I have hopefully a better idea. We should detect violations at each level of the stack independently. And IMA should be invoked each time overlayfs uses an underlying layer. That is currently not easy, from the IMA policy perspective, because there are filesystem-specific rules, such as fsname= or fsuuid=. At the moment, I'm not planning to solve this, but I'm thinking to use for example FMODE_BACKING to ignore the filesystem-specific keywords and match the rule anyway. For now, I'm only addressing the call to underlying layers. To make sure that IMA evaluates every layer, I added a rule that checks the inode UID: measure fowner=2000 mask=MAY_READ I just investigated a bit, and I made some changes (for now, I'm just making it work, and you tell me what you think). diff --git a/fs/backing-file.c b/fs/backing-file.c index 740185198db3..8016f62cf770 100644 --- a/fs/backing-file.c +++ b/fs/backing-file.c @@ -12,6 +12,7 @@ #include <linux/backing-file.h> #include <linux/splice.h> #include <linux/mm.h> +#include <linux/security.h> #include "internal.h" @@ -40,12 +41,16 @@ struct file *backing_file_open(const struct path *user_path, int flags, if (IS_ERR(f)) return f; + f->f_mode |= OPEN_FMODE(flags); + path_get(user_path); *backing_file_user_path(f) = *user_path; error = vfs_open(real_path, f); if (error) { fput(f); f = ERR_PTR(error); + } else { + security_file_post_open(f, ACC_MODE(flags)); } return f; Setup: # mount -t overlay -olowerdir=a,upperdir=b,workdir=c overlay d open is a tool with the following syntax: open <path> <perm> It performs the open, and waits for user input before closing the file.
