Security Fixes

  • LOW: A malicious user could execute a 'tab-nabbing' attack by exploiting window.opener when linking from GitHub Enterprise hosted Markdown content.
  • Packages have been updated to the latest security versions.

Bug Fixes

  • Promoting a replica could take an excessive amount of time in a multi-replica environment.
  • Self-signed TLS certificates would fail to generate on Azure instances.
  • Tags created through a release contained incomplete reflog data
  • Organizations could be incorrectly suspended via the Suspend User REST API.

Upcoming deprecation of GitHub Enterprise 2.11

GitHub Enterprise 2.11 will be deprecated as of September 13, 2018. That means that no patch releases will be made, even for critical security issues, after this date. For better performance, improved security, and new features, upgrade to the newest version of GitHub Enterprise as soon as possible.

Known Issues

  • We incorrectly redirect to the dashboard if you accessed GitHub Enterprise using an alias while in private mode. This might happen if you set a fully qualified domain name but the subdomain resolves correctly.
  • Images uploaded to issues save with an absolute URL, so they can be broken if the hostname changes.
  • On a freshly set up GitHub Enterprise without any users, an attacker could create the first admin user.
  • Custom firewall rules aren't maintained during an upgrade.
  • svn checkout may timeout while the repository data cache is being built. In most cases, subsequent svn checkout attempts will succeed.
  • Git LFS tracked files uploaded through the web interface are incorrectly added directly to the repository.
  • Pull request review comments migrated with ghe-migrator are displayed in the wrong order.
  • The pull request review request has users reversed, after migration with ghe-migrator.
  • The comment count in the "Conversation" tab of a pull request migrated with ghe-migrator can be wrong.
  • The gpgverify service may consume large amounts of CPU time even when not processing requests.

Remote code execution with server side request forgery in GitHub Enterprise

A CRITICAL issue was identified that allows an attacker with repository admin or owner privileges to execute arbitrary commands on the appliance.

The affected supported versions are:

  • 2.11.0 - 2.11.23
  • 2.12.0 - 2.12.16
  • 2.13.0 - 2.13.8
  • 2.14.0 - 2.14.2

Next steps

Due to a change in the implementation on GitHub Enterprise 2.12 and later, it is not possible to apply the same fix to GitHub Enterprise 2.11. We strongly recommend upgrading GitHub Enterprise 2.11 to 2.12 or newer.

Security Fixes

  • Packages have been updated to the latest security versions.

Bug Fixes

  • Harmless 'Cannot add dependency job for unit cloud-config.service, ignoring' messages we reported to syslog when booting non-cloud based appliances.
  • MySQL procedures executed when MySQL starts could fail if tables don't exist yet. This could prevent MySQL replication from starting in cluster and high availability environments.
  • Hotpatching on Azure would fail due to a package conflict between waagent and walinuxagent.
  • The public pages for GitHub Apps responded with a 500 Internal Server Error on some installations that use SAML or CAS for authentication.
  • The ghe-org-admin-promote command-line utility would fail when attempting to promote a user without two-factor-authentication enabled as an admin of an org where two-factor authentication is required.
  • New repository maintenance jobs would attempt to start whilst another maintenance job was still running on very large repositories.

Changes

  • User-Agent has been added to Access-Control-Allow-Headers to support API clients which follow the Fetch specification.

Meltdown

This release addresses the Meltdown (CVE-2017-5754) attack. This has been fixed in the 3.16.51-3+deb8u1 release from Debian. Please note that this patch does not address the Spectre (CVE-2017-5753 and CVE-2017-5715) vulnerability. A fix is not available for the Spectre vulnerability yet.

Internally conducted benchmarks indicate the performance impact is limited to a 2-5% increase in CPU usage on most platforms. The impact can vary depending on your usage and platform though. If you see a significant performance difference, don't hesitate to reach out to Enterprise Support.

Note on Hotpatching

The hotpatch contains an upgrade to the kernel and requires a reboot. The Meltdown attack is not fixed until a reboot is performed.

Security Fixes

  • HIGH: Kernel is updated to 3.16.51-3+deb8u1 which implements Kernel Page Table Isolation (KPTI) to address Meltdown.

Bug Fixes

  • The ghe-dpages check-replicas command could show an error incorrectly with widely dispersed geo replicas.

Known Issues

  • We incorrectly redirect to the dashboard if you accessed GitHub Enterprise using an alias while in private mode. This might happen if you set a fully qualified domain name but the subdomain resolves correctly.

Meltdown & Spectre

Meltdown (CVE-2017-5754) and Spectre (CVE-2017-5753 and CVE-2017-5715) exploit critical vulnerabilities in modern processors. These hardware vulnerabilities allow programs to extract data which is currently processed on the same machine. This also can affect GitHub Enterprise.

The risk to GitHub Enterprise depends on the environment that it runs in. There are two main vectors of attack that need to be considered.

Virtualization platform

Given that GitHub Enterprise runs on various virtualization platforms, it's essential to update the virtualization platform where possible to mitigate any of these issues. The existing patches and fixes almost all focus on solving Meltdown. Meltdown is more straightforward to fix and most providers focus on this first.

Spectre is more complicated to exploit and also more complicated to fix. KVM for example is not vulnerable to Meltdown but is vulnerable, with a proof of concept, to Spectre which was tested by Google in the project originally (see https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.nl/2018/01/reading-privileged-memory-with-side.html). Specifically under "Reading host memory from a KVM guest". This Spectre exploit tested against a specific kernel version, but nothing implies it's impossible to adapt for other kernel versions and or other virtualization platforms.

The following Cloud and virtualization platforms have released announcements and/or fixes.

Inside GitHub Enterprise

The vulnerability can also be exploited if there is code under the control of an attacker running on the same system. GitHub Enterprise has very limited support for custom code in the form of pre-receive hooks. Pre-receive hooks are limited such that administrators are the only ones who can set them up and their runtime execution is limited to 5 seconds. Both these aspects greatly limit the risk of data exposure through pre-receive hooks. As a general rule, administrators should ensure that only known and trusted pre-receive hooks are enabled on their appliance.

GitHub Enterprise is based on Debian Jessie. A fix for Meltdown is not yet available for Debian Jessie, as can be seen in the Debian CVE tracker for Meltdown. The new kernel version will be included in a future release of GitHub Enterprise and can potentially come with a performance regression. Accordingly, we recommend testing that release before putting it into production.

Summary

The primary risk for GitHub Enterprise installations is cross-guest or host <-> guest data leakage on the virtualization platform. This may be mitigated by the support cloud hosting providers, or by the suppliers of virtualization software. There is very limited risk of externally supplied software running within the appliance obtaining data from other processes, mitigated by administrators only enabling pre-receive hooks that are reviewed and trusted.

Security Fixes

  • LOW: Pre-receive hooks could access internal cloud platform metadata. The metadata resources have been restricted to the root user.
  • Packages have been updated to the latest security versions.

Bug Fixes

  • Changing the parent of a nested team can result in the nested team not receiving updated inherited permissions.
  • After changing HTTP proxy configuration in the Management Console, webhooks did not use the settings unless hookshot-resqued was restarted manually.
  • NUMA enabled appliances could crash with a kernel panic. This was a known issue with linux-image-3.16.51-2.
  • The pre-receive hook $GITHUB_PULL_REQUEST_AUTHOR_LOGIN environment variable was empty when pull requests were merged via the API.

Changes

  • GitHub Enterprise support ticket creation via e-mail (enterprise@github.com) has been disabled. Please contact GitHub Enterprise Support using the Submitting a ticket article.

Known Issues

  • We incorrectly redirect to the dashboard if you accessed GitHub Enterprise using an alias while in private mode. This might happen if you set a fully qualified domain name but the subdomain resolves correctly.
  • Images uploaded to issues save with an absolute URL, so they can be broken if the hostname changes.

GitHub Enterprise includes protection from vulnerable, weak SSH keys (CVE-2017-15361)

In response to CVE-2017-15361, certain SSH authentication RSA keys that were generated by some Yubikey 4 devices are vulnerable to private key factorization. Such keys are considered cryptographically weak and therefore in need of replacement. To help users avoid vulnerable keys, GitHub Enterprise has added capabilities to detect and reject them from being configured for user authentication. GitHub Enterprise now includes an administration utility, ghe-ssh-weak-fingerprints, to enable admins to list any affected keys and, optionally, perform a bulk revocation.

The affected supported versions are:

  • 2.8.0 - 2.8.21
  • 2.9.0 - 2.9.13
  • 2.10.0 - 2.10.8
  • 2.11.0 - 2.11.2

This vulnerability was found and reported internally and we have no evidence that it has been exploited in the wild.
We strongly recommend upgrading your GitHub Enterprise appliance to the latest patch release in your series, GitHub Enterprise 2.8.22, 2.9.14, 2.10.9, or 2.11.3.

Please contact GitHub Enterprise Support if you have questions.

Security Fixes

  • Packages have been updated to the latest security versions.

Bug Fixes

  • On Firefox browsers, the first page of some PDF files was blank when rendered.
  • Hotpatching failed to retain maintenance mode after a hotpatch was applied.
  • The babeld service required a manual restart after a hotpatch was applied.
  • SMTP port was still accepting TLSv1 even after disabling the TLSv1 protocol via the Management Console.
  • With private mode enabled, using git lfs locks to show the current locks on files tracked by Git LFS showed a user ID instead of a username.
  • Activities were not shown on the dashboard for users without any repositories.
  • Suspending all dormant users failed due to a serialization bug.
  • Password reset emails included an inaccurate description of when the password reset link would expire.
  • Migrating specific repositories with ghe-migrator failed if an organization level Project referred to a repository that wasn't exported.
  • Querying the Teams API endpoint could result in a 500 HTTP error if LDAP authentication was enabled.
  • A "Select a user below to manage roles" team maintainers tip was shown for LDAP-mapped teams.
  • Attempting to reset the password of a suspended user did not redirect the user to the suspended page.
  • Restoring a deleted repository from the site admin dashboard did not correctly restore its wiki. (updated 2017-11-09)
  • Checking high availability replication status could incorrectly report "CRITICAL: git-hooks replication is behind the primary by 3600s".
  • The "Clear page cache" link in the site admin modal failed if the current page's URL included query string parameters.
  • Pre-receive hooks could succeed or fail incorrectly because the $GITHUB_VIA environment variable contained a truncated value.

Known Issues

  • We incorrectly redirect to the dashboard if you accessed GitHub Enterprise using an alias while in private mode. This might happen if you set a fully qualified domain name but the subdomain resolves correctly.
  • Images uploaded to issues save with an absolute URL, so they can be broken if the hostname changes.
  • On a freshly set up GitHub Enterprise without any users, an attacker could create the first admin user.
  • Custom firewall rules aren't maintained during an upgrade.
  • svn checkout may timeout while the repository data cache is being built. In most cases, subsequent svn checkout attempts will succeed.
  • Git LFS tracked files uploaded through the web interface are incorrectly added directly to the repository.
  • GitHub Enterprise clustering can not be configured without https.
  • Deleting a search index doesn't delete all associated metadata, which are then incorrectly reused if a new search index is created. This causes search index repair jobs to be reported as finished in the site admin when they were not.
  • For a user or organization named apps, the profile page at /apps shows an integrations landing page and repository pages at /apps/<repository> result in a 404 Not Found response due to a conflict with an internal URL. (updated 2017-11-08)
  • Changing the parent of a nested team can result in the nested team not receiving updated inherited permissions. (updated 2017-10-27)
  • After changing the visibility of a repository, wiki search results have a conflicting number of displayed search results. Administrators can reindex the wiki through the site admin dashboard. (updated 2017-11-09)
  • After changing HTTP proxy configuration in the Management Console, webhooks do not use the settings unless hookshot-resqued is restarted manually via SSH by running: sudo systemctl restart hookshot-resqued. (updated 2017-12-19)
  • The merge button could get stuck in the "Checking for ability to merge" state. (updated 2017-12-20)
  • Rebuilding a search index—including during an upgrade to this version—could cause many exceptions to be logged to /var/log/github/exceptions.log. The fast growth of this log file could cause the root disk to fill up. (updated 2017-12-20)
  • Pull request review comments migrated with ghe-migrator are displayed in the wrong order. (updated 2017-12-20)
  • The pull request review request has users reversed, after migration with ghe-migrator. (updated 2017-12-20)
  • The comment count in the "Conversation" tab of a pull request migrated with ghe-migrator can be wrong. (updated 2017-12-20)
  • The create team API endpoint returns a 500 error if LDAP Sync is enabled and the team already exists. (updated 2018-01-09)
  • The gpgverify service may consume large amounts of CPU time even when not processing requests. (updated 2018-02-14)
  • Pull request reviewer usernames were not updated if a reviewer was mapped to a different username when migrating repositories using ghe-migrator. (updated 2018-04-12)
  • Nameid-format matching on SAML response is too strict when value is "unspecified", which can cause an error with the "Another user already owns the account." message if the IdP changes NameID. (updated 2018-06-25)

Note on Hotpatching

The hotpatch contains an upgrade to the kernel and related packages and requires a reboot. The reboot can be performed at a later time after applying the hotpatch.

This release has been withdrawn and is no longer available. Please upgrade to a newer version or contact support for assistance.

If you have already upgraded your appliance to GitHub Enterprise 2.11.1, please contact support for assistance.

Notice

  • The 2.11.1 patch release has been withdrawn due to the introduction of a major bug which caused memory budgets for services to be under-allocated. If you have already upgraded your appliance to GitHub Enterprise 2.11.1, please contact support for assistance. (updated 2017-09-21)

Security Fixes

  • Packages have been updated to the latest security versions.
  • LOW: A PDF with looping xref tables caused the PDF renderer to consume high amounts of CPU or hang a user's browser. This vulnerability was also patched in 2.11.0.

GitHub Enterprise 2.11.0 September 13, 2017 Download

Features

Security Fixes

  • Packages have been updated to their latest security versions.
  • LOW: A PDF with looping xref tables caused the PDF renderer to consume high amounts of CPU or hang a user's browser. (updated 2017-09-19)

Bug Fixes

  • Commit contributions for a repository were not rebuilt when the gh-pages branch is deleted.
  • In a clustering environment, ghe-cluster-config-node-init could fail silently.
  • Adding a project note containing emoji would fail with a '500 Internal Server Error'.
  • The Branch Merging API stripped lines starting with # from commit messages.
  • The user suggestion functionality could timeout when adding members to a very large team.
  • Adding files with a blank content type, e.g. .zip, .docx, to conversations in issues and pull requests would fail.
  • An empty Projects board was shown when Elasticsearch was unavailable or rebuilding indices after an upgrade.

Changes

  • The MIME types used by GitHub Pages match those used by the rest of the appliance.
  • Syslog identifiers for various services have been made more explicit to make it easier to identify the service.
  • The maximum number of multiplexed session for administrative SSH session has been increased to 100. This improves backup restores for clustering environments.
  • NTLM has been removed from the SMTP configuration as an authentication protocol option. This was not working and is insecure.
  • Releases are sorted first by date and then semantic version instead of lexicographically.
  • Support for legacy high availability replication has been removed in 2.11. The default replication mechanism changed in 2.9 and this is now the only option in 2.11. This change has no impact unless legacy high availability replication was explicitly configured.
  • OpenVPN, used in high availability and clustering environments, has been upgraded to 2.4 with support for ECDHE. This removes the need to generate DH parameters and speeds up initial OpenVPN setup.
  • Pre-receive hooks now run as an unprivileged dedicated user. This could impact running hooks if hooks write temporary data outside /tmp. Running pre-receive hooks as an unprivileged dedicated user improves security by limiting access to the rest of the system from pre-receive hooks.
  • GitHub Pages now uses Jekyll 3.5.1.
  • GitHub Pages now uses Commonmark for Markdown rendering.
  • Using enterprise@github.com as the support address is no longer supported. Customers who have this email address configured need to change it to a valid internal support address or URL.
  • samplicator, the utility that sends statistics to the metrics servers in cluster environments, now runs as an unprivileged dedicated user.
  • The commit button text is now shown as "Commit merge" in the conflict editor to better communicate what is happening.

Backups and Disaster Recovery

GitHub Enterprise 2.11 requires at least GitHub Enterprise Backup Utilities 2.11.0 for Backups and Disaster Recovery.

Upcoming deprecation of Internet Explorer 11 support

  • Support for Internet Explorer 11 will be deprecated on September 13, 2018.

Upcoming deprecation of VMware ESX 5.5 support

  • Support for VMware ESX 5.5 will be deprecated on September 13, 2018.

Upcoming deprecation of GitHub Enterprise 2.8

GitHub Enterprise 2.8 will be deprecated as of November 9, 2017. That means that no patch releases will be made, even for critical security issues, after this date. For better performance, improved security, and new features, upgrade to the newest version of GitHub Enterprise as soon as possible.
