[PATCH v5 3/3] openat2: add OA2_CRED_INHERIT flag

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This flag performs the open operation with the fs credentials
(fsuid, fsgid, group_info) that were in effect when dir_fd was opened.
dir_fd must be opened with O_CRED_ALLOW flag for this to work.
This allows the process to pre-open some directories and then
change eUID (and all other UIDs/GIDs) to a less-privileged user,
retaining the ability to open/create files within these directories.

Design goal:
The idea is to provide a very light-weight sandboxing, where the
process, without the use of any heavy-weight techniques like chroot
within namespaces, can restrict the access to the set of pre-opened
directories.
This patch is just a first step to such sandboxing. If things go
well, in the future the same extension can be added to more syscalls.
These should include at least unlinkat(), renameat2() and the
not-yet-upstreamed setxattrat().

Security considerations:
- Only the bare minimal set of credentials is overridden:
  fsuid, fsgid and group_info. The rest, for example capabilities,
  are not overridden to avoid unneeded security risks.
- To avoid sandboxing escape, this patch makes sure the restricted
  lookup modes are used. Namely, RESOLVE_BENEATH or RESOLVE_IN_ROOT.
- Magic /proc symlinks are discarded, as suggested by
  Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx>
- O_CRED_ALLOW fds cannot be passed via unix socket and are always
  closed on exec() to prevent "unsuspecting userspace" from not being
  able to fully drop privs.

Use cases:
Virtual machines that deal with untrusted code, can use that
instead of a more heavy-weighted approaches.
Currently the approach is being tested on a dosemu2 VM.
