vfs: fix do_last() regression

2020-04-28T18:03:37Z

commit 6404674acd596de41fd3ad5f267b4525494a891a upstream. Brown paperbag time: fetching ->i_uid/->i_mode really should've been done from nd->inode. I even suggested that, but the reason for that has slipped through the cracks and I went for dir->d_inode instead - made for more "obvious" patch. Analysis: - at the entry into do_last() and all the way to step_into(): dir (aka nd->path.dentry) is known not to have been freed; so's nd->inode and it's equal to dir->d_inode unless we are already doomed to -ECHILD. inode of the file to get opened is not known. - after step_into(): inode of the file to get opened is known; dir might be pointing to freed memory/be negative/etc. - at the call of may_create_in_sticky(): guaranteed to be out of RCU mode; inode of the file to get opened is known and pinned; dir might be garbage. The last was the reason for the original patch. Except that at the do_last() entry we can be in RCU mode and it is possible that nd->path.dentry->d_inode has already changed under us. In that case we are going to fail with -ECHILD, but we need to be careful; nd->inode is pointing to valid struct inode and it's the same as nd->path.dentry->d_inode in "won't fail with -ECHILD" case, so we should use that.

do_last(): fetch directory ->i_mode and ->i_uid before it's too late

commit d0cb50185ae942b03c4327be322055d622dc79f6 upstream. may_create_in_sticky() call is done when we already have dropped the reference to dir. Fixes: 30aba6656f61e (namei: allow restricted O_CREAT of FIFOs and regular files) Signed-off-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

namei: allow restricted O_CREAT of FIFOs and regular files

2020-04-28T18:03:36Z

commit 30aba6656f61ed44cba445a3c0d38b296fa9e8f5 upstream. Disallows open of FIFOs or regular files not owned by the user in world writable sticky directories, unless the owner is the same as that of the directory or the file is opened without the O_CREAT flag. The purpose is to make data spoofing attacks harder. This protection can be turned on and off separately for FIFOs and regular files via sysctl, just like the symlinks/hardlinks protection. This patch is based on Openwall's "HARDEN_FIFO" feature by Solar Designer. This is a brief list of old vulnerabilities that could have been prevented by this feature, some of them even allow for privilege escalation: CVE-2000-1134 CVE-2007-3852 CVE-2008-0525 CVE-2009-0416 CVE-2011-4834 CVE-2015-1838 CVE-2015-7442 CVE-2016-7489 This list is not meant to be complete. It's difficult to track down all vulnerabilities of this kind because they were often reported without any mention of this particular attack vector. In fact, before hardlinks/symlinks restrictions, fifos/regular files weren't the favorite vehicle to exploit them.

fs: Teach path_connected to handle nfs filesystems with multiple roots.

2018-06-16T21:22:41Z

commit 95dd77580ccd66a0da96e6d4696945b8cea39431 upstream. On nfsv2 and nfsv3 the nfs server can export subsets of the same filesystem and report the same filesystem identifier, so that the nfs client can know they are the same filesystem. The subsets can be from disjoint directory trees. The nfsv2 and nfsv3 filesystems provides no way to find the common root of all directory trees exported form the server with the same filesystem identifier. The practical result is that in struct super s_root for nfs s_root is not necessarily the root of the filesystem. The nfs mount code sets s_root to the root of the first subset of the nfs filesystem that the kernel mounts. This effects the dcache invalidation code in generic_shutdown_super currently called shrunk_dcache_for_umount and that code for years has gone through an additional list of dentries that might be dentry trees that need to be freed to accomodate nfs. When I wrote path_connected I did not realize nfs was so special, and it's hueristic for avoiding calling is_subdir can fail. The practical case where this fails is when there is a move of a directory from the subtree exposed by one nfs mount to the subtree exposed by another nfs mount. This move can happen either locally or remotely. With the remote case requiring that the move directory be cached before the move and that after the move someone walks the path to where the move directory now exists and in so doing causes the already cached directory to be moved in the dcache through the magic of d_splice_alias. If someone whose working directory is in the move directory or a subdirectory and now starts calling .. from the initial mount of nfs (where s_root == mnt_root), then path_connected as a heuristic will not bother with the is_subdir check. As s_root really is not the root of the nfs filesystem this heuristic is wrong, and the path may actually not be connected and path_connected can fail. The is_subdir function might be cheap enough that we can call it unconditionally. Verifying that will take some benchmarking and the result may not be the same on all kernels this fix needs to be backported to. So I am avoiding that for now. Filesystems with snapshots such as nilfs and btrfs do something similar. But as the directory tree of the snapshots are disjoint from one another and from the main directory tree rename won't move things between them and this problem will not occur.

dentry name snapshots

2017-08-26T01:14:48Z

commit 49d31c2f389acfe83417083e1208422b4091cd9e upstream. take_dentry_name_snapshot() takes a safe snapshot of dentry name; if the name is a short one, it gets copied into caller-supplied structure, otherwise an extra reference to external name is grabbed (those are never modified). In either case the pointer to stable string is stored into the same structure. dentry must be held by the caller of take_dentry_name_snapshot(), but may be freely dropped afterwards - the snapshot will stay until destroyed by release_dentry_name_snapshot(). Intended use: struct name_snapshot s; take_dentry_name_snapshot(&s, dentry); ... access s.name ... release_dentry_name_snapshot(&s); Replaces fsnotify_oldname_...(), gets used in fsnotify to obtain the name to pass down with event.

atomic_open(): fix the handling of create_error

2016-06-15T20:29:29Z

commit 10c64cea04d3c75c306b3f990586ffb343b63287 upstream. * if we have a hashed negative dentry and either CREAT|EXCL on r/o filesystem, or CREAT|TRUNC on r/o filesystem, or CREAT|EXCL with failing may_o_create(), we should fail with EROFS or the error may_o_create() has returned, but not ENOENT. Which is what the current code ends up returning. * if we have CREAT|TRUNC hitting a regular file on a read-only filesystem, we can't fail with EROFS here. At the very least, not until we'd done follow_managed() - we might have a writable file (or a device, for that matter) bound on top of that one. Moreover, the code downstream will see that O_TRUNC and attempt to grab the write access (*after* following possible mount), so if we really should fail with EROFS, it will happen. No need to do that inside atomic_open(). The real logics is much simpler than what the current code is trying to do - if we decided to go for simple lookup, ended up with a negative dentry *and* had create_error set, fail with create_error. No matter whether we'd got that negative dentry from lookup_real() or had found it in dcache.

do_last(): don't let a bogus return value from ->open() et.al. to confuse us

vfs: Test for and handle paths that are unreachable from their mnt_root

2015-10-06T10:52:30Z

commit 397d425dc26da728396e66d392d5dcb8dac30c37 upstream. In rare cases a directory can be renamed out from under a bind mount. In those cases without special handling it becomes possible to walk up the directory tree to the root dentry of the filesystem and down from the root dentry to every other file or directory on the filesystem. Like division by zero .. from an unconnected path can not be given a useful semantic as there is no predicting at which path component the code will realize it is unconnected. We certainly can not match the current behavior as the current behavior is a security hole. Therefore when encounting .. when following an unconnected path return -ENOENT. - Add a function path_connected to verify path->dentry is reachable from path->mnt.mnt_root. AKA to validate that rename did not do something nasty to the bind mount. To avoid races path_connected must be called after following a path component to it's next path component.
