fix(tools): refuse to run git under untrusted workspace repo config#5672rsd-darshan wants to merge 5 commits into
Conversation
git_operations' run_git_command_in spawned git with no config hardening, so a .git/config the agent itself wrote (via file_write, add, commit, checkout) could set core.fsmonitor, core.sshCommand, core.pager, diff.external, credential.helper, or a filter/textconv driver, and have git execute it on the next status/log/diff/commit/etc. Mirrors the allowlist-based hardening already applied to read_workspace_state's run_git: refuse to run when the repository's local config sets anything outside a known-inert allowlist, neutralise the known command-valued keys with -c as defence in depth, and close the system/global config files and command-valued env vars.

Two points.
plant_fsmonitor_hookhas no#[cfg(unix)]attribute, but its only caller,repository_config_naming_a_command_does_not_get_to_run_it, does. On Windows the function is therefore unused and produces adead_codewarning.Line 486 builds the hook script with
{:?}. That applies RustDebugescaping, not shell quoting. For aTempDirpath the two agree, so the script works today. If the path ever contains a character that the two escape differently, the script breaks,touchnever runs, and the marker is absent. The assertion at line 535 then passes for the wrong reason.

…unreadable repo config Two issues from review of the git_operations hardening: - core.worktree redirects the working-tree root every write operation here (checkout/add/commit/stash) targets, so leaving it allowlisted meant a repository config could point writes outside action_dir entirely. Nothing this tool does needs the key; worktree isolation already goes through WorkspaceDescriptor. - first_disallowed_repo_config_key (renamed from repo_config_is_inert) treated a failed `git config --list --local` the same as "nothing to distrust" and ran the real command anyway. By the time it runs, the caller has already confirmed dir is a repo, so a non-zero exit means the config could not be read, not that there is none - now refused. Also hardens the test helpers against ambient system/global git config, gates the fsmonitor-hook helper to unix (its only caller already was), verifies the hook actually runs before relying on its absence, and adds regression tests for both fixes above plus two normalise_config_key edge cases.

first_disallowed_repo_config_key only ever read `git config --list --local`. extensions.worktreeConfig is itself allowlisted as an ordinary setting, but turning it on makes git additionally read config.worktree, a second file --local does not cover. core.hooksPath set there via `git config --worktree` was therefore invisible to the check entirely, and would still run on the next commit. Verified directly: planting core.hooksPath with --worktree and then listing with --local omits it; a bare `git config --list --null` (system/global suppressed the same way as before, just not through the --local flag) reports it, because that's the same merged view git itself consults when running the real command. Splits the env suppression out of hardened_git into its own function so the inspection step can use it without hardened_git's -c layer, which would otherwise inject NEUTRALISED_CONFIG's own keys into the very listing being checked against the allowlist.

Addressed in f438344 — the Critical finding on the worktree-scoped bypass. Confirmed it directly before fixing: with `extensions.worktreeConfig` on (itself allowlisted, since it's an ordinary non-command-valued setting), `git config --worktree core.hooksPath ...` writes to `config.worktree`, a file `--local` never reads. `first_disallowed_repo_config_key` only ever inspected `--local`, so that hookspath was invisible to the check and would still fire on the next `commit`. Switched the inspection to a bare `git config --list --null` — same merged local+worktree view git itself consults — with system/global suppressed via env instead of the `--local` flag. That meant splitting the env-suppression out of `hardened_git` into its own function, since running the inspection through `hardened_git` itself would inject its own `-c` overrides (`core.fsmonitor=`, etc.) into the very listing being checked, and every invocation would refuse itself. Added a regression test that plants `core.hooksPath` via `--worktree` exactly as the finding described, and confirms it's now caught. 40/40 tests pass, fmt/clippy clean. |

… time Two findings from review: - TOCTOU between the config inspection and the real git invocation: they are separate processes, so a core.hooksPath set in the gap (a second concurrent writer, or a worktree-scoped write) would be invisible to the inspection but still reach the real command, and commit/checkout both run hooks. core.hooksPath is now neutralised with -c at the point hardened_git actually runs, independent of what the inspection saw. Verified there is in fact a portable "nowhere" value for it (the same null path already used for GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL) - a previous comment claiming otherwise was wrong. - commit.gpgsign is on the allowlist as an ordinary boolean, but left un-neutralised a repository could force every commit through this tool to be signed with whatever key the host has configured, without the operator asking for that. Overridden the same way core.editor already is. Both are added as explicit -c args in hardened_git rather than the static NEUTRALISED_CONFIG list, since hooksPath's safe value is platform-dependent (reuses NULL_CONFIG_PATH). Adds two tests that call hardened_git directly, skipping the allowlist inspection entirely, to prove the execution-time override holds on its own rather than depending on the inspection having caught anything.

output.status.success() alone doesn't prove commit.gpgsign=true was skipped - a repository that also configures a working gpg.program would make a signed commit succeed too. Plants a fake gpg.program that always signs successfully, then inspects the commit object itself via git cat-file -p and asserts no gpgsig header, which is the only check that actually distinguishes "signing was skipped" from "signing was attempted and happened to work".

Addressed in 88f3ff5. Fair catch: `output.status.success()` alone doesn't prove signing was skipped — a repository that also sets a working `gpg.program` would make a signed commit succeed too, so that assertion couldn't actually distinguish "skipped" from "attempted and happened to work". `hardened_git_neutralises_forced_commit_signing` now plants a fake `gpg.program` that always signs successfully, then inspects the commit object via `git cat-file -p HEAD` and asserts there's no `gpgsig` header — which is the only check that actually pins down the behavior in question. 42/42 tests pass, fmt/clippy clean. |

git_operations'srun_git_command_inspawnedgitwith no config hardening at all, so a.git/configwritten into the agent's own workspace decided whatgitexecuted on the nextstatus/log/diff/commit/add/checkout/stash.read_workspace_statein fix(tools): refuse to run git under untrusted workspace repo config #5493: refuse to run when the repository's local config sets anything outside a known-inert allowlist, neutralise the known command-valued keys with-cas defence in depth, and close the system/global config files plus command-valued env vars.core.fsmonitor), an ordinary repository, an LFS clone,credential.helper, and a write operation (commit).Problem
run_git_command_inis the single function backing every operation this tool exposes:cwdis the agent's own workspace — the same directoryfile_writewrites into, and several git config keys name a command that git then executes:core.fsmonitor(run bygit status),core.sshCommand,core.pager,core.editor,diff.external,credential.helper, and thefilter.*.process/*.clean/*.smudgefamily. An agent that writes a.git/configinto its workspace controls what git runs the next time this tool touches that repo — onstatus, which every one of the eight operations reaches through this one function.This is the sibling issue #5493 flagged and deliberately left alone:
read_workspace_state's ownrun_githad the identical shape and was hardened there, butgit_operations'run_git_command_inwas called out explicitly as unfixed, to keep that PR reviewable. Issue #5494 tracks finishing it here.Solution
ALLOWED_REPO_CONFIG: an allowlist of the config keysgit init/git clonewrite plus the handful of inert settings an ordinary repository carries (core.autocrlf,gc.auto, etc.).
