* userns: Require CAP_SYS_ADMIN for most uses of setns.Eric W. Biederman2012-12-142-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> 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.

* proc: Usable inode numbers for the namespace file descriptors.Eric W. Biederman2012-11-205-1/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Assign a unique proc inode to each namespace, and use that inode number to ensure we only allocate at most one proc inode for every namespace in proc. A single proc inode per namespace allows userspace to test to see if two processes are in the same namespace. This has been a long requested feature and only blocked because a naive implementation would put the id in a global space and would ultimately require having a namespace for the names of namespaces, making migration and certain virtualization tricks impossible. We still don't have per superblock inode numbers for proc, which appears necessary for application unaware checkpoint/restart and migrations (if the application is using namespace file descriptors) but that is now allowd by the design if it becomes important. I have preallocated the ipc and uts initial proc inode numbers so their structures can be statically initialized. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
* userns: For /proc/self/{uid,gid}_map derive the lower userns from the struct ↵Eric W. Biederman2012-11-201-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | file To keep things sane in the context of file descriptor passing derive the user namespace that uids are mapped into from the opener of the file instead of from current. When writing to the maps file the lower user namespace must always be the parent user namespace, or setting the mapping simply does not make sense. Enforce that the opener of the file was in the parent user namespace or the user namespace whose mapping is being set. Acked-by: Serge E. Hallyn <serge.hallyn@ubuntu.com> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

* userns: Kill task_user_nsEric W. Biederman2012-11-202-4/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The task_user_ns function hides the fact that it is getting the user namespace from struct cred on the task. struct cred may go away as soon as the rcu lock is released. This leads to a race where we can dereference a stale user namespace pointer. To make it obvious a struct cred is involved kill task_user_ns. To kill the race modify the users of task_user_ns to only reference the user namespace while the rcu lock is held.

* userns: Allow unprivileged users to create user namespaces.Eric W. Biederman2012-11-191-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we have been through every permission check in the kernel having uid == 0 and gid == 0 in your local user namespace no longer adds any special privileges. Even having a full set of caps in your local user namespace is safe because capabilies are relative to your local user namespace, and do not confer unexpected privileges. Over the long term this should allow much more of the kernels functionality to be safely used by non-root users. Functionality like unsharing the mount namespace that is only unsafe because it can fool applications whose privileges are raised when they are executed. Since those applications have no privileges in a user namespaces it becomes safe to spoof and confuse those applications all you want. Those capabilities will still need to be enabled carefully because we may still need things like rlimits on the number of unprivileged mounts but that is to avoid DOS attacks not to avoid fooling root owned processes.

* pidns: Support unsharing the pid namespace.Eric W. Biederman2012-11-193-10/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unsharing of the pid namespace unlike unsharing of other namespaces does not take affect immediately. Instead it affects the children created with fork and clone. The first of these children becomes the init process of the new pid namespace, the rest become oddball children of pid 0. From the point of view of the new pid namespace the process that created it is pid 0, as it's pid does not map. A couple of different semantics were considered but this one was settled on because it is easy to implement and it is usable from pam modules. The core reasons for the existence of unshare. I took a survey of the callers of pam modules and the following appears to be a representative sample of their logic. { setup stuff include pam child = fork(); if (!child) { setuid() exec /bin/bash } waitpid(child); pam and other cleanup } As you can see there is a fork to create the unprivileged user space process. Which means that the unprivileged user space process will appear as pid 1 in the new pid namespace. Further most login processes do not cope with extraneous children which means shifting the duty of reaping extraneous child process to the creator of those extraneous children makes the system more comprehensible. The practical reason for this set of pid namespace semantics is that it is simple to implement and verify they work correctly. Whereas an implementation that requres changing the struct pid on a process comes with a lot more races and pain. Not the least of which is that glibc caches getpid(). These semantics are implemented by having two notions of the pid namespace of a proces. There is task_active_pid_ns which is the pid namspace the process was created with and the pid namespace that all pids are presented to that process in. The task_active_pid_ns is stored in the struct pid of the task. Then there is the pid namespace that will be used for children that pid namespace is stored in task->nsproxy->pid_ns.

* pidns: Consolidate initialzation of special init task stateEric W. Biederman2012-11-191-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of setting child_reaper and SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE one way for the system init process, and another way for pid namespace init processes test pid->nr == 1 and use the same code for both. For the global init this results in SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE being set much earlier in the initialization process. This is a small cleanup and it paves the way for allowing unshare and enter of the pid namespace as that path like our global init also will not set CLONE_NEWPID. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | - Pid namespaces are designed to be inescapable so verify that the passed in pid namespace is a child of the currently active pid namespace or the currently active pid namespace itself.

* pidns: Deny strange cases when creating pid namespaces.Eric W. Biederman2012-11-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns will soon be allowed to support unshare and setns. The definition of creating a child pid namespace when task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns could be that we create a child pid namespace of current->ns_proxy->pid_ns. However that leads to strange cases like trying to have a single process be init in multiple pid namespaces, which is racy and hard to think about. The definition of creating a child pid namespace when task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns could be that we create a child pid namespace of task_active_pid_ns(current). While that seems less racy it does not provide any utility. Therefore define the semantics of creating a child pid namespace when task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns to be that the pid namespace creation fails. That is easy to implement and easy to think about. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Set nr_hashed to -1 just before we schedule the work to cleanup proc. Test nr_hashed just before we hash a new pid and if nr_hashed is < 0 fail. This guaranteees that processes never enter a pid namespaces after we have cleaned up the state to support processes in a pid namespace. Currently sending SIGKILL to all of the process in a pid namespace as init exists gives us this guarantee but we need something a little stronger to support unsharing and joining a pid namespace.

* pidns: Make the pidns proc mount/umount logic obvious.Eric W. Biederman2012-11-193-13/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Track the number of pids in the proc hash table. When the number of pids goes to 0 schedule work to unmount the kernel mount of proc. Move the mount of proc into alloc_pid when we allocate the pid for init. Remove the surprising calls of pid_ns_release proc in fork and proc_flush_task. Those code paths really shouldn't know about proc namespace implementation details and people have demonstrated several times that finding and understanding those code paths is difficult and non-obvious. Because of the call path detach pid is alwasy called with the rtnl_lock held free_pid is not allowed to sleep, so the work to unmounting proc is moved to a work queue. This has the side benefit of not blocking the entire world waiting for the unnecessary rcu_barrier in deactivate_locked_super. In the process of making the code clear and obvious this fixes a bug reported by Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> where we would leak a mount of proc during clone(CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_NEWNET) if copy_pid_ns succeeded and copy_net_ns failed.

* pidns: Use task_active_pid_ns where appropriateEric W. Biederman2012-11-197-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The expressions tsk->nsproxy->pid_ns and task_active_pid_ns aka ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) should have the same number of cache line misses with the practical difference that ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) is released later in a processes life. Furthermore by using task_active_pid_ns it becomes trivial to write an unshare implementation for the the pid namespace. So I have used task_active_pid_ns everywhere I can. In fork since the pid has not yet been attached to the process I use ns_of_pid, to achieve the same effect. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>

The size of the array depends on a level (depth) of pid namespaces. Now a level of pidns is not limited, so 'struct pid' can be more than one page. Looks reasonable, that it should be less than a page. MAX_PIS_NS_LEVEL is not calculated from PAGE_SIZE, because in this case it depends on architectures, config options and it will be reduced, if someone adds a new fields in struct pid or struct upid. I suggest to set MAX_PIS_NS_LEVEL = 32, because it saves ability to expand "struct pid" and it's more than enough for all known for me use-cases. When someone finds a reasonable use case, we can add a config option or a sysctl parameter. In addition it will reduce the effect of another problem, when we have many nested namespaces and the oldest one starts dying. zap_pid_ns_processe will be called for each namespace and find_vpid will be called for each process in a namespace. find_vpid will be called minimum max_level^2 / 2 times. The reason of that is that when we found a bit in pidmap, we can't determine this pidns is top for this process or it isn't. vpid is a heavy operation, so a fork bomb, which create many nested namespace, can make a system inaccessible for a long time. For example my system becomes inaccessible for a few minutes with 4000 processes.

If per_cpu/<cpu>/buffer_size_kb is modified for such a CPU, it can cause a panic due to NULL dereference in ring_buffer_resize(). To fix this, resize operation is allowed only if the per-cpu buffer has been initialized.

Two or more different tasks can call install_breakpoint()->prepare_uprobe() at the same time, this leads to numerous problems if UPROBE_COPY_INSN is not set. Just for example, the second copy_insn() can corrupt the already analyzed/fixuped uprobe->arch.insn and race with handle_swbp(). This patch simply adds uprobe->copy_mutex to serialize this code. We could probably reuse ->consumer_rwsem, but this would mean that consumer->handler() can not use mm->mmap_sem, not good. Note: this is another temporary ugly hack until we move this logic into uprobe_register(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

However I think that this bug is just another indication that we should move copy_insn/uprobe_analyze_insn code from install_breakpoint() to uprobe_register(), there are a lot of other reasons for that. Until then, add a hack to close the race. A task can hit uprobe U1, but before it calls find_uprobe() this uprobe can be unregistered *AND* another uprobe U2 can be added to uprobes_tree at the same inode/offset. In this case handle_swbp() will use the not-fully-initialized U2, in particular its arch.insn for xol. Add the additional !UPROBE_COPY_INSN check into handle_swbp(), if this flag is not set we simply restart as if the new uprobe was not inserted yet. This is not very nice, we need barriers, but we will remove this hack when we change uprobe_register(). Note: with or without this patch install_breakpoint() can race with itself, yet another reson to kill UPROBE_COPY_INSN altogether. And even the usage of uprobe->flags is not safe.

The problem is that register_for_each_vma(false) always returns 0 and thus this logic does not work. 1. Change verify_opcode() to return 0 rather than -EINVAL when unregister detects the !is_swbp insn, we can treat this case as success and currently unregister paths ignore the error code anyway. 2. Change remove_breakpoint() to propagate the error code from write_opcode(). 3. Change register_for_each_vma(is_register => false) to remove as much breakpoints as possible but return non-zero if remove_breakpoint() fails at least once.

But the usage of is_swbp_at_addr() is equally confusing, and it adds the extra get_user_pages() we can avoid. This patch removes set_orig_insn()->is_swbp_at_addr() but changes write_opcode() to do the necessary checks before replace_page(). Perhaps it also makes sense to ensure PAGE_MAPPING_ANON in unregister case. find_active_uprobe() becomes the only user of is_swbp_at_addr(), we can change its semantics.

And it can not be counted as optimization. mmap/register races are very unlikely, while in the likely case is_swbp_at_addr() adds the extra get_user_pages() even if the caller is uprobe_mmap(current->mm) and returns false. Note also that the semantics/usage of is_swbp_at_addr() in uprobe.c is confusing. set_swbp() uses it to detect the case when this insn was already modified by uprobes, that is why it should always compare the opcode with UPROBE_SWBP_INSN even if the hardware (like powerpc) has other trap insns. It doesn't matter if this breakpoint was in fact installed by gdb or application itself, we are going to "steal" this breakpoint anyway and execute the original insn from vm_file even if it no longer matches the memory. OTOH, handle_swbp()->find_active_uprobe() uses is_swbp_at_addr() to figure out whether we need to send SIGTRAP or not if we can not find uprobe, so in this case it should return true for all trap variants, not only for UPROBE_SWBP_INSN. This patch removes set_swbp()->is_swbp_at_addr(), the next patches will remove it from set_orig_insn() which is similar to set_swbp() in this respect. So the only caller will be handle_swbp() and we can make its semantics clear. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

We should never try to write into MAP_SHARED mapping, this can confuse an apllication which actually writes to ->vm_file. With this patch valid_vma(false) ignores VM_WRITE only but checks other (immutable) bits checked by valid_vma(true). This can also speedup uprobe_munmap() and uprobe_unregister(). Note: even after this patch _unregister can confuse the probed application if it does mprotect(PROT_WRITE) after _register and installs "int3", but this is hardly possible to avoid and this doesn't differ from gdb case.

The problem is, it creates the special case when task->utask is NULL, we can't distinguish RUNNING and BP_HIT. With this patch utask == NULL always means RUNNING.
