2025-01-30unix-socket: fix memory leak when chdir(3p) failsPatrick Steinhardt
When trying to create a Unix socket in a path that exceeds the maximum socket name length we try to first change the directory into the parent folder before creating the socket to reduce the length of the name. When this fails we error out of `unix_sockaddr_init()` with an error code, which indicates to the caller that the context has not been initialized. Consequently, they don't release that context. This leads to a memory leak: when we have already populated the context with the original directory that we need to chdir(3p) back into, but then the chdir(3p) into the socket's parent directory fails, then we won't release the original directory's path. The leak is exposed by t0301, but only when running tests in a directory hierarchy whose path is long enough to make the socket name length exceed the maximum socket name length: Direct leak of 129 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x5555555e85c6 in realloc.part.0 lsan_interceptors.cpp.o #1 0x55555590e3d6 in xrealloc ../wrapper.c:140:8 #2 0x5555558c8fc6 in strbuf_grow ../strbuf.c:114:2 #3 0x5555558cacab in strbuf_getcwd ../strbuf.c:605:3 #4 0x555555923ff6 in unix_sockaddr_init ../unix-socket.c:65:7 #5 0x555555923e42 in unix_stream_connect ../unix-socket.c:84:6 #6 0x55555562a984 in send_request ../builtin/credential-cache.c:46:11 #7 0x55555562a89e in do_cache ../builtin/credential-cache.c:108:6 #8 0x55555562a655 in cmd_credential_cache ../builtin/credential-cache.c:178:3 #9 0x555555700547 in run_builtin ../git.c:480:11 #10 0x5555556ff0e0 in handle_builtin ../git.c:740:9 #11 0x5555556ffee8 in run_argv ../git.c:807:4 #12 0x5555556fee6b in cmd_main ../git.c:947:19 #13 0x55555593f689 in main ../common-main.c:64:11 #14 0x7ffff7a2a1fb in __libc_start_call_main (/nix/store/h7zcxabfxa7v5xdna45y2hplj31ncf8a-glibc-2.40-36/lib/libc.so.6+0x2a1fb) (BuildId: 0a855678aa0cb573cecbb2bcc73ab8239ec472d0) #15 0x7ffff7a2a2b8 in __libc_start_main@GLIBC_2.2.5 (/nix/store/h7zcxabfxa7v5xdna45y2hplj31ncf8a-glibc-2.40-36/lib/libc.so.6+0x2a2b8) (BuildId: 0a855678aa0cb573cecbb2bcc73ab8239ec472d0) #16 0x5555555ad1d4 in _start (git+0x591d4) DEDUP_TOKEN: ___interceptor_realloc.part.0--xrealloc--strbuf_grow--strbuf_getcwd--unix_sockaddr_init--unix_stream_connect--send_request--do_cache--cmd_credential_cache--run_builtin--handle_builtin--run_argv--cmd_main--main--__libc_start_call_main--__libc_start_main@GLIBC_2.2.5--_start SUMMARY: LeakSanitizer: 129 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s).

2021-03-15unix-socket: disallow chdir() when creating unix domain socketsJeff Hostetler
Calls to `chdir()` are dangerous in a multi-threaded context. If `unix_stream_listen()` or `unix_stream_connect()` is given a socket pathname that is too long to fit in a `sockaddr_un` structure, it will `chdir()` to the parent directory of the requested socket pathname, create the socket using a relative pathname, and then `chdir()` back. This is not thread-safe. Teach `unix_sockaddr_init()` to not allow calls to `chdir()` when this flag is set.

2014-07-28unix-sockets: use strbuf_getcwd()René Scharfe
Instead of using a PATH_MAX-sized buffer, which can be too small on some file systems, use strbuf_getcwd(), which handles any path getcwd() returns. Also preserve the errno set by strbuf_getcwd() instead of setting it to ENAMETOOLONG; that way a more appropriate error message can be shown based on the actual reason for failing.

2014-07-21unix-socket: remove stale socket before calling chdir()René Scharfe
unix_stream_listen() is given a path. It calls unix_sockaddr_init(), which in turn can call chdir(). After that a relative path doesn't mean the same as before. Any use of the original path should thus happen before that call. For that reason, unlink the given path (to get rid of a possibly existing stale socket) right at the beginning of the function.

2012-01-11unix-socket: do not let close() or chdir() clobber errno during cleanupJonathan Nieder
unix_stream_connect and unix_stream_listen return -1 on error, with errno set by the failing underlying call to allow the caller to write a useful diagnosis. Unfortunately the error path involves a few system calls itself, such as close(), that can themselves touch errno. This is not as worrisome as it might sound. If close() fails, this just means substituting one meaningful error message for another, which is perfectly fine. However, when the call _succeeds_, it is allowed to (and sometimes might) clobber errno along the way with some undefined value, so it is good higiene to save errno and restore it immediately before returning to the caller. Do so. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-01-10unix-socket: handle long socket pathnamesJeff King
On many systems, the sockaddr_un.sun_path field is quite small. Even on Linux, it is only 108 characters. A user of the credential-cache daemon can easily surpass this, especially if their home directory is in a deep directory tree (since the default location expands ~/.git-credentials). We can hack around this in the unix-socket.[ch] code by doing a chdir() to the enclosing directory, feeding the relative basename to the socket functions, and then restoring the working directory. This introduces several new possible error cases for creating a socket, including an irrecoverable one in the case that we can't restore the working directory. In the case of the credential-cache code, we could perhaps get away with simply chdir()-ing to the socket directory and never coming back. However, I'd rather do it at the lower level for a few reasons: 1. It keeps the hackery behind an opaque interface instead of polluting the main program logic. 2. A hack in credential-cache won't help any unix-socket users who come along later. 3. The chdir trickery isn't that likely to fail (basically it's only a problem if your cwd is missing or goes away while you're running). And because we only enable the hack when we get a too-long name, it can only fail in cases that would have failed under the previous code anyway.

2011-12-11credentials: add "cache" helperJeff King
If you access repositories over smart-http using http authentication, then it can be annoying to have git ask you for your password repeatedly. We cache credentials in memory, of course, but git is composed of many small programs. Having to input your password for each one can be frustrating. This patch introduces a credential helper that will cache passwords in memory for a short period of time. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
