* perf: Disable monitoring on setuid processes for regular usersStephane Eranian2013-06-261-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There was a a bug in setup_new_exec(), whereby the test to disabled perf monitoring was not correct because the new credentials for the process were not yet committed and therefore the get_dumpable() test was never firing. The patch fixes the problem by moving the perf_event test until after the credentials are committed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | threadgroup_lock() takes signal->cred_guard_mutex to ensure that thread_group_leader() is stable. This doesn't look nice, the scope of this lock in do_execve() is huge. And as Dave pointed out this can lead to deadlock, we have the following dependencies: do_execve: cred_guard_mutex -> i_mutex cgroup_mount: i_mutex -> cgroup_mutex attach_task_by_pid: cgroup_mutex -> cred_guard_mutex Change de_thread() to take threadgroup_change_begin() around the switch-the-leader code and change threadgroup_lock() to avoid ->cred_guard_mutex. Note that de_thread() can't sleep with ->group_rwsem held, this can obviously deadlock with the exiting leader if the writer is active, so it does threadgroup_change_end() before schedule().

* | set_task_comm: kill the pointless memset() + wmb()Oleg Nesterov2013-04-301-10/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | set_task_comm() does memset() + wmb() before strlcpy(). This buys nothing and to add to the confusion, the comment is wrong. - We do not need memset() to be "safe from non-terminating string reads", the final char is always zero and we never change it. - wmb() is paired with nothing, it cannot prevent from printing the mixture of the old/new data unless the reader takes the lock.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On architectures where a pgd entry may be shared between user and kernel (e.g. ARM+LPAE), freeing page tables needs a ceiling other than 0. This patch introduces a generic USER_PGTABLES_CEILING that arch code can override. It is the responsibility of the arch code setting the ceiling to ensure the complete freeing of the page tables (usually in pgd_free()).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tricky problem is this check: if (i++ >= max) icc (mis)optimizes this check as: if (++i > max) The check now becomes a no-op since max is MAX_ARG_STRINGS (0x7FFFFFFF). This is "allowed" by the C standard, assuming i++ never overflows, because signed integer overflow is undefined behavior. This optimization effectively reverts the previous commit 362e6663ef23 ("exec.c, compat.c: fix count(), compat_count() bounds checking") that tries to fix the check. This patch simply moves ++ after the check.

| * exec: do not leave bprm->interp on stackKees Cook2012-12-201-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a series of scripts are executed, each triggering module loading via unprintable bytes in the script header, kernel stack contents can leak into the command line. Normally execution of binfmt_script and binfmt_misc happens recursively. However, when modules are enabled, and unprintable bytes exist in the bprm->buf, execution will restart after attempting to load matching binfmt modules. Unfortunately, the logic in binfmt_script and binfmt_misc does not expect to get restarted. They leave bprm->interp pointing to their local stack. This means on restart bprm->interp is left pointing into unused stack memory which can then be copied into the userspace argv areas. After additional study, it seems that both recursion and restart remains the desirable way to handle exec with scripts, misc, and modules. As such, we need to protect the changes to interp. This changes the logic to require allocation for any changes to the bprm->interp. To avoid adding a new kmalloc to every exec, the default value is left as-is. Only when passing through binfmt_script or binfmt_misc does an allocation take place.

| * | exec: use -ELOOP for max recursion depthKees Cook2012-12-171-5/+5
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To avoid an explosion of request_module calls on a chain of abusive scripts, fail maximum recursion with -ELOOP instead of -ENOEXEC. As soon as maximum recursion depth is hit, the error will fail all the way back up the chain, aborting immediately. This also has the side-effect of stopping the user's shell from attempting to reexecute the top-level file as a shell script. As seen in the dash source: if (cmd != path_bshell && errno == ENOEXEC) { *argv-- = cmd; *argv = cmd = path_bshell; goto repeat; } The above logic was designed for running scripts automatically that lacked the "#!" header, not to re-try failed recursion. On a legitimate -ENOEXEC, things continue to behave as the shell expects. Additionally, when tracking recursion, the binfmt handlers should not be involved. The recursion being tracked is the depth of calls through search_binary_handler(), so that function should be exclusively responsible for tracking the depth.

The user space interface is now complete. This set of changes adds support for unprivileged users to create user namespaces and as a user namespace root to create other namespaces. The tyranny of supporting suid root preventing unprivileged users from using cool new kernel features is broken. This set of changes completes the work on setns, adding support for the pid, user, mount namespaces. This set of changes includes a bunch of basic pid namespace cleanups/simplifications. Of particular significance is the rework of the pid namespace cleanup so it no longer requires sending out tendrils into all kinds of unexpected cleanup paths for operation. At least one case of broken error handling is fixed by this cleanup. The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been converted from regular files to magic symlinks which prevents incorrect caching by the VFS, ensuring the files always refer to the namespace the process is currently using and ensuring that the ptrace_mayaccess permission checks are always applied. The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been given stable inode numbers so it is now possible to see if different processes share the same namespaces. Through the David Miller's net tree are changes to relax many of the permission checks in the networking stack to allowing the user namespace root to usefully use the networking stack. Similar changes for the mount namespace and the pid namespace are coming through my tree. Two small changes to add user namespace support were commited here adn in David Miller's -net tree so that I could complete the work on the /proc/<pid>/ns/ files in this tree. Work remains to make it safe to build user namespaces and 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, ocfs2, and xfs so the Kconfig guard remains in place preventing that user namespaces from being built when any of those filesystems are enabled.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

* | mm: avoid taking rmap locks in move_ptes()Michel Lespinasse2012-10-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During mremap(), the destination VMA is generally placed after the original vma in rmap traversal order: in move_vma(), we always have new_pgoff >= vma->vm_pgoff, and as a result new_vma->vm_pgoff >= vma->vm_pgoff unless vma_merge() merged the new vma with an adjacent one. When the destination VMA is placed after the original in rmap traversal order, we can avoid taking the rmap locks in move_ptes(). Essentially, this reintroduces the optimization that had been disabled in "mm anon rmap: remove anon_vma_moveto_tail". The difference is that we don't try to impose the rmap traversal order; instead we just rely on things being in the desired order in the common case and fall back to taking locks in the uncommon case. Also we skip the i_mmap_mutex in addition to the anon_vma lock: in both cases, the vmas are traversed in increasing vm_pgoff order with ties resolved in tree insertion order.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change de_thread() to use KILLABLE rather than UNINTERRUPTIBLE while waiting for other threads. The only complication is that we should clear ->group_exit_task and ->notify_count before we return, and we should do this under tasklist_lock. -EAGAIN is used to match the initial signal_group_exit() check/return, it doesn't really matter. This fixes the (unlikely) race with coredump. de_thread() checks signal_group_exit() before it starts to kill the subthreads, but this can't help if another CLONE_VM (but non CLONE_THREAD) task starts the coredumping after de_thread() unlocks ->siglock. In this case the killed sub-thread can block in exit_mm() waiting for coredump_finish(), execing thread waits for that sub-thead, and the coredumping thread waits for execing thread. Deadlock.

Instead of introducing a suid_dumpable=3 mode and breaking all users of mode 2, this only disables the unsafe portion of mode 2 (writing to disk via relative path). Most users of mode 2 (e.g. Chrome OS) already use a core dump pipe handler, so this change will not break them. For the situations where a pipe handler is not defined but mode 2 is still active, crash dumps will only be written to fully qualified paths. If a relative path is defined (e.g. the default "core" pattern), dump attempts will trigger a printk yelling about the lack of a fully qualified path.

* | posix_types.h: Cleanup stale __NFDBITS and related definitionsJosh Boyer2012-07-261-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1). This uncovered an issue with the kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include <linux/types.h> after including <sys/select.h>. A build failure would be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 flags to gcc. It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely. The current in-kernel uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines. Given that, we'll continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda4f5f ("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused macros. Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.

It's horribly and utterly broken for at least the following reasons: - calling sync_mm_rss() from mmput() is fundamentally wrong, because there's absolutely no reason to believe that the task that does the mmput() always does it on its own VM. Example: fork, ptrace, /proc - you name it. - calling it *after* having done mmdrop() on it is doubly insane, since the mm struct may well be gone now. - testing mm against NULL before you call it is insane too, since a NULL mm there would have caused oopses long before. .. and those are just the three bugs I found before I decided to give up looking for me and revert it asap. I should have caught it before I even took it, but I trusted Andrew too much.

* mm: correctly synchronize rss-counters at exit/execKonstantin Khlebnikov2012-06-071-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mm->rss_stat counters have per-task delta: task->rss_stat. Before changing task->mm pointer the kernel must flush this delta with sync_mm_rss(). do_exit() already calls sync_mm_rss() to flush the rss-counters before committing the rss statistics into task->signal->maxrss, taskstats, audit and other stuff. Unfortunately the kernel does this before calling mm_release(), which can call put_user() for processing task->clear_child_tid. So at this point we can trigger page-faults and task->rss_stat becomes non-zero again. As a result mm->rss_stat becomes inconsistent and check_mm() will print something like this: | BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:1 val:-1 | BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:2 val:1 This patch moves sync_mm_rss() into mm_release(), and moves mm_release() out of do_exit() and calls it earlier. After mm_release() there should be no pagefaults.

Highlights: - Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe. - Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe. - All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial user namespace before they are processed. Removing the need to add an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared uids remains the same. - With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or better than it is today. - For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or operationally with the user namespace enabled. - The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1 billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code enabled. This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to 164ns per stat operation). - (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value. Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause entertaining failures in userspace. - If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails. I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and handle the case where setuid fails. - If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid. The LFS experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we can't map. - Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities.
