Notably, /// [`std::env::current_exe`] also has a security section that goes over a theoretical attack using /// hard links. Let's cover some specific topics that relate to different ways an attacker might /// try to trick this function into returning the wrong binary path. /// /// ## Symlinks ("Soft Links") /// /// [`std::path::Path::canonicalize`] is used to resolve symbolic links to the original path, /// including nested symbolic links (`link2 -> link1 -> bin`). On macOS, any results that include /// a symlink are rejected by default due to lesser symlink protections. This can be disabled, /// **although discouraged**, with the `process-relaunch-dangerous-allow-symlink-macos` feature. /// /// ## Hard Links /// /// A [Hard Link] is a named entry that points to a file in the file system. /// On most systems, this is what you would think of as a "file". The term is /// used on filesystems that allow multiple entries to point to the same file. /// The linked [Hard Link] Wikipedia page provides a decent overview. /// /// In short, unless the attacker was able to create the link with elevated /// permissions, it should generally not be possible for them to hard link /// to a file they do not have permissions to - with exception to possible /// operating system exploits. /// /// There are also some platform-specific information about this below. /// /// ### Windows /// /// Windows requires a permission to be set for the user to create a symlink /// or a hard link, regardless of ownership status of the target. Elevated /// permissions users have the ability to create them. /// /// ### macOS /// /// macOS allows for the creation of symlinks and hard links to any file. /// Accessing through those links will fail if the user who owns the links /// does not have the proper permissions on the original file. /// /// ### Linux /// /// Linux allows for the creation of symlinks to any file. Accessing the /// symlink will fail if the user who owns the symlink does not have the /// proper permissions on the original file. /// /// Linux additionally provides a kernel hardening feature since version /// 3.6 (30 September 2012). Most distributions since then have enabled /// the protection (setting `fs.protected_hardlinks = 1`) by default, which /// means that a vast majority of desktop Linux users should have it enabled. /// **The feature prevents the creation of hardlinks that the user does not own /// or have read/write access to.** [See the patch that enabled this]. /// /// [Hard Link]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link /// [See the patch that enabled this]: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=800179c9b8a1e796e441674776d11cd4c05d61d7 pub fn current_exe() -> std::io::Result { self::starting_binary::STARTING_BINARY.cloned() } /// Try to determine the current target triple. /// /// Returns a target triple (e.g. `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` or `i686-pc-windows-msvc`) or an /// `Error::Config` if the current config cannot be determined or is not some combination of the /// following values: /// `linux, mac, windows` -- `i686, x86, armv7` -- `gnu, musl, msvc` /// /// * Errors: /// * Unexpected system config pub fn target_triple() -> crate::Result { let arch = if cfg!(target_arch = "x86") { "i686" } else if cfg!(target_arch = "x86_64") { "x86_64" } else if cfg!(target_arch = "arm") { "armv7" } else if cfg!(target_arch = "aarch64") { "aarch64" } else { return Err(crate::Error::Architecture); }; let os = if cfg!(target_os = "linux") { "unknown-linux" } else if cfg!(target_os = "macos") { "apple-darwin" } else if cfg!(target_os = "windows") { "pc-windows" } else if cfg!(target_os = "freebsd") { "unknown-freebsd" } else { return Err(crate::Error::Os); }; let os = if cfg!(target_os = "macos") || cfg!(target_os = "freebsd") { String::from(os) } else { let env = if cfg!(target_env = "gnu") { "gnu" } else if cfg!(target_env = "musl") { "musl" } else if cfg!(target_env = "msvc") { "msvc" } else { return Err(crate::Error::Environment); }; format!("{}-{}", os, env) }; Ok(format!("{}-{}", arch, os)) } /// Computes the resource directory of the current environment. /// /// On Windows, it's the path to the executable. /// /// On Linux, when running in an AppImage the `APPDIR` variable will be set to /// the mounted location of the app, and the resource dir will be /// `${APPDIR}/usr/lib/${exe_name}`.
