Commit Message

Stefan Berger Feb. 6, 2023, 2:02 p.m. UTC
Introduce the IMA_NS in Kconfig for IMA namespace enablement.

Enable the lazy initialization of an IMA namespace when a user mounts
SecurityFS and writes '1' into IMA's 'active' securityfs file. A
user_namespace will now get a pointer to an ima_namespace and therefore
implement get_current_ns() for the namespacing case that returns this
pointer. Use get_current_ns() in those places that require access to the
current IMA namespace. In some places, primarily those related to
IMA-appraisal and changes to file attributes, keep the pointer to
init_ima_ns, since there flags related to file measurements may be
affected, which are not supported in IMA namespaces, yet.

Before using the ima_namespace pointer test it with ns_is_active()
to check whether it is NULL and whether the ima_namespace is active.
If it's not active, it cannot be used, yet. Therefore, return early
from those functions that may now get either get a NULL pointer from
this call or where ns->active is still 0. The init_ima_ns is always
set to be active, thus passing the check.

Implement ima_ns_from_file() for SecurityFS-related files where we can
now get the IMA namespace via the user namespace pointer associated
with the superblock of the SecurityFS filesystem instance.

Return -EACCES to IMA's securityfs files, except for the 'active' file,
until the IMA namespace has been set to active.

Switch access to userns->ima_ns to use acquire/release semantics to ensure
that a newly created ima_namespace structure is fully visible upon access.

Only emit the kernel log message 'policy update completed' for the
init_ima_ns.

When parsing an IMA policy rule use the user namespace of the opener
to translate uid and gid values to kernel values rather than the user
namespace of the writer.

Gate access to ima_appraise variable to init_ima_ns in ima_load_data()
and ima_write_policy().

Gate access to temp_ima_appraise variable to init_ima_ns in
ima_delete_rules().

In ima_file_free remove the check on the ima_policy_flag so that
ima_check_last_writer() is called if there's an iint and therefore a
namespace is interested in the file.

Only update the xattr hash if a namespace has a hash policy.

Gate setting of AUDIT rules to only allow host root with CAP_WRITE_AUDIT
inside a namespace or host root with CAP_WRITE_AUDIT entering a namespace
to set them. This prevents normal users, who created an IMA namespace and
have CAP_WRITE_AUDIT in their user namespace, from setting these rules
and flooding the host's audit log.

Automatically select IMA_CONFIG_READ when selecting IMA_NS.

Signed-off-by: Stefan Berger <stefanb@linux.ibm.com>

---
v15:
 - Require CAP_AUDIT_WRITE instead of CAP_SYS_ADMIN for host root to
   set IMA audit rules in an IMA namespace

v12:
 - replace set_bit() by clear_bit() to clear IMA_NS_ACTIVE

v11:
 - Remove check on ima_policy_flag so that any namespace modifying a
   file will cause re-auditing of a file if there's an existing iint
 - Only update the hash on a file if a namespace has a hash policy
 - Use ima_ns_from_user_ns() in ima_ns_from_file()
 - Kconfig: Select IMA_READ_POLICY when IMA_NS is selected

v10:
 - dropped ima_ns_to_user_ns(); using current_user_ns() instead
 - Pass user_namespace of file opener into ima_parse_rule and propagate
   this parameter back all the way to the initial caller in the chain
 - Gate access to ima_appraise to init_ima_ns in ima_write_policy()

v9:
 - ima_post_key_create_or_update: Only handle key if in init_ima_ns
 - Removed ns == NULL checks where user_namespace is now passed
 - Defer setting of user_ns->ima_ns until end of ima_fs_ns_init();
   required new ima_free_imans() and new user_ns_set_ima_ns()
 - Only emit log message 'policy update completed' for init_ima_ns
 - Introduce get_current_ns() only in this patch
 - Check for ns == &init_ima_ns in ima_load_data()
