[PATCH 2/3] namei: implement AT_THIS_ROOT chroot-like path resolution

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

 



The primary motivation for the need for this flag is container runtimes
which have to interact with malicious root filesystems in the host
namespaces. One of the first requirements for a container runtime to be
secure against a malicious rootfs is that they correctly scope symlinks
(that is, they should be scoped as though they are chroot(2)ed into the
container's rootfs) and ".."-style paths. The already-existing AT_XDEV
and AT_NO_PROCLINKS help defend against other potential attacks in a
malicious rootfs scenario.

Currently most container runtimes try to do this resolution in
userspace[1], causing many potential race conditions. In addition, the
"obvious" alternative (actually performing a {ch,pivot_}root(2))
requires a fork+exec which is *very* costly if necessary for every
filesystem operation involving a container.

The most significant change in semantics with AT_THIS_ROOT is that
*at(2) syscalls now no longer have the property that an absolute
pathname causes the dirfd to be ignored completely (if LOOKUP_CHROOT is
specified). The reasoning behind this is that AT_THIS_ROOT necessarily
has to chroot-scope symlinks with absolute paths to dirfd, and so doing
it for the base path seems to be the most consistent behaviour (and also
avoids foot-gunning users who want to chroot-scope paths that might be
absolute).

Currently this is only enabled for the stat(2) and openat(2) family (the
latter has its own flag O_THISROOT with the same semantics). Ideally
this flag would be supported by all *at(2) syscalls, but this will
require adding flags arguments to many of them (and will be done in a
separate patchset).
