From: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@xxxxxxxxxx>
Applications that hold secrets and wish to avoid them leaking can use
mlock() to prevent the page from being pushed out to swap and
MADV_DONTDUMP to prevent it from being included in core dumps. Applications
can also use atexit() handlers to overwrite secrets on application exit.
However, if an attacker can reboot the system into another OS, they can
dump the contents of RAM and extract secrets. We can avoid this by setting
CONFIG_RESET_ATTACK_MITIGATION on UEFI systems in order to request that the
firmware wipe the contents of RAM before booting another OS, but this means
rebooting takes a *long* time - the expected behaviour is for a clean
shutdown to remove the request after scrubbing secrets from RAM in order to
avoid this.
Unfortunately, if an application exits uncleanly, its secrets may still be
present in RAM. This can't be easily fixed in userland (eg, if the OOM
killer decides to kill a process holding secrets, we're not going to be able
to avoid that), so this patch adds a new flag (MADV_WIPEONRELEASE) to
madvise() to allow userland to request that the kernel clear the covered
pages on process exit (clean or otherwise).
If a process clone()s, pages may end up being simultaneously owned by
multiple processes. In this case the parent process may exit before the
child, in which case the pages would not be cleared because the map count
would still be non-zero. This could result in surprising outcomes, so
instead all CoW pages are forcibly copied on fork() and madvise(). Child
processes will still receive copies of the secrets and must be trusted to
also ensure that they are wiped - this can be avoided if the parent also
sets MADV_WIPEONFORK on these regions to ensure that the child receives
clean pages.
Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@xxxxxxxxxx>
---
Further updates based on feedback - we now forcibly copy any CoW pages
in MADV_WIPEONRELEASE areas, and I've moved the wiping logic to
page_remove_rmap() and page_remove_anon_compound_rmap(). I know more
about mm than I did when I started, which means I'm probably more
dangerous than I was this time last week - please do feel free to point
out how I've screwed up.
