Implement rsync 3.4.1 client-CLI parity:
- cluster boolean shorts (-av, -aAX, -rlpt) and accept attached values
(-B1048576, -essh, -Mfoo); add the -r, -b, -L and -B short aliases
(-r is a faithful no-op since FastSync is always recursive)
- stop OPT_NOOP (-s/--secluded-args, -r/--recursive) from swallowing the
next argv
- add inline --opt=value for every value-taking long option, including
--exclude/--include/--exclude-from/--include-from/--log-file (#291)
- accept --port on the server CLI in addition to -p (#296)
- reject unknown flags naming the flag and stating it is unsupported
Unit tests cover clustering, attached/inline values, the OPT_NOOP
argument-consumption fix and rejected shorts.
Re-review findings on the C3/C4 hardening branch:
- --stdio is the SSH transport whose remote argv is composed by the client
(including via --remote-option), so accepting --allow-super there let a
client defeat the C3 secure default for a root receiver. Reject it at CLI
parse time (standalone TCP only) and force the process-global flag off for
--stdio as defense in depth. Correct the help text and README/RSYNC_COMPAT:
the --stdio argv is client-composed, super stays off, and a forced command is
needed if the default must hold.
- daemon_conf: the per-module 'hosts allow'/'hosts deny' call sites passed
module_name and replace in the wrong order, so multiple lines replaced
instead of appended and the empty-value error omitted the module name. Pass
(module->name, false) like the global keys; add a unit test for two
per-module allow/deny lines appending.
- tls: read the client CN via ASN1_STRING_to_UTF8 so an exactly-required-length
name is accepted and only actual over-length CNs are rejected.
C2: --force is deletion authority (an incoming regular file may remove a
non-empty destination directory tree, and --delete-missing-args may
remove a non-empty directory mirror), but it was not masked by the
operator --allow-delete policy. The handler now clears
config->force_delete unless --allow-delete was given, exactly like
--delete and --delete-missing-args.
C3: a standalone TCP / --stdio server running as root defaulted to
SUPER_MODE_AUTO, so an untrusted client --devices/--write-devices/
--super could make it create device nodes, write raw devices, or apply
client-chosen ownership. A privileged standalone receiver now forces
SUPER_MODE_OFF unless the operator opts in with the new server-only
--allow-super flag. Non-root receivers are unchanged, and the daemon
path keeps its per-module `client owner = yes` gate. --allow-super is
rejected with --no-super or --daemon.
C6: tls_client_identity_allowed now rejects a CN whose reported length
reached the buffer bound, so a truncated over-long CN cannot be matched
by a required --client-cn prefix.
Tests: an integration regression proving --force cannot replace a
destination directory without --allow-delete; standalone-default tests
for --copy-as refusal and (root-only) skipped device creation; a CLI
unit test for the new flag. The integration shared_server fixture opts
in with --allow-super so the existing root-only ownership/device/copy-as
tests continue to exercise the opted-in configuration. README and
RSYNC_COMPAT document the flag and the force/delete gating.
- tests: pass CREDENTIAL_KEY_LEN to unhex for the 32-byte KAT proof/sig
(sizeof(expect) is 348, over-reading the 65-byte hex literal under ASan)
- credentials: close the username-enumeration oracle with a store-wide
dummy_key and a deterministic per-username dummy salt; make the store's
iteration count uniform (reject intra-file and layered disagreements) and
answer a miss with the store-wide count; run the constant-time key compare
even when found=false and fold the decision with bitwise AND
- credentials_compute_keys: enforce [CREDENTIAL_MIN_ITERS, CREDENTIAL_MAX_ITERS]
- tests: recompute the whole KAT independently at CREDENTIAL_DEFAULT_ITERS
(600000) and pin the golden store line; add non-uniform-store rejection,
bound and deterministic-dummy-salt assertions
- server: send exactly one generic STATUS_AUTH_FAILED on every failure path
(including credentials_get_verifier failure); route all handshake exits
through one burn path
- credentials/server: burn the base64 decoders' scratch on error, the
hash_store_line base64/line buffers on failure, and all handshake key/proof
material
- fuzz: guard the auth-offset scan against size_t underflow and use a found flag
- docs: drop stale digest wording, use CREDENTIAL_MIN_ITERS as the --iterations
bound, document 0600 output for --hash-credentials (plus a stderr warning on
a group/other-accessible stdout file), and describe the deterministic dummy
salt in the no-oracle claims
- server_cli: handle --password-file/--early-input/--iconv via arg_has_value
in one place, removing the unreachable duplicate separate-form arms while
keeping both --opt VALUE and --opt=VALUE working
- client_cli: factor the triplicated --delta-block/--block-size range check
into set_delta_block_size(); drop the redundant use_metadata assignment
after identity_parse_copy_as (the parser already forces it)
- tests: cover both spellings of --iconv/--delta-block, make the archive
short-form test actually call parse_args, add delta-block invalid cases
