    Smack: Don't ignore other bprm->unsafe flags if LSM_UNSAFE_PTRACE is set · ef9744a0

    commit 3675f052 upstream.
    
    There is a logic bug in the current smack_bprm_set_creds():
    If LSM_UNSAFE_PTRACE is set, but the ptrace state is deemed to be
    acceptable (e.g. because the ptracer detached in the meantime), the other
    ->unsafe flags aren't checked. As far as I can tell, this means that
    something like the following could work (but I haven't tested it):
    
     - task A: create task B with fork()
     - task B: set NO_NEW_PRIVS
     - task B: install a seccomp filter that makes open() return 0 under some
       conditions
     - task B: replace fd 0 with a malicious library
     - task A: attach to task B with PTRACE_ATTACH
     - task B: execve() a file with an SMACK64EXEC extended attribute
     - task A: while task B is still in the middle of execve(), exit (which
       destroys the ptrace relationship)
    
    Make sure that if any flags other than LSM_UNSAFE_PTRACE are set in
    bprm->unsafe, we reject the execve().
