Commit Message

Petr Lautrbach Feb. 10, 2020, 6:23 p.m. UTC
get_ordered_context_list() code used to ask the kernel to compute the complete
set of reachable contexts using /sys/fs/selinux/user aka
security_compute_user(). This set can be so huge so that it doesn't fit into a
kernel page and security_compute_user() fails. Even if it doesn't fail,
get_ordered_context_list() throws away the vast majority of the returned
contexts because they don't match anything in
/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/default_contexts or
/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/users/

get_ordered_context_list() is rewritten to compute set of contexts based on
/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/users/ and
/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/default_contexts files and to return only valid
contexts, using security_check_context(), from this set.

Fixes: https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux/issues/28

v4 changes:

- error in context_range_set() is fatal now
- added another 3 context_free(usercon)
- increased usercon_len

Thanks Stephen and Ondrej for all the reviews.

Feel free to make this a fatal error too; I can't see a valid scenario 
for it.  The only cases where context_new() can fail are a syntactically 
invalid context or out of memory.

>   		}

I think we could lift the free(usercon_str); to here or even immediately 
after the context_new() if we stopped including it in the error message 
above.  Then we don't have to repeat it below multiple times.

Still need a context_free(usercon); here in order to avoid leaking its 
memory.

My idea was that if there's a wrong entry, it would be better to skip it
and try to parse and use the rest.

I'd like to preserve this string in the error message as it can help users with
investigation problem when there's a wrong syntax or typo.

I'm sorry I missed it. It will be fixed in the next patch version (hopefully)
