There's a cross-site scripting problem in gitweb, where it will print
URLs generated by its href() helper without further quoting. This allows
an attacker to point a victim to a specially crafted gitweb URL and
inject arbitrary HTML into the resulting page (which the victim sees as
coming from gitweb).
The base of the URL comes from evaluate_uri(), which pulls the value of
$REQUEST_URI via the CGI module. It tries to strip off $PATH_INFO, but
fails to do so in some cases (including ones that contain special
characters, like "+"). Most of the uses of the URL end up being passed
to "$cgi->a(-href = href())", which will get quoted properly by the CGI
module. But in a few places, we output them ourselves as part of
manually-generated HTML, and whatever was in the original URL will
appear unquoted in the output.
Given that all of the nearby variables placed into this manual HTML
_are_ quoted, it seems like the authors assumed that these URLs would
not need quoting. So it's possible that the bug is actually in
evaluate_uri(), which should be doing a more careful job of stripping
$PATH_INFO. There's some discussion in a comment in that function, as
well as the commit message in 81d3fe9f48 (gitweb: fix wrong base URL
when non-root DirectoryIndex, 2009-02-15). But I'm not sure I understand
it.
Regardless, it's a good idea to quote these values at the point of
insertion into the HTML output:
1. Even if there is a bug in evaluate_uri(), this would give us
belt-and-suspenders protection.
2. evaluate_uri() is only handling the base. Some generated URLs will
also mention arbitrary refs or filenames in the repositories, and
these should be quoted anyway.
3. It should never _hurt_ to quote (and that's what all of the
$cgi->a() calls are doing already).
So there may be further work here, but this patch at least prevents the
XSS vulnerability, and shouldn't make anything worse.
The test here covers the calls in print_feed_meta(), but I manually
audited every call to href() to see how its output was used, and quoted
appropriately. Most of them are esc_attr(), as they're used in tag
attributes, but I used esc_html() when the URLs were printed bare. The
distinction is largely academic, as one is implemented as a wrapper for
the other.

Gitweb has several hard-coded 40 values throughout it to check for
values that are passed in or acquired from Git. To simplify the code,
introduce a regex variable that matches either exactly 40 or exactly 64
hex characters, and use this variable anywhere we would have previously
hard-coded a 40 in a regex.
Add some helper functions which allow us to write tighter regexes that
match exactly the number of hex characters we're expecting.
Similarly, switch the code that looks for deleted diffinfo information
to look for either 40 or 64 zeros, and update one piece of code to use
this function. Finally, when formatting a log line, allow an
abbreviated describe output to contain up to 64 characters.

Change the log formatting function to know about "git describe" output
such as "v2.8.0-4-g867ad08", in addition to just plain "867ad08".
There are still many valid refnames that we don't link to
e.g. v2.10.0-rc1~2^2~1 is also a valid way to refer to
v2.8.0-4-g867ad08, but I'm not supporting that with this commit,
similarly it's trivially possible to create some refnames like
"æ/var-gf6727b0" or which won't be picked up by this regex.
There's surely room for improvement here, but I just wanted to address
the very common case of sticking "git describe" output into commit
messages without trying to link to all possible refnames, that's going
to be a rather futile exercise given that this is free text, and it
would be prohibitively expensive to look up whether the references in
question exist in our repository.
There was on-list discussion about how we could do better than this
patch. Junio suggested to update parse_commits() to call a new
"gitweb--helper" command which would pass each of the revision
candidates through "rev-parse --verify --quiet". That would cut down
on our false positives (e.g. we'll link to "deadbeef"), and also allow
us to be more aggressive in selecting candidate revisions.
That may be too expensive to work in practice, or it may
not. Investigating that would be a good follow-up to this patch.

Change the minimum length of an abbreviated object identifier in the
commit message gitweb tries to turn into link from 8 hexchars to 7.
This arbitrary minimum length of 8 was introduced in bfe2191 ("gitweb:
SHA-1 in commit log message links to "object" view", 2006-12-10), but
the default abbreviation length is 7, and has been for a long time.
It's still possible to reference SHA-1s down to 4 characters in length,
see v1.7.4-1-gdce9648's MINIMUM_ABBREV, but I can't see how to make
git actually produce that, so I doubt anyone is putting that into log
messages in practice, but people definitely do put 7 character SHA-1s
into log messages.
I think it's fairly dubious to link to things matching [0-9a-fA-F]
here as opposed to just [0-9a-f], that dates back to the initial
version of gitweb from 161332a ("first working version",
2005-08-07). Git will accept all-caps SHA-1s, but didn't ever produce

The "highlight" binary can, in some cases, determine the language type
by the means of file contents, for example the shebang in the first line
for some scripting languages. Make use of this autodetection for files
which syntax is not known by gitweb. In that case, pass the blob
contents to "highlight --force"; the parameter is needed to make it
always generate HTML output (which includes HTML-escaping).
Although we now run highlight on files which do not end up highlighted,
performance is virtually unaffected because when we call highlight, it
is used for escaping HTML. In the case that highlight is used, gitweb
calls sanitize() instead of esc_html(), and the latter is significantly
slower (it does more, being roughly a superset of sanitize()). Simple
benchmark comparing performance of 'blob' view of files without syntax
highlighting in gitweb before and after this change indicates ±1%
difference in request time for all file types. Benchmark was performed
on local instance on Debian, using Apache/2.4.23 web server and CGI.
Document the feature and improve syntax highlight documentation, add
test to ensure gitweb doesn't crash when language detection is used.

As of CGI.pm's 4.08 release, the behavior to call
CGI::param() in a list context is deprecated (because it can
be potentially unsafe if called inside a hash constructor).
This causes gitweb to issue a warning for some of our code,
which in turn causes the tests to fail.
Our use is in fact _not_ one of the dangerous cases, as we
are intentionally using a list context. The recommended
route by 4.08 is to use the new CGI::multi_param() call to
make it explicit that we know what we are doing.
However, that function is only available in 4.08, which is
about a month old; we cannot rely on having it.
One option would be to set $CGI::LIST_CONTEXT_WARN globally,
which turns off the warning. However, that would eliminate
the protection these newer releases are trying to provide.
We want to annotate each site as OK using the new function.
So instead, let's check whether CGI provides the
multi_param() function, and if not, provide an
implementation that just wraps param(). That will work on
both old and new versions of CGI. Sadly, we cannot just
check defined(\&CGI::multi_param), because CGI uses the
autoload feature, which claims that all functions are
defined. Instead, we just do a version check.

Change the @author_initials feature Jakub added in
v1.6.4-rc2-14-ga36817b to match non-ASCII author initials as intended.
The regexp Jakub added was intended to match
non-ASCII (/\b([[:upper:]])\B/g). But in Perl this doesn't actually
match non-ASCII upper-case characters unless the string being matched
against has the UTF8 flag.
So when we open a pipe to "git blame" we need to mark the file
descriptor we're opening as utf8 explicitly.
So as a result it abbreviates me to "AB" not "ÆAB", entirely because "Æ"
isn't /[[:upper:]]/ unless the string being matched against has the UTF8
flag.
Here's something that demonstrates the issue:
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
binmode STDOUT, ':utf8' if $ENV{UTF8};
open my $fd, "-|", "git", "blame", "--incremental", "--", "Makefile" or die "Can't open: $!";
binmode $fd, ":utf8" if $ENV{UTF8};
while (my $line = <$fd>) {
next unless my ($author) = $line =~ /^author (.*)/;
my @author_initials = ($author =~ /\b([[:upper:]])\B/g);
printf "%s (%s)\n", join("", @author_initials), $author;
}
When that's run with and without UTF8 being true in the environment it
gives, on git.git:
