From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@xxxxxxxxxx> One of the major goals of LSM stacking is to run multiple LSMs side by side without interfering with each other. The ultimate decision will depend on individual LSM decision. Several changes need to be made to the LSM infrastructure to be able to support that. This patch set tackles one of them: gives to each LSM the ability to specify one or multiple xattrs to be set at inode creation time and, at the same time, gives to EVM the ability to access all those xattrs and calculate the HMAC on them. The first problem that this patch set addresses is to make the inode_init_security hook definition suitable to use with EVM which, unlike other LSMs, needs to have visibility of all xattrs and not only the one that the LSM infrastructure passes to the LSM to be set. The solution is to replace in the inode_init_security definition the name/value/len parameters with the beginning of the array containing all xattrs set by LSMs. Due to security_old_inode_init_security() API limitation of setting only one xattr, it has been dropped and the remaining users, ocfs2 and reiserfs, switch to security_inode_init_security(). However, due to the complexity of the changes required to fully exploit the ability of security_inode_init_security() to set multiple xattrs, those users can still set only one xattr (the first set in the xattr array) where previously they called security_old_inode_init_security(). Furthermore, while EVM is invoked unlike before, its xattr will not be set as it would not be the first set in the xattr array, or if it is the first, there would not be protected xattrs to calculate the HMAC on. Reiserfs, regardless of the switch had anyway another problem: it was setting xattrs without the security prefix in the xattr name. That has been solved too, by writing the full xattr name in a temporary buffer, before passing it to the function which actually writes the xattr. The second problem this patch set addresses is the limitation of the call_int_hook() of stopping the loop when the return value from a hook implementation is not zero. Unfortunately, for the inode_init_security hook it is a legitimate case to return -EOPNOTSUPP, but this would not necessarily mean that there is an error to report to the LSM infrastructure but just that an LSM does not will to set an xattr. Other LSMs should be still consulted as well. The solution for this specific case is to replace the call_int_hook() with the loop itself, so that -EOPNOTSUPP can be ignored. In addition, the default return value of inode_init_security had also to be changed to -EOPNOTSUPP, so that the whole security_inode_init_security() does not fail due to BPF LSM returning zero and not providing an xattr. Next, this patch set removes the limitation of creating only two xattrs, one by an active LSM and another by EVM. This patch set extends the reservation mechanism of the LSM infrastructure, to allow each LSM to request one or multiple xattrs. While this could potentially lead to reaching the filesystem limits of number/size of the xattrs, it seems not an issue that need to be solved by the LSM infrastructure but by the filesystems themselves. Currently, if the limit is reached, the only workaround would be to use fewer LSMs. The reservation mechanism concept would have made it very easy for LSMs to position themselves correctly in the xattr array, as the LSM infrastructure at initialization time changes the number of xattrs requested by each LSM with an offset. However, this opens for the possibility of having gaps in the xattr array, due to the fact that an LSM can request xattr slots to the LSM infrastructure but not fill them (if it was loaded but not initialized). Instead, the decision was to add an additional parameter to the inode_init_security_hook, the number of filled slots in the xattr array, which each LSM is expected to update for each xattr it provides. In this way, the next LSM starts to fill after the last filled slot, regardless of whether previous LSMs were initialized or not. SELinux, Smack and EVM have been updated to use this new mechanism. Finally, this patch set modifies the evm_inode_init_security() definition to be compatible with the inode_init_security hook definition and adds support for scanning the whole xattr array and for calculating the HMAC on all xattrs provided by LSMs. This patch set has been tested by introducing several instances of a TestLSM (some providing an xattr, some not, one with a wrong implementation to see how the LSM infrastructure handles it, one providing multiple xattrs and another providing an xattr but in a disabled state). The patch is not included in this set but it is available here: https://github.com/robertosassu/linux/commit/8fba3224e3f7698114ae721fb8e899d322cc1f4c The test, added to ima-evm-utils, is available here: https://github.com/robertosassu/ima-evm-utils/blob/evm-multiple-lsms-v9-devel-v2/tests/evm_multiple_lsms.test The test takes a UML kernel built by Github Actions and launches it several times, each time with a different combination of LSMs and filesystems (ext4, reiserfs, ocfs2). After boot, it first checks that there is an xattr for each LSM providing it (for reiserfs and ocfs2 just the first LSM), and then (for ext4) calculates the HMAC in user space and compares it with the HMAC calculated by EVM in kernel space. A test report can be obtained here: https://github.com/robertosassu/ima-evm-utils/actions/runs/4553749294/jobs/8030902168 The patch set has been tested with both the SElinux and Smack test suites.
