| * | selinux: Fix check for xfrm selinux context algorithmSteffen Klassert2011-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | selinux_xfrm_sec_ctx_alloc accidentally checks the xfrm domain of interpretation against the selinux context algorithm. This patch fixes this by checking ctx_alg against the selinux context algorithm.

Because ctl_tables don't have a proc_dir_entry, we did not label /proc/sys/ inodes any more. To achieve this the /proc/sys/ inodes were marked private and private inodes were ignored by selinux. commit bbaca6c2e7ef0f663bc31be4dad7cf530f6c4962 [PATCH] selinux: enhance selinux to always ignore private inodes commit 86a71dbd3e81e8870d0f0e56b87875f57e58222b [PATCH] sysctl: hide the sysctl proc inodes from selinux Access control checks have been done by means of a special sysctl hook that was called for read/write accesses to any /proc/sys/ entry. We don't have to do this because, instead of walking the proc_dir_entry tree we can walk the dentry tree (as done in this patch). With this patch: * we don't mark /proc/sys/ inodes as private * we don't need the sysclt security hook * we walk the dentry tree to find the path to the inode. We have to strip the PID in /proc/PID/ entries that have a proc_dir_entry because selinux does not know how to label paths like '/1/net/rpc/nfsd.fh' (and defaults to 'proc_t' labeling). Selinux does know of '/net/rpc/nfsd.fh' (and applies the 'sysctl_rpc_t' label). PID stripping from the path was done implicitly in the previous code because the proc_dir_entry tree had the root in '/net' in the example from above. The dentry tree has the root in '/1'.

| * | SELinux: Use dentry name in new object labelingEric Paris2011-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently SELinux has rules which label new objects according to 3 criteria. The label of the process creating the object, the label of the parent directory, and the type of object (reg, dir, char, block, etc.) This patch adds a 4th criteria, the dentry name, thus we can distinguish between creating a file in an etc_t directory called shadow and one called motd. There is no file globbing, regex parsing, or anything mystical. Either the policy exactly (strcmp) matches the dentry name of the object or it doesn't. This patch has no changes from today if policy does not implement the new rules. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * | fs/vfs/security: pass last path component to LSM on inode creationEric Paris2011-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SELinux would like to implement a new labeling behavior of newly created inodes. We currently label new inodes based on the parent and the creating process. This new behavior would also take into account the name of the new object when deciding the new label. This is not the (supposed) full path, just the last component of the path. This is very useful because creating /etc/shadow is different than creating /etc/passwd but the kernel hooks are unable to differentiate these operations. We currently require that userspace realize it is doing some difficult operation like that and than userspace jumps through SELinux hoops to get things set up correctly. This patch does not implement new behavior, that is obviously contained in a seperate SELinux patch, but it does pass the needed name down to the correct LSM hook. If no such name exists it is fine to pass NULL. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

| * CRED: Fix BUG() upon security_cred_alloc_blank() failureTetsuo Handa2011-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In cred_alloc_blank() since 2.6.32, abort_creds(new) is called with new->security == NULL and new->magic == 0 when security_cred_alloc_blank() returns an error. As a result, BUG() will be triggered if SELinux is enabled or CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS=y. If CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS=y, BUG() is called from __invalid_creds() because cred->magic == 0. Failing that, BUG() is called from selinux_cred_free() because selinux_cred_free() is not expecting cred->security == NULL. This does not affect smack_cred_free(), tomoyo_cred_free() or apparmor_cred_free(). Fix these bugs by (1) Set new->magic before calling security_cred_alloc_blank(). (2) Handle null cred->security in creds_are_invalid() and selinux_cred_free().

| * | SELinux: define permissions for DCB netlink messagesEric Paris2010-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 2f90b865 added two new netlink message types to the netlink route socket.

| * | selinux: cache sidtab_context_to_sid resultsEric Paris2010-12-07

This patch implements a cache of 3 entries which is checked before we do a full context_to_sid lookup. On one system this showed over a x3 improvement in the number of inodes that could be created per second and around a 20% improvement on another system. Any time we look up the same context string sucessivly (imagine ls -lZ) we should hit this cache hot. A cache miss should have a relatively minor affect on performance next to doing the full table search. All operations on the cache are done COMPLETELY lockless. We know that all struct sidtab_node objects created will never be deleted until a new policy is loaded thus we never have to worry about a pointer being dereferenced. Since we also know that pointer assignment is atomic we know that the cache will always have valid pointers. Given this information we implement a FIFO cache in an array of 3 pointers. Every result (whether a cache hit or table lookup) will be places in the 0 spot of the cache and the rest of the entries moved down one spot. The 3rd entry will be lost. Races are possible and are even likely to happen. Lets assume that 4 tasks are hitting sidtab_context_to_sid. The first task checks against the first entry in the cache and it is a miss. Now lets assume a second task updates the cache with a new entry. This will push the first entry back to the second spot. Now the first task might check against the second entry (which it already checked) and will miss again. Now say some third task updates the cache and push the second entry to the third spot. The first task my check the third entry (for the third time!) and again have a miss. At which point it will just do a full table lookup. No big deal! Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
| * | SELinux: do not compute transition labels on mountpoint labeled filesystemsEric Paris2010-12-02

It shouldn't do that. It should just use the mount point label always and no matter what.

* SELinux: allow userspace to read policy back out of the kernelEric Paris2010-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | There is interest in being able to see what the actual policy is that was loaded into the kernel. The patch creates a new selinuxfs file /selinux/policy which can be read by userspace. The actual policy that is loaded into the kernel will be written back out to userspace.

* SELinux: drop useless (and incorrect) AVTAB_MAX_SIZEEric Paris2010-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | AVTAB_MAX_SIZE was a define which was supposed to be used in userspace to define a maximally sized avtab when userspace wasn't sure how big of a table it needed. It doesn't make sense in the kernel since we always know our table sizes. The only place it is used we have a more appropiately named define called AVTAB_MAX_HASH_BUCKETS, use that instead.

* security: secid_to_secctx returns len when data is NULLEric Paris2010-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the (long ago) interface change to have the secid_to_secctx functions do the string allocation instead of having the caller do the allocation we lost the ability to query the security server for the length of the upcoming string. The SECMARK code would like to allocate a netlink skb with enough length to hold the string but it is just too unclean to do the string allocation twice or to do the allocation the first time and hold onto the string and slen. This patch adds the ability to call security_secid_to_secctx() with a NULL data pointer and it will just set the slen pointer.

* secmark: make secmark object handling genericEric Paris2010-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now secmark has lots of direct selinux calls. Use all LSM calls and remove all SELinux specific knowledge. The only SELinux specific knowledge we leave is the mode. The only point is to make sure that other LSMs at least test this generic code before they assume it works.

This is not only meaningless, but also make a harmful result if caller pass a static variable. This patch remove policy and sched_param parameter from security_task_setscheduler() becuase none of security module is using it.

* selinux: really fix dependency causing parallel compile failure.Paul Gortmaker2010-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While the previous change to the selinux Makefile reduced the window significantly for this failure, it is still possible to see a compile failure where cpp starts processing selinux files before the auto generated flask.h file is completed. This is easily reproduced by adding the following temporary change to expose the issue everytime: - cmd_flask = scripts/selinux/genheaders/genheaders ... + cmd_flask = sleep 30 ; scripts/selinux/genheaders/genheaders ... This failure happens because the creation of the object files in the ss subdir also depends on flask.h. So simply incorporate them into the parent Makefile, as the ss/Makefile really doesn't do anything unique. With this change, compiling of all selinux files is dependent on completion of the header file generation, and this test case with the "sleep 30" now confirms it is functioning as expected.

* selinux: fix parallel compile errorPaul Gortmaker2010-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Selinux has an autogenerated file, "flask.h" which is included by two other selinux files. The current makefile has a single dependency on the first object file in the selinux-y list, assuming that will get flask.h generated before anyone looks for it, but that assumption breaks down in a "make -jN" situation and you get: selinux/selinuxfs.c:35: fatal error: flask.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. remake[9]: *** [security/selinux/selinuxfs.o] Error 1 Since flask.h is included by security.h which in turn is included nearly everywhere, make the dependency apply to all of the selinux-y list of objs.

* selinux: fast status update interface (/selinux/status)KaiGai Kohei2010-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides a new /selinux/status entry which allows applications read-only mmap(2). This region reflects selinux_kernel_status structure in kernel space. struct selinux_kernel_status { u32 length; /* length of this structure */ u32 sequence; /* sequence number of seqlock logic */ u32 enforcing; /* current setting of enforcing mode */ u32 policyload; /* times of policy reloaded */ u32 deny_unknown; /* current setting of deny_unknown */ }; When userspace object manager caches access control decisions provided by SELinux, it needs to invalidate the cache on policy reload and setenforce to keep consistency. However, the applications need to check the kernel state for each accesses on userspace avc, or launch a background worker process. In heuristic, frequency of invalidation is much less than frequency of making access control decision, so it is annoying to invoke a system call to check we don't need to invalidate the userspace cache. If we can use a background worker thread, it allows to receive invalidation messages from the kernel. But it requires us an invasive coding toward the base application in some cases; E.g, when we provide a feature performing with SELinux as a plugin module, it is unwelcome manner to launch its own worker thread from the module. If we could map /selinux/status to process memory space, application can know updates of selinux status; policy reload or setenforce. A typical application checks selinux_kernel_status::sequence when it tries to reference userspace avc. If it was changed from the last time when it checked userspace avc, it means something was updated in the kernel space. Then, the application can reset userspace avc or update current enforcing mode, without any system call invocations. This sequence number is updated according to the seqlock logic, so we need to wait for a while if it is odd number.
