[PATCH v2 07/12] landlock: Add support for file reparenting with LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER
Mickaël Salaün
mic at digikod.net
Tue Mar 29 12:51:12 UTC 2022
From: Mickaël Salaün <mic at linux.microsoft.com>
Add a new LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER access right to enable policy writers
to allow sandboxed processes to link and rename files from and to a
specific set of file hierarchies. This access right should be composed
with LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_MAKE_* for the destination of a link or rename,
and with LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REMOVE_* for a source of a rename. This
lift a Landlock limitation that always denied changing the parent of an
inode.
Renaming or linking to the same directory is still always allowed,
whatever LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER is used or not, because it is not
considered a threat to user data.
However, creating multiple links or renaming to a different parent
directory may lead to privilege escalations if not handled properly.
Indeed, we must be sure that the source doesn't gain more privileges by
being accessible from the destination. This is handled by making sure
that the source hierarchy (including the referenced file or directory
itself) restricts at least as much the destination hierarchy. If it is
not the case, an EXDEV error is returned, making it potentially possible
for user space to copy the file hierarchy instead of moving or linking
it.
Instead of creating different access rights for the source and the
destination, we choose to make it simple and consistent for users.
Indeed, considering the previous constraint, it would be weird to
require such destination access right to be also granted to the source
(to make it a superset). Moreover, RENAME_EXCHANGE would also add to
the confusion because of paths being both a source and a destination.
See the provided documentation for additional details.
New tests are provided with a following commit.

Changes since v1:
* Update current_check_access_path() to efficiently handle
RENAME_EXCHANGE thanks to the updated LSM hook (see previous patch).
Only one path walk is performed per rename arguments until their
common mount point is reached. Superset of access rights is correctly
checked, including when exchanging a file with a directory. This
requires to store another matrix of layer masks.
* Reorder and rename check_access_path_dual() arguments in a more
generic way: switch from src/dst to 1/2. This makes it easier to
understand the RENAME_EXCHANGE cases alongs with the others. Update
and improve check_access_path_dual() documentation accordingly.
* Clean up the check_access_path_dual() loop: set both allowed_parent*
when reaching internal filesystems and remove a useless one. This
allows potential renames in internal filesystems (like for other
operations).
* Move the function arguments checks from BUILD_BUG_ON() to
WARN_ON_ONCE() to avoid clang build error.
* Rename is_superset() to no_more_access() and make it handle superset
checks of source and destination for simple and exchange cases.
* Move the layer_masks_child* creation from current_check_refer_path()
to check_access_path_dual(): this is simpler and less error-prone,
especially with RENAME_EXCHANGE.
* Remove one optimization in current_check_refer_path() to make the code
simpler, especially with the RENAME_EXCHANGE handling.
* Remove overzealous WARN_ON_ONCE() for !access_request check in
init_layer_masks().

+ * directory requested to be moved would gain new access rights inherited from
+ * its new hierarchy. Before returning any error, Landlock then checks that
+ * the parent source hierarchy and the destination hierarchy would allow the
+ * link or rename action. If it is not the case, an error with EACCES is
+ * returned to inform user space that there is no way to remove or create the
+ * requested source file type. If it should be allowed but the new inherited
+ * access rights would be greater than the source access rights, then the
+ * kernel returns an error with EXDEV. Prioritizing EACCES over EXDEV enables
+ * user space to abort the whole operation if there is no way to do it, or to
+ * manually copy the source to the destination if this remains allowed, e.g.
+ * because file creation is allowed on the destination directory but not direct
+ * linking.
+ *
+ * To achieve this goal, the kernel needs to compare two file hierarchies: the
+ * one identifying the source file or directory (including itself), and the
+ * destination one. This can be seen as a multilayer partial ordering problem.
+ * The kernel walks through these paths and collect in a matrix the access
+ * rights that are denied per layer. These matrices are then compared to see
+ * if the destination one has more (or the same) restrictions as the source
+ * one. If this is the case, the requested action will not return EXDEV, which
+ * doesn't mean the action is allowed. The parent hierarchy of the source
+ * (i.e. parent directory), and the destination hierarchy must also be checked
+ * to verify that they explicitly allow such action (i.e. referencing,
+ * creation and potentially removal rights). The kernel implementation is then
+ * required to rely on three matrices of access rights: one for the source file
+ * or directory (i.e. the child), one for the source parent hierarchy and one
+ * for the destination hierarchy. These ephemeral matrices take some space on
+ * the stack, which limits the number of layers to a deemed reasonable number:
+ * 16.
+ *
+ * Returns:
+ * - 0 if access is allowed;
+ * - -EXDEV if @old_dentry would inherit new access rights from @new_dir;
+ * - -EACCES if file removal or creation is denied.
