2009-11-24remove CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES compile optionSerge E. Hallyn
As far as I know, all distros currently ship kernels with default CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y. Since having the option on leaves a 'no_file_caps' option to boot without file capabilities, the main reason to keep the option is that turning it off saves you (on my s390x partition) 5k. In particular, vmlinux sizes came to: without patch fscaps=n: 53598392 without patch fscaps=y: 53603406 with this patch applied: 53603342 with the security-next tree. Against this we must weigh the fact that there is no simple way for userspace to figure out whether file capabilities are supported, while things like per-process securebits, capability bounding sets, and adding bits to pI if CAP_SETPCAP is in pE are not supported with SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=n, leaving a bit of a problem for applications wanting to know whether they can use them and/or why something failed. It also adds another subtly different set of semantics which we must maintain at the risk of severe security regressions. So this patch removes the SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES compile option. It drops the kernel size by about 50k over the stock SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y kernel, by removing the cap_limit_ptraced_target() function.

2009-11-24SELinux: print denials for buggy kernel with unknown permsEric Paris
Historically we've seen cases where permissions are requested for classes where they do not exist. In particular we have seen CIFS forget to set i_mode to indicate it is a directory so when we later check something like remove_name we have problems since it wasn't defined in tclass file. This used to result in a avc which included the permission 0x2000 or something. Currently the kernel will deny the operations (good thing) but will not print ANY information (bad thing). First the auditdeny field is no extended to include unknown permissions. After that is fixed the logic in avc_dump_query to output this information isn't right since it will remove the permission from the av and print the phrase "<NULL>". This takes us back to the behavior before the classmap rewrite. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
2009-11-24Silence the existing API for capability version compatibility check.Andrew G. Morgan
When libcap, or other libraries attempt to confirm/determine the supported capability version magic, they generally supply a NULL dataptr to capget(). In this case, while returning the supported/preferred magic (via a modified header content), the return code of this system call may be 0, -EINVAL, or -EFAULT. No libcap code depends on the previous -EINVAL etc. return code, and all of the above three return codes can accompany a valid (successful) attempt to determine the requested magic value. This patch cleans up the system call to return 0, if the call is successfully being used to determine the supported/preferred capability magic value. Signed-off-by: Andrew G.

2009-11-02tpm_tis: TPM_STS_DATA_EXPECT workaroundRajiv Andrade
Some newer Lenovo models are shipped with a TPM that doesn't seem to set the TPM_STS_DATA_EXPECT status bit when sending it a burst of data, so the code understands it as a failure and doesn't proceed sending the chip the intended data. In this patch we bypass this bit check in case the itpm module parameter was set. This patch is based on Andy Isaacson's one: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=124650185023495&w=2 It was heavily discussed how should we deal with identifying the chip in kernel space, but the required patch to do so was NACK'd: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=124650186423711&w=2 This way we let the user choose using this workaround or not based on his observations on this code behavior when trying to use the TPM.

2009-10-30define convenient securebits masks for prctl users (v2)Serge E. Hallyn
Hi James, would you mind taking the following into security-testing? The securebits are used by passing them to prctl with the PR_{S,G}ET_SECUREBITS commands. But the defines must be shifted to be used in prctl, which begs to be confused and misused by userspace. So define some more convenient values for userspace to specify. This way userspace does prctl(PR_SET_SECUREBITS, SECBIT_NOROOT); instead of prctl(PR_SET_SECUREBITS, 1 << SECURE_NOROOT); (Thanks to Michael for the idea) This patch also adds include/linux/securebits to the installed headers. Then perhaps it can be included by glibc's sys/prctl.h. Changelog: Oct 29: Stephen Rothwell points out that issecure can be under __KERNEL__. Oct 14: (Suggestions by Michael Kerrisk): 1. spell out SETUID in SECBIT_NO_SETUID* 2. SECBIT_X_LOCKED does not imply SECBIT_X 3. add definitions for keepcaps Oct 14: As suggested by Michael Kerrisk, don't use SB_* as that convention is already in use. Use SECBIT_ prefix instead.

2009-10-29tomoyo: improve hash bucket dispersionStephen Hemminger
When examining the network device name hash, it was discovered that the low order bits of full_name_hash() are not very well dispersed across the possible values. When used by filesystem code, this is handled by folding with the function hash_long(). The only other non-filesystem usage of full_name_hash() at this time appears to be in TOMOYO.

2009-10-07selinux: drop remapping of netlink classesStephen Smalley
Drop remapping of netlink classes and bypass of permission checking based on netlink message type for policy version < 18. This removes compatibility code introduced when the original single netlink security class used for all netlink sockets was split into finer-grained netlink classes based on netlink protocol and when permission checking was added based on netlink message type in Linux 2.6.8. The only known distribution that shipped with SELinux and policy < 18 was Fedora Core 2, which was EOL'd on 2005-04-11. Given that the remapping code was never updated to address the addition of newer netlink classes, that the corresponding userland support was dropped in 2005, and that the assumptions made by the remapping code about the fixed ordering among netlink classes in the policy may be violated in the future due to the dynamic class/perm discovery support, we should drop this compatibility code now.

2009-10-07selinux: dynamic class/perm discoveryStephen Smalley
Modify SELinux to dynamically discover class and permission values upon policy load, based on the dynamic object class/perm discovery logic from libselinux. A mapping is created between kernel-private class and permission indices used outside the security server and the policy values used within the security server. The mappings are only applied upon kernel-internal computations; similar mappings for the private indices of userspace object managers is handled on a per-object manager basis by the userspace AVC. The interfaces for compute_av and transition_sid are split for kernel vs. userspace; the userspace functions are distinguished by a _user suffix. The kernel-private class indices are no longer tied to the policy values and thus do not need to skip indices for userspace classes; thus the kernel class index values are compressed. The flask.h definitions were regenerated by deleting the userspace classes from refpolicy's definitions and then regenerating the headers. Going forward, we can just maintain the flask.h, av_permissions.h, and classmap.h definitions separately from policy as they are no longer tied to the policy values. The next patch introduces a utility to automate generation of flask.h and av_permissions.h from the classmap.h definitions. The older kernel class and permission string tables are removed and replaced by a single security class mapping table that is walked at policy load to generate the mapping. The old kernel class validation logic is completely replaced by the mapping logic. The handle unknown logic is reworked. reject_unknown=1 is handled when the mappings are computed at policy load time, similar to the old handling by the class validation logic. allow_unknown=1 is handled when computing and mapping decisions - if the permission was not able to be mapped (i.e. undefined, mapped to zero), then it is automatically added to the allowed vector. If the class was not able to be mapped (i.e. undefined, mapped to zero), then all permissions are allowed for it if allow_unknown=1. avc_audit leverages the new security class mapping table to lookup the class and permission names from the kernel-private indices. The mdp program is updated to use the new table when generating the class definitions and allow rules for a minimal boot policy for the kernel. It should be noted that this policy will not include any userspace classes, nor will its policy index values for the kernel classes correspond with the ones in refpolicy (they will instead match the kernel-private indices).

This patch resets the security_ops to the secondary_ops before it flushes the avc. It's still possible that a task on another processor could have already passed the security_ops dereference and be executing an selinux hook function which would add a new avc entry.

Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion: Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case it seems to do the wrong thing. Opening a tty that is closing (and could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO. I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions. tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty onto the waitqueue for destruction tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs. We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0 ... the end) to occur asynchronously The USB update in -next would then need a call like if (tty->cleanup) tty->cleanup(tty); at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep.

The message "ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver" is misleading. The device _may_ need an ACPI driver, if the BIOS implemented a custom API for the device in question (which, AFAIK, can't be checked.) If not, then either a generic ACPI driver may be used (for example "thermal"), or nothing can be done (other than a white list). I propose to reword the message to: ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use it instead of the native driver which I think is more correct. Comments and suggestions welcome. I also added a message warning about possible problems and system instability when users pass acpi_enforce_resources=lax, as suggested by Len.
