Commit Message

Richard Guy Briggs Sept. 10, 2020, 3:01 p.m. UTC
When there are no audit rules registered, mandatory records (config,
etc.) are missing their accompanying records (syscall, proctitle, etc.).

This is due to audit context dummy set on syscall entry based on absence
of rules that signals that no other records are to be printed.

Clear the dummy bit if any record is generated.

The proctitle context and dummy checks are pointless since the
proctitle record will not be printed if no syscall records are printed.

The fds array is reset to -1 after the first syscall to indicate it
isn't valid any more, but was never set to -1 when the context was
allocated to indicate it wasn't yet valid.

The audit_inode* functions can be called without going through
getname_flags() or getname_kernel() that sets audit_names and cwd, so
set the cwd if it has not already been done so due to audit_names being
valid.

The LSM dump_common_audit_data() LSM_AUDIT_DATA_NET:AF_UNIX case was
missed with the ghak96 patch, so add that case here.

Thanks to bauen1 <j2468h@googlemail.com> for reporting LSM situations in
which context->cwd is not valid, inadvertantly fixed by the ghak96 patch.

Comments below, but can you elaborate on if any testing was done
beyond the audit-testsuite?

With the only caller being audit_log_start(), should this be moved to
kernel/audit.c?  I'm just not sure this is something we would ever
need (or want) to call from elsewhere, thoughts?

Hmm, I don't think this is going to work the way you are intending; I
believe this will always evaluate to true regardless of the state of
context->pwd.  If you look elsewhere in kernel/auditsc.c you will see
some examples of checking to see if context->pwd is valid (e.g.
_audit_getcwd() and audit_log_exit()).

I'm starting to wonder if audit is doing this wrong (it is audit after
all) ... why not just fetch the cwd in audit_log_exit() if there are
entries in the context->names_list?  The only time we care about
logging the working dir is when we actually have PATH records, right?
My initial thinking is that we can simplify a lot of code if we just
add a audit_getcwd() call in audit_log_exit() if the
context->names_list is not empty.  We should even be safe in the task
exit case as the fs info appears to get cleaned up *after*
audit_log_exit() is called.

Assuming we go this route, we can probably get rid of all the
audit_getcwd() calls outside of the audit code (e.g. the lsm_audit.c
code).  I guess we would need to make sure things still behave the
same for chdir(2), getcwd(2), etc. but even if we have to insert one
or two audit_getcwd() calls in that case we should still come out on
top (although I suspect the necessary calls are already being made).

Yes, it was tested with audit-testsuite and bauen1's reproducer

Yes, move it, or better yet just open code it.

Sorry for the ctx->pwd.dentry/mnt brainfart, the compiler *did*
complain.

Or just open code audit_getcwd() in audit_alloc_name() and kill all
audit_getcwd() calls since it is audit_names that is populated as the
result of a call to audit_alloc_name().

Sure.  It might also help to put a one-liner comment in there about why.

That begs the question: why did you submit the patch?  I don't want to

It looks like a diffstat ... ?  I'm guessing you meant to copy-n-paste
a diff here?

incorrectly, the first time.
