Losing tab complete and text macros, for now.
This new implementation works on an instance of a struct and does
not interact with the rest of catgirl, making it possible to copy
into another project. Unlike existing line editing libraries, this
one is entirely abstract and can be rendered externally.
My goal with this library is to be able to implement vi mode. Since
it operates on struct instances rather than globals, it might also
be possible to give catgirl separate line editing buffers for each
window, which would be a nice UX improvement.
caph_enter(3) is the same as cap_enter(2) except that it returns
success even if the kernel does not support capability mode. Since
we only enter capability mode when explicitly requested by the
restrict option, it should fail loudly if it is not supported. On
the other hand, we make calls to caph_rights_limit(3) and friends
in some places regardless of whether we actually enter capability
mode (to keep the code simple), so those should continue to succeed
even if capability mode is not supported.
Silencing all windows with `M-+' (across multiple catgirl instances)
can be cumbersome, so provide an option to hide events, JOIN/PART noise,
etc. by default (each window's threshold will persist across load/save
cycles, i.e. when using the `-s/save' option).
Started out as `-v | visibility = threshold' to set a specific level,
the idea of a simpler toggle comes from june, who also squashed other
bugs (as usual).
ircConnect() yields a connected TCP socket after which "inet dns" is
no longer needed.
Possibly having loaded private key material, it seems a tad more
comforting to speak TLS *after* dropping any network capabilities
(except for socket read/write to the IRC host, of course).
Instead of moving the final pledge into irc.c:ircConnect() and thus
complicating the code around pledge across two C modules, simply
stub out an mnemonic ircHandshake() and call that explicitly.
This restores behaviour gained with
981ebc4 "Remove explicit tls_handshake(3) from ircConnect" which
was reverted for other reasons.
caph_stream_rights(3) doesn't exist before FreeBSD 13.0 and there's
no good reason to create that dependency. I still run servers on
FreeBSD 12.
This is a partial revert of cbc9545cb3.
No point in trying to load a self-signed server certificate which we
are about to get from the server in the first place.
No need to read client certificate/key files when all we want is the
server certificate: in TLS the server always sends its certificate
before the client replies with any key material, i.e. catgirl sending
client data is useless.
catgirl(1) synopsis also notes how these options are irrelevant in the
-o/printCert case.
As a result, ircConfig() no longer requires any filesystem I/O in this
case, so hoist the purely network I/O related pledge() call to enforce
this -- more secure, self-documenting code!
This reads somewhat clearer as code is grouped by features instead of
security mechanisms by simply merging identical tests/conditions.
No functional change.
Simplify logic and decouple the two features such that the code gets
even more self-ducumenting.
Previously `catgirl -R -l' would never unveil and therefore "proc exec"
could execute arbitrary paths without "rpath" as is usual unveil/pledge
semantic.
Now that `catgirl -l' alone triggers unveil(2), previous "proc exec"
alone is not enough since the first unveil() hides everything else from
filesystem; unveil all of root executable-only in order to restore
non-restrict mode's visibility.
This leaves yields distinct cases wrt. filesystem visibility
(hoisted save file functionality excluded):
1. restrict on, log off: no access
2. restrict on, log on : logdir write/create
3. restrict off, log off: all exec-only
4. restrict off, log on : logdir write/create, all else exec-only
In the first case `unveil("/", "")' could be used but with no benefit as
the later lack of "rpath wpath cpath", i.e. filesystem access is revoked
entirely by pledge alone already.
Practically, this does not change functionality but improves correctness
and readability.
Otherwise resizing the terminal will end catgirl until a handler is
registered, e.g. while in ircConnect():
catgirl: tls_handshake: (null)
Hoist registration right after uiInitEarly() as earliest possible point
in main() since initscr(3) sets up various signals incl. SIGWINCH, i.e.
initialise `cursesWinch' afterwards to pick up curses(3)'s handler.
Every time we receive from the server, reset a timer. The first
time the timer triggers, send a PING. The second time the timer
triggers, die from ping timeout.
I'm not sure about these two intervals: 2 minutes of idle before a
PING, 30s for the server to respond to the PING.
Just truncate the initial promises back to the final ones after pledging
for the first time, saving code and memory.
Assign `ptr' in all initial `seprintf()' calls for consistency while
here.
No need to wait for so long.
This also brings all the pledge code on one screen and helps show how
ircConnect() is the only relevant part in between initial and final
promises.
`-T[format]' is not possible with getopt(3) but getopt_long(3) supports
"T::" exactly for that, so make the command line option go in line with
configuration files and documentation.
While here, check `has_arg' explicitly as getopt_long(3) only documents
mnemonic values not numerical ones.
All opening happens before unveil/pledge and the file handle is kept
open read/write so it can be used without any pledge.
Simpler/less code and less chances to write other files (accidentially).
Opening the same file *path* twice is a TOCTOU, although not a critical
one: worst case we load from one file and save to another - the impact
depends on how and when catgirl is started the next anyway.
More importantly, keeping the file handle open at runtime allows us to
drop all filesystem related promises for `-s/save' on OpenBSD.
uiLoad() now opens "r+", meaning "Open for reading and writing." up
front so uiSave() can write to it. In the case of a nonexistent save
file, it now opens with "w" meaning "Open for writing. The file is
created if it does not exist.", i.e. the same write/create semantics as
"w" except uiLoad() no longer truncates. existing files.
uiSave() now truncates the save file to avoid appending in general.
After TLS cert/key files, the save file is the only file being read from;
do so before pleding and drop the "rpath" promise all together: log files
will only be created and written to.
Both ssl(8) as well as ncurses(3) related files are now read completely
by the time of ircConfig() and uiInitEarly() respectively, so read
access to the filesystem is no longer needed at all unless the "log" or
"save" options are used.
Previous tls_default_ca_cert_file(3) hoisting makes this possible: all
TLS related files are fully loaded into memory by ircConfig() such that
ircConnect() will not do any file I/O.
Call ircConfig() before pledge(2) in the `-o' "print cert" case so this
works out -- that order should have been preserved in the previous
a989e15 "OpenBSD: hoist -o/printCert code to simplify" but fixing it now
nicely demonstrates the achivement even more so.
catgirl needs:
- "stdio tty" at all times
- "rpath inet dns" once at startup for terminfo(5) and ssl(8)
- "proc exec" iff -R/restrict options is disabled
- "rpath wpath cpath" iff -s/save or -l/log options is enabled
Status quo: catgirl starts with the superset of all possible promises
"stdio rpath wpath cpath inet dns tty proc exec", drops offline with
"stdio rpath wpath cpath tty proc exec" and possibly drops to either of
"stdio rpath wpath cpath tty", "stdio tty proc exec" or "stdio tty"
depending on the options used.
Such step-by-step reduction is straight forward and easy to model along
the process runtime, but it comes with the drawback of starting with
too broad promises right from the beginning, i.e. `catgirl -R -h host'
is able to execute code and write to filesystems even though it must
never do so according the (un)used options.
Lay out required promises up front and pledge in two stages:
1. initial setup, i.e. fixed "stdio tty" plus temporary "rpath inet dns"
plus potential "rpath wpath cpath" plus potential "proc exec"
2. final rutime, i.e. fixed "stdio tty"
plus potential "rpath wpath cpath" plus potential "proc exec"
This way the above mentioned usage example can never execute or write
files, hence less potential for bugs and more accurate modelling of
catgirl's runtime -- dropping "inet dns" alone in between also becomes
obsolete with this approach.
initscr(3) in uiInitEarly() attempts more than /usr/share/terminfo/, see
`mandoc -O tag=TERMINFO ncurses`.
Even though non-default terminfo handling seems rare and it is unlikely
to have ever caused a problem for catgirl users on OpenBSD, the current
is still wrong by oversimplifying it.
Avoid the entire curses/unveil clash by setting up the screen before
unveiling.
Nothing but the TLS handshake is required, so skip all other setup.
On OpenBSD, unveil() handling needs fixing which will involve code
reshuffling -- this is the first related but standalone step.
Also pledge this one-off code path individually such with simpler and
tighter promises while here.
The (not perfectly obvious) way catgirl crafts directories gets triggered
by unveilAll() even if no passed option requires filesystem access:
$ env -i TERM=xterm ./catgirl -h irc.hackint.eu -R -n nobody
catgirl: HOME unset
Here unveil(2) is used due to the "restrict" option, but besides terminfo(5)
and certificates catgirl does not need any other files, yet it tries to init
the data path -- passing XDG_DATA_HOME=/var/empty makes above invocation work
showing how the then successful path setup is not required.
Fix this by not unveiling the unneeded data path in the first place.
Log files and state save/restore both require read/write access to
the filesystem, both during start and exit.
If neither features are used, catgirl may run with "stdio tty".
