selinux: fix race between old and new sidtab
selinux: fix cond_list corruption when changing booleans
selinux: make nslot handling in avtab more robust
|
|
Since commit 1b8b31a2e612 ("selinux: convert policy read-write lock to
RCU"), there is a small window during policy load where the new policy
pointer has already been installed, but some threads may still be
holding the old policy pointer in their read-side RCU critical sections.
This means that there may be conflicting attempts to add a new SID entry
to both tables via sidtab_context_to_sid().
See also (and the rest of the thread):
https://lore.kernel.org/selinux/CAFqZXNvfux46_f8gnvVvRYMKoes24nwm2n3sPbMjrB8vKTW00g@mail.gmail.com/
Fix this by installing the new policy pointer under the old sidtab's
spinlock along with marking the old sidtab as "frozen". Then, if an
attempt to add new entry to a "frozen" sidtab is detected, make
sidtab_context_to_sid() return -ESTALE to indicate that a new policy
has been installed and that the caller will have to abort the policy
transaction and try again after re-taking the policy pointer (which is
guaranteed to be a newer policy). This requires adding a retry-on-ESTALE
logic to all callers of sidtab_context_to_sid(), but fortunately these
are easy to determine and aren't that many.
This seems to be the simplest solution for this problem, even if it
looks somewhat ugly. Note that other places in the kernel (e.g.
do_mknodat() in fs/namei.c) use similar stale-retry patterns, so I think
it's reasonable.

Currently, duplicate_policydb_cond_list() first copies the whole
conditional avtab and then tries to link to the correct entries in
cond_dup_av_list() using avtab_search(). However, since the conditional
avtab may contain multiple entries with the same key, this approach
often fails to find the right entry, potentially leading to wrong rules
being activated/deactivated when booleans are changed.
To fix this, instead start with an empty conditional avtab and add the
individual entries one-by-one while building the new av_lists. This
approach leads to the correct result, since each entry is present in the
av_lists exactly once.
The issue can be reproduced with Fedora policy as follows:
# sesearch -s ftpd_t -t public_content_rw_t -c dir -p create -A
allow ftpd_t non_security_file_type:dir { add_name create getattr ioctl link lock open read remove_name rename reparent rmdir search setattr unlink watch watch_reads write }; [ ftpd_full_access ]:True
allow ftpd_t public_content_rw_t:dir { add_name create link remove_name rename reparent rmdir setattr unlink watch watch_reads write }; [ ftpd_anon_write ]:True
# setsebool ftpd_anon_write=off ftpd_connect_all_unreserved=off ftpd_connect_db=off ftpd_full_access=off
On fixed kernels, the sesearch output is the same after the setsebool
command:
# sesearch -s ftpd_t -t public_content_rw_t -c dir -p create -A
allow ftpd_t non_security_file_type:dir { add_name create getattr ioctl link lock open read remove_name rename reparent rmdir search setattr unlink watch watch_reads write }; [ ftpd_full_access ]:True
allow ftpd_t public_content_rw_t:dir { add_name create link remove_name rename reparent rmdir setattr unlink watch watch_reads write }; [ ftpd_anon_write ]:True
While on the broken kernels, it will be different:
# sesearch -s ftpd_t -t public_content_rw_t -c dir -p create -A
allow ftpd_t non_security_file_type:dir { add_name create getattr ioctl link lock open read remove_name rename reparent rmdir search setattr unlink watch watch_reads write }; [ ftpd_full_access ]:True
allow ftpd_t non_security_file_type:dir { add_name create getattr ioctl link lock open read remove_name rename reparent rmdir search setattr unlink watch watch_reads write }; [ ftpd_full_access ]:True
allow ftpd_t non_security_file_type:dir { add_name create getattr ioctl link lock open read remove_name rename reparent rmdir search setattr unlink watch watch_reads write }; [ ftpd_full_access ]:True
While there, also simplify the computation of nslots. This changes the
nslots values for nrules 2 or 3 to just two slots instead of 4, which
makes the sequence more consistent.

selinuxfs: unify policy load error reporting
selinux: fix variable scope issue in live sidtab conversion
selinux: don't log MAC_POLICY_LOAD record on failed policy load
|
|
Commit 02a52c5c8c3b ("selinux: move policy commit after updating
selinuxfs") moved the selinux_policy_commit() call out of
security_load_policy() into sel_write_load(), which caused a subtle yet
rather serious bug.
The problem is that security_load_policy() passes a reference to the
convert_params local variable to sidtab_convert(), which stores it in
the sidtab, where it may be accessed until the policy is swapped over
and RCU synchronized. Before 02a52c5c8c3b, selinux_policy_commit() was
called directly from security_load_policy(), so the convert_params
pointer remained valid all the way until the old sidtab was destroyed,
but now that's no longer the case and calls to sidtab_context_to_sid()
on the old sidtab after security_load_policy() returns may cause invalid
memory accesses.
This can be easily triggered using the stress test from commit
ee1a84fdfeed ("selinux: overhaul sidtab to fix bug and improve
performance"):
```
function rand_cat() {
echo $(( $RANDOM % 1024 ))
}
function do_work() {
while true; do
echo -n "system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0:c$(rand_cat),c$(rand_cat)" \
>/sys/fs/selinux/context 2>/dev/null || true
done
}
do_work >/dev/null &
do_work >/dev/null &
do_work >/dev/null &
while load_policy; do echo -n .; sleep 0.1; done
kill %1
kill %2
kill %3
```
Fix this by allocating the temporary sidtab convert structures
dynamically and passing them among the
selinux_policy_{load,cancel,commit} functions.

SELinux stores the active policy in memory, so the changes to this data
at runtime would have an impact on the security guarantees provided
by SELinux. Measuring in-memory SELinux policy through IMA subsystem
provides a secure way for the attestation service to remotely validate
the policy contents at runtime.
Measure the hash of the loaded policy by calling the IMA hook
ima_measure_critical_data(). Since the size of the loaded policy
can be large (several MB), measure the hash of the policy instead of
the entire policy to avoid bloating the IMA log entry.
To enable SELinux data measurement, the following steps are required:
1, Add "ima_policy=critical_data" to the kernel command line arguments
to enable measuring SELinux data at boot time.
For example,
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.10.0-rc1+ root=UUID=fd643309-a5d2-4ed3-b10d-3c579a5fab2f ro nomodeset security=selinux ima_policy=critical_data
2, Add the following rule to /etc/ima/ima-policy
measure func=CRITICAL_DATA label=selinux
Sample measurement of the hash of SELinux policy:
To verify the measured data with the current SELinux policy run
the following commands and verify the output hash values match.
sha256sum /sys/fs/selinux/policy | cut -d' ' -f 1
grep "selinux-policy-hash" /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements | tail -1 | cut -d' ' -f 6
Note that the actual verification of SELinux policy would require loading
the expected policy into an identical kernel on a pristine/known-safe
system and run the sha256sum /sys/kernel/selinux/policy there to get
the expected hash.

Since after this change security_policydb_len() is only called from

There are a few bugs in the error handling for security_load_policy().
1) If the newpolicy->sidtab allocation fails then it leads to a NULL
dereference. Also the error code was not set to -ENOMEM on that
path.
2) If policydb_read() failed then we call policydb_destroy() twice
which meands we call kvfree(p->sym_val_to_name[i]) twice.
3) If policydb_load_isids() failed then we call sidtab_destroy() twice
and that results in a double free in the sidtab_destroy_tree()
function because entry.ptr_inner and entry.ptr_leaf are not set to
NULL.
One thing that makes this code nice to deal with is that none of the
functions return partially allocated data. In other words, the
policydb_read() either allocates everything successfully or it frees
all the data it allocates. It never returns a mix of allocated and
not allocated data.
I re-wrote this to only free the successfully allocated data which
avoids the double frees. I also re-ordered selinux_policy_free() so
it's in the reverse order of the allocation function.

Convert the policy read-write lock to RCU. This is significantly
simplified by the earlier work to encapsulate the policy data
structures and refactor the policy load and boolean setting logic.
Move the latest_granting sequence number into the selinux_policy
structure so that it can be updated atomically with the policy.
Since removing the policy rwlock and moving latest_granting reduces
the selinux_ss structure to nothing more than a wrapper around the
selinux_policy pointer, get rid of the extra layer of indirection.
At present this change merely passes a hardcoded 1 to
rcu_dereference_check() in the cases where we know we do not need to
take rcu_read_lock(), with the preceding comment explaining why.
Alternatively we could pass fsi->mutex down from selinuxfs and
apply a lockdep check on it instead.
Based in part on earlier attempts to convert the policy rwlock
to RCU by Kaigai Kohei [1] and by Peter Enderborg [2].

Certain SELinux security server functions (e.g. security_port_sid,
called during bind) were not explicitly testing to see if SELinux
has been initialized (i.e. initial policy loaded) and handling
the no-policy-loaded case. In the past this happened to work
because the policydb was statically allocated and could always
be accessed, but with the recent encapsulation of policy state
and conversion to dynamic allocation, we can no longer access
the policy state prior to initialization. Add a test of
!selinux_initialized(state) to all of the exported functions that
were missing them and handle appropriately.

Refactor the logic for changing SELinux policy booleans in a similar
manner to the refactoring of policy load, thereby reducing the
size of the critical section when the policy write-lock is held
and making it easier to convert the policy rwlock to RCU in the
future. Instead of directly modifying the policydb in place, modify
a copy and then swap it into place through a single pointer update.
Only fully copy the portions of the policydb that are affected by
boolean changes to avoid the full cost of a deep policydb copy.
Introduce another level of indirection for the sidtab since changing
booleans does not require updating the sidtab, unlike policy load.
While we are here, create a common helper for notifying
other kernel components and userspace of a policy change and call it
from both security_set_bools() and selinux_policy_commit().
Based on an old (2004) patch by Kaigai Kohei [1] to convert the policy
rwlock to RCU that was deferred at the time since it did not
significantly improve performance and introduced complexity. Peter
Enderborg later submitted a patch series to convert to RCU [2] that
would have made changing booleans a much more expensive operation
by requiring a full policydb_write();policydb_read(); sequence to
deep copy the entire policydb and also had concerns regarding
atomic allocations.
This change is now simplified by the earlier work to encapsulate
policy state in the selinux_policy struct and to refactor
policy load. After this change, the last major obstacle to
converting the policy rwlock to RCU is likely the sidtab live
convert support.

With the refactoring of the policy load logic in the security
server from the previous change, it is now possible to split out
the committing of the new policy from security_load_policy() and
perform it only after successful updating of selinuxfs. Change
security_load_policy() to return the newly populated policy
data structures to the caller, export selinux_policy_commit()
for external callers, and introduce selinux_policy_cancel() to
provide a way to cancel the policy load in the event of an error
during updating of the selinuxfs directory tree. Further, rework
the interfaces used by selinuxfs to get information from the policy
when creating the new directory tree to take and act upon the
new policy data structure rather than the current/active policy.
Update selinuxfs to use these updated and new interfaces. While
we are here, stop re-creating the policy_capabilities directory
on each policy load since it does not depend on the policy, and
stop trying to create the booleans and classes directories during
the initial creation of selinuxfs since no information is available
until first policy load.
After this change, a failure while updating the booleans and class
directories will cause the entire policy load to be canceled, leaving
the original policy intact, and policy load notifications to userspace
will only happen after a successful completion of updating those
directories. This does not (yet) provide full atomicity with respect
to the updating of the directory trees themselves.

Encapsulate the policy state in its own structure (struct
selinux_policy) that is separately allocated but referenced from the
selinux_ss structure. The policy state includes the SID table
(particularly the context structures), the policy database, and the
mapping between the kernel classes/permissions and the policy values.
Refactor the security server portion of the policy load logic to
cleanly separate loading of the new structures from committing the new
policy. Unify the initial policy load and reload code paths as much
as possible, avoiding duplicated code. Make sure we are taking the
policy read-lock prior to any dereferencing of the policy. Move the
copying of the policy capability booleans into the state structure
outside of the policy write-lock because they are separate from the
policy and are read outside of any policy lock; possibly they should
be using at least READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE or smp_load_acquire/store_release.
These changes simplify the policy loading logic, reduce the size of
the critical section while holding the policy write-lock, and should
facilitate future changes to e.g. refactor the entire policy reload
logic including the selinuxfs code to make the updating of the policy
and the selinuxfs directory tree atomic and/or to convert the policy
read-write lock to RCU.

Presently mdp does not enable any SELinux policy capabilities
in the dummy policy it generates. Thus, policies derived from
it will by default lack various features commonly used in modern
policies such as open permission, extended socket classes, network
peer controls, etc. Split the policy capability definitions out into
their own headers so that we can include them into mdp without pulling in
other kernel headers and extend mdp generate policycap statements for the
policy capabilities known to the kernel. Policy authors may wish to
selectively remove some of these from the generated policy.

Move (most of) the definitions of hashtab_search() and hashtab_insert()
to the header file. In combination with the previous patch, this avoids
calling the callbacks indirectly by function pointers and allows for
better optimization, leading to a drastic performance improvement of
these operations.
With this patch, I measured a speed up in the following areas (measured
on x86_64 F32 VM with 4 CPUs):
1. Policy load (`load_policy`) - takes ~150 ms instead of ~230 ms.
2. `chcon -R unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmp_t:s0:c381,c519 /tmp/linux-src`
where /tmp/linux-src is an extracted linux-5.7 source tarball -
takes ~522 ms instead of ~576 ms. This is because of many
symtab_search() calls in string_to_context_struct() when there are
many categories specified in the context.
3. `stress-ng --msg 1 --msg-ops 10000000` - takes 12.41 s instead of
13.95 s (consumes 18.6 s of kernel CPU time instead of 21.6 s).
This is thanks to security_transition_sid() being ~43% faster after
this patch.

Refactor searching and inserting into hashtabs to pave the way for
converting hashtab_search() and hashtab_insert() to inline functions in
the next patch. This will avoid indirect calls and allow the compiler to
better optimize individual callers, leading to a significant performance
improvement.
In order to avoid the indirect calls, the key hashing and comparison
callbacks need to be extracted from the hashtab struct and passed
directly to hashtab_search()/_insert() by the callers so that the
callback address is always known at compile time. The kernel's
rhashtable library (<linux/rhashtable*.h>) does the same thing.
This of course makes the hashtab functions slightly easier to misuse by
passing a wrong callback set, but unfortunately there is no better way
to implement a hash table that is both generic and efficient in C. This
patch tries to somewhat mitigate this by only calling the hashtab
functions in the same file where the corresponding callbacks are
defined (wrapping them into more specialized functions as needed).
Note that this patch doesn't bring any benefit without also moving the
definitions of hashtab_search() and -_insert() to the header file, which
is done in a follow-up patch for easier review of the hashtab.c changes
in this patch.

In general SELinux no longer treats undefined object classes or permissions
in the policy as a fatal error, instead handling them in accordance with
handle_unknown. However, the process class and process transition and
dyntransition permissions are still required to be defined due to
dependencies on these definitions for default labeling behaviors,
role and range transitions in older policy versions that lack an explicit
class field, and role allow checking. Log error messages in these cases
since otherwise the policy load will fail silently with no indication
to the user as to the underlying cause. While here, fix the checking for
process transition / dyntransition so that omitting either permission is
handled as an error; both are needed in order to ensure that role allow
checking is consistently applied.

Clang static analysis reports this double free error
security/selinux/ss/conditional.c:139:2: warning: Attempt to free released memory [unix.Malloc]
kfree(node->expr.nodes);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When cond_read_node fails, it calls cond_node_destroy which frees the
node but does not poison the entry in the node list. So when it
returns to its caller cond_read_list, cond_read_list deletes the
partial list. The latest entry in the list will be deleted twice.
So instead of freeing the node in cond_read_node, let list freeing in
code_read_list handle the freeing the problem node along with all of the
earlier nodes.
Because cond_read_node no longer does any error handling, the goto's
the error case are redundant. Instead just return the error code.

Pull SELinux updates from Paul Moore:
"The highlights:
- A number of improvements to various SELinux internal data
structures to help improve performance. We move the role
transitions into a hash table. In the content structure we shift
from hashing the content string (aka SELinux label) to the
structure itself, when it is valid. This last change not only
offers a speedup, but it helps us simplify the code some as well.
- Add a new SELinux policy version which allows for a more space
efficient way of storing the filename transitions in the binary
policy. Given the default Fedora SELinux policy with the unconfined
module enabled, this change drops the policy size from ~7.6MB to
~3.3MB. The kernel policy load time dropped as well.
- Some fixes to the error handling code in the policy parser to
properly return error codes when things go wrong"

I thought I fixed the counting in filename_trans_read_helper() to count
the compat rule count correctly in the final version, but it's still
wrong. To really count the same thing as in the compat path, we'd need
to add up the cardinalities of stype bitmaps of all datums.
Since the kernel currently doesn't implement an ebitmap_cardinality()
function (and computing the proper count would just waste CPU cycles
anyway), just document that we use the field only in case of the old
format and stop updating it in filename_trans_read_helper().

Implement a new, more space-efficient way of storing filename
transitions in the binary policy. The internal structures have already
been converted to this new representation; this patch just implements
reading/writing an equivalent represntation from/to the binary policy.
This new format reduces the size of Fedora policy from 7.6 MB to only
3.3 MB (with policy optimization enabled in both cases). With the
unconfined module disabled, the size is reduced from 3.3 MB to 2.4 MB.
The time to load policy into kernel is also shorter with the new format.
On Fedora Rawhide x86_64 it dropped from 157 ms to 106 ms; without the
unconfined module from 115 ms to 105 ms.

Always hashing the string representation is inefficient. Just hash the
contents of the structure directly (using jhash). If the context is
invalid (str & len are set), then hash the string as before, otherwise
hash the structured data.
Since the context hashing function is now faster (about 10 times), this
patch decreases the overhead of security_transition_sid(), which is
called from many hooks.
The jhash function seemed as a good choice, since it is used as the
default hashing algorithm in rhashtable.

Currently, they are stored in a linked list, which adds significant
overhead to security_transition_sid(). On Fedora, with 428 role
transitions in policy, converting this list to a hash table cuts down
its run time by about 50%. This was measured by running 'stress-ng --msg
1 --msg-ops 100000' under perf with and without this patch.

In [see "Fixes:"] I missed the fact that str_read() may give back an
allocated pointer even if it returns an error, causing a potential
memory leak in filename_trans_read_one(). Fix this by making the
function free the allocated string whenever it returns a non-zero value,
which also makes its behavior more obvious and prevents repeating the
same mistake in the future.
