Subject: [PATCH] security/89: Partially work around CVE-2021-45444 in VCS_Info
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
This patch is a partial, VCS_Info-specific work-around for CVE-2021-45444,
which is mitigated in the shell itself in 5.8.1 and later versions. It is
offered for users who are concerned about an exploit but are unable to update
their binaries to receive the complete fix.
The patch works around the vulnerability by pre-escaping values substituted
into format strings in VCS_Info. Please note that this may break some user
configurations that rely on those values being un-escaped (which is why it was
not included directly in 5.8.1). It may be possible to limit this breakage by
adjusting exactly which ones are pre-escaped, but of course this may leave
them vulnerable again.
If applying the patch to the file system is inconvenient or not possible, the
following script can be used to idempotently patch the relevant function
running in memory (and thus must be re-run when the shell is restarted):
# Impacted versions go from v5.0.3 to v5.8 (v5.8.1 is the first patched version)
autoload -Uz is-at-least
if is-at-least 5.8.1 || ! is-at-least 5.0.3; then
return
fi
# Quote necessary $hook_com[<field>] items just before they are used
# in the line "VCS_INFO_hook 'post-backend'" of the VCS_INFO_formats
# function, where <field> is:
#
# base: the full path of the repository's root directory.
# base-name: the name of the repository's root directory.
# branch: the name of the currently checked out branch.
# revision: an identifier of the currently checked out revision.
# subdir: the path of the current directory relative to the
# repository's root directory.
# misc: a string that may contain anything the vcs_info backend wants.
#
# This patch %-quotes these fields previous to their use in vcs_info hooks and
# the zformat call and, eventually, when they get expanded in the prompt.
# It's important to quote these here, and not later after hooks have modified the
# fields, because then we could be quoting % characters from valid prompt sequences,
# like %F{color}, %B, etc.
#

# 36 + │ hook_com[$tmp]="${hook_com[$tmp]//\%/%%}"
# 37 + │ done

# This is especially important so that no command substitution is performed

# zsh versions from 5.0.3 to 5.8.
