Commit Message

Tetsuo Handa Feb. 6, 2024, 1:59 p.m. UTC
A regression caused by commit 978ffcbf00d8 ("execve: open the executable
file before doing anything else") has been fixed by commit 4759ff71f23e
("exec: Check __FMODE_EXEC instead of in_execve for LSMs") and commit
3eab830189d9 ("uselib: remove use of __FMODE_EXEC"). While fixing this
regression, Linus commented that we want to remove current->in_execve flag.

The current->in_execve flag was introduced by commit f9ce1f1cda8b ("Add
in_execve flag into task_struct.") when TOMOYO LSM was merged, and the
reason was explained in commit f7433243770c ("LSM adapter functions.").

In short, TOMOYO's design is not compatible with COW credential model
introduced in Linux 2.6.29, and the current->in_execve flag was added for
emulating security_bprm_free() hook which has been removed by introduction
of COW credential model.

security_task_alloc()/security_task_free() hooks have been removed by
commit f1752eec6145 ("CRED: Detach the credentials from task_struct"),
and these hooks have been revived by commit 1a2a4d06e1e9 ("security:
create task_free security callback") and commit e4e55b47ed9a ("LSM: Revive
security_task_alloc() hook and per "struct task_struct" security blob.").

But security_bprm_free() hook did not revive until now. Now that Linus
wants TOMOYO to stop carrying state across two independent execve() calls,
and TOMOYO can stop carrying state if a hook for restoring previous state
upon failed execve() call were provided, this patch revives the hook.

Since security_bprm_committing_creds() and security_bprm_committed_creds()
hooks are called when an execve() request succeeded, we don't need to call
security_bprm_free() hook when an execve() request succeeded. Therefore,
this patch adds security_execve_abort() hook which is called only when an
execve() request failed after successful prepare_bprm_creds() call.

If you wanted to mention the relevant commit where security_bprm_free()
was removed, it was a6f76f23d297 ("CRED: Make execve() take advantage
of copy-on-write credentials").

I don't have a problem with reinstating something like
security_bprm_free(), but I don't like the name security_execve_abort(),
especially given that it is being called from alloc_bprm() as well as
all of the execve code.  At the risk of bikeshedding this, I'd be much
happier if this hook were renamed to security_bprm_free() and the
hook's description explained that this hook is called when a linux_bprm
instance is being destroyed, after the bprm creds have been released,
and is intended to cleanup any internal LSM state associated with the
linux_bprm instance.

Are you okay with that?

Hmm, that will bring us back to v1 of this series.

v3 was based on Eric W. Biederman's suggestion

  If you aren't going to change your design your new hook should be:
          security_execve_revert(current);
  Or maybe:
          security_execve_abort(current);

  At least then it is based upon the reality that you plan to revert
  changes to current->security.  Saying anything about creds or bprm when
  you don't touch them, makes no sense at all.  Causing people to
  completely misunderstand what is going on, and making it more likely
  they will change the code in ways that will break TOMOYO.

Yeah, I'd agree with Eric on this: it's not about bprm freeing, it's
catching the execve failure. I think the name is accurate -- it mirrors
the abort_creds() call.

I'm sorry, but I would still much rather prefer security_bprm_free()
both to reflect the nature of the caller as well as to abstract away a
particular use case; this is also why I suggested a different hook
description for the function header block.

If you really want this to be focused on reverting the execvc changes
(I do agree with Eric about "revert" over "abort") then please move
this hook out of free_bprm() and into do_execveat_common() and
kernel_execve().

To quickly summarize, there are two paths forward that I believe are
acceptable from a LSM perspective, pick either one and send me an
updated patchset.

1. Rename the hook to security_bprm_free() and update the LSM hook
description as I mentioned earlier in this thread.

2. Rename the hook to security_execve_revert(), move it into the
execve related functions, and update the LSM hook description to
reflect that this hook is for reverting execve related changes to the
current task's internal LSM state beyond what is possible via the
credential hooks.

Hi Tetsuo, I just wanted to check on this and see if you've been able
to make any progress?

I'm fine with either approach. Just worrying that someone doesn't like
overhead of unconditionally calling security_bprm_free() hook.
If everyone is fine with below one, I'll post v4 patchset.

My guess is that based on the previous comments people are going to
prefer option #2 above, but we'll see what everyone says.  I did have
one comment, below ...
