, unlike when running `git`, no steps are taken to avoid
finding and running `bash.exe` in the current directory.

This allows the author of an untrusted fork or branch to cause a
malicious `bash.exe` to be run in some otherwise safe workflows. An
example of such a scenario is if the user installs a trusted hook while
on a trusted branch, then switches to an untrusted feature branch
(possibly from a fork) to review proposed changes. If the untrusted
feature branch contains a malicious `bash.exe` and the user's current
working directory is the working tree, and the user performs an action
that runs the hook, then although the hook itself is uncorrupted, it
runs with the malicious `bash.exe`.

Note that, while `bash.exe` is a shell, this is a separate scenario from
when `git` is run using the unrelated Windows `cmd.exe` shell.

### PoC

On Windows, create a `git.exe` file in a repository. Then create a
`Repo` object, and call any method through it (directly or indirectly)
that supports the `shell` keyword argument with `shell=True`:

```powershell
mkdir testrepo
git init testrepo
cp ... testrepo git.exe # Replace "..." with any executable of choice.
python -c "import git; print(git.Repo('testrepo').git.version(shell=True))"
```

The `git.exe` executable in the repository directory will be run.

Or use no `Repo` object, but do it from the location with the `git.exe`:

```powershell
cd testrepo
python -c "import git; print(git.Git().version(shell=True))"
```

The `git.exe` executable in the current directory will be run.

For the scenario with hooks, install a hook in a repository, create a
`bash.exe` file in the current directory, and perform an operation that
causes GitPython to attempt to run the hook:

```powershell
mkdir testrepo
cd testrepo
git init
mv .git/hooks/pre-commit.sample .git/hooks/pre-commit
cp ... bash.exe # Replace "..." with any executable of choice.
echo "Some text" >file.txt
git add file.txt
python -c "import git; git.Repo().index.commit('Some message')"
```

The `bash.exe` executable in the current directory will be run.

### Impact

The greatest impact is probably in applications that set `Git.USE_SHELL
= True` for historical reasons. (Undesired console windows had, in the
past, been created in some kinds of applications, when it was not used.)
Such an application may be vulnerable to arbitrary code execution from a
malicious repository, even with no other exacerbating conditions. This
is to say that, if a shell is used to run `git`, the full effect of
CVE-2023-40590 is still present. Furthermore, as noted above, running
the application itself from a trusted directory is not a sufficient
mitigation.

An application that does not direct GitPython to use a shell to run
`git` subprocesses thus avoids most of the risk. However, there is no
such straightforward way to prevent GitPython from running `bash.exe` to
interpret hooks. So while the conditions needed for that to be exploited
are more involved, it may be harder to mitigate decisively prior to
patching.

### Possible solutions

A straightforward approach would be to address each bug directly:

- When a shell is used, pass `NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath` into
the subprocess environment, because in that scenario the subprocess is
the `cmd.exe` shell that itself performs the path search.
- Set `NoDefaultCurrentDirectoryInExePath` in the GitPython process
environment during the `Popen` call made to run hooks with a `bash.exe`
subprocess.

These need only be done on Windows.
