The SMACK64, SMACK64EXEC, and SMACK64MMAP labels are all handled differently in untrusted mounts. This is confusing and potentically problematic. Change this to handle them all the same way that SMACK64 is currently handled; that is, read the label from disk and check it at use time. For SMACK64 and SMACK64MMAP access is denied if the label does not match smk_root. To be consistent with suid, a SMACK64EXEC label which does not match smk_root will still allow execution of the file but will not run with the label supplied in the xattr. Signed-off-by:

Security labels from unprivileged mounts cannot be trusted. Ideally for these mounts we would assign the objects in the filesystem the same label as the inode for the backing device passed to mount. Unfortunately it's currently impossible to determine which inode this is from the LSM mount hooks, so we settle for the label of the process doing the mount. This label is assigned to s_root, and also to smk_default to ensure that new inodes receive this label. The transmute property is also set on s_root to make this behavior more explicit, even though it is technically not necessary. If a filesystem has existing security labels, access to inodes is permitted if the label is the same as smk_root, otherwise access is denied. The SMACK64EXEC xattr is completely ignored. Explicit setting of security labels continues to require CAP_MAC_ADMIN in init_user_ns. Altogether, this ensures that filesystem objects are not accessible to subjects which cannot already access the backing store, that MAC is not violated for any objects in the fileystem which are already labeled, and that a user cannot use an unprivileged mount to gain elevated MAC privileges. sysfs, tmpfs, and ramfs are already mountable from user namespaces and support security labels. We can't rule out the possibility that these filesystems may already be used in mounts from user namespaces with security lables set from the init namespace, so failing to trust lables in these filesystems may introduce regressions. It is safe to trust labels from these filesystems, since the unprivileged user does not control the backing store and thus cannot supply security labels, so an explicit exception is made to trust labels from these filesystems.

If a process gets access to a mount from a different user namespace, that process should not be able to take advantage of setuid files or selinux entrypoints from that filesystem. Prevent this by treating mounts from other mount namespaces and those not owned by current_user_ns() or an ancestor as nosuid. This will make it safer to allow more complex filesystems to be mounted in non-root user namespaces. This does not remove the need for MNT_LOCK_NOSUID. The setuid, setgid, and file capability bits can no longer be abused if code in a user namespace were to clear nosuid on an untrusted filesystem, but this patch, by itself, is insufficient to protect the system from abuse of files that, when execed, would increase MAC privilege. As a more concrete explanation, any task that can manipulate a vfsmount associated with a given user namespace already has capabilities in that namespace and all of its descendents. If they can cause a malicious setuid, setgid, or file-caps executable to appear in that mount, then that executable will only allow them to elevate privileges in exactly the set of namespaces in which they are already privileges. On the other hand, if they can cause a malicious executable to appear with a dangerous MAC label, running it could change the caller's security context in a way that should not have been possible, even inside the namespace in which the task is confined. As a hardening measure, this would have made CVE-2014-5207 much more difficult to exploit. Signed-off-by:

Capability sets attached to files must be ignored except in the user namespaces where the mounter is privileged, i.e. s_user_ns and its descendants. Otherwise a vector exists for gaining privileges in namespaces where a user is not already privileged. Add a new helper function, current_in_user_ns(), to test whether a user namespace is the same as or a descendant of another namespace. Use this helper to determine whether a file's capability set should be applied to the caps constructed during exec. --EWB Replaced in_userns with the simpler current_in_userns. Acked-by:

Replace the implict setting of MNT_NODEV on mounts that happen with just user namespace permissions with an implicit setting of SB_I_NODEV in s_iflags. The visibility of the implicit MNT_NODEV has caused problems in the past. With this change the fragile case where an implicit MNT_NODEV needs to be preserved in do_remount is removed. Using SB_I_NODEV is much less fragile as s_iflags are set during the original mount and never changed. In do_new_mount with the implicit setting of MNT_NODEV gone, the only code that can affect mnt_flags is fs_fully_visible so simplify the if statement and reduce the indentation of the code to make that clear.

Verify all filesystems that we check in mount_too_revealing set SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV in sb->s_iflags. That is true for today and it should remain true in the future. Remove the now unnecessary checks from mnt_already_visibile that ensure MNT_LOCK_NOSUID, MNT_LOCK_NOEXEC, and MNT_LOCK_NODEV are preserved. Making the code shorter and easier to read. Relying on SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV instead of the user visible MNT_NOSUID, MNT_NOEXEC, and MNT_NODEV ensures the many current systems where proc and sysfs are mounted with "nosuid, nodev, noexec" and several slightly buggy container applications don't bother to set those flags continue to work.

Introduce a function may_open_dev that tests MNT_NODEV and a new superblock flab SB_I_NODEV. Use this new function in all of the places where MNT_NODEV was previously tested. Add the new SB_I_NODEV s_iflag to proc, sysfs, and mqueuefs as those filesystems should never support device nodes, and a simple superblock flags makes that very hard to get wrong. With SB_I_NODEV set if any device nodes somehow manage to show up on on a filesystem those device nodes will be unopenable. Acked-by:

Eric W. Biederman authored
The cgroup filesystem is in the same boat as sysfs. No one ever permits executables of any kind on the cgroup filesystem, and there is no reasonable future case to support executables in the future. Therefore move the setting of SB_I_NOEXEC which makes the code proof against future mistakes of accidentally creating executables from sysfs to kernfs itself. Making the code simpler and covering the sysfs, cgroup, and cgroup2 filesystems. Acked-by:

Eric W. Biederman authored
Start marking filesystems with a user namespace owner, s_user_ns. In this change this is only used for permission checks of who may mount a filesystem. Ultimately s_user_ns will be used for translating ids and checking capabilities for filesystems mounted from user namespaces. The default policy for setting s_user_ns is implemented in sget(), which arranges for s_user_ns to be set to current_user_ns() and to ensure that the mounter of the filesystem has CAP_SYS_ADMIN in that user_ns. The guts of sget are split out into another function sget_userns(). The function sget_userns calls alloc_super with the specified user namespace or it verifies the existing superblock that was found has the expected user namespace, and fails with EBUSY when it is not. This failing prevents users with the wrong privileges mounting a filesystem. The reason for the split of sget_userns from sget is that in some cases such as mount_ns and kernfs_mount_ns a different policy for permission checking of mounts and setting s_user_ns is necessary, and the existence of sget_userns() allows those policies to be implemented. The helper mount_ns is expected to be used for filesystems such as proc and mqueuefs which present per namespace information. The function mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns instead of sget to ensure the user namespace owner of the namespace whose information is presented by the filesystem is used on the superblock. For sysfs and cgroup the appropriate permission checks are already in place, and kernfs_mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns so that the init_user_ns is the only user namespace used. For the cgroup filesystem cgroup namespace mounts are bind mounts of a subset of the full cgroup filesystem and as such s_user_ns must be the same for all of them as there is only a single superblock. Mounts of sysfs that vary based on the network namespace could in principle change s_user_ns but it keeps the analysis and implementation of kernfs simpler if that is not supported, and at present there appear to be no benefits from supporting a different s_user_ns on any sysfs mount. Getting the details of setting s_user_ns correct has been a long process. Thanks to Pavel Tikhorirorv who spotted a leak in sget_userns. Thanks to Seth Forshee who has kept the work alive.

Eric W. Biederman authored
Today what is normally called data (the mount options) is not passed to fill_super through mount_ns. Pass the mount options and the namespace separately to mount_ns so that filesystems such as proc that have mount options, can use mount_ns. Pass the user namespace to mount_ns so that the standard permission check that verifies the mounter has permissions over the namespace can be performed in mount_ns instead of in each filesystems .mount method. Thus removing the duplication between mqueuefs and proc in terms of permission checks. The extra permission check does not currently affect the rpc_pipefs filesystem and the nfsd filesystem as those filesystems do not currently allow unprivileged mounts. Without unpvileged mounts it is guaranteed that the caller has already passed capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) which guarantees extra permission check will pass. Update rpc_pipefs and the nfsd filesystem to ensure that the network namespace reference is always taken in fill_super and always put in kill_sb so that the logic is simpler and so that errors originating inside of fill_super do not cause a network namespace leak.

Replace the call of fs_fully_visible in do_new_mount from before the new superblock is allocated with a call of mount_too_revealing after the superblock is allocated. This winds up being a much better location for maintainability of the code. The first change this enables is the replacement of FS_USERNS_VISIBLE with SB_I_USERNS_VISIBLE. Moving the flag from struct filesystem_type to sb_iflags on the superblock. Unfortunately mount_too_revealing fundamentally needs to touch mnt_flags adding several MNT_LOCKED_XXX flags at the appropriate times. If the mnt_flags did not need to be touched the code could be easily moved into the filesystem specific mount code. Acked-by:

In rare cases it is possible for s_flags & MS_RDONLY to be set but MNT_READONLY to be clear. This starting combination can cause fs_fully_visible to fail to ensure that the new mount is readonly. Therefore force MNT_LOCK_READONLY in the new mount if MS_RDONLY is set on the source filesystem of the mount. In general both MS_RDONLY and MNT_READONLY are set at the same for mounts so I don't expect any programs to care. Nor do I expect MS_RDONLY to be set on proc or sysfs in the initial user namespace, which further decreases the likelyhood of problems. Which means this change should only affect system configurations by paranoid sysadmins who should welcome the additional protection as it keeps people from wriggling out of their policies.

MNT_LOCKED implies on a child mount implies the child is locked to the parent. So while looping through the children the children should be tested (not their parent). Typically an unshare of a mount namespace locks all mounts together making both the parent and the slave as locked but there are a few corner cases where other things work.

The /dev/ptmx device node is changed to lookup the directory entry "pts" in the same directory as the /dev/ptmx device node was opened in. If there is a "pts" entry and that entry is a devpts filesystem /dev/ptmx uses that filesystem. Otherwise the open of /dev/ptmx fails. The DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES configuration option is removed, so that userspace can now safely depend on each mount of devpts creating a new instance of the filesystem. Each mount of devpts is now a separate and equal filesystem. Reserved ttys are now available to all instances of devpts where the mounter is in the initial mount namespace. A new vfs helper path_pts is introduced that finds a directory entry named "pts" in the directory of the passed in path, and changes the passed in path to point to it. The helper path_pts uses a function path_parent_directory that was factored out of follow_dotdot. In the implementation of devpts: - devpts_mnt is killed as it is no longer meaningful if all mounts of devpts are equal. - pts_sb_from_inode is replaced by just inode->i_sb as all cached inodes in the tty layer are now from the devpts filesystem. - devpts_add_ref is rolled into the new function devpts_ptmx. And the unnecessary inode hold is removed. - devpts_del_ref is renamed devpts_release and reduced to just a deacrivate_super. - The newinstance mount option continues to be accepted but is now ignored. In devpts_fs.h definitions for when !CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are removed as they are never used. Documentation/filesystems/devices.txt is updated to describe the current situation. This has been verified to work properly on openwrt-15.05, centos5, centos6, centos7, debian-6.0.2, debian-7.9, debian-8.2, ubuntu-14.04.3, ubuntu-15.10, fedora23, magia-5, mint-17.3, opensuse-42.1, slackware-14.1, gentoo-20151225 (13.0?), archlinux-2015-12-01. With the caveat that on centos6 and on slackware-14.1 that there wind up being two instances of the devpts filesystem mounted on /dev/pts, the lower copy does not end up getting used. Signed-off-by:

Syscalls should never crash programs, but instead return EFAULT. The IIR register contains the executed instruction, which disassebles into "ldw 0(sr3,r5),r9". This load-word instruction is part of __get_user() which tried to read the word at %r5/IOR (0xfa6f7fff). This means the unaligned handler jumped in. The unaligned handler is able to emulate all ldw instructions, but it fails if it fails to read the source e.g. because of page fault. The following program reproduces the problem: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/mman.h> int main(void) { /* allocate 8k */ char *ptr = mmap(NULL, 2*4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); /* free second half (upper 4k) and make it invalid. */ munmap(ptr+4096, 4096); /* syscall where first int is unaligned and clobbers into invalid memory region */ /* syscall should return EFAULT */ return syscall(__NR_clock_adjtime, 0, ptr+4095); } To fix this issue we simply need to check if the faulting instruction address is in the exception fixup table when the unaligned handler failed. If it is, call the fixup routine instead of crashing. While looking at the unaligned handler I found another issue as well: The target register should not be modified if the handler was unsuccessful.

This patch fixes backtrace on PA-RISC There were several problems: 1) The code that decodes instructions handles instructions that subtract from the stack pointer incorrectly. If the instruction subtracts the number X from the stack pointer the code increases the frame size by (0x100000000-X). This results in invalid accesses to memory and recursive page faults. 2) Because gcc reorders blocks, handling instructions that subtract from the frame pointer is incorrect. For example, this function int f(int a) { if (__builtin_expect(a, 1)) return a; g(); return a; } is compiled in such a way, that the code that decreases the stack pointer for the first "return a" is placed before the code for "g" call. If we recognize this decrement, we mistakenly believe that the frame size for the "g" call is zero. To fix problems 1) and 2), the patch doesn't recognize instructions that decrease the stack pointer at all. To further safeguard the unwind code against nonsense values, we don't allow frame size larger than Total_frame_size. 3) The backtrace is not locked. If stack dump races with module unload, invalid table can be accessed. This patch adds a spinlock when processing module tables. Note, that for correct backtrace, you need recent binutils. Binutils 2.18 from Debian 5 produce garbage unwind tables. Binutils 2.21 work better (it sometimes forgets function frames, but at least it doesn't generate garbage).

Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "Two fixes for problems introduced recently (ACPICA and the ACPI backlight driver) and one fix for an older issue that prevents at least one system from booting. Specifics: - Fix an incorrect check introduced by recent ACPICA changes which causes problems with booting KVM guests to happen, among other things (Lv Zheng). - Fix a backlight issue introduced by recent changes to the ACPI video driver (Aaron Lu). - Fix the ACPI processor initialization which attempts to register an IO region without checking if that really is necessary and sometimes prevents drivers loaded subsequently from registering their resources which leads to boot issues (Rafael Wysocki)" * tag 'acpi-4.7-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI / processor: Avoid reserving IO regions too early ACPICA / Hardware: Fix old register check in acpi_hw_get_access_bit_width() ACPI / Thermal / video: fix max_level incorrect value -

The optimistic fast path may use cpuset_current_mems_allowed instead of of a NULL nodemask supplied by the caller for cpuset allocations. The preferred zone is calculated on this basis for statistic purposes and as a starting point in the zonelist iterator. However, if the context can ignore memory policies due to being atomic or being able to ignore watermarks then the starting point in the zonelist iterator is no longer correct. This patch resets the zonelist iterator in the allocator slowpath if the context can ignore memory policies. This will alter the zone used for statistics but only after it is known that it makes sense for that context. Resetting it before entering the slowpath would potentially allow an ALLOC_CPUSET allocation to be accounted for against the wrong zone. Note that while nodemask is not explicitly set to the original nodemask, it would only have been overwritten if cpuset_enabled() and it was reset before the slowpath was entered.

Oleg has noted that siglock usage in try_oom_reaper is both pointless and dangerous. signal_group_exit can be checked lockless. The problem is that sighand becomes NULL in __exit_signal so we can crash.

In DEBUG_VM kernel, we can hit infinite loop for order == 0 in buffered_rmqueue() when check_new_pcp() returns 1, because the bad page is never removed from the pcp list. Fix this by removing the page before retrying. Also we don't need to check if page is non-NULL, because we simply grab it from the list which was just tested for being non-empty.
