In some OS configurations, unprivileged users cannot read back messages
that they have written to the system log. This test cannot succeed if that
happens, so skip it.
In particular, if the Journal is only in-memory rather than persisted
to disk (as it was by default in Debian 10), then there are no per-user
Journal files, only a single system-wide Journal which requires privileges
to read.

Fixes: 8b05f6b3 "Add a unit test for the history command"
(cherry picked from commit 0deb80efa8)
All the details of the bug are in:
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/2549https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/3479
This patch works around it by marking the commit we're about to pull
partial, so that if the .commit object exists in a staging directory
from a previous failed pull, it will not be erroneously considered a
complete commit, even by affected versions of libostree that don't have
the above patch. If for some reason the commit in the staging dir is
complete, libostree should harmlessly verify that and pull it in.
Usually the commit we are pulling does not already exist in the local
repo, but add a check anyway so we don't risk marking a complete commit
as partial, and so this works on the code path from
"flatpak install --reinstall ..."
Fixes#3479
(cherry picked from commit 11158c2481)
Due to previous bugs we were leaving a lot of temp files around
in the appstream deploy dirs, which could add up to using a lot of
space. So, lets find and delete these on updates.
This check only happens on a successful update to a new appstream,
which isn't that often, so the cost of this check is unlikely to be a
problem.
(cherry picked from commit d4a9f3ba23)
If during appstream deploy there is an error, the temporary files were
not deleted, resulting in leaked files in /var/lib/flatpak/appstream.
Over time these could add up to a significant size. In particular this
happes if several deploys happen in parallel, because then the final
move into place will fail with EEXIST.
This fixes the cleanup of both the temporary directory and the temporary
link on any error.

Trying to run sandboxed GStreamer applications from within jhbuild, for
example, would make those applications fail to find their plugins.

Don't propagate those GStreamer environment variables to within the
sandbox to avoid that problem.

The history test fails sometimes in the CI due to the remote add
operation being missing from the history command's output:
+ diff history-log -
0a1
> add remote system (history-installation) test-repo
Presumably this is due to that operation happening in the same second
that is passed to --since, so move the sleep statement to make sure a
second passes before we do anything.
There's no need to use polkit in the history command, so don't start the
agent in flatpak-main.c. This means we can avoid a test failure in
test-history.sh which was caused by old versions of valgrind being
unaware of syscall sched_getattr, which is used in g_bus_get_sync(),
itself called by install_polkit_agent().
(cherry picked from commit dd9fe19066)
Currently we include entries in the output of the history command for
pulls of appstream refs, e.g. "appstream2/x86_64". However since they
don't have an application ID the Application column shows up blank and
it seems like a pull of nothing which is confusing. These are basically
an implementation detail like the temp repo pulls we already exclude, so
I think it makes sense to exclude them from the output.
It would also make sense to exclude pulls of ostree-metadata refs, but
for some reason I don't see those in practice, even with a collection ID
set on the remote.
(cherry picked from commit fbad9641b7)
The history command seems to have been broken since it was changed to
use FlatpakDecomposed, since that type only works for app or runtime
refs, resulting in errors such as:
$ flatpak history
error: appstream2/x86_64 is not application or runtime
Fix this by making the logic a bit smarter, and don't let any one
invalid ref entry prevent the whole command from working.
Fixes#4332
(cherry picked from commit e44b54856e)
This reintroduces the special case that existed in Flatpak 1.12.3, but
under a different name, so that it will be backwards-compatible. With
this change, flatpak-builder will be able to resolve CVE-2022-21682 by
using --filesystem=host:reset.
We want to implement this as a suffix rather than as a new keyword,
because unknown suffixes are ignored with a warning, rather than causing
a fatal error. This means that the new version of flatpak-builder will
be able to run against older versions of flatpak: it will still be
vulnerable to CVE-2022-21682 in that situation, but at least it will run.

(cherry picked from commit 5709f1aaed)
There are two reasonable interpretations for --nofilesystem=home:
either it revokes a previous --filesystem=home (as in Flatpak 1.12.2 and
older versions), or it completely forbids access to the home directory
(as in Flatpak 1.12.3). Clarify the man pages to indicate that it only
revokes a previous --filesystem=home. This will hopefully reduce
mismatches between the design and what users expect to happen, as
in flatpak#4654.
A subsequent commit will introduce a way to get the Flatpak 1.12.3
behaviour in a way that is more backwards-compatible with Flatpak 1.12.2
and older versions.

(cherry picked from commit 7bbeed2b87)
This caused regressions for some previously-working use cases. For
example, some Flatpak users previously used a global
`flatpak override --nofilesystem=home` or
`flatpak override --nofilesystem=host`, but expected that individual apps
would still be able to have finer-grained filesystem access granted by the
app manifest, such as Zoom's `--filesystem=~/Documents/Zoom:create`. With
the changes in 1.12.3, this no longer has the desired result, because
`--nofilesystem=home` was special-cased to disallow inheriting the
finer-grained `--filesystem`.
This reverts commit 445bddeee6.
This reverts the initial solution to CVE-2022-21682, which we intend to
resolve differently, by introducing a new feature in Flatpak and making
use of it in a new flatpak-builder version.

We weren't distinguishing here between overrides that should have been

(cherry picked from commit 4e3d1d8b7b)
Previously --nofilesystem=host only removed specifically access to the
`host` permissions, and not necessarily other filesystems (like `home`
or `/some/path`). This isn't very useful to limit access because you
don't know what other filesystems the app may have access too.
We change this to mean that `--nofilesystem=host` removes *all* filesystem
access from the parent layer, and `--nofilesystem=home` removes all
file access to the homedir and paths inside it.
The available layers are, in order:
* app permissions
* overrides
* commandline args
This allows you to start from scratch with the filesystem permissions
in the overrides or the commandline. This is a small change in
behaviour, but not a lot of things use --nofilesystem, and the ones
that do probably expects this behaviour.

This tests for invalid metadata, missing xa.metadata and mismatched
values in xa.metadata and the real metadata, including the embedded
null leading to the hidden permissions of CVE-2021-43860.

(cherry picked from commit b250541302187ff2209b0bb1295e8223d0af860f)
This was disables a long time ago because the fedora remotes didn't
contain metadata, but that has been added since then. Requiring fixes
a security concern where an app claims to require no permissions (by
having no metadata in commit) but then actually requires permissions
in the installed app.
(cherry picked from commit f0f3a35f404b5bd533186095db055f8b3d135576)
If we fail to parse xa.metadata from the summary cache or the commit
xa.metadata we fail the resolve.
If xa.metadata is missing in the commit we fail the resolve (it is
always set in the summary cache, because summary update converts
missing xa.metadata to "", so we either get that, or cache miss which
leads to resolving from the commit.
This means that op->resolved_metadata is always set during install and
updates, which means we will show the app permissions. The transaction
will also always make sure that this data actually matches what gets
deployed.
Before this change an invalid metadata in the summary cache could lead
to a NULL resolved_metadata, which means we wouldn't print the app
permissions, yet we would still deploy some metadata file that could
have permissions. (NOTE: It would fail to deploy unless the
xa.metadata in the commit matched the metadata file, but in this
corner case we would't compare the summary and commit metadata, so
they may differ.)
(cherry picked from commit 5036bca4214d5b77e884dec42e36496a06e74081)
In particular, if a null terminator is placed inside the metadata file,
Flatpak will only compare the text *before* it to the value of
xa.metadata, but the full file will be parsed when permissions are set
at runtime. This means that any app can include a null terminator in its
permissions metadata, and Flatpak will only show the user the
permissions *preceding* the terminator during install, but the
permissions *after* the terminator are applied at runtime.
