[RFC PATCH v15 11/21] block|security: add LSM blob to block_device

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

 



From: Deven Bowers <deven.desai@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Some block devices have valuable security properties that is only
accessible during the creation time.

For example, when creating a dm-verity block device, the dm-verity's
roothash and roothash signature, which are extreme important security
metadata, are passed to the kernel. However, the roothash will be saved
privately in dm-verity, which prevents the security subsystem to easily
access that information. Worse, in the current implementation the
roothash signature will be discarded after the verification, making it
impossible to utilize the roothash signature by the security subsystem.

With this patch, an LSM blob is added to the block_device structure.
This enables the security subsystem to store security-sensitive data
related to block devices within the security blob. For example, LSM can
use the new LSM blob to save the roothash signature of a dm-verity,
and LSM can make access decision based on the data inside the signature,
like the signer certificate.

The implementation follows the same approach used for security blobs in
other structures like struct file, struct inode, and struct superblock.
The initialization of the security blob occurs after the creation of the
struct block_device, performed by the security subsystem. Similarly, the
security blob is freed by the security subsystem before the struct
block_device is deallocated or freed.

    the additions to dm-verity/fs, and the consumption of
    the additions.

    topic:
      + New LSM hook

      + Consumption of hook inside LSM.

  + change return of security_bdev_alloc / security_bdev_setsecurity
    to LSM_RET_DEFAULT instead of 0.

    setsecurity hooks.
