This implementation reverse shifts according to the user_ns belonging
to the mnt_ns.  So if the vfsmount has the newly introduced flag
MNT_SHIFT and the current user_ns is the same as the mount_ns->user_ns
then we shift back using the user_ns before committing to the
underlying filesystem.

For example, if a user_ns is created where interior (fake root, uid 0)
is mapped to kernel uid 100000 then writes from interior root normally
go to the filesystem at the kernel uid.  However, if MNT_SHIFT is set,
they will be shifted back to write at uid 0, meaning we can bind mount
real image filesystems to user_ns protected faker root.

In essence there are several things which have to be done for this to
occur safely.  Firstly for all operations on the filesystem, new
credentials have to be installed where fsuid and fsgid are set to the
*interior* values. Next all inodes used from the filesystem have to
have i_uid and i_gid shifted back to the kernel values and attributes
set from user space have to have ia_uid and ia_gid shifted from the
kernel values to the interior values.  The capability checks have to
be done using ns_capable against the kernel values, but the inode
capability checks have to be done against the shifted ids.

Since creating a new credential is a reasonably expensive proposition
and we have to shift and unshift many times during path walking, a
cached copy of the shifted credential is saved to a newly created
place in the task structure.  This serves the dual purpose of allowing
us to use a pre-prepared copy of the shifted credentials and also
allows us to recognise whenever the shift is actually in effect (the
cached shifted credential pointer being equal to the current_cred()
pointer).

To get this all to work, we have a check for the vfsmount flag and the
user_ns gating a shifting of the credentials over all user space
entries to filesystem functions.  In theory the path has to be present
everywhere we do this, so we can check the vfsmount flags.  However,
for lower level functions we can cheat this path check of vfsmount
simply to check whether a shifted credential is in effect or not to
gate things like the inode permission check, which means the path
doesn't have to be threaded all the way through the permission
checking functions.  if the credential is shifted check passes, we can
also be sure that the current user_ns is the same as the mnt->user_ns,
so we can use it and thus have no need of the struct mount at the
point of the shift.

Although the shift can be effected simply by executing
do_reconfigure_mnt with MNT_SHIFT in the flags, this patch only
contains the shifting mechanisms.  The follow on patch wires up the
user visible API for turning the flag on.

Must we really install new creds?
Maybe we just need to set/clear a SHIFTED flag on current creds?

i.e. instead of change_userns_creds(path)/revert_userns_creds()
how about start_shifted_creds(mnt)/end_shifted_creds().

and then cred_is_shifted() only checks the flag and no need for
all the cached creds mechanism.

current_fsuid()/current_fsgid() will take care of the shifting based on
the creds flag.

Also, you should consider placing a call to start_shifted/end_shifted
inside __mnt_want_write()/__mnt_drop_write().
This should automatically cover all writable fs ops  - including some that
you missed (setxattr).

Taking this a step further, perhaps it would make sense to wrap all readonly
fs ops with mnt_want_read()/mnt_drop_read() flavors.
Note that inode level already has a similar i_readcount access counter.

This could be used, for example, to provide a facility that is stronger than
MNT_DETACH, and weaker than filesystem "shutdown" ioctl, for blocking
new file opens (with openat()) on a mounted filesystem.

The point is, you add gating to vfs that is generic and not for single use
case (i.e. cred shifting).

Apologies in advance if  some of these ideas are ill advised.

Thanks,
Amir.

Well, the reason for doing it is that for uid/gid changes that's the
way everything else does it, so principle of least surprise.

However, there are two other cases where this doesn't work:

   1. inode uid/gid changes, which are compared against the real uid/gid 
   2. execution, where we need to bring the filesystem uid/gid to the
      exterior representation of the interior values for unprivileged
      execution to work.
   3. the capable_wrt_inode checks where we're usually checking if the
      inode uid/gid has an interior mapping, but since for shiftfs we're
      assuming inode uid/gid are interior we need to see if anything maps
      to them.
   4. the in_group_p checks to see whether we're in a group that's
      capable.

1. could be fixed by shifting uid/gid ... I just didn't think this was
a good idea.  2,3. can't be fixed because the direction of the check
needs to be reversed and 4 has to be done separately because group_info
 is a pointer to something that lives outside the credential.  Taking
the pointer, creating a new one and shifting every group is possible, I
just also wasn't sure if it was a wise thing to do.

So it is true, if current_fsuid/fsgid did the mapping, it would be a
fifth case above, but we'd have to be sure no-one ever used the bare
current_cred()->fsuid.  Auditing filesystems, it looks like there's
only one current case of this in namei.c:may_follow_link(), so I think
it could work ... but it's still a danger for other places, like
security module checks and things.

xattr handling wasn't really missed, I left it out because it was the
controversial case last time.  Should the interior root be able to set
xattrs?  I think the argument was tending towards the yes except
security. prefix ones last time so perhaps it is safe to reintroduce.

Unfortunately, read and write aren't the only operations where we need
a shift, there's also lookup (which doesn't require read or write). 
Now we could also go with mnt_want_lookup/mnt_drop_lookup or simply
keep the existing shift coding on the lookup path.

Of the two ideas, I think using a generic gate point, if we can find
it, is a definite winner because it programmatically identifies the
shift points.  I'm less enthused about moving the shift into
current_fsuid/fsgid because of the potential for stuff to go wrong and
because it's counter to how everything else is currently done, but I'll
let the filesystem experts weigh in on this one.  The good news is that
the two ideas aren't dependent on each other so either can be
implemented without the other.

Thanks, James, I definately would like to see shifting in the VFS
api.

I have a few practical concerns about this implementation, but my biggest
concern is more fundemental:  this again by design leaves littered about
the filesystem uid-0 owned files which were written by an untrusted user.

I would feel much better if you institutionalized having the origin
shifted.  For instance, take a squashfs for a container fs, shift it
so that fsuid 0 == hostuid 100000.  Mount that, with a marker saying
how it is shifted, then set 'shiftable'.  Now use that as a base for
allowing an unpriv user to shift.  If that user has subuid 200000 as
container uid 0, then its root will write files as uid 100000 in the
fs.  This isn't perfect, but I think something along these lines would
be far safer.

Two namespaces with different uid maps can share the filesystem as though
they both had the same uidmap.  (This currently is to me the most
interesting use case for shifing bind mounts)

If the user wants to tar up the result, they can do do in their own
namespace, resulting in uid 0 shown as uid 0.  If host root wants to
do so, they can umount it everywhere and use something like fuidshift.
Or, they can also create a namespace to do the shifting to uid 0 in tar.

My more practical concerns include: (1) once a userns has set a shiftable
bind mount to shift, if it then creates a new child userns, that ns
will not see (iiuc) see the fs as shifted.  (2) there seems to be no
good reason to stick to caching the cred for only one mnt, versus
having a per-userns hashtable of creds for shifted mnts.  Was that just
a temporary shortcut or did you intend it to stay that way?

Well, I think that's a consequence of my use case: using unmodified
container images with the user namespace.  We're starting to do IMA/EVM
signatures in our images, so shifted UID images aren't an option for us
.  Therefore I have to figure out a way of allowing an untrusted user
to write safely at UID zero.  For me that safety comes from strictly
corralling where they can write and making sure the container
orchestration system sets it up correctly.

OK, so I fully agree that if you're not doing integrity in the
container, then this is an option for you and whatever API gets
upstreamed should cope with that case.

So to push on the API a bit, what do you want?  The reverse along the
user_ns one I implemented is easy: a single flag tells you to map back
or not.  However, the implementation is phrased in terms of shifted
credentials, so as long as we know how to map, it can work for both our
use cases.  I think in plumbers you expressed interest in simply
passing the map to the mount rather than doing it via a user_ns; is
that still the case?

Actually, it will.  The shift is a property of the vfsmount (or
underlying struct mount), so if you create a new user_ns then a
mount_ns, the new mount_ns inherits the shift flag and you go back
along your new user_ns.  If you don't create a new mount_ns, you still
get the shift flag, but you're still being shifted along the parent
user_ns, not your new one.

Well, it was a demo of mechanism, but remember this cache is per thread
of execution.  Is there really going to be a use case where one thread
of execution traverses multiple user_ns's and so would need multiple
shifted credentials?  The current implementation could be backed by a
hashtable, but I really think it would only make sense if the creds
could be global, but they're not they're strictly thread specific
entities.

Isn't that a matter of convention?  You could ship, store, and measure
the files already shifted.  An OCI annotation could show the offset,
say 100000.

Now if any admin runs across this device noone will be tricked by the root
owned files.

Mount could conceivably look like:

	mount --bind --origin-uid 100000 --shift /proc/50/ns/user /src /dest

(the --shift idea coming from Tycho).  I'd prefer --origin to be another
user namespace fd, which I suppose some tool could easily set up, for
instance:

	pid1=`setup-userns-fd -m b:0:100000:65536`
	pid2=$(prepare a container userns)
	mount --bind --shift-origin=/proc/$pid1/ns/user \
		--shift-target=/proc/$pid2/ns/user /src /dest

You could presumably always skip the shift-origin to achieve what you're
doing now.

Oh I think I'm fine either way - I can always create a user_ns to match
the map I want.

We could, but it's the wrong way to look at it to tell a customer that
if they want us to run the image safely they have to modify it at the
build stage.  As a cloud service provider I want to make the statement
that I can run any customer image safely as long as it was built to
whatever standards the registry supports.  That has to include
integrity protected images.  And I have to be able to attest to a
customer that I'm running their image as part of the customer integrity
verification.

Perhaps you could go into what tricks you think will happen?  This is
clearly the thread model of using unmodified images you have which
might be different from the one I have.  My mitigation is basically
that as long as no tenant or unprivileged user can get at the unshifted
image, we're fine.

Just so we're clear --origin-uid <uid> means map back along the --shift 
user_ns but add this <uid> to whatever interior id the shift produces? 
I think that's fairly easy to parametrise and store in the bind mount,
yes.

Yes, if you're happy to have --shift-origin <uid> default to 0

I have to ask in the above, what is the point of the pid1 user_ns?  Do
you ever use pid1 for anything else? It looks like you were merely
creating it for the object of having it passed into the bind.  If
there's never any use for the --shift-origin <ns_fd> then I think I
agree that a bare number is a better abstraction.  Or are you thinking
we'll have use cases where a simple numeric addition won't serve and
our only user mechanism for complex parametrisation of the shift map is
a user_ns?

The other slight problem is that now the bind mount does need to
understand complex arguments, which it definitely doesn't today.  I'm
happy with extending fsconfig to bind, so it can do complex arguments
like this, but it sounds like others are dubious so doing the above
also depends on agreeing whatever extension we do to bind.

I suppose bind reconfigure could be yet another system call in the
open_tree/move_mount pantheon, which would also solve the remount with
different bind parameters problem with the new API.

The other thing I worry about is that is separating the shift_user_ns
from the mount_ns->user_ns a potential security hole?  For the
unprivileged operation of this, I like the idea of enforcing them to be
the same so the tenant can only shift back along a user_ns they're
operating in.  The problem being that the kernel has no way of
validating that the passed in <ns_fd> is within the subuid/subgid range
of the unprivileged user, so we're trusting that the user can't get
access to the ns_fd of a user_ns outside that range.

I think it comes down to whether there's an actual use for the user_ns
you create.  It seems a bit wasteful merely to create a user_ns for the
purpose of passing something that can also be simply parametrised if
there's no further use for that user_ns.

Makes sense.  And in your environment, you can easily partition off a
place (or an otherwise unused namespace) in which to mount these images.
So using a null mapping for the 'origin' would make sense there.

But in cases where what you want is a single directory shared by several
containers with disjoint uid mappings, where this is the only directory
they share - be it for logs, or data, etc, and be it by infrastructure
containers in the course of running a cluster or a set of students
manipulating shared data with their otherwise completely unprivileged
containers - we can make the shared directory a lot less of a minefield.

I don't like to use my own underactive imagination to decide what an
attacker - or accidental fool - might be likely to do.  But simply
writing a setuid-root shell script called 'ls' will probably hit
*someone* who against all advice has . at the front of their path.

(Don't look at me like that - it's 2020 and we still have flashy
respectable-looking websites encouraging people to wget | sudo /bin/sh)

Are you sure?  What if $package accidentally ships a broken cronjob
that tries to run ./bin/sh -c "logger $(date)" ?

Yeah I think that's fine.  I'd expect any distro which tries to configure
this for easy consumption to allocate a 65k subuid range for 'images',
and set a default shift-origin under /etc which 'mount' would consult,
or something like that.  The kernel almost certainly would default to 0.

I don't think so.  People can have some pretty convoluted uid mappings
right now, but presumably the images we are talking about would be
the result of an rsync or tar *in* such a namespace.  Though again, limited
imagination and all that.  There *may* be very good use cases for a more
complicated mapping.

I guess I figured we would have privileged task in the owning namespace
(presumably init_user_ns) mark a bind mount as shiftable (maybe
specifying who is allowed to bind mount it using the mapped root uid,
analogous to how the namespaced file capabilities are identified) and
then the ns_fd of the task doing the "mount --bind --shift" (which is
privileged inside the ns_fd userns) would be used, unmodified (or even
modified, since whatever uid args the task would pass would have to be
valid inside the mounting userns)

So something like:

1. On the host:

   mount --bind --mark-shiftable-by 200000 --origin-uid 100000 /data/group1

2. In the container which has its root mapped to host uid 200000

   mount --bind --shift /data/group1 /data/group1

Oh - I consider the detail of whether we pass a userid or userns nsfd as
more of an implementation detail which we can hash out after the more
general shift-mount api is decided upon.  Anyway, passing nsfds just has
a cool factor :)

Well, the customer signs the image, which is why we can't alter it. 
The idea would be that the CSP does the measurement and the provision
of the running dashboard but that the customer could also do it
themselves if they didn't trust the CSP ... or just wanted to verify
the CSP integrity tool was working correctly.

Sure ... I didn't say you didn't have a use case.   I was just pointing
out that I have a write at uid 0 one.  I'm happy to implement a scheme
that covers both.

The suid/sgid is already on my list of potential threats.  It's
mitigated by never letting the tenant get access to where the unshifted
image is unpacked.

Person with root access being stupid is definitely a problem, but it's

You mean sends a message to the systemd log socket?  That's usually
intercepted to go into the per-container Kafka receiver (or whatever
else the CSP uses for logging).

Oh, no ... we need to get the terminogy straight.  The kuid, as in the
uid the kernel sees, is what I think of as the exterior uid.  The uid
the container tenant thinks they see is the interior one.

So let's say the user_ns maps interior 0 to exterior 20,000 but that
the image begins at 100,000.  You have an --origin-uid of 100000 in the
above, I believe.  How we get there is the user as sudo root writes a
file "f".  "f" has interior owner 0.  However, the exterior owner,
which is what usually gets written, as 20,000.  Doing the shift I'd
take the 20,000; shift back along the tenant user_ns to get 0 and then
add the 100,000 offset to end up writing to the image at 100,000

That would mean a bunch of different user_ns could be set up all
shifting back to the same 100,000 and thus share the image.

Would it be OK to implement the simple now and add the complex later if
it ever materializes.  Provided we can agree on a way of passing extra
arguments to bind, we have the freedom to add stuff later.

Yes, that's what I've got today in the prototype.  It mirrors the
original shiftfs mechanism.  However, I have also heard people say they
want a permanent mark, like an xattr for this.

We can certainly do that, but it does mean one mark (i.e. one mount
point, so /data/group<n>) per user_ns at different uids.  A simpler
alternative may be to do the mark as

mount --bind --mark-shiftable --origin-uid 100000 /data/group

And regulate access to /data/group by the usual filesystem ACL.  Then
anyone who can get at /data/group can do

mount --bind --shift /data/group1 /my/place/for/the/image

I tend to think that ACL security is sufficient, since it's what
everyone is used to but I don't object to having the additional origin
check as well.

Please, no. mount() failures are already hard to reason about, I would
rather not add another temporary (or worse, permanent) non-obvious
failure mode.

What if we make shifted bind mounts always readonly? That will force
people to use an overlay (or something else) on top, but they probably
want to do that anyway so they can avoid tainting the original
container image with writes.

It's not just the cool factor: if you're doing this, it's presumably
because you want to use it with a container in a user namespace.
Specifying the same parameters twice leaves room for error, causing
CVEs and more work.

I'm not particularly bothered either way ... although using xattrs
always seems to end up biting us for nesting, so I wasn't wildly
enthusiastic about it.

That really causes problems for the mutable (non-docker) container use
case which is pretty much the way I always use containers.  Who wants
to bother with overlayfs when their image is expected to mutate: it's
just a huge hassle.

It depends.  For the offset, we agreed there's no extant user_ns, so
you have to create one specifically.  That leads to a more error prone
setup with no actual checking benefit.

For the shift_ns, it depends whether you want one mount point per
tenant, in which case the tenant user_ns might be a useful check, or
one mount point with an ACL in which case you just backshift along the
binding tenant user_ns.
