=head1 Name

cvs_acls - Access Control List for CVS

=head1 Synopsis

In 'commitinfo':

  repository/path/to/restrict $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/cvs_acls [-d][-u $USER][-f <logfile>]

where:

  -d  turns on debug information
  -u  passes the client-side userId to the cvs_acls script
  -f  specifies an alternate filename for the restrict_log file

In 'cvsacl':

  {allow.*,deny.*} [|user,user,... [|repos,repos,... [|branch,branch,...]]]

where:

  allow|deny - allow: commits are allowed; deny: prohibited
  user          - userId to be allowed or restricted
  repos         - file or directory to be allowed or restricted
  branch        - branch to be allowed or restricted

See below for examples.

=head1 Description

This script--cvs_acls--is invoked once for each directory within a 
"cvs commit". The set of files being committed for that directory as 
well as the directory itself, are passed to this script.  This script 
checks its 'cvsacl' file to see if any of the files being committed 
are on the 'cvsacl' file's restricted list.  If any of the files are
restricted, then the cvs_acls script passes back an exit code of 1
which disallows the commits for that directory.  

Messages are returned to the committer indicating the file(s) that 
he/she are not allowed to committ.  Additionally, a site-specific 
set of messages (e.g., contact information) can be included in these 
messages.

When a commit is prohibited, log messages are written to a restrict_log
file in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT.  This default file can be redirected to 
another destination.

The script is triggered from the 'commitinfo' file in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/.

=head1 Enhancements

This section lists the bug fixes and enhancements added to cvs_acls
that make up the current cvs_acls.

=head2 Fixed Bugs

This version attempts to get rid the following bugs from the
original version of cvs_acls:

=over 2

=item *
Multiple entries on an 'cvsacl' line will be matched individually, 
instead of requiring that all commit files *exactly* match all 
'cvsacl' entries. Commiting a file not in the 'cvsacl' list would
allow *all* files (including a restricted file) to be committed.

[IMO, this basically made the original script unuseable for our 
situation since any arbitrary combination of committed files could 
avoid matching the 'cvsacl's entries.]

=item *
Handle specific filename restrictions. cvs_acls didn't restrict
individual files specified in 'cvsacl'.

=item *
Correctly handle multiple, specific filename restrictions

=item *
Prohibit mix of dirs and files on a single 'cvsacl' line
[To simplify the logic and because this would be normal usage.]

=item *
Correctly handle a mixture of branch restrictions within one work
directory

=item *
$CVSROOT existence is checked too late

=item *
Correctly handle the CVSROOT=:local:/... option (useful for 
interactive testing)

=item *
Replacing shoddy "$universal_off" logic 
(Thanks to Karl-Konig Konigsson for pointing this out.)

=back

=head2 Enhancements

=over 2

=item *
Checks modules in the 'cvsacl' file for valid files and directories

=item *
Accurately report restricted entries and their matching patterns

=item *
Simplified and commented overly complex PERL REGEXPs for readability 
and maintainability

=item *
Skip the rest of processing if a mismatch on portion of the 'cvsacl' line

=item *
Get rid of opaque "karma" messages in favor of user-friendly messages
that describe which user, file(s) and branch(es) were disallowed.

=item *
Add optional 'restrict_msg' file for additional, site-specific 
restriction messages.

=item *
Take a "-u" parameter for $USER from commit_prep so that the script
can do restrictions based on the client-side userId rather than the
server-side userId (usually 'cvs').

(See discussion below on "Admin Setup" for more on this point.)

=item *
Added a lot more debug trace 

=item *
Tested these restrictions with concurrent use of pserver and SSH
access to model our transition from pserver to ext access.

=item *
Added logging of restricted commit attempts.
Restricted commits can be sent to a default file:
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/restrictlog or to one passed to the script
via the -f command parameter.

=back

=head2 ToDoS 

=over 2

=item *
Need to deal with pserver/SSH transition with conflicting umasks?

=item *
Use a CPAN module to handle command parameters.

=item *
Use a CPAN module to clone data structures.

=back

=head1 Version Information

This is not offered as a fix to the original 'cvs_acls' script since it 
differs substantially in goals and methods from the original and there 
are probably a significant number of people out there that still require 
the original version's functionality.

The 'cvsacl' file flags of 'allow' and 'deny' were intentionally 
changed to 'allow' and 'deny' because there are enough differences 
between the original script's behavior and this one's that we wanted to
make sure that users will rethink their 'cvsacl' file formats before
plugging in this newer script.

Please note that there has been very limited cross-platform testing of 
this script!!! (We did not have the time or resources to do exhaustive
cross-platform testing.)

It was developed and tested under Red Hat Linux 9.0 using PERL 5.8.0.
Additionally, it was built and tested under Red Hat Linux 7.3 using 
PERL 5.6.1.

=head1 Installation

To use this program, do the following four things:

0. Install PERL, version 5.6.1 or 5.8.0.

1. Admin Setup:

   There are two choices here. 

   a) The first option is to use the $ENV{"USER"}, server-side userId
      (from the third column of your pserver 'passwd' file) as the basis for 
      your restrictions.  In this case, you will (at a minimum) want to set
      up a new "cvsadmin" userId and group on the pserver machine.  
      CVS administrators will then set up their 'passwd' file entries to
      run either as "cvs" (for regular users) or as "cvsadmin" (for power 
      users).  Correspondingly, your 'cvsacl' file will only list 'cvs'
      and 'cvsadmin' as the userIds in the second column.

      Commentary: A potential weakness of this is that the xinetd 
      cvspserver process will need to run as 'root' in order to switch 
      between the 'cvs' and the 'cvsadmin' userIds.  Some sysadmins don't
      like situations like this and may want to chroot the process.
      Talk to them about this point...

   b) The second option is to use the client-side userId as the basis for
      your restrictions.  In this case, all the xinetd cvspserver processes 
      can run as userId 'cvs' and no 'root' userId is required.  If you have
      a 'passwd' file that lists 'cvs' as the effective run-time userId for
      all your users, then no changes to this file are needed.  Your 'cvsacl'
      file will use the individual, client-side userIds in its 2nd column.

      As long as the userIds in pserver's 'passwd' file match those userIds 
      that your Linux server know about, this approach is ideal if you are 
      planning to move from pserver to SSH access at some later point in time.
      Just by switching the CVSROOT var from CVSROOT=:pserver:<userId>... to 
      CVSROOT=:ext:<userId>..., users can switch over to SSH access without
      any other administrative changes.  When all users have switched over to
      SSH, the inherently insecure xinetd cvspserver process can be disabled.
      [http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.17/cvs_2.html#SEC32]

      :TODO: The only potential glitch with the SSH approach is the possibility 
      that each user can have differing umasks that might interfere with one 
      another, especially during a transition from pserver to SSH.  As noted
      in the ToDo section, this needs a good strategy and set of tests for that 
      yet...

2. Put two lines, as the *only* non-comment lines, in your commitinfo file:

   ALL $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/commit_prep 
   ALL $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/cvs_acls [-d][-u $USER ][-f <logfilename>]

   where "-d" turns on debug trace
         "-u $USER" passes the client-side userId to cvs_acls 
         "-f <logfilename"> overrides the default filename used to log
                            restricted commit attempts.

   (These are handled in the processArgs() subroutine.)

If you are using client-side userIds to restrict access to your 
repository, make sure that they are in this order since the commit_prep 
script is required in order to pass the $USER parameter.

A final note about the repository matching pattern.  The example above
uses "ALL" but note that this means that the cvs_acls script will run
for each and every commit in your repository.  Obviously, in a large
repository this adds up to a lot of overhead that may not be necesary. 
A better strategy is to use a repository pattern that is more specific 
to the areas that you wish to secure.

3. Install this file as $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/cvs_acls and make it executable.

4. Create a file named CVSROOT/cvsacl and optionally add it to
   CVSROOT/checkoutlist and check it in.  See the CVS manual's
   administrative files section about checkoutlist.  Typically:

   $ cvs checkout CVSROOT
   $ cd CVSROOT
   [ create the cvsacl file, include 'commitinfo' line ]
   [ add cvsacl to checkoutlist ]
   $ cvs add cvsacl
   $ cvs commit -m 'Added cvsacl for use with cvs_acls.' cvsacl checkoutlist

Note: The format of the 'cvsacl' file is described in detail immediately 
below but here is an important set up point:

   Make sure to include a line like the following:

     deny||CVSROOT/commitinfo CVSROOT/cvsacl
     allow|cvsadmin|CVSROOT/commitinfo CVSROOT/cvsacl

   that restricts access to commitinfo and cvsacl since this would be one of
   the easiest "end runs" around this ACL approach. ('commitinfo' has the 
   line that executes the cvs_acls script and, of course, all the 
   restrictions are in 'cvsacl'.)

5. (Optional) Create a 'restrict_msg' file in the $CVSROOT/CVSROOT directory.
   Whenever there is a restricted file or dir message, cvs_acls will look 
   for this file and, if it exists, print its contents as part of the 
   commit-denial message.  This gives you a chance to print any site-specific
   information (e.g., who to call, what procedures to look up,...) whenever
   a commit is denied.

=head1 Format of the cvsacl file

The 'cvsacl' file determines whether you may commit files.  It contains lines
read from top to bottom, keeping track of whether a given user, repository
and branch combination is "allowed" or "denied."  The script will assume 
"allowed" on all repository paths until 'allow' and 'deny' rules change 
that default.  

The normal pattern is to specify an 'deny' rule to turn off
access to ALL users, then follow it with a matching 'allow' rule that will 
turn on access for a select set of users.  In the case of multiple rules for
the same user, repository and branch, the last one takes precedence.

Blank lines and lines with only comments are ignored.  Any other lines not 
beginning with "allow" or "deny" are logged to the restrict_log file.

Lines beginning with "allow" or "deny" are assumed to be '|'-separated
triples: (All spaces and tabs are ignored in a line.)

  {allow.*,deny.*} [|user,user,... [|repos,repos,... [|branch,branch,...]]]

   1. String starting with "allow" or "deny".
   2. Optional, comma-separated list of usernames.
   3. Optional, comma-separated list of repository pathnames.
      These are pathnames relative to $CVSROOT.  They can be directories or
      filenames.  A directory name allows or restricts access to all files and
      directories below it. One line can have either directories or filenames
      but not both.
   4. Optional, comma-separated list of branch tags.
      If not specified, all branches are assumed. Use HEAD to reference the
      main branch.

Example:  (Note: No in-line comments.)

   # ----- Make whole repository unavailable.
   deny

   # ----- Except for user "dgg".
   allow|dgg

   # ----- Except when "fred" or "john" commit to the 
   #       module whose repository is "bin/ls"
   allow|fred, john|bin/ls

   # ----- Except when "ed" commits to the "stable" 
   #       branch of the "bin/ls" repository
   allow|ed|/bin/ls|stable

=head1 Program Logic

CVS passes to @ARGV an absolute directory pathname (the repository
appended to your $CVSROOT variable), followed by a list of filenames
within that directory that are to be committed.

The script walks through the 'cvsacl' file looking for matches on 
the username, repository and branch.

A username match is simply the user's name appearing in the second
column of the cvsacl line in a space-or-comma separate list. If
blank, then any user will match.

A repository match:

=over 2

=item *
Each entry in the modules section of the current 'cvsacl' line is 
examined to see if it is a dir or a file. The line must have 
either files or dirs, but not both. (To simplify the logic.)

=item *
If neither, then assume the 'cvsacl' file was set up in error and
skip that 'allow' line.

=item *
If a dir, then each dir pattern is matched separately against the 
beginning of each of the committed files in @ARGV. 

=item *
If a file, then each file pattern is matched exactly against each
of the files to be committed in @ARGV.

=item *
Repository and branch must BOTH match together. This is to cover
the use case where a user has multiple branches checked out in
a single work directory. Commit files can be from different
branches.

A branch match is either:

=over 4

=item *
When no branches are listed in the fourth column. ("Match any.")

=item *
All elements from the fourth column are matched against each of 
the tag names for $ARGV[1..$#ARGV] found in the %branches file.

=back

=item *
'allow' match remove that match from the tally map.

=item *
Restricted ('deny') matches are saved in the %repository_matches 
table.

=item *
If there is a match on user, repository and branch:

  If repository, branch and user match
    if 'deny'
      add %repository_matches entries to %restricted_entries
    else if 'allow'
      remove %repository_matches entries from %restricted_entries

=item *
At the end of all the 'cvsacl' line checks, check to see if there
are any entries in the %restricted_entries.  If so, then deny the
commit.

=back

=head2 Pseudocode

     read CVS/Entries file and create branch{file}->{branch} hash table
   + for each 'allow' and 'deny' line in the 'cvsacl' file:
   |   user match?   
   |     - Yes: set $user_match       = 1;
   |   repository and branch match?
   |     - Yes: add to %repository_matches;
   |   did user, repository match?
   |     - Yes: if 'deny' then 
   |                add %repository_matches -> %restricted_entries
   |            if 'allow'   then 
   |                remove %repository_matches <- %restricted_entries
   + end for loop
     any saved restrictions?
       no:  exit, 
            set exit code allowing commits and exit
       yes: report restrictions, 
            set exit code prohibiting commits and exit

=head2 Sanity Check

  1) file allow trumps a dir deny
     deny||java/lib
     allow||java/lib/README
  2) dir allow can undo a file deny
     deny||java/lib/README
     allow||java/lib
  3) file deny trumps a dir allow
     allow||java/lib
     deny||java/lib/README
  4) dir deny trumps a file allow
     allow||java/lib/README
     deny||java/lib
  ... so last match always takes precedence
