[REGRESSION] uninitialized value $address in git send-email

[REGRESSION] uninitialized value $address in git send-email

[Bagas Sanjaya]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2037 bytes --]

Hi,

Recently when I was submitting doc fixes to linux-doc mailing list [1]
using git-send-email(1), I got perl-related error:

```
Use of uninitialized value $address in sprintf at /home/bagas/.app/git/dist/v2.42.0/libexec/git-core/git-send-email line 1172.
error: unable to extract a valid address from:
```

My linux.git clone has sendemail-validate hook which uses patatt (from b4
package). The hook is:

```
#!/bin/sh
# installed by patatt install-hook
patatt sign --hook "${1}"
```

This issue occurs on Git v2.41.0 but not in v2.40.0. Bisecting, the culprit is
commit a8022c5f7b67 (send-email: expose header information to git-send-email's
sendemail-validate hook, 2023-04-19). Emily's earlier report [2] also points to
the same culprit, but with different bug.

I triggered this issue on patch series with cover letter. To reproduce:

1. Clone git.git repo, then branch off:

   ```
   $ git clone https://github.com/git/git.git && cd git
   $ git checkout -b test
   ```

2. Make two dummy signed-off commits:

   ```
   $ echo test > test && git add test && git commit -s -m "test"
   $ echo "test test" >> test && git commit -a -s -m "test test"
   ```

3. Generate patch series:

   ```
   $ mkdir /tmp/test
   $ git format-patch -o /tmp/test --cover-letter main
   ```

4. Send the series to dummy address:

   ```
   $ git send-email --to="pi <pi@pi>" /tmp/test/*.patch
   ```

git-send-email(1) trips on the cover letter since there is no recipient
addresses detected. It also errored out on patches without Signed-off-by
trailer. When the command should have been succeeded, I expected that it
asked me whether to send each patch or not.

My system runs Debian testing (trixie/sid) with perl 5.36.0.

Thanks.

[PATCH] git-send-email.perl: avoid printing undef when validating addresses

[Taylor Blau]

When validating email addresses with `extract_valid_address_or_die()`,
we print out a helpful error message when the given input does not
contain a valid email address.

However, the pre-image of this patch looks something like:

    my $address = shift;
    $address = extract_valid_address($address):
    die sprintf(__("..."), $address) if !$address;

which fails when given a bogus email address by trying to use $address
(which is undef) in a sprintf() expansion, like so:

    $ git.compile send-email --to="pi <pi@pi>" /tmp/x/*.patch --force
    Use of uninitialized value $address in sprintf at /home/ttaylorr/src/git/git-send-email line 1175.
    error: unable to extract a valid address from:

This regression dates back to e431225569 (git-send-email: remove invalid
addresses earlier, 2012-11-22), but became more noticeable in a8022c5f7b
(send-email: expose header information to git-send-email's
sendemail-validate hook, 2023-04-19), which validates SMTP headers in
the sendemail-validate hook.

Avoid trying to format an undef by storing the given and cleaned address
separately. After applying this fix, the error contains the invalid
email address, and the warning disappears:

    $ git.compile send-email --to="pi <pi@pi>" /tmp/x/*.patch --force
    error: unable to extract a valid address from: pi <pi@pi>

This will still use undef if the incoming $address is already undef,
but the caller deserves what it gets in such a case.  The message
reports that the %s is the source from which the code tried to
extract the address from, not the result of failed extraction, so
the rewrite is absolutely the right thing to do.

Will queue.  Thanks.

Yeah, we overwrite the variable we're reporting on, so I don't think the
original could possibly work. Your fix makes sense.

I didn't quite understand how a8022c5f7b made this worse, but I guess we
just call it the bad function in more instances. The bug is definitely
from e431225569, though.

I tried to repro this today on my side.  I can repro the error when
using the address "pi <pi@pi>" but that's not a valid email address and
so one would expect it to fail in the extract_valid_address_or_die
function with the error that you mention.  As soon as I make the address
valid like "pi <pi@pi.com>", git send-email no longer complains.

In your original case, are you trying to send email to an invalid email
address?  Is it an alias by chance?

Thanks.

I triggered this regression when I passed multiple addresses separated by comma
(like `--to="foo <foo@acme.com>,bar <bar@acme.com>"`, but somehow I managed to
reduce the trigger to one address only (in this case, "pi <pi@pi.com>"). As for
multiple addresses part, let me know if I should post another regression
report.

Hm.  I'm not sure what to say.  I have used the below docker container
as a test environment and don't seem to find issues with 'git send-email
--to="pi <pi@pi.com>" /email/test/*.patch' nor with 'git send-email
--to="foo <foo@acme.com>,bar <bar@acme.com>" /email/test/*.patch'.

Maybe if you could try the following test environment too and see if you
can reproduce it inside the docker container:

NOTE: I assume you install docker on your system

Step 1) Create folder with the below files inside

Dockerfile:

...

FROM debian:trixie

RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get install -y git git-email vim

WORKDIR /

RUN git clone https://github.com/git/git.git && \
    cd git && \
    git checkout -b test

#COPY git-send-email /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email

RUN git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
RUN git config --global user.name "Your Name"

#specific error case
RUN cd git && echo '#!/bin/sh \n\
patatt sign --hook "${1}"' > .git/hooks/sendemail-validate

RUN cd git && echo test > test && git add test && git commit -s -m "test"
RUN cd git && echo "test test" >> test && git commit -a -s -m "test test"
RUN mkdir -p /email/test
RUN cd git && git format-patch -o /email/test --cover-letter master
RUN sed -i 's/\*\*\* SUBJECT HERE \*\*\*/test/'
/email/test/0000-cover-letter.patch

...


run.sh:

...

#!/bin/sh

sudo docker stop git-send-email-debug
sudo docker rm git-send-email-debug

sudo docker build -t git-send-email-debug:latest .

sudo docker run -it --name git-send-email-debug git-send-email-debug:latest

...


Step 2) Make run.sh executable and start run.sh to create docker
container shell.  Inside the container's shell (will pop up
automatically) please try this:

git send-email --to="foo <foo@acme.com>,bar <bar@acme.com>"
/email/test/*.patch


Please let me know the results of the test case above and any other
things you try that have interesting results.


Thank you!

Whoops, somehow I missed the other responses on this thread until I
looked on the web archive version of this mailing list.  I see that a
solution to "Use of uninitialized value $address" has already been proposed.

I suppose I may have mistook what issue was being reported.  I had
originally understood the problem to be that hook related logic was
failing with correct email addresses, but it seems rather that we are
trying to fix an error that occurs when an email address that fails
extract_valid_address_or_die() is given.  Feel free to ignore my last
email if that is all we are trying to solve.

Originally, I was intended to report regression on handling multiple
addresses passed in a single --to/--cc/--bcc option. Previously on Git v2.40,
git-send-email(1) accepts `--to="foo <foo@foo.com>,bar <bar@bar.com>"
as two separate --to addresses (with comma as separator). However, on
v2.41 and up, instead I got perl error as I reported in this thread.
Interestingly, that perl error can be reduced into one invalid addresses.
The same thing also happens to --cc and --bcc. I used aforementioned
trick when I was sending patches to LKML to save frin typing the same
option multiple times, each with different address.

If I need to send separate regression report for above use case,
please let me know.

I'm probably not the best person to answer whether you should file
another report.  Junio would know better the processes of this mailing list.

However, I believe that if you are just trying to have the
"uninitialized value $address" error disappear then the above patch by
Taylor Blau should work great.  Feel free to try it by editing your
local copy of git-send-email usually found here:
/usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email

You refer to v2.40 and v2.41 in the message I am responding to, but
do you have a bisection?  There seem to have been five topics around
send-email during that timeperiod.

I'll make one on the separate report.

Alright.  The next task from your end may be to see if you can
bisect to find which topic broke your expectation.

Thanks.

I just had an impression that the original was complaining about the
command failing, and the patches addressed a side issue that the
error message that is given when the command fails uses an undefined
value.  The report was not quite clear what Bagas considerd a
regression (e.g. did the command allow an invalid address like <pi@pi>
but now it complains?), though.
