44+Subject: [PATCH] security/89: Partially work around CVE-2021-45444 in VCS_Info
45+MIME-Version: 1.0
46+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
47+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
48+
49+This patch is a partial, VCS_Info-specific work-around for CVE-2021-45444,
50+which is mitigated in the shell itself in 5.8.1 and later versions. It is
51+offered for users who are concerned about an exploit but are unable to update
52+their binaries to receive the complete fix.
53+
54+The patch works around the vulnerability by pre-escaping values substituted
55+into format strings in VCS_Info. Please note that this may break some user
56+configurations that rely on those values being un-escaped (which is why it was
57+not included directly in 5.8.1). It may be possible to limit this breakage by
58+adjusting exactly which ones are pre-escaped, but of course this may leave
59+them vulnerable again.
60+
61+If applying the patch to the file system is inconvenient or not possible, the
62+following script can be used to idempotently patch the relevant function
63+running in memory (and thus must be re-run when the shell is restarted):
64+
65+
66+# Impacted versions go from v5.0.3 to v5.8 (v5.8.1 is the first patched version)
67+autoload -Uz is-at-least
68+if is-at-least 5.8.1 || ! is-at-least 5.0.3; then
69+ return
70+fi
71+
72+# Quote necessary $hook_com[<field>] items just before they are used
73+# in the line "VCS_INFO_hook 'post-backend'" of the VCS_INFO_formats
74+# function, where <field> is:
75+#
76+# base: the full path of the repository's root directory.
77+# base-name: the name of the repository's root directory.
78+# branch: the name of the currently checked out branch.
79+# revision: an identifier of the currently checked out revision.
80+# subdir: the path of the current directory relative to the
81+# repository's root directory.
82+# misc: a string that may contain anything the vcs_info backend wants.
83+#
84+# This patch %-quotes these fields previous to their use in vcs_info hooks and
85+# the zformat call and, eventually, when they get expanded in the prompt.
86+# It's important to quote these here, and not later after hooks have modified the
87+# fields, because then we could be quoting % characters from valid prompt sequences,
88+# like %F{color}, %B, etc.
89+#
90+# 32 hook_com[subdir]="$(VCS_INFO_reposub ${hook_com[base]})"
91+# 33 hook_com[subdir_orig]="${hook_com[subdir]}"
92+# 34
93+# 35 + for tmp in base base-name branch misc revision subdir; do
94+# 36 + hook_com[$tmp]="${hook_com[$tmp]//\%/%%}"
95+# 37 + done
96+# 38 +
97+# 39 VCS_INFO_hook 'post-backend'
98+#
99+# This is especially important so that no command substitution is performed
100+# due to malicious input as a consequence of CVE-2021-45444, which affects
101+# zsh versions from 5.0.3 to 5.8.
102+#
