exec: Compute file based creds only once

2020-05-30T03:00:54Z

Move the computation of creds from prepare_binfmt into begin_new_exec so that the creds need only be computed once. This is just code reorganization no semantic changes of any kind are made. Moving the computation is safe. I have looked through the kernel and verified none of the binfmts look at bprm->cred directly, and that there are no helpers that look at bprm->cred indirectly. Which means that it is not a problem to compute the bprm->cred later in the execution flow as it is not used until it becomes current->cred. A new function bprm_creds_from_file is added to contain the work that needs to be done. bprm_creds_from_file first computes which file bprm->executable or most likely bprm->file that the bprm->creds will be computed from. The funciton bprm_fill_uid is updated to receive the file instead of accessing bprm->file. The now unnecessary work needed to reset the bprm->cred->euid, and bprm->cred->egid is removed from brpm_fill_uid. A small comment to document that bprm_fill_uid now only deals with the work to handle suid and sgid files. The default case is already heandled by prepare_exec_creds. The function security_bprm_repopulate_creds is renamed security_bprm_creds_from_file and now is explicitly passed the file from which to compute the creds. The documentation of the bprm_creds_from_file security hook is updated to explain when the hook is called and what it needs to do. The file is passed from cap_bprm_creds_from_file into get_file_caps so that the caps are computed for the appropriate file. The now unnecessary work in cap_bprm_creds_from_file to reset the ambient capabilites has been removed. A small comment to document that the work of cap_bprm_creds_from_file is to read capabilities from the files secureity attribute and derive capabilities from the fact the user had uid 0 has been added.

exec: Add a per bprm->file version of per_clear

2020-05-30T02:06:48Z

There is a small bug in the code that recomputes parts of bprm->cred for every bprm->file. The code never recomputes the part of clear_dangerous_personality_flags it is responsible for. Which means that in practice if someone creates a sgid script the interpreter will not be able to use any of: READ_IMPLIES_EXEC ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT MMAP_PAGE_ZERO. This accentially clearing of personality flags probably does not matter in practice because no one has complained but it does make the code more difficult to understand. Further remaining bug compatible prevents the recomputation from being removed and replaced by simply computing bprm->cred once from the final bprm->file. Making this change removes the last behavior difference between computing bprm->creds from the final file and recomputing bprm->cred several times. Which allows this behavior change to be justified for it's own reasons, and for any but hunts looking into why the behavior changed to wind up here instead of in the code that will follow that computes bprm->cred from the final bprm->file. This small logic bug appears to have existed since the code started clearing dangerous personality bits.

Merge commit a4ae32c71fe9 ("exec: Always set cap_ambient in cap_bprm_set_creds")

2020-05-28T03:37:33Z

This is a bug fix and one of two places where I have found that the result of calling security_bprm_repopulate_creds more than once on different bprm->files depends on all of the bprm->files not just the file bprm->file. I intend to fix both of those cases and then modify the code to only call security_bprm_repopulate_creds on the final bprm file. So merge this change in so I hopefully reduce conflicts for others and I make it possible to build on top of this change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

exec: Always set cap_ambient in cap_bprm_set_creds

2020-05-26T18:11:00Z

An invariant of cap_bprm_set_creds is that every field in the new cred structure that cap_bprm_set_creds might set, needs to be set every time to ensure the fields does not get a stale value. The field cap_ambient is not set every time cap_bprm_set_creds is called, which means that if there is a suid or sgid script with an interpreter that has neither the suid nor the sgid bits set the interpreter should be able to accept ambient credentials. Unfortuantely because cap_ambient is not reset to it's original value the interpreter can not accept ambient credentials. Given that the ambient capability set is expected to be controlled by the caller, I don't think this is particularly serious. But it is definitely worth fixing so the code works correctly. I have tested to verify my reading of the code is correct and the interpreter of a sgid can receive ambient capabilities with this change and cannot receive ambient capabilities without this change.

exec: Convert security_bprm_set_creds into security_bprm_repopulate_creds

2020-05-21T15:16:50Z

Rename bprm->cap_elevated to bprm->active_secureexec and initialize it in prepare_binprm instead of in cap_bprm_set_creds. Initializing bprm->active_secureexec in prepare_binprm allows multiple implementations of security_bprm_repopulate_creds to play nicely with each other. Rename security_bprm_set_creds to security_bprm_reopulate_creds to emphasize that this path recomputes part of bprm->cred. This recomputation avoids the time of check vs time of use problems that are inherent in unix #! interpreters. In short two renames and a move in the location of initializing bprm->active_secureexec.

Despite the rather large diffstat, most of the changes are from two bug fix patches that move code from one Kconfig option to another. Beyond that bit of churn, the remaining changes are largely cleanups and bug-fixes as we slowly march towards container auditing. It isn't all boring though, we do have a couple of new things: file capabilities v3 support, and expanded support for filtering on filesystems to solve problems with remote filesystems.
