Pull namespace changes from Eric Biederman: "This is an assorted mishmash of small cleanups, enhancements and bug fixes. The major theme is user namespace mount restrictions. nsown_capable is killed as it encourages not thinking about details that need to be considered. A very hard to hit pid namespace exiting bug was finally tracked and fixed. A couple of cleanups to the basic namespace infrastructure. Finally there is an enhancement that makes per user namespace capabilities usable as capabilities, and an enhancement that allows the per userns root to nice other processes in the user namespace" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: userns: Kill nsown_capable it makes the wrong thing easy capabilities: allow nice if we are privileged pidns: Don't have unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) imply CLONE_THREAD userns: Allow PR_CAPBSET_DROP in a user namespace. namespaces: Simplify copy_namespaces so it is clear what is going on. pidns: Fix hang in zap_pid_ns_processes by sending a potentially extra wakeup sysfs: Restrict mounting sysfs userns: Better restrictions on when proc and sysfs can be mounted vfs: Don't copy mount bind mounts of /proc//ns/mnt between namespaces kernel/nsproxy.c: Improving a snippet of code. proc: Restrict mounting the proc filesystem vfs: Lock in place mounts from more privileged users

userns: Kill nsown_capable it makes the wrong thing easy

2013-08-31T06:44:11Z

nsown_capable is a special case of ns_capable essentially for just CAP_SETUID and CAP_SETGID. For the existing users it doesn't noticably simplify things and from the suggested patches I have seen it encourages people to do the wrong thing. So remove nsown_capable.

Rename nsproxy.pid_ns to nsproxy.pid_ns_for_children

2013-08-27T17:52:52Z

nsproxy.pid_ns is *not* the task's pid namespace. The name should clarify that. This makes it more obvious that setns on a pid namespace is weird -- it won't change the pid namespace shown in procfs. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski Reviewed-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

pid: Handle the exit of a multi-threaded init.

2013-03-26T10:41:23Z

When a multi-threaded init exits and the initial thread is not the last thread to exit the initial thread hangs around as a zombie until the last thread exits. In that case zap_pid_ns_processes needs to wait until there are only 2 hashed pids in the pid namespace not one. v2. Replace thread_pid_vnr(me) == 1 with the test thread_group_leader(me) as suggested by Oleg. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Oleg Nesterov Reported-by: Caj Larsson Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

pidns: Stop pid allocation when init dies

2012-12-26T00:10:05Z

Oleg pointed out that in a pid namespace the sequence. - pid 1 becomes a zombie - setns(thepidns), fork,... - reaping pid 1. - The injected processes exiting. Can lead to processes attempting access their child reaper and instead following a stale pointer. That waitpid for init can return before all of the processes in the pid namespace have exited is also unfortunate. Avoid these problems by disabling the allocation of new pids in a pid namespace when init dies, instead of when the last process in a pid namespace is reaped.

userns: Require CAP_SYS_ADMIN for most uses of setns.

2012-12-15T00:12:03Z

Andy Lutomirski found a nasty little bug in the permissions of setns. With unprivileged user namespaces it became possible to create new namespaces without privilege. However the setns calls were relaxed to only require CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the user nameapce of the targed namespace. Which made the following nasty sequence possible. pid = clone(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNS); if (pid == 0) { /* child */ system("mount --bind /home/me/passwd /etc/passwd"); } else if (pid != 0) { /* parent */ char path[PATH_MAX]; snprintf(path, sizeof(path), "/proc/%u/ns/mnt"); fd = open(path, O_RDONLY); setns(fd, 0); system("su -"); } Prevent this possibility by requiring CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the current user namespace when joing all but the user namespace.
