[#617] SCM: impossible to make public repos created as private

Description

Detailed description

Ever since that major security fix, we have the problem that plugins/scmsvn/common/SVNPlugin.class.php has…

                            if ($project->enableAnonSCM()) {
                                    system ("chmod -R g+wX,o+rX-w $repo") ;
                            } else {
                                    system ("chmod -R g+wX,o-rwx $repo") ;
                            }

… only in the “create” case, and that later changes only do:

                    if ($project->enableAnonSCM()) {
                            system ("chmod g+wX,o+rX-w $repo") ;
                    } else {
                            system ("chmod g+wX,o-rwx $repo") ;
                    }

That is, without the -R.

I move that the chmod inside the 「if (!isdir ($repo) || !isfile ("$repo/format"))」 block be changed to always enable o+rX-w, and only the top-level directory shall be used to switch repos between public and private. We will, of course, need appropriate update code in a postinst to convert already-done repositories.

I noticed this in scmsvn and have not looked at the other scm* plugins for whether they exhibit this problem too.

The migration script for 6.0 reset permissions, and 6.0 will only modify the top-level directory. Fixed :)

I unset target release since this bug is not yet fixed.

Indeed, but this does not apply any more. Basically, what you wanted for speedup has already been applied because of security.

I wanted to have this tracked so we can all think about how to best fix this without impeding security again. I’ve attached a patch as basis for discussion.
