      evm: posix acls modify i_mode · bf6d0f5d
      Mimi Zohar authored
      The posix xattr acls are 'system' prefixed, which normally would not
      affect security.evm.  An interesting side affect of writing posix xattr
      acls is their modifying of the i_mode, which is included in security.evm.
      
      This patch updates security.evm when posix xattr acls are written.

      evm_protect_xattr unnecessarily validates the current security.evm
      integrity, before updating non-evm protected extended attributes
      and other file metadata. This patch limits validating the current
      security.evm integrity to evm protected metadata.

      evm: remove TCG_TPM dependency · 1d714057
      Mimi Zohar authored
      All tristates selected by EVM(boolean) are forced to be builtin, except
      in the TCG_TPM(tristate) dependency case. Arnaud Lacombe summarizes the
      Kconfig bug as, "So it would seem direct dependency state influence the
      state of reverse dependencies.."  For a detailed explanation, refer to
      Arnaud Lacombe's posting http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/23/498.
      
      With the "encrypted-keys: remove trusted-keys dependency" patch, EVM
      can now be built without a dependency on TCG_TPM.  The trusted-keys
      dependency requires trusted-keys to either be builtin or not selected.
      This dependency will prevent the boolean/tristate mismatch from
      occuring.

      KEYS: Correctly destroy key payloads when their keytype is removed · 0c061b57
      David Howells authored
      unregister_key_type() has code to mark a key as dead and make it unavailable in
      one loop and then destroy all those unavailable key payloads in the next loop.
      However, the loop to mark keys dead renders the key undetectable to the second
      loop by changing the key type pointer also.
      
      Fix this by the following means:
      
       (1) The key code has two garbage collectors: one deletes unreferenced keys and
           the other alters keyrings to delete links to old dead, revoked and expired
           keys.  They can end up holding each other up as both want to scan the key
           serial tree under spinlock.  Combine these into a single routine.
      
       (2) Move the dead key marking, dead link removal and dead key removal into the
           garbage collector as a three phase process running over the three cycles
           of the normal garbage collection procedure.  This is tracked by the
           KEY_GC_REAPING_DEAD_1, _2 and _3 state flags.
      
           unregister_key_type() then just unlinks the key type from the list, wakes
           up the garbage collector and waits for the third phase to complete.
      
       (3) Downgrade the key types sem in unregister_key_type() once it has deleted
           the key type from the list so that it doesn't block the keyctl() syscall.
      
       (4) Dead keys that cannot be simply removed in the third phase have their
           payloads destroyed with the key's semaphore write-locked to prevent
           interference by the keyctl() syscall.  There should be no in-kernel users
           of dead keys of that type by the point of unregistration, though keyctl()
           may be holding a reference.
      
       (5) Only perform timer recalculation in the GC if the timer actually expired.
           If it didn't, we'll get another cycle when it goes off - and if the key
           that actually triggered it has been removed, it's not a problem.
      
       (6) Only garbage collect link if the timer expired or if we're doing dead key
           clean up phase 2.
      
       (7) As only key_garbage_collector() is permitted to use rb_erase() on the key
           serial tree, it doesn't need to revalidate its cursor after dropping the
           spinlock as the node the cursor points to must still exist in the tree.
      
       (8) Drop the spinlock in the GC if there is contention on it or if we need to
           reschedule.  After dealing with that, get the spinlock again and resume
           scanning.
      
      This has been tested in the following ways:
      
       (1) Run the keyutils testsuite against it.
      
       (2) Using the AF_RXRPC and RxKAD modules to test keytype removal:
      
           Load the rxrpc_s key type:
      
      	# insmod /tmp/af-rxrpc.ko
      	# insmod /tmp/rxkad.ko
      
           Create a key (http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/listen.c):
      
      	# /tmp/listen &
      	[1] 8173
      
           Find the key:
      
      	# grep rxrpc_s /proc/keys
      	091086e1 I--Q--     1 perm 39390000     0     0 rxrpc_s   52:2
      
           Link it to a session keyring, preferably one with a higher serial number:
      
      	# keyctl link 0x20e36251 @s
      
           Kill the process (the key should remain as it's linked to another place):
      
      	# fg
      	/tmp/listen
      	^C
      
           Remove the key type:
      
      	rmmod rxkad
      	rmmod af-rxrpc
      
           This can be made a more effective test by altering the following part of
           the patch:
      
      	if (unlikely(gc_state & KEY_GC_REAPING_DEAD_2)) {
      		/* Make sure everyone revalidates their keys if we marked a
      		 * bunch as being dead and make sure all keyring ex-payloads
      		 * are destroyed.
      		 */
      		kdebug("dead sync");
      		synchronize_rcu();
      
           To call synchronize_rcu() in GC phase 1 instead.  That causes that the
           keyring's old payload content to hang around longer until it's RCU
           destroyed - which usually happens after GC phase 3 is complete.  This
           allows the destroy_dead_key branch to be tested.

      KEYS: Make the key reaper non-reentrant · b072e9bc
      David Howells authored
      Make the key reaper non-reentrant by sticking it on the appropriate system work
      queue when we queue it.  This will allow it to have global state and drop
      locks.  It should probably be non-reentrant already as it may spend a long time
      holding the key serial spinlock, and so multiple entrants can spend long
      periods of time just sitting there spinning, waiting to get the lock.

      CRED: Fix prepare_kernel_cred() to provide a new thread_group_cred struct · 012146d0
      David Howells authored
      Fix prepare_kernel_cred() to provide a new, separate thread_group_cred struct
      otherwise when using request_key() ____call_usermodehelper() calls
      umh_keys_init() with the new creds pointing to init_tgcred, which
      umh_keys_init() then blithely alters.
      
      The problem can be demonstrated by:
      
      	# keyctl request2 user a debug:a @s
      	249681132
      	# grep req /proc/keys
      	079906a5 I--Q--     1 perm 1f3f0000     0     0 keyring   _req.249681132: 1/4
      	38ef1626 IR----     1 expd 0b010000     0     0 .request_ key:ee1d4ec pid:4371 ci:1
      
      The keyring _req.XXXX should have gone away, but something (init_tgcred) is
      pinning it.
      
      That key actually requested can then be removed and a new one created:
      
      	# keyctl unlink 249681132
      	1 links removed
      	[root@andromeda ~]# grep req /proc/keys
      	116cecac IR----     1 expd 0b010000     0     0 .request_ key:eeb4911 pid:4379 ci:1
      	36d1cbf8 I--Q--     1 perm 1f3f0000     0     0 keyring   _req.250300689: 1/4
      
      which causes the old _req keyring to go away and a new one to take its place.
      
      This is a consequence of the changes in:
      
      	commit 87966996

      KEYS: keyctl_get_keyring_ID() should create a session keyring if create flag set · 3ecf1b4f
      David Howells authored
      The keyctl call:
      
      	keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, 1)
      
      should create a session keyring if the process doesn't have one of its own
      because the create flag argument is set - rather than subscribing to and
      returning the user-session keyring as:
      
      	keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, 0)
      
      will do.
      
      This can be tested by commenting out pam_keyinit in the /etc/pam.d files and
      running the following program a couple of times in a row:
      
      	#include <stdio.h>
      	#include <stdlib.h>
      	#include <keyutils.h>
      	int main(int argc, char *argv[])
      	{
      		key_serial_t uk, usk, sk, nsk;
      		uk  = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_USER_KEYRING, 0);
      		usk = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_USER_SESSION_KEYRING, 0);
      		sk  = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, 0);
      		nsk = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, 1);
      		printf("keys: %08x %08x %08x %08x\n", uk, usk, sk, nsk);
      		return 0;
      	}
      
      Without this patch, I see:
      
      	keys: 3975ddc7 119c0c66 119c0c66 119c0c66
      	keys: 3975ddc7 119c0c66 119c0c66 119c0c66

      As can be seen, the session keyring starts off the same as the user-session
      keyring each time, but with the patch a new session keyring is created when
      the create flag is set.

      KEYS: If install_session_keyring() is given a keyring, it should install it · 99599537
      David Howells authored
      If install_session_keyring() is given a keyring, it should install it rather
      than just creating a new one anyway.  This was accidentally broken in:
      
      	commit d84f4f99
      	Author: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
      	Date:   Fri Nov 14 10:39:23 2008 +1100
      	Subject: CRED: Inaugurate COW credentials
      
      The impact of that commit is that pam_keyinit no longer works correctly if
      'force' isn't specified against a login process. This is because:
      
      	keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, 0)
      
      now always creates a new session keyring and thus the check whether the session
      keyring and the user-session keyring are the same is always false.  This leads
      pam_keyinit to conclude that a session keyring is installed and it shouldn't be
      revoked by pam_keyinit here if 'revoke' is specified.
      
      Any system that specifies 'force' against pam_keyinit in the PAM configuration
      files for login methods (login, ssh, su -l, kdm, etc.) is not affected since
      that bypasses the broken check and forces the creation of a new session keyring
      anyway (for which the revoke flag is not cleared) - and any subsequent call to
      pam_keyinit really does have a session keyring already installed, and so the
      check works correctly there.
      
      Reverting to the previous behaviour will cause the kernel to subscribe the
      process to the user-session keyring as its session keyring if it doesn't have a
      session keyring of its own.  pam_keyinit will detect this and install a new
      session keyring anyway (and won't clear the revert flag).
      
      This can be tested by commenting out pam_keyinit in the /etc/pam.d files and
      running the following program a couple of times in a row:
      
      	#include <stdio.h>
      	#include <stdlib.h>
      	#include <keyutils.h>
      	int main(int argc, char *argv[])
      	{
      		key_serial_t uk, usk, sk;
      		uk = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_USER_KEYRING, 0);
      		usk = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_USER_SESSION_KEYRING, 0);
      		sk = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, 0);
      		printf("keys: %08x %08x %08x\n", uk, usk, sk);
      		return 0;
      	}
      
      Without the patch, I see:
      
      	keys: 3884e281 24c4dfcf 22825f8e
      	keys: 3884e281 24c4dfcf 068772be
      
      With the patch, I see:
      
      	keys: 26be9c83 0e755ce0 0e755ce0
      	keys: 26be9c83 0e755ce0 0e755ce0
      
      As can be seen, with the patch, the session keyring is the same as the
      user-session keyring each time; without the patch a new session keyring is
      generated each time.
