ipc/msg: introduce msgctl(MSG_STAT_ANY)

2018-04-11T17:28:37+00:00

There is a permission discrepancy when consulting msq ipc object metadata between /proc/sysvipc/msg (0444) and the MSG_STAT shmctl command. The later does permission checks for the object vs S_IRUGO. As such there can be cases where EACCESS is returned via syscall but the info is displayed anyways in the procfs files. While this might have security implications via info leaking (albeit no writing to the msq metadata), this behavior goes way back and showing all the objects regardless of the permissions was most likely an overlook - so we are stuck with it. Furthermore, modifying either the syscall or the procfs file can cause userspace programs to break (ie ipcs). Some applications require getting the procfs info (without root privileges) and can be rather slow in comparison with a syscall -- up to 500x in some reported cases for shm. This patch introduces a new MSG_STAT_ANY command such that the msq ipc object permissions are ignored, and only audited instead. In addition, I've left the lsm security hook checks in place, as if some policy can block the call, then the user has no other choice than just parsing the procfs file.

ipc/sem: introduce semctl(SEM_STAT_ANY)

ipc/shm: introduce shmctl(SHM_STAT_ANY)

2018-04-11T17:28:37+00:00

Patch series "sysvipc: introduce STAT_ANY commands", v2. The following patches adds the discussed (see [1]) new command for shm as well as for sems and msq as they are subject to the same discrepancies for ipc object permission checks between the syscall and via procfs. These new commands are justified in that (1) we are stuck with this semantics as changing syscall and procfs can break userland; and (2) some users can benefit from performance (for large amounts of shm segments, for example) from not having to parse the procfs interface. Once merged, I will submit the necesary manpage updates. But I'm thinking something like: : diff --git a/man2/shmctl.2 b/man2/shmctl.2 : index 7bb503999941..bb00bbe21a57 100644 : --- a/man2/shmctl.2 : +++ b/man2/shmctl.2 : @@ -41,6 +41,7 @@ : .\" 2005-04-25, mtk -- noted aberrant Linux behavior w.r.t. new : .\" attaches to a segment that has already been marked for deletion. : .\" 2005-08-02, mtk: Added IPC_INFO, SHM_INFO, SHM_STAT descriptions. : +.\" 2018-02-13, dbueso: Added SHM_STAT_ANY description. : .\" : .TH SHMCTL 2 2017-09-15 "Linux" "Linux Programmer's Manual" : .SH NAME : @@ -242,6 +243,18 @@ However, the : argument is not a segment identifier, but instead an index into : the kernel's internal array that maintains information about : all shared memory segments on the system. : +.TP : +.BR SHM_STAT_ANY " (Linux-specific)" : +Return a : +.I shmid_ds : +structure as for : +.BR SHM_STAT . : +However, the : +.I shm_perm.mode : +is not checked for read access for : +.IR shmid , : +resembing the behaviour of : +/proc/sysvipc/shm. : .PP : The caller can prevent or allow swapping of a shared : memory segment with the following \fIcmd\fP values: : @@ -287,7 +300,7 @@ operation returns the index of the highest used entry in the : kernel's internal array recording information about all : shared memory segments. : (This information can be used with repeated : -.B SHM_STAT : +.B SHM_STAT/SHM_STAT_ANY : operations to obtain information about all shared memory segments : on the system.) : A successful : @@ -328,7 +341,7 @@ isn't accessible. : \fIshmid\fP is not a valid identifier, or \fIcmd\fP : is not a valid command. : Or: for a : -.B SHM_STAT : +.B SHM_STAT/SHM_STAT_ANY : operation, the index value specified in : .I shmid : referred to an array slot that is currently unused.

ipc/smack: Tidy up from the change in type of the ipc security hooks

2018-03-27T20:53:57+00:00

Rename the variables shp, sma, msq to isp. As that is how the code already refers to those variables. Collapse smack_of_shm, smack_of_sem, and smack_of_msq into smack_of_ipc, as the three functions had become completely identical. Collapse smack_shm_alloc_security, smack_sem_alloc_security and smack_msg_queue_alloc_security into smack_ipc_alloc_security as the three functions had become identical. Collapse smack_shm_free_security, smack_sem_free_security and smack_msg_queue_free_security into smack_ipc_free_security as the three functions had become identical.

msg/security: Pass kern_ipc_perm not msg_queue into the msg_queue security hooks

2018-03-23T02:22:26+00:00

All of the implementations of security hooks that take msg_queue only access q_perm the struct kern_ipc_perm member. This means the dependencies of the msg_queue security hooks can be simplified by passing the kern_ipc_perm member of msg_queue. Making this change will allow struct msg_queue to become private to ipc/msg.c. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"
