Do we have to take a reference on the user namespace assuming one can open
the file, pass the fd down the hierarchy, and then the user namespace with
the opened file goes away? Or is there anything else that keeps the user
namespace alive?
No, we don't. When ima_policy_open() is called we do current_user_ns()
but that will be guaranteed to be identical to filp->f_cred->user_ns.
And f_cred is a reference that has been taken when the vfs allocated a
struct file for this .open call so won't go away until the last fput.

My proposal is also too complicated, I think.
(The booster is giving me the same side-effects as my second shot so
this looks like two good days of fever and headache. So I'll use that as
an excuse. :))

Your patch series as it stands has a bit of a security issue with those
get_current_ns() calls across differnet file/seq_file operations.

You have to make an architectural decision, I think. I see two sensible
options:
1. The relevant ima_ns that .open/.read/.write operate on is always taken
    to be the ima_ns of the filesystem's userns, i.e.
    sb->s_user_ns->ima_ns.
    This - but I'm not an ima person - makes the most sense to me and the
    semantics are straightforward. If I write to a file to alter some
    policy then I expect the ima namespace of the user namespace to be
    affected that the securityfs instance was mounted in.
2. The relevant ima_ns that .open/.read/.write operate on is always
    taken to be the one of the opener. I don't really like that as that
    gets weird if for some complicated reason the caller is not located
    in the userns the filesystem was mounted in (weird mount propagation
    scenario or sm). It also feels strange to operate on an ima_ns that's
    different from s_user_ns->ima_ns in a securityfs instance.

We have this situation because one can setns() to another mount namespaces but the data shown by SecurityFS lives in a user namespace, right? And now we need to decide whether to affect the data in the user namespace  that did the open (option 2) or to which the SecurityFS belongs to (option 1). If we were to open a regular file it would be option 1, so we should probably not break that existing semantic and also choose option 1 unless there one wasn't allowed to choose the user namespace the SecurityFS files belonged to then it should be option 2 but then we have file descriptor passing where 'being allowed' can change depending on who is reading/writing a file... Is there anything that would prevent us from setns()'ing to that target user namespace so that we would now see that of a user namespace that we are not allowed to see?

Following man page of setns:

"   User namespaces
              A process reassociating itself with a user namespace must
              have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability in the target user
              namespace.  (This necessarily implies that it is only
              possible to join a descendant user namespace.)  Upon
              successfully joining a user namespace, a process is
              granted all capabilities in that namespace, regardless of
              its user and group IDs."


So if we choose option 1 maybe we have to test for this capability upon every read/write from/to a file?


   Stefan



So I think I would propose you do sm:

The relevant ima_ns that .open/.read/.write operate on is always taken to be
the ima_ns of the filesystem's userns, i.e.  sb->s_user_ns->ima_ns. This - but
I'm not an ima person - makes the most sense to me and the semantics are
straightforward. If I write to a file to alter some policy then I expect the
ima namespace of the user namespace to be affected that the securityfs instance
was mounted in.
