1 merge request!609Bug 41687: Rebased alpha to 102.10
<details>
<summary>Explanation of Variables</summary>
- `$(ESR_VERSION)` : the Mozilla defined ESR version, used in various places for building tor-browser tags, labels, etc
- example : `102.8.0`
- `$(RR_VERSION)` : the Mozilla defined Rapid-Release version; Tor Browser for Android is based off of the `$(ESR_VERSION)`, but Mozilla's Firefox for Android is based off of the `$(RR_VERSION)` so we need to keep track of security vulnerabilities to backport from the monthly Rapid-Release train and our frozen ESR train.
- example: `110`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_MAJOR)` : the Tor Browser major version
- example : `12`
- `$(TOR_BROWSER_MINOR)` : the Tor Browser minor version
- example : either `0` or `5`; Alpha's is always `(Stable + 5) % 10`
- `$(BUILD_N)` : a project's build revision within a its branch; many of the Firefox-related projects have a `$(BUILD_N)` suffix and may differ between projects even when they contribute to the same build.
- example : `build1`
</details>
**NOTE:** It is assumed the `tor-browser` rebase has already happened and there exists a `build1` build tag for both `base-browser` and `tor-browser`
### **Bookkeeping**
- [ ] Link this issue to the appropriate [Release Prep](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser-build/-/issues/?sort=updated_desc&state=opened&label_name%5B%5D=Release%20Prep) issues (stable and alpha).
### **Security Vulnerabilities Report** : https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/
- Potentially Affected Components:
- `firefox`/`geckoview` : https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev
- `application-services` : https://github.com/mozilla/application-services
- `android-components` : https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-android
- `fenix` : https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-android
**NOTE:** `android-components` and `fenix` used to have their own repos, but since November 2022 they have converged to a single `firefox-android` repo. Any backports will require manually porting patches over to our legacy repos.
- [ ] Go through any `Security Vulnerabilities fixed in Firefox $(RR_VERSION)` (or similar) and create a candidate list of CVEs which potentially need to be backported in this issue:
- CVEs which are explicitly labeled as 'Android' only
- CVEs which are fixed in Rapid Release but not in ESR
- 'Memory safety bugs' fixed in Rapid Release but not in ESR
- [ ] Foreach issue:
- Create link to the CVE on [mozilla.org](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/)
- example: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2023-05/#CVE-2023-25740
- Create link to the associated Bugzilla issues (found in the CVE description)
- Create a link to the relevant `gecko-dev`/other commit hashes which need to be backported OR a brief justification for why the fix does not need to be backported
- To find the `gecko-dev` version of a `mozilla-central`, search for a unique string in the relevant `mozilla-central` commit message in the `gecko-dev/release` branch log.
- **NOTE:** This process is unfortunately somewhat poorly defined/ad-hoc given the general variation in how Bugzilla issues are labeled and resolved. In general this is going to involve a bit of hunting to identify needed commits or determining whether or not the fix is relevant.
### **tor-browser** : https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser.git
- [ ] Backport any Android-specific security fixes from Firefox rapid-release
- [ ] Sign/Tag commit:

- Message: `Tagging $(BUILD_N) for $(ESR_VERSION)-based alpha)`
- [ ] Push tag to `origin`
**OR**
- [ ] No backports
### **application-services** : *TODO: we will need to setup a gitlab copy of this repo that we can apply security backports to if there are ever any security issues here*

- [ ] Push tag to `origin`
**OR**
- [ ] No backports
### **android-components** : https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/android-components.git

### **Bookkeeping**
- [ ] Link this issue to the appropriate [Release Prep](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser-build/-/issues/?sort=updated_desc&state=opened&label_name%5B%5D=Release%20Prep) issue.
### **Rebase base-browser**
- [ ] Checkout a new branch for the `base-browser` rebase
- example: `git branch base-browser-rebase FIREFOX_102_8_0esr_BUILD1`
- [ ] Cherry-pick the previous `base-browser` commits up to `base-browser`'s `build1` tag onto new `base-browser` rebase branch
- example: `git cherry-pick FIREFOX_102_7_0esr_BUILD1..base-browser-102.7.0esr-12.5-1-build1`
- [ ] Rebase and autosquash these cherry-picked commits
- example: `git rebase --autosquash --interactive FIREFOX_102_8_0esr_BUILD1 HEAD`
- [ ] Cherry-pick remainder of patches after the `build1` tag
- example: `git cherry-pick base-browser-102.7.0esr-12.5-1-build1 origin/base-browser-102.7.0esr-12.5-1`
- [ ] Compare patch sets to ensure nothing *weird* happened during conflict resolution:
- [ ] diff of diffs:
- Do the diff between `current_patchset.diff` and `rebased_patchset.diff` with your preferred difftool and look at differences on lines that starts with + or -
- `git diff $(ESR_TAG_PREV)..$(BASE_BROWSER_BRANCH_PREV) > current_patchset.diff`
- `git diff $(ESR_TAG)..$(BASE_BROWSER_BRANCH) > rebased_patchset.diff`
- diff `current_patchset.diff` and `rebased_patchset.diff`
- If everything went correctly, the only lines which should differ should be the lines starting with `index abc123...def456`
- [ ] rangediff: `git range-diff $(ESR_TAG_PREV)..$(BASE_BROWSER_BRANCH_PREV) $(ESR_TAG)..HEAD`
- example: `git range-dif FIREFOX_102_7_0esr_BUILD1..origin/base-browser-102.7.0esr-12.5-1 FIREFOX_102_8_0esr_BUILD1..HEAD`
- [ ] Open MR for the `base-browser` rebase
- [ ] Merge
- [ ] Sign/Tag HEAD of the merged new `base-browser` branch:
- Tag : `base-browser-$(ESR_VERSION)esr-$(BROWSER_MAJOR).$(BROWSER_MINOR)-1-build1`

- [ ] Cherry-pick the previous `tor-browser` commits from `base-browser`'s previous `build1` tag up to `tor-browser`'s newest `buildN` tag (not necessarily `build1` if we have multiple build tags)
- example: `git cherry-pick base-browser-102.7.0esr-12.5-1-build1..tor-browser-102.7.0esr-12.5-1-build1`
- [ ] Rebase and autosquash these cherry-picked commits (from the last new `base-browser` commit to `HEAD`)
- example: `git rebase --autosquash --interactive base-browser-102.8.0esr-12.5-1-build1 HEAD`
- [ ] Cherry-pick remainder of patches after the last `buildN` tag
- example: `git cherry-pick base-browser-102.7.0esr-12.5-1-build1..origin/tor-browser-102.7.0esr-12.5-1`
- [ ] Compare patch sets to ensure nothing *weird* happened during conflict resolution:
