Looks good, but needs some security fixes. Should be simple to address though. Thanks!

We have format_bytes() in util.inc, is this different in some way that's required by TFTP?

No idea, no clue that it existed.

I'd prefer to see a test that $backup_dir contains something sane before using it in this way. Better as a function parameter than as a global. (Same with $files_dir)

backup_dir is hardcoded to /root/backup in tftp_files.php

The variable insertions here need to be changed out so they use escapeshellarg() instead of using them directly. For example:
if (mwexec("/usr/bin/tar -czC / -f " . escapeshellarg($backup_path) . " " . escapeshellarg($files_dir)) || !file_exists("{$backup_path}")) {


write_rcfile(array(
"file" => "tftpd.sh",
"start" => "/usr/local/libexec/in.tftpd -l -s {$datadir}",
"start" => "/usr/local/libexec/in.tftpd -l -s {$datadir} {$address} -P {$pidfile} {$options}",

See above, re: escapeshellarg(), except for $options which should be OK already

This definitely needs a sanity check to make sure the user didn't do something dumb like set it to /usr/local/www/ or /etc/. I see input validation prevents / but even so this may be too dangerous to rmdir. It's probably better to just leave the data in place.

As noted there, the only thing it removed are empty dirs. http://php.net/manual/en/function.rmdir.php

True but if it's empty, why bother?

Well to not leave lingering empty dir there (some people like to not leave cruft behind). Can remove it altogether of course, I have no preference here.

@jim-p - Most of the "variable" things you are requesting to escapeshellarg() are in fact hardcoded in the PHP. Most of the rest is treated by input validation. Whatever...

But before doing any other changes here - after looking at this again, I'd like to remove the datadir setting altogether and hardcode /tftpboot there. I cannot see any benefit here leaving it configurable, just adds a code bloat and potential issues with idiotic settings.

jim-p commented Jan 23, 2017

That may be, but it's the best practice to avoid potential future changes causing a problem. I'd rather do it correctly now and make sure there is never a problem than have one creep in later. And it's really simple to do the extra encoding now so there's little reason to skip it.

OK. Any objections on hardcoding /tftpboot here?

jim-p commented Jan 23, 2017

I can see how it's convenient to move it around, perhaps someone wants to put it under a specific user's home dir or whatnot, but those same issues could be solved via manual directory permissions and symlinks. I'd prefer to see it under /usr/local somewhere rather than in / but people are used to seeing it under /tftpboot so it may be too late to force that change if it can't be customized.

Well, this has been hardcoded to /tftpboot all the way up to 2.3 when the package went MIA - https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/blob/master/config/tftp2/tftp.inc#L60 - plus been the default with the only 2.3+ package version released so far.

Can do something like define('FILES_DIR', '/tftpboot'); and use that across the rest of code, so if someone really needs something else badly, then can change a single line in the package.

That sounds good then.

- Hardcode /tftpboot for security reasons. If custom location is desired, it can be changed by patching the FILES_DIR here. Notify users on upgrade in case they need to relocate their TFTP server files. Remove no longer needed input validation.
- Remove pointless tftp_byte_convert() and use format_bytes() from util.inc
- Use define() and constants instead of variables for hardcoded locations
- Move code for restoring a backup here.
- Move code to check whether users are trying to download/delete files that are out of the TFTP directory here.
- Add an escapeshellarg() for block size.
- The hardcoded locations are now defined() in tftp.inc
- Use format_bytes() from util.inc
- Fix the logic for full backup download and rename the button accordingly
- Code to code whether users are trying to download/delete files that are out of the TFTP directory here was moved to a function in tftp.inc
- Added bunch of htmlspecialchars() protections as requested

@jim-p - Revamped and cleaned up the code quite a bit again, please check again. Thanks for feedback.
