[ Upstream commit 2aff9d20d50ac45dd13a013ef5231f4fb8912356 ]

Move management of the sock-&gt;sk_security blob out
of the individual security modules and into the security
infrastructure. Instead of allocating the blobs from within
the modules the modules tell the infrastructure how much
space is required, and the space is allocated there.

commit 63dff3e48871b0583be5032ff8fb7260c349a18c upstream.

The LSM framework has an existing inode_free_security() hook which
is used by LSMs that manage state associated with an inode, but
due to the use of RCU to protect the inode, special care must be
taken to ensure that the LSMs do not fully release the inode state
until it is safe from a RCU perspective.

This patch implements a new inode_free_security_rcu() implementation
hook which is called when it is safe to free the LSM's internal inode
state.  Unfortunately, this new hook does not have access to the inode
itself as it may already be released, so the existing
inode_free_security() hook is retained for those LSMs which require
access to the inode.

<title>lsm: fixup the inode xattr capability handling</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e71327a647a5879dd35fbbdb3bb0230a72f65e48</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 61df7b82820494368bd46071ca97e43a3dfc3b11 upstream.

The current security_inode_setxattr() and security_inode_removexattr()
hooks rely on individual LSMs to either call into the associated
capability hooks (cap_inode_setxattr() or cap_inode_removexattr()), or
return a magic value of 1 to indicate that the LSM layer itself should
perform the capability checks.  Unfortunately, with the default return
value for these LSM hooks being 0, an individual LSM hook returning a
1 will cause the LSM hook processing to exit early, potentially
skipping a LSM.  Thankfully, with the exception of the BPF LSM, none
of the LSMs which currently register inode xattr hooks should end up
returning a value of 1, and in the BPF LSM case, with the BPF LSM hooks
executing last there should be no real harm in stopping processing of
the LSM hooks.  However, the reliance on the individual LSMs to either
call the capability hooks themselves, or signal the LSM with a return
value of 1, is fragile and relies on a specific set of LSMs being
enabled.  This patch is an effort to resolve, or minimize, these
issues.

Before we discuss the solution, there are a few observations and
considerations that we need to take into account:
* BPF LSM registers an implementation for every LSM hook, and that
  implementation simply returns the hook's default return value, a
  0 in this case.  We want to ensure that the default BPF LSM behavior
  results in the capability checks being called.
* SELinux and Smack do not expect the traditional capability checks
  to be applied to the xattrs that they "own".
* SELinux and Smack are currently written in such a way that the
  xattr capability checks happen before any additional LSM specific
  access control checks.  SELinux does apply SELinux specific access
  controls to all xattrs, even those not "owned" by SELinux.
* IMA and EVM also register xattr hooks but assume that the LSM layer
  and specific LSMs have already authorized the basic xattr operation.

In order to ensure we perform the capability based access controls
before the individual LSM access controls, perform only one capability
access control check for each operation, and clarify the logic around
applying the capability controls, we need a mechanism to determine if
any of the enabled LSMs "own" a particular xattr and want to take
responsibility for controlling access to that xattr.  The solution in
this patch is to create a new LSM hook, 'inode_xattr_skipcap', that is
not exported to the rest of the kernel via a security_XXX() function,
but is used by the LSM layer to determine if a LSM wants to control
access to a given xattr and avoid the traditional capability controls.
Registering an inode_xattr_skipcap hook is optional, if a LSM declines
to register an implementation, or uses an implementation that simply
returns the default value (0), there is no effect as the LSM continues
to enforce the capability based controls (unless another LSM takes
ownership of the xattr).  If none of the LSMs signal that the
capability checks should be skipped, the capability check is performed
and if access is granted the individual LSM xattr access control hooks
are executed, keeping with the DAC-before-LSM convention.

Commit c7423dbdbc9e ("ima: Handle -ESTALE returned by
ima_filter_rule_match()") introduced call to ima_lsm_copy_rule within a
RCU read-side critical section which contains kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL.
This implies a possible sleep and violates limitations of RCU read-side
critical sections on non-PREEMPT systems.

Sleeping within RCU read-side critical section might cause
synchronize_rcu() returning early and break RCU protection, allowing a
UAF to happen.

The root cause of this issue could be described as follows:
|	Thread A	|	Thread B	|
|			|ima_match_policy	|
|			|  rcu_read_lock	|
|ima_lsm_update_rule	|			|
|  synchronize_rcu	|			|
|			|    kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)|
|			|      sleep		|
==&gt; synchronize_rcu returns early
|  kfree(entry)		|			|
|			|    entry = entry-&gt;next|
==&gt; UAF happens and entry now becomes NULL (or could be anything).
|			|    entry-&gt;action	|
==&gt; Accessing entry might cause panic.

To fix this issue, we are converting all kmalloc that is called within
RCU read-side critical section to use GFP_ATOMIC.

Copying up xattrs is solely based on the security xattr name. For finer
granularity add a dentry parameter to the security_inode_copy_up_xattr
hook definition, allowing decisions to be based on the xattr content as
well.

Commit 08abce60d63f ("security: Introduce path_post_mknod hook")
introduced security_path_post_mknod(), to replace the IMA-specific call
to ima_post_path_mknod().

For symmetry with security_path_mknod(), security_path_post_mknod() was
called after a successful mknod operation, for any file type, rather
than only for regular files at the time there was the IMA call.

However, as reported by VFS maintainers, successful mknod operation does
not mean that the dentry always has an inode attached to it (for
example, not for FIFOs on a SAMBA mount).

If that condition happens, the kernel crashes when
security_path_post_mknod() attempts to verify if the inode associated to
the dentry is private.

Move security_path_post_mknod() where the ima_post_path_mknod() call was,
which is obviously correct from IMA/EVM perspective. IMA/EVM are the only
in-kernel users, and only need to inspect regular files.

Passing a NULL buffer into the lsm_get_self_attr() syscall is a valid
way to quickly determine the minimum size of the buffer needed to for
the syscall to return all of the LSM attributes to the caller.
Unfortunately we/I broke that behavior in commit d7cf3412a9f6
("lsm: consolidate buffer size handling into lsm_fill_user_ctx()")
such that it returned an error to the caller; this patch restores the
original desired behavior of using the NULL buffer as a quick way to
correctly size the attribute buffer.

Pull lsm updates from Paul Moore:

 - Promote IMA/EVM to a proper LSM

   This is the bulk of the diffstat, and the source of all the changes
   in the VFS code. Prior to the start of the LSM stacking work it was
   important that IMA/EVM were separate from the rest of the LSMs,
   complete with their own hooks, infrastructure, etc. as it was the
   only way to enable IMA/EVM at the same time as a LSM.

   However, now that the bulk of the LSM infrastructure supports
   multiple simultaneous LSMs, we can simplify things greatly by
   bringing IMA/EVM into the LSM infrastructure as proper LSMs. This is
   something I've wanted to see happen for quite some time and Roberto
   was kind enough to put in the work to make it happen.

 - Use the LSM hook default values to simplify the call_int_hook() macro

   Previously the call_int_hook() macro required callers to supply a
   default return value, despite a default value being specified when
   the LSM hook was defined.

   This simplifies the macro by using the defined default return value
   which makes life easier for callers and should also reduce the number
   of return value bugs in the future (we've had a few pop up recently,
   hence this work).

 - Use the KMEM_CACHE() macro instead of kmem_cache_create()

   The guidance appears to be to use the KMEM_CACHE() macro when
   possible and there is no reason why we can't use the macro, so let's
   use it.

 - Fix a number of comment typos in the LSM hook comment blocks

   Not much to say here, we fixed some questionable grammar decisions in
   the LSM hook comment blocks.
