Severity: important
Tags: patch security

Hi,

This patch fixes CVEs of libxml2. The changes to 'runtest.c' in
'libxml2-CVE-2017-9049+CVE-2017-9050.patch are removed since they
introduce test failure. The changes only enable new tests so it should
be fine to remove them.

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix handling of parameter-entity references
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+There were two bugs where parameter-entity references could lead to an
+unexpected change of the input buffer in xmlParseNameComplex and
+xmlDictLookup being called with an invalid pointer.
+
+Percent sign in DTD Names
+=========================
+
+The NEXTL macro used to call xmlParserHandlePEReference. When parsing
+"complex" names inside the DTD, this could result in entity expansion
+which created a new input buffer. The fix is to simply remove the call
+to xmlParserHandlePEReference from the NEXTL macro. This is safe because
+no users of the macro require expansion of parameter entities.
+
+- xmlParseNameComplex
+- xmlParseNCNameComplex
+- xmlParseNmtoken
+
+The percent sign is not allowed in names, which are grammatical tokens.
+
+- xmlParseEntityValue
+
+Parameter-entity references in entity values are expanded but this
+happens in a separate step in this function.
+
+- xmlParseSystemLiteral
+
+Parameter-entity references are ignored in the system literal.
+
+- xmlParseAttValueComplex
+- xmlParseCharDataComplex
+- xmlParseCommentComplex
+- xmlParsePI
+- xmlParseCDSect
+
+Parameter-entity references are ignored outside the DTD.
+
+- xmlLoadEntityContent
+
+This function is only called from xmlStringLenDecodeEntities and
+entities are replaced in a separate step immediately after the function
+call.
+
+This bug could also be triggered with an internal subset and double
+entity expansion.
+
+This fixes bug 766956 initially reported by Wei Lei and independently by
+Chromium's ClusterFuzz, Hanno Böck, and Marco Grassi. Thanks to everyone
+involved.
+
+xmlParseNameComplex with XML_PARSE_OLD10
+========================================
+
+When parsing Names inside an expanded parameter entity with the
+XML_PARSE_OLD10 option, xmlParseNameComplex would call xmlGROW via the
+GROW macro if the input buffer was exhausted. At the end of the
+parameter entity's replacement text, this function would then call
+xmlPopInput which invalidated the input buffer.
+
+There should be no need to invoke GROW in this situation because the
+buffer is grown periodically every XML_PARSER_CHUNK_SIZE characters and,
+at least for UTF-8, in xmlCurrentChar. This also matches the code path
+executed when XML_PARSE_OLD10 is not set.
+
+This fixes bugs 781205 (CVE-2017-9049) and 781361 (CVE-2017-9050).
+Thanks to Marcel Böhme and Thuan Pham for the report.
+
+Additional hardening
+====================
+
+A separate check was added in xmlParseNameComplex to validate the
+buffer size.

Thanks for this!  I think we have to graft this fix since changing

PS: Do you have a Savannah account?  I'm sure Ludo or someone can add

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix handling of parameter-entity references
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+There were two bugs where parameter-entity references could lead to an
+unexpected change of the input buffer in xmlParseNameComplex and
+xmlDictLookup being called with an invalid pointer.
+
+Percent sign in DTD Names
+=========================
+
+The NEXTL macro used to call xmlParserHandlePEReference. When parsing
+"complex" names inside the DTD, this could result in entity expansion
+which created a new input buffer. The fix is to simply remove the call
+to xmlParserHandlePEReference from the NEXTL macro. This is safe because
+no users of the macro require expansion of parameter entities.
+
+- xmlParseNameComplex
+- xmlParseNCNameComplex
+- xmlParseNmtoken
+
+The percent sign is not allowed in names, which are grammatical tokens.
+
+- xmlParseEntityValue
+
+Parameter-entity references in entity values are expanded but this
+happens in a separate step in this function.
+
+- xmlParseSystemLiteral
+
+Parameter-entity references are ignored in the system literal.
+
+- xmlParseAttValueComplex
+- xmlParseCharDataComplex
+- xmlParseCommentComplex
+- xmlParsePI
+- xmlParseCDSect
+
+Parameter-entity references are ignored outside the DTD.
+
+- xmlLoadEntityContent
+
+This function is only called from xmlStringLenDecodeEntities and
+entities are replaced in a separate step immediately after the function
+call.
+
+This bug could also be triggered with an internal subset and double
+entity expansion.
+
+This fixes bug 766956 initially reported by Wei Lei and independently by
+Chromium's ClusterFuzz, Hanno Böck, and Marco Grassi. Thanks to everyone
+involved.
+
+xmlParseNameComplex with XML_PARSE_OLD10
+========================================
+
+When parsing Names inside an expanded parameter entity with the
+XML_PARSE_OLD10 option, xmlParseNameComplex would call xmlGROW via the
+GROW macro if the input buffer was exhausted. At the end of the
+parameter entity's replacement text, this function would then call
+xmlPopInput which invalidated the input buffer.
+
+There should be no need to invoke GROW in this situation because the
+buffer is grown periodically every XML_PARSER_CHUNK_SIZE characters and,
+at least for UTF-8, in xmlCurrentChar. This also matches the code path
+executed when XML_PARSE_OLD10 is not set.
+
+This fixes bugs 781205 (CVE-2017-9049) and 781361 (CVE-2017-9050).
+Thanks to Marcel Böhme and Thuan Pham for the report.
+
+Additional hardening
+====================
+
+A separate check was added in xmlParseNameComplex to validate the
+buffer size.

Previously, I had a Savannah account, but then I deleted it, since I
didn't use it. Now I realize I cannot create a new account with the same
username... I am asking for help from the Savannah admin.

Pushed, thanks!  I added tabs before the line breaks in gnu/local.mk,
but otherwise untouched.

Side note: I think we should start adding patches as origins instead of
copying them wholesale, to try and keep the git repository slim.

We should make a git-minimal package for things like this, or use
guile-git / libgit2. Git itself is a very "heavy" package.

No, I mean adding patches like this:

(define %CVE-1970-0001.patch
  (origin
    (method url-fetch)
    (uri "https://example.com/CVE-2017-0001.patch")
    (sha256
     (base32
      "12c60iwxyc3rj6ih06a1g80vmkf8khvhm44xr9va4h21b74v8f5k"))))

(package
 (...
  (patches (list (search-patch "guix-specific-stuff.patch")
                 %CVE-1970-0001.patch)))

That only requires the built-in guix downloader.

I think we should reduce connections we have to make
and assume that patches could disappear.
I keep patches and sources around in offline and
online ways because of this. If a source should
disappear I could fall back to my storage.

For cases like our icecat the patches are already
fetched because they come directly from the upstream
repository as far as I remember. That's okay.

Actually in cases of cgit, github, gitlab, and maybe
some other git focused web instances we can do what
icecat does or just use URLs like:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/libxml2/snapshot/libxml2-92b9e8c8b3787068565a1820ba575d042f9eec66.tar.xz
I think it's okay to fetch CVE patches like this
because they come directly from upstream commits
and we know the hash of the file.

Ah, that's much better than what I was thinking.

Are you suggesting we should download the patch directly from upstream
or security advisory if they provide it and fall back to copying if they
don't?

I agree, I did that a few times for this reason.

Once I did that for Coreutils, fetching the patch via a Cgit URL at
Savannah, and somehow that URL went broken at some later point, which
was annoying.  But in general, it shouldn’t be worse than source URLs
that go 404.

Yes, indeed; sorry for the crude explanation.  Fetching instead of
copying serves two purposes: saves size in the guix repository, and
removes the need to verify patches manually as you only have to trust
their origin.

I sent an example here: <https://bugs.gnu.org/28330#11>.
