Commit Message

Casey Schaufler June 26, 2019, 7:22 p.m. UTC
Create a new entry "display" in /proc/.../attr for controlling
which LSM security information is displayed for a process.
The name of an active LSM that supplies hooks for human readable
data may be written to "display" to set the value. The name of
the LSM currently in use can be read from "display".
At this point there can only be one LSM capable of display
active.

IIUC, presently, at the end of the entire series,

1) Any process can change its display attribute to any enabled security 
module, and no security module can veto that change.

2) The display attribute is inherited across fork and exec, even execs 
that change credentials, and again no security module has control over 
the inheritance of this attribute.

3) Setting the display attribute affects more than just the contexts 
read or written by the process itself:
- Contexts reported in audit logs,
- Contexts passed across binder (generated in sender context, delivered 
to receiver),
- Contexts passed to NFS servers for new files,
- Contexts returned by NFS servers for existing files,
- Netlink-related contexts (?possibly generated in sender context rather 
than receiver context?),
- This list may not be complete.

4) A security_secid_to_secctx() in one process' context (e.g. sender) or 
with one display value followed later by a security_secctx_to_secid() 
call in a different process' context (e.g. receiver) or with a different 
display value may ask a different security module to perform the reverse 
translation of the context than the forward translation.

Is that correct?  If so, it seems problematic.

That is correct. If a security module could hoard the display it
could prevent user space from functioning in a multiple module
environment.

Also correct. Scripts don't work otherwise.

Any of which can be changed should a more rational behavior be proposed.
One possibility is to use lsm='value',lsm='value' encoding for internal
communications, but there's been considerable resistance to anything
like that.

Do you have an example of where this might happen?
Contexts are rarely used within the kernel. The usual
behavior is to generate them, send them out to user space,
and delete them. They get cached in some networking code,
but not in cases where more than one (existing) security
module will ever use them. Binder may be an exception, but
only SELinux (currently) supports binder.


> Is that correct?  If so, it seems problematic.

Balancing backward compatibility with new behavior is hard!
What would you suggest for audit logs? Should we put all LSM
data in every record? Is NFS a concern for anyone not using
SELinux?

There is no user space that uses display, and it's going
to take some time to work out all the kinks before we even
think about teaching systemd about it.

It should be noted that this is also just for legacy, we agreed
last year that smack and apparmor would move to new none shared
interfaces by default, and ideally other LSMs would as well.
Smack has already added its process dir and apparmor has its
in apparmor-next

The display LSM allows for the current interfaces to be used
in a stacking situation for things like LSM in legacy container.

This is the part of the patchset that I am least happy with but
it is a hard problem, and so far using display has been the only
option that has been even sort of agreed to.


>> 4) A security_secid_to_secctx() in one process' context (e.g. sender) or with one display value followed later by a security_secctx_to_secid() call in a different process' context (e.g. receiver) or with a different display value may ask a different security module to perform the reverse translation of the context than the forward translation.

If we could it would be better, but again how to do it. Every
option presented has been rejected.

Yes. Just because it isn't currently used doesn't mean it isn't
a concern or desired.

I'm not even sure we want to teach systemd et al. about it,
it would be far better to teach them about
  /proc/*/attr/{smack,apparmor,...}/*


But yes its going to take time to get the userspace updated.

It's a security hole waiting to happen. Unprivileged caller sets its
display value to Smack on a mostly SELinux system that happens to
enable Smack too, then exec's a credential-changing SELinux-aware
program that uses one of the libselinux APIs to set one of the
/proc/self/attr attributes to a different SELinux context. Due to the
change in display, the SELinux-aware program instead ends up setting
one of the Smack attributes and therefore the desired SELinux context
is never applied to the process or file or socket or whatever.

These are also security holes waiting to happen.  Processes can use it
to hide their SELinux contexts from the audit logs, forge different
SELinux contexts on binder IPC, forge file contexts to which they have
no SELinux permissions on new files, ... All they need is stacking to
be enabled and one other module that helpfully lets them set attribute
values that look like SELinux contexts, and then they can set those
and switch their display at the right time.

Haven't looked but I don't like the asymmetry of the interface.
Doesn't matter that only SELinux supports binder if  you ever want any
other security module other than SELinux enabled at the same time as
SELinux.

Yes to all on audit if stacking is going to be real.  And yes, I think
other security modules will care about NFS if they are serious.

That doesn't make it acceptable to introduce a mechanism that weakens
security now.

The credential-changing SELinux-aware program is getting
invoked by an unprivileged, Smack aware program? Would anyone
expect that to be a good idea? I'll admit it could happen,
but setting the Smack label of your SELinux-aware program
(which will need CAP_MAC_ADMIN, BTW) to "system_u:system_r:wheehee_t"
is unlikely to result in anything other than your SELinux-aware
program getting very frustrated. In the other direction, a
Smack-aware program that trys to set its SELinux context to "^"
is going to fail by SELinux policy. While I am willing to accept
that it is possible that there is a way to exploit this, it
would require convoluted SELinux and Smack policies. Anyone
who has reason to use a combination of Smack and SELinux on
a real system is already signing up for more configuration
headaches than I would wish on anyone.
 
I have strongly advocated addition of /proc/.../attr/
subdirectories for all LSMs, and that all user space migrate
to using them. /proc/.../attr/selinux/current would not be
affected by the display setting. We know, and have known for
years that so long as "current" is shared there will be this
sort of problem.

What would you propose as a more rational behavior?
Seriously, I could use some help here.

Binder needs another look then.

I would love to get feedback from the audit maintainers about
how they would like the multiple LSM data formatted.

NFS is ... challenging. It was supposed to work with Smack
when it went in, but to the best of my understanding never
actually demonstrated.

Agreed in principle, not necessarily in detail.

Agreed.

There must better way to approach this, somehow...

It not like I haven't proposed a number of mechanisms!
The "display" mechanism has the best backward compatibility
story, at the cost of being awkward/dangerous in the face of
sophisticated user space environments. A combined string
(smack='System",AppArmor='unconfined') sucks at compatibility,
but provides the best information.

Right now I'm looking at a way to prevent internal confusion.
I think that may be possible.

I'll point out that lib<lsm> has the option of verifying
the display before doing scary writes, but that's a lot of
work that no one is looking forward to.
