4 daysapparmor: fix cred UAF caused by begin_current_label_crit_section()Jann Horn
commit 3f4ae5fab613dca01d6a2a8210dd832e009fcf47 upstream. AppArmor's begin_current_label_crit_section() is a scary function called from lots of LSM hooks (in particular VFS/socket-related ones) that checks if the label referenced by the current creds is marked FLAG_STALE, and if so, attempts to use aa_replace_current_label() to replace the creds with an updated version that uses a new label. The first problem with this is that it would directly lead to UAF of `struct cred` if anything in the kernel takes a pointer to the current creds and accesses these past a security hook invocation that replaces creds, like so: ``` const struct cred *cred = current_cred(); alloc_file_pseudo(...); uid_t uid = cred->euid; ``` I don't know if anything in the kernel actually does this, but I think it is very surprising that this pattern could lead to UAF. The second problem is that things go wrong when aa_replace_current_label() runs with overridden credentials. aa_replace_current_label() bails out if `current_cred() != current_real_cred()` (mirroring the check in proc_pid_attr_write()), but this check can't actually reliably detect overridden credentials because the overridden creds can be the same as the objective creds. So in approximately the following scenario, things go wrong: 1. task begins with <creds A> (as both objective and subjective creds), with refcount=2 2. task grabs an extra reference on <creds A> for overriding 3. task calls override_creds(<creds A>), which returns a pointer to the old subjective creds (<creds A>) 4. task enters AppArmor LSM hook 5. AppArmor checks that objective/subjective creds are equal 6. AppArmor replaces both cred pointers with <creds B> and drops 2 refs on <creds A> 7. task leaves AppArmor LSM hook 8. task calls revert_creds(<creds A>) 9. now task->cred is <creds A> while task->real_cred is <creds B>, but the task_struct logically holds two references to <creds B> 10. another task drops the extra reference on <creds A> that was used for overriding, refcount drops to 0 11. now task->real_cred points to freed creds At this point, any access to current_cred() will be UAF. I have a test case where I run aa-disable on a profile while a process using that profile is blocked on splice() from a FUSE passthrough file into a full pipe; after the profile update, the pipe becomes empty, splice() resumes, the credentials go out of sync, and a subsequent getuid() syscall results in a KASAN UAF splat. To fix this, instead of directly replacing creds, do it via task_work that will run at the end of the current syscall. (The point in time at which the cred replacement happens should have no correctness impact; it is just a performance optimization to avoid unnecessarily touching the refcount of the new label.) Note that AppArmor still performs direct cred replacements in the sb_pivotroot LSM hook after this change, and that direct cred replacements can still happen in VFS ->write() callbacks via proc_pid_attr_write(). There are two options for what to do with aa_dup_task_ctx(): Either explicitly reset new->label_replacement_pending after the entire aa_task_ctx has been copied, or switch to manually copying members over. I am switching to manually copying members over because that should make bugs more obvious.

2023-10-18apparmor: add user namespace creation mediationJohn Johansen
Unprivileged user namespace creation is often used as a first step in privilege escalation attacks. Instead of disabling it at the sysrq level, which blocks its legitimate use as for setting up a sandbox, allow control on a per domain basis. This allows an admin to quickly lock down a system while also still allowing legitimate use.

2018-02-09apparmor: update domain transitions that are subsets of confinement at nnpJohn Johansen
Domain transition so far have been largely blocked by no new privs, unless the transition has been provably a subset of the previous confinement. There was a couple problems with the previous implementations, - transitions that weren't explicitly a stack but resulted in a subset of confinement were disallowed - confinement subsets were only calculated from the previous confinement instead of the confinement being enforced at the time of no new privs, so transitions would have to get progressively tighter. Fix this by detecting and storing a reference to the task's confinement at the "time" no new privs is set. This reference is then used to determine whether a transition is a subsystem of the confinement at the time no new privs was set. Unfortunately the implementation is less than ideal in that we have to detect no new privs after the fact when a task attempts a domain transition. This is adequate for the currently but will not work in a stacking situation where no new privs could be conceivably be set in both the "host" and in the container.
