  Hmm, looks like selinux is not showing it's mount options in
  /proc/mounts.  Well, actually there's no infrastructure for it either.
  Here's a template patch (completely untested).
 
 I think the intent is to use the security_sb_get_mnt_opts() hook for
 this purpose.

It was.  I already knew about this issue and its 'on my list.'  Although
I guess we need a something ?new LSM hook? which will translate the
sb_get_mnt_opts stuff into a single text string.  Or I guess really that
can be done in you sb_show_options and I can just use sb_get_mnt_opts
under the covers.  Anyway, unrelated issue that will get fixed as soon
as this real BUG() is fixed.

NFS/LSM: allow NFS to control all of its own mount options

2008-02-19 Thread Eric Paris
In the current code (approved by SELinux and NFS people in 2004) SELinux
tries to understand NFS's binary mount data.  This blows up in the face
of things like nohide mounts which don't use struct nfs_mount_data and I
assume just looking at the code that things don't work since NFS moved
to using nfs_parsed_mount_data as its default binary mount data blob.

This patch moves all of the ownership of the mount options into NFS.  It
brings the text based mount options capabilities up to the same level of
support which existed in version 6 of the old binary mount data from
userspace.  I am not looking at NFSv4 at the moment and the only mount
option this is supporting is context= (just like the old binary support)

Basically this patch causes NFS to make use of the new LSM hooks
security_sb_set_mnt_opts() and security_sb_clone_mnt_opts().  We do this
in the NFS get_sb() calls so that security settings are set explicitly
by NFS before they are set by the generic vfs security hooks which
handle filesystems which use text mount data.

We need to push this for 2.6.25 since at the moment SELinux(or SMACK) +
nohide mounts cause security_sb_copy_mount_data() to copy one page of
mount data starting at the struct nfs_clone_mount_data on the stack.  If
the stack doesn't span 2 pages we run off the end of the stack and hit a
page fault BUG().  Not sure why this didn't happen for me in 2.6.24, but
my guess is the stack size is significantly smaller for this operation
in 2.6.25 so the window is just bigger.

I tested mounting using both the version 6 binary mount data from
userspace and using the text mount options in a simple program I wrote
to call mount directly.  I was able to correctly set the selinux context
of my mounts and of clone mounts like those created by nohide exports.

This also fixes the BUG() in SMACK code because of the VFS change.
SMACK may want to move to a BUG_ON() like I do in the
selinux_sb_copy_data code just to make it clear binary mount data is not
expected, but I'll leave that up to you.

  yes but if you cat  /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, it returns in base 10.
  
  sysfs should probably be tuned to output it in a preferred base.

  Folks,
  
  I just updated a git tree and started getting errors on a
  copy_keys macro warning.
  
  The code I've been working on uses a -copy_keys() method for
  copying the keys in a btree block from one place to another. I've
  been working on this code for a while
  (http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2007-11/msg00046.html) and keep the
  tree I'm working in reletively up to date (lags linus by a couple of
  weeks at most). The update I did this afternoon gave a conflict
  warning with the macro in include/linux/key.h.
  
  Given that I'm not directly including key.h anywhere in the XFS
  code, I'm getting the namespace polluted indirectly from some other
  include that is necessary.
  
  As it turns out, this commit from 13 days ago:
  
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=7cd94146cd504016315608e297219f9fb7b1413b
  
  included security.h in mm.h and that is how I'm seeing the namespace
  poisoning coming from key.h when !CONFIG_KEY.
  
  Including security.h in mm.h means much wider includes for pretty
  much the entire kernel, and it opens up namespace issues like this
  that never previously existed.
  
  The patch below (only tested for !CONFIG_KEYS  !CONFIG_SECURITY)
  moves security.h into the mmap.c and nommu.c files that need it so
  it doesn't end up with kernel wide scope.
  
  Comments?
 
 The idea with this placement was to keep memory management code with other 
 similar code, rather than pushing it into security.h, where it does not 
 functionally belong.
 
 Something to not also is that you can't depend on security.h not being 
 included all over the place, as LSM does touch a lot of the kernel.  
 Unecessarily including it is bad, of course.
 
 I'm not sure I understand your namespace pollution issue, either.
 
 In any case, I think the right solution is not to include security.h at 
 all in mm.h, as it is only being done to get a declaration for 
 mmap_min_addr.
 
 How about this, instead ?

[PATCH] Allow Kconfig to set default mmap_min_addr protection

Since it was decided that low memory protection from userspace couldn't
be turned on by default add a Kconfig option to allow users/distros to
set a default at compile time.  This value is still tunable after boot

Re: [PATCH -v3] SELinux: Add get, set, and cloning of superblock security information

2007-11-28 Thread Eric Paris
Any complaints or questions left here?  I've got more people reporting
problems with NFS/SELinux and this is the first (and hardest) step to
making NFS and any genic LSM play nicely.  If there are not any
problems how should this be pushed to linus?  Through James Morris's
git tree?  Through Chris Wright's LSM tree?

And I did get a:
Acked-by:  Stephen D. Smalley [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Which I don't think ever appeared on all the lists for everyone interested.

-Eric


 Adds security_get_sb_mnt_opts, security_set_sb_mnt_opts, and
 security_clont_sb_mnt_opts to the LSM and to SELinux.  This will allow
 filesystems to directly own and control all of their mount options if
 they so choose.  This interface deals only with option identifiers and
 strings so it should generic enough for any LSM which may come in the
 future.  Filesystems which pass text mount data around in the kernel
 (almost all of them) need not currently make use of this interface for
 SELinux sake since it will still parse those strings as it always has.

 An LSM would need to implement these functions only if they had mount
 time options, such as selinux has context= or fscontext=.  If the LSM
 has no mount time options they could simply not implement and let the
 dummy ops take care of things.

 A LSM other than SELinux would need to define new option numbers in
 security.h (or could reuse if they have the same basic meaning I guess)
 and any FS which decides to own there own security options would need to
 be patched to use this new interface for every possible LSM.  This is
 because it was stated to me very clearly that LSM's should not attempt
 to understand FS mount data and the burdon to understand security should
 be in the FS which owns the options.

 For now the only forseen user of this interface is NFS.  NFS uses a
 binary blob in kernel for mount data (it uses this blob irrespective of
 the binary vs. text mount options it can get from userspace.)  NFS must
 then set its own mount options explicitly so we need some interface for
 it to do so.

[PATCH -v3] SELinux: Add get, set, and cloning of superblock security information

2007-11-09 Thread Eric Paris
Adds security_get_sb_mnt_opts, security_set_sb_mnt_opts, and
security_clont_sb_mnt_opts to the LSM and to SELinux.  This will allow
filesystems to directly own and control all of their mount options if
they so choose.  This interface deals only with option identifiers and
strings so it should generic enough for any LSM which may come in the
future.  Filesystems which pass text mount data around in the kernel
(almost all of them) need not currently make use of this interface for
SELinux sake since it will still parse those strings as it always has.

An LSM would need to implement these functions only if they had mount
time options, such as selinux has context= or fscontext=.  If the LSM
has no mount time options they could simply not implement and let the
dummy ops take care of things.  

A LSM other than SELinux would need to define new option numbers in
security.h (or could reuse if they have the same basic meaning I guess)
and any FS which decides to own there own security options would need to
be patched to use this new interface for every possible LSM.  This is
because it was stated to me very clearly that LSM's should not attempt
to understand FS mount data and the burdon to understand security should
be in the FS which owns the options.

For now the only forseen user of this interface is NFS.  NFS uses a
binary blob in kernel for mount data (it uses this blob irrespective of
the binary vs. text mount options it can get from userspace.)  NFS must
then set its own mount options explicitly so we need some interface for
it to do so.

Here you walk this page of binary NFS data looking for your stuff.
And while I assume its unlikely you find anything you like on this
page and go wrong, its not impossible.

SELinux tried to solve this problem right here in its equivalent
function years ago, but it has since been despised by the FS people
and now i'm trying to make everyone happy.  I'd love you comment on
how you plan to support NFS and other filesystems which use
