Code Review
This pull request aims to address several security vulnerabilities in entrypoint.sh related to credential handling and command injection by quoting variables, using read -r, and disabling globbing. However, it introduces or maintains a logic error in the handling of VPNCMD_SERVER and VPNCMD_HUB environment variables, where only the first command in a semicolon-separated list is executed, potentially skipping security-critical configuration steps. Additionally, the fix for unquoted variables is incomplete, with several instances still using unquoted credential variables. There's also a missed adduser call that needs quoting and a format string vulnerability in the adduser function. Some refactoring suggestions are provided for globbing protection.

The current loop for VPNCMD_SERVER only executes the first command in a semicolon-separated list, silently ignoring subsequent commands. This can lead to an insecure configuration if critical commands are skipped. Additionally, the variable $CMD remains unquoted, which can cause word splitting and truncation of arguments with spaces. While set -f prevents globbing, using a subshell for set -f can make the globbing protection more concise and robust.

Similar to the VPNCMD_SERVER issue, the loop for VPNCMD_HUB only executes the first command in a semicolon-separated list, ignoring subsequent commands. This can lead to incomplete or insecure configuration. Using a subshell for set -f could also provide a cleaner way to disable globbing for single command execution.
| while IFS=";" read -r -a CMD; do | |
| set -f | |
| vpncmd_hub $CMD | |
| set +f | |
| done <<<"$VPNCMD_HUB" | |
| while IFS=";" read -r -a CMDS; do | |
| for CMD in "${CMDS[@]}"; do | |
| set -f | |
| vpncmd_hub $CMD | |
| set +f | |
| done | |
| done <<<"$VPNCMD_HUB" |

This is a great fix for quoting the arguments to adduser.
However, I've noticed two related issues that seem to have been missed:
-
On line 149, the call
adduser $USERNAME $PASSWORDis still unquoted. This can lead to the same password truncation vulnerability if a password with spaces is provided via thePASSWORDenvironment variable. It should be changed toadduser "$USERNAME" "$PASSWORD". -
The
adduserfunction on line 133 has a format string vulnerability.printf " $1"will interpret format specifiers (like%s) in the username. This should be changed toprintf " %s" "$1"to safely print the username.
Since this PR aims to fix credential handling, it would be great to address these related vulnerabilities as well to make the script fully secure against these issues.

Only the first VPNCMD command runs.
read -a CMD splits on ;, but $CMD expands only the first element (SC2128), so subsequent commands are ignored.

🚨 Severity: HIGH
💡 Vulnerability: Unquoted variables in entrypoint.sh caused passwords with spaces to be truncated. 'read' without '-r' corrupted passwords with backslashes. Unquoted command variables allowed globbing.
🎯 Impact: Users setting passwords via environment variables could have them silently truncated or altered, leading to weak or incorrect credentials. Globbing could cause unexpected command execution.
🔧 Fix: Quoted all variables, added '-r' to read commands, and wrapped dynamic command execution in 'set -f'.
✅ Verification: Verified with a test script simulating the vulnerability and the fix.
