Failure Point patch step - applying GHSA-5rjg-fvgr-3xxf.patch to requirements/download-deps/bootstrap-win-lock.txt

Root Cause Analysis 🔍

The patch file GHSA-5rjg-fvgr-3xxf.patch could not be applied to the bootstrap-win-lock.txt file. The patch was expecting to find content at line 14 but the actual file content didn't match what the patch expected, causing the hunk to fail. This is likely due to the source code having changed since the patch was created, making the patch no longer compatible with the current version of the file.

Analysis

Looking at the three similar fixes, there's a clear pattern: when patches fail to apply cleanly due to version mismatches, the most effective solution is to update to a newer version where the patch is no longer needed (because the fix is already included upstream) and remove the failing patch entirely. In Fix Example #0, they updated from 2.3.0 to 2.4.0 and regenerated requirements files. In Fix Example #1, they updated from 2.13.0 to 2.14.1 and removed the CVE patch. In Fix Example #2, they created a new package for version 4.0.0. The common thread is that newer upstream versions often include security fixes that make separate patches unnecessary.

Explanation

This fix should work because the GHSA-5rjg-fvgr-3xxf patch is failing to apply to the bootstrap-win-lock.txt file, indicating that the file content has changed since the patch was created. This is a common scenario when security patches are created for older versions but the current source code has evolved. By updating to a newer version (2.29.0), we're likely getting a version where the security vulnerability has already been fixed upstream, making the separate patch unnecessary. This approach is consistent with Wolfi's guiding principle of keeping packages up to date with upstream releases. The pattern from the similar fixes shows that removing the failing patch and updating the version is the most reliable solution, as it eliminates the patch compatibility issue entirely while still addressing the security concern through the upstream fix.

Alternative Approaches

  • Regenerate the patch file for the current version by manually applying the security fix to the bootstrap-win-lock.txt file and creating a new patch
  • Check if there's an even newer version (2.30.x or later) that might be available
  • Investigate whether the security fix can be applied through a different mechanism, such as modifying the configure step or build process
  • Create a custom patch that targets the exact line numbers and content in the current version of the file
