This can fix this specific situation (that enables RFD attack) but what about using filePath#Clean?

I tried using that method,
but the " was not escaped (or URL Encoded), so The vulnerability was not fixed.

But since it's for file reading those quotes will be needed? File params would be readable with or without it, isn't?

@fabricioereche

Perhaps you are confusing the file name with the file path.
There may be some misunderstandings, so I will add to this.


The first thing to escape is the filename. Not filepath.

The second thing, The Filename escape requirements are then as follows

  • " --> %2F, \"
  • \r --> %0D, \\r
  • \n --> %0A, \\n

The third thing,
This line is the process of "escaping the 'file name at download time' on the HTTP Response Header.
In other words, filepath is irrelevant.

(The part that actually reads the file is the following line (filepath) )
https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin/pull/3556/files#diff-552f47512a00afe5fc6850cc9ddc830a6daeca162750e50aab4ed549685e0253R1063


But since it's for file reading those quotes will be needed? File params would be readable with or without it, isn't?

This is answered by the third matter mentioned above.
This tells the Request side to "download the file with this kind of file name".
It is not the file path to be read by the Server side.

Does this answer your question?

Is there a reason we can't use url.QueryEscape here? Just like in the UTF-8 version?

For my own implementation I had copied the implementation from Go http/multipart, so:

var quoteEscaper = strings.NewReplacer("\\", "\\\\", `"`, "\\\"")

func escapeQuotes(s string) string {
	return quoteEscaper.Replace(s)
}

h.Set("Content-Disposition", fmt.Sprintf(`form-data; name="%s"; filename="%s"`, escapeQuotes(fieldname), escapeQuotes(filename)))

@jerbob92

Is there a reason we can't use url.QueryEscape here? Just like in the UTF-8 version?

Both will solve the security issue.
First, the requirement for encoding by URL Encode is Whtat's WG > multipart/form-data requirements.

In this case, the requirement to "perform URL Encoding" is not (strictly) the same as that of What's WG, since this is a response.

On the other hand, there is no clear escape requirement specified in the RFC 6266 either.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6266#section-5

After that, we checked about 80 systems of several services, WebFrameworks, Browsers, etc., and found that most of them use BackSlash encoding for response headers, so we chose BackSlash style escaping and implemented it this time.

(For example, Gmail file downloads would have been in backslash format.)

In my personal opinion,
either is honestly fine, since the root cause is that the Content-Disposition specification is not strict.

@motoyasu-saburi I tested some different things and couldn't get around this fix, so for the least invasive change, I would indeed go for the string replacer version, and not the url.QueryEscape. I would go with the escapeQuotes method from http/multipart just so that the logic is matched.

fix backslashes before backquotes were not properly escaped problem.

@jerbob92 Thank you,
As you said, there was a problem.
I tried to fix it, Could you review it?

@motoyasu-saburi
I tried the escape trick too, but it didn't work, Chrome just transformed it into an underscore, so filename becomes tampering_field.sh_, so that's why I didn't see it as a real problem. But I think the current fix is the best solution.

Hi, when will this be merged and available in the next release? We use the gin framework at my workplace, and this CVE issue is urgent for us to fix, else we will have to migrate to another framework, which we don't want to do.

This PR is referenced in the Govulcheck database (https://pkg.go.dev/vuln/GO-2023-1737) and many people are waiting for the fix.

@appleboy is there anything we can do to help move this forward? It has been almost 2 months with this vulnerability and no fix, people get anxious, feeling unprotected. A suggestion from me would be that if you cannot do the review and merge, could you possibly delegate it to @thinkerou? Many thanks!

Unfortunately, we decided to move to another framework. For your security, take action.
