selinux: remove the SELinux lockdown implementation

2021-09-30T14:12:33+00:00

NOTE: This patch intentionally omits any "Fixes:" metadata or stable tagging since it removes a SELinux access control check; while removing the control point is the right thing to do moving forward, removing it in stable kernels could be seen as a regression. The original SELinux lockdown implementation in 59438b46471a ("security,lockdown,selinux: implement SELinux lockdown") used the current task's credentials as both the subject and object in the SELinux lockdown hook, selinux_lockdown(). Unfortunately that proved to be incorrect in a number of cases as the core kernel was calling the LSM lockdown hook in places where the credentials from the "current" task_struct were not the correct credentials to use in the SELinux access check. Attempts were made to resolve this by adding a credential pointer to the LSM lockdown hook as well as suggesting that the single hook be split into two: one for user tasks, one for kernel tasks; however neither approach was deemed acceptable by Linus. Faced with the prospect of either changing the subj/obj in the access check to a constant context (likely the kernel's label) or removing the SELinux lockdown check entirely, the SELinux community decided that removing the lockdown check was preferable. The supporting changes to the general LSM layer are left intact, this patch only removes the SELinux implementation. Acked-by: Ondrej Mosnacek Signed-off-by: Paul Moore

selinux: add support for the io_uring access controls

2021-09-20T02:40:32+00:00

This patch implements two new io_uring access controls, specifically support for controlling the io_uring "personalities" and IORING_SETUP_SQPOLL. Controlling the sharing of io_urings themselves is handled via the normal file/inode labeling and sharing mechanisms. The io_uring { override_creds } permission restricts which domains the subject domain can use to override it's own credentials. Granting a domain the io_uring { override_creds } permission allows it to impersonate another domain in io_uring operations. The io_uring { sqpoll } permission restricts which domains can create asynchronous io_uring polling threads. This is important from a security perspective as operations queued by this asynchronous thread inherit the credentials of the thread creator by default; if an io_uring is shared across process/domain boundaries this could result in one domain impersonating another. Controlling the creation of sqpoll threads, and the sharing of io_urings across processes, allow policy authors to restrict the ability of one domain to impersonate another via io_uring. As a quick summary, this patch adds a new object class with two permissions: io_uring { override_creds sqpoll } These permissions can be seen in the two simple policy statements below: allow domA_t domB_t : io_uring { override_creds }; allow domA_t self : io_uring { sqpoll }; Signed-off-by: Paul Moore

selinux: add proper NULL termination to the secclass_map permissions

2021-04-22T01:43:25+00:00

This patch adds the missing NULL termination to the "bpf" and "perf_event" object class permission lists. This missing NULL termination should really only affect the tools under scripts/selinux, with the most important being genheaders.c, although in practice this has not been an issue on any of my dev/test systems. If the problem were to manifest itself it would likely result in bogus permissions added to the end of the object class; thankfully with no access control checks using these bogus permissions and no policies defining these permissions the impact would likely be limited to some noise about undefined permissions during policy load.

selinux: teach SELinux about anonymous inodes

2021-01-14T22:38:10+00:00

This change uses the anon_inodes and LSM infrastructure introduced in the previous patches to give SELinux the ability to control anonymous-inode files that are created using the new anon_inode_getfd_secure() function. A SELinux policy author detects and controls these anonymous inodes by adding a name-based type_transition rule that assigns a new security type to anonymous-inode files created in some domain. The name used for the name-based transition is the name associated with the anonymous inode for file listings --- e.g., "[userfaultfd]" or "[perf_event]". Example: type uffd_t; type_transition sysadm_t sysadm_t : anon_inode uffd_t "[userfaultfd]"; allow sysadm_t uffd_t:anon_inode { create }; (The next patch in this series is necessary for making userfaultfd support this new interface. The example above is just for exposition.) Signed-off-by: Daniel Colascione Signed-off-by: Lokesh Gidra Signed-off-by: Paul Moore

capabilities: Introduce CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE

2020-07-19T18:14:42+00:00

This patch introduces CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE, a new capability facilitating checkpoint/restore for non-root users. Over the last years, The CRIU (Checkpoint/Restore In Userspace) team has been asked numerous times if it is possible to checkpoint/restore a process as non-root. The answer usually was: 'almost'. The main blocker to restore a process as non-root was to control the PID of the restored process. This feature available via the clone3 system call, or via /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid is unfortunately guarded by CAP_SYS_ADMIN. In the past two years, requests for non-root checkpoint/restore have increased due to the following use cases: * Checkpoint/Restore in an HPC environment in combination with a resource manager distributing jobs where users are always running as non-root. There is a desire to provide a way to checkpoint and restore long running jobs. * Container migration as non-root * We have been in contact with JVM developers who are integrating CRIU into a Java VM to decrease the startup time. These checkpoint/restore applications are not meant to be running with CAP_SYS_ADMIN. We have seen the following workarounds: * Use a setuid wrapper around CRIU: See https://github.com/FredHutch/slurm-examples/blob/master/checkpointer/lib/checkpointer/checkpointer-suid.c * Use a setuid helper that writes to ns_last_pid. Unfortunately, this helper delegation technique is impossible to use with clone3, and is thus prone to races. See https://github.com/twosigma/set_ns_last_pid * Cycle through PIDs with fork() until the desired PID is reached: This has been demonstrated to work with cycling rates of 100,000 PIDs/s See https://github.com/twosigma/set_ns_last_pid * Patch out the CAP_SYS_ADMIN check from the kernel * Run the desired application in a new user and PID namespace to provide a local CAP_SYS_ADMIN for controlling PIDs. This technique has limited use in typical container environments (e.g., Kubernetes) as /proc is typically protected with read-only layers (e.g., /proc/sys) for hardening purposes. Read-only layers prevent additional /proc mounts (due to proc's SB_I_USERNS_VISIBLE property), making the use of new PID namespaces limited as certain applications need access to /proc matching their PID namespace. The introduced capability allows to: * Control PIDs when the current user is CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE capable for the corresponding PID namespace via ns_last_pid/clone3. * Open files in /proc/pid/map_files when the current user is CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE capable in the root namespace, useful for recovering files that are unreachable via the file system such as deleted files, or memfd files. See corresponding selftest for an example with clone3().

bpf, capability: Introduce CAP_BPF

2020-05-15T15:29:41+00:00

Split BPF operations that are allowed under CAP_SYS_ADMIN into combination of CAP_BPF, CAP_PERFMON, CAP_NET_ADMIN. For backward compatibility include them in CAP_SYS_ADMIN as well. The end result provides simple safety model for applications that use BPF: - to load tracing program types BPF_PROG_TYPE_{KPROBE, TRACEPOINT, PERF_EVENT, RAW_TRACEPOINT, etc} use CAP_BPF and CAP_PERFMON - to load networking program types BPF_PROG_TYPE_{SCHED_CLS, XDP, SK_SKB, etc} use CAP_BPF and CAP_NET_ADMIN There are few exceptions from this rule: - bpf_trace_printk() is allowed in networking programs, but it's using tracing mechanism, hence this helper needs additional CAP_PERFMON if networking program is using this helper. - BPF_F_ZERO_SEED flag for hash/lru map is allowed under CAP_SYS_ADMIN only to discourage production use. - BPF HW offload is allowed under CAP_SYS_ADMIN. - bpf_probe_write_user() is allowed under CAP_SYS_ADMIN only. CAPs are not checked at attach/detach time with two exceptions: - loading BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB is allowed for unprivileged users, hence CAP_NET_ADMIN is required at attach time. - flow_dissector detach doesn't check prog FD at detach, hence CAP_NET_ADMIN is required at detach time. CAP_SYS_ADMIN is required to iterate BPF objects (progs, maps, links) via get_next_id command and convert them to file descriptor via GET_FD_BY_ID command. This restriction guarantees that mutliple tasks with CAP_BPF are not able to affect each other. That leads to clean isolation of tasks. For example: task A with CAP_BPF and CAP_NET_ADMIN loads and attaches a firewall via bpf_link. task B with the same capabilities cannot detach that firewall unless task A explicitly passed link FD to task B via scm_rights or bpffs. CAP_SYS_ADMIN can still detach/unload everything. Two networking user apps with CAP_SYS_ADMIN and CAP_NET_ADMIN can accidentely mess with each other programs and maps. Two networking user apps with CAP_NET_ADMIN and CAP_BPF cannot affect each other. CAP_NET_ADMIN + CAP_BPF allows networking programs access only packet data. Such networking progs cannot access arbitrary kernel memory or leak pointers. bpftool, bpftrace, bcc tools binaries should NOT be installed with CAP_BPF and CAP_PERFMON, since unpriv users will be able to read kernel secrets. But users with these two permissions will be able to use these tracing tools. CAP_PERFMON is least secure, since it allows kprobes and kernel memory access. CAP_NET_ADMIN can stop network traffic via iproute2. CAP_BPF is the safest from security point of view and harmless on its own. Having CAP_BPF and/or CAP_NET_ADMIN is not enough to write into arbitrary map and if that map is used by firewall-like bpf prog. CAP_BPF allows many bpf prog_load commands in parallel. The verifier may consume large amount of memory and significantly slow down the system. Existing unprivileged BPF operations are not affected. In particular unprivileged users are allowed to load socket_filter and cg_skb program types and to create array, hash, prog_array, map-in-map map types.

capabilities: Introduce CAP_PERFMON to kernel and user space

2020-04-16T15:19:06+00:00

Introduce the CAP_PERFMON capability designed to secure system performance monitoring and observability operations so that CAP_PERFMON can assist CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability in its governing role for performance monitoring and observability subsystems. CAP_PERFMON hardens system security and integrity during performance monitoring and observability operations by decreasing attack surface that is available to a CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileged process [2]. Providing the access to system performance monitoring and observability operations under CAP_PERFMON capability singly, without the rest of CAP_SYS_ADMIN credentials, excludes chances to misuse the credentials and makes the operation more secure. Thus, CAP_PERFMON implements the principle of least privilege for performance monitoring and observability operations (POSIX IEEE 1003.1e: 2.2.2.39 principle of least privilege: A security design principle that states that a process or program be granted only those privileges (e.g., capabilities) necessary to accomplish its legitimate function, and only for the time that such privileges are actually required) CAP_PERFMON meets the demand to secure system performance monitoring and observability operations for adoption in security sensitive, restricted, multiuser production environments (e.g. HPC clusters, cloud and virtual compute environments), where root or CAP_SYS_ADMIN credentials are not available to mass users of a system, and securely unblocks applicability and scalability of system performance monitoring and observability operations beyond root and CAP_SYS_ADMIN use cases. CAP_PERFMON takes over CAP_SYS_ADMIN credentials related to system performance monitoring and observability operations and balances amount of CAP_SYS_ADMIN credentials following the recommendations in the capabilities man page [1] for CAP_SYS_ADMIN: "Note: this capability is overloaded; see Notes to kernel developers, below." For backward compatibility reasons access to system performance monitoring and observability subsystems of the kernel remains open for CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileged processes but CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability usage for secure system performance monitoring and observability operations is discouraged with respect to the designed CAP_PERFMON capability. Although the software running under CAP_PERFMON can not ensure avoidance of related hardware issues, the software can still mitigate these issues following the official hardware issues mitigation procedure [2]. The bugs in the software itself can be fixed following the standard kernel development process [3] to maintain and harden security of system performance monitoring and observability operations.

security,lockdown,selinux: implement SELinux lockdown

2019-12-09T22:53:58+00:00

Implement a SELinux hook for lockdown. If the lockdown module is also enabled, then a denial by the lockdown module will take precedence over SELinux, so SELinux can only further restrict lockdown decisions. The SELinux hook only distinguishes at the granularity of integrity versus confidentiality similar to the lockdown module, but includes the full lockdown reason as part of the audit record as a hint in diagnosing what triggered the denial. To support this auditing, move the lockdown_reasons[] string array from being private to the lockdown module to the security framework so that it can be used by the lsm audit code and so that it is always available even when the lockdown module is disabled. Note that the SELinux implementation allows the integrity and confidentiality reasons to be controlled independently from one another. Thus, in an SELinux policy, one could allow operations that specify an integrity reason while blocking operations that specify a confidentiality reason. The SELinux hook implementation is stricter than the lockdown module in validating the provided reason value. Sample AVC audit output from denials: avc: denied { integrity } for pid=3402 comm="fwupd" lockdown_reason="/dev/mem,kmem,port" scontext=system_u:system_r:fwupd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:fwupd_t:s0 tclass=lockdown permissive=0 avc: denied { confidentiality } for pid=4628 comm="cp" lockdown_reason="/proc/kcore access" scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:test_lockdown_integrity_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:test_lockdown_integrity_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tclass=lockdown permissive=0 Signed-off-by: Stephen Smalley Reviewed-by: James Morris [PM: some merge fuzz do the the perf hooks] Signed-off-by: Paul Moore

perf_event: Add support for LSM and SELinux checks

2019-10-17T19:31:55+00:00

In current mainline, the degree of access to perf_event_open(2) system call depends on the perf_event_paranoid sysctl. This has a number of limitations: 1. The sysctl is only a single value. Many types of accesses are controlled based on the single value thus making the control very limited and coarse grained. 2. The sysctl is global, so if the sysctl is changed, then that means all processes get access to perf_event_open(2) opening the door to security issues. This patch adds LSM and SELinux access checking which will be used in Android to access perf_event_open(2) for the purposes of attaching BPF programs to tracepoints, perf profiling and other operations from userspace. These operations are intended for production systems. 5 new LSM hooks are added: 1. perf_event_open: This controls access during the perf_event_open(2) syscall itself. The hook is called from all the places that the perf_event_paranoid sysctl is checked to keep it consistent with the systctl. The hook gets passed a 'type' argument which controls CPU, kernel and tracepoint accesses (in this context, CPU, kernel and tracepoint have the same semantics as the perf_event_paranoid sysctl). Additionally, I added an 'open' type which is similar to perf_event_paranoid sysctl == 3 patch carried in Android and several other distros but was rejected in mainline [1] in 2016. 2. perf_event_alloc: This allocates a new security object for the event which stores the current SID within the event. It will be useful when the perf event's FD is passed through IPC to another process which may try to read the FD. Appropriate security checks will limit access. 3. perf_event_free: Called when the event is closed. 4. perf_event_read: Called from the read(2) and mmap(2) syscalls for the event. 5. perf_event_write: Called from the ioctl(2) syscalls for the event. [1] https://lwn.net/Articles/696240/ Since Peter had suggest LSM hooks in 2016 [1], I am adding his Suggested-by tag below. To use this patch, we set the perf_event_paranoid sysctl to -1 and then apply selinux checking as appropriate (default deny everything, and then add policy rules to give access to domains that need it). In the future we can remove the perf_event_paranoid sysctl altogether.
