seccomp: Check that seccomp_notif is zeroed out by the user

2020-01-02T21:03:45Z

This patch is a small change in enforcement of the uapi for SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_RECV ioctl. Specifically, the datastructure which is passed (seccomp_notif) must be zeroed out. Previously any of its members could be set to nonsense values, and we would ignore it. This ensures all fields are set to their zero value.

seccomp: add SECCOMP_USER_NOTIF_FLAG_CONTINUE

2019-10-10T21:45:51Z

This allows the seccomp notifier to continue a syscall. A positive discussion about this feature was triggered by a post to the ksummit-discuss mailing list (cf. [3]) and took place during KSummit (cf. [1]) and again at the containers/checkpoint-restore micro-conference at Linux Plumbers. Recently we landed seccomp support for SECCOMP_RET_USER_NOTIF (cf. [4]) which enables a process (watchee) to retrieve an fd for its seccomp filter. This fd can then be handed to another (usually more privileged) process (watcher). The watcher will then be able to receive seccomp messages about the syscalls having been performed by the watchee. This feature is heavily used in some userspace workloads. For example, it is currently used to intercept mknod() syscalls in user namespaces aka in containers. The mknod() syscall can be easily filtered based on dev_t. This allows us to only intercept a very specific subset of mknod() syscalls. Furthermore, mknod() is not possible in user namespaces toto coelo and so intercepting and denying syscalls that are not in the whitelist on accident is not a big deal. The watchee won't notice a difference. In contrast to mknod(), a lot of other syscall we intercept (e.g. setxattr()) cannot be easily filtered like mknod() because they have pointer arguments. Additionally, some of them might actually succeed in user namespaces (e.g. setxattr() for all "user.*" xattrs). Since we currently cannot tell seccomp to continue from a user notifier we are stuck with performing all of the syscalls in lieu of the container. This is a huge security liability since it is extremely difficult to correctly assume all of the necessary privileges of the calling task such that the syscall can be successfully emulated without escaping other additional security restrictions (think missing CAP_MKNOD for mknod(), or MS_NODEV on a filesystem etc.). This can be solved by telling seccomp to resume the syscall. One thing that came up in the discussion was the problem that another thread could change the memory after userspace has decided to let the syscall continue which is a well known TOCTOU with seccomp which is present in other ways already. The discussion showed that this feature is already very useful for any syscall without pointer arguments. For any accidentally intercepted non-pointer syscall it is safe to continue. For syscalls with pointer arguments there is a race but for any cautious userspace and the main usec cases the race doesn't matter. The notifier is intended to be used in a scenario where a more privileged watcher supervises the syscalls of lesser privileged watchee to allow it to get around kernel-enforced limitations by performing the syscall for it whenever deemed save by the watcher. Hence, if a user tricks the watcher into allowing a syscall they will either get a deny based on kernel-enforced restrictions later or they will have changed the arguments in such a way that they manage to perform a syscall with arguments that they would've been allowed to do anyway. In general, it is good to point out again, that the notifier fd was not intended to allow userspace to implement a security policy but rather to work around kernel security mechanisms in cases where the watcher knows that a given action is safe to perform. /* References */ [1]: https://linuxplumbersconf.org/event/4/contributions/560 [2]: https://linuxplumbersconf.org/event/4/contributions/477 [3]: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20190719093538.dhyopljyr5ns33qx@brauner.io [4]: commit 6a21cc50f0c7 ("seccomp: add a return code to trap to userspace") Co-developed-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner Reviewed-by: Tycho Andersen Cc: Andy Lutomirski Cc: Will Drewry CC: Tyler Hicks Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20190920083007.11475-2-christian.brauner@ubuntu.com Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

signal: Remove the signal number and task parameters from force_sig_info

2019-05-29T14:31:44Z

force_sig_info always delivers to the current task and the signal parameter always matches info.si_signo. So remove those parameters to make it a simpler less error prone interface, and to make it clear that none of the callers are doing anything clever. This guarantees that force_sig_info will not grow any new buggy callers that attempt to call force_sig on a non-current task, or that pass an signal number that does not match info.si_signo.

seccomp: Make NEW_LISTENER and TSYNC flags exclusive

2019-04-25T22:55:58Z

As the comment notes, the return codes for TSYNC and NEW_LISTENER conflict, because they both return positive values, one in the case of success and one in the case of error. So, let's disallow both of these flags together. While this is technically a userspace break, all the users I know of are still waiting on me to land this feature in libseccomp, so I think it'll be safe. Also, at present my use case doesn't require TSYNC at all, so this isn't a big deal to disallow. If someone wanted to support this, a path forward would be to add a new flag like TSYNC_AND_LISTENER_YES_I_UNDERSTAND_THAT_TSYNC_WILL_JUST_RETURN_EAGAIN, but the use cases are so different I don't see it really happening. Finally, it's worth noting that this does actually fix a UAF issue: at the end of seccomp_set_mode_filter(), we have: if (flags & SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_NEW_LISTENER) { if (ret < 0) { listener_f->private_data = NULL; fput(listener_f); put_unused_fd(listener); } else { fd_install(listener, listener_f); ret = listener; } } out_free: seccomp_filter_free(prepared); But if ret > 0 because TSYNC raced, we'll install the listener fd and then free the filter out from underneath it, causing a UAF when the task closes it or dies. This patch also switches the condition to be simply if (ret), so that if someone does add the flag mentioned above, they won't have to remember to fix this too.

syscalls: Remove start and number from syscall_get_arguments() args

2019-04-05T13:26:43Z

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only 0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6 arguments of a system call. This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace, ftrace and perf.

syscall_get_arch: add "struct task_struct *" argument

2019-03-21T01:12:36Z

This argument is required to extend the generic ptrace API with PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request: syscall_get_arch() is going to be called from ptrace_request() along with syscall_get_nr(), syscall_get_arguments(), syscall_get_error(), and syscall_get_return_value() functions with a tracee as their argument. The primary intent is that the triple (audit_arch, syscall_nr, arg1..arg6) should describe what system call is being called and what its arguments are.
