<title>mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive()</title>

As said by Linus:

  A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
  Otherwise it's actively misleading.

  In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
  caller wants.

  In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
  future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
  something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.

The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.

Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.

The renaming is done by using the command sequence:

  git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
  xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'

followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fs/crypto/inline_crypt.c needs linux/slab.h]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix fs/crypto/inline_crypt.c some more]

Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
          If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
          return 200 OK and serve the same content:
            Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

audit_log_string() was inteded to be an internal audit function and
since there are only two internal uses, remove them.  Purge all external
uses of it by restructuring code to use an existing audit_log_format()
or using audit_log_format().

Fix two issues with introspecting the task mode.

1. If a task is attached to a unconfined profile that is not the
   ns-&gt;unconfined profile then. Mode the mode is always reported
   as -

      $ ps -Z
      LABEL                               PID TTY          TIME CMD
      unconfined                         1287 pts/0    00:00:01 bash
      test (-)                           1892 pts/0    00:00:00 ps

   instead of the correct value of (unconfined) as shown below

      $ ps -Z
      LABEL                               PID TTY          TIME CMD
      unconfined                         2483 pts/0    00:00:01 bash
      test (unconfined)                  3591 pts/0    00:00:00 ps

2. if a task is confined by a stack of profiles that are unconfined
   the output of label mode is again the incorrect value of (-) like
   above, instead of (unconfined). This is because the visibile
   profile count increment is skipped by the special casing of
   unconfined.

<title>apparmor: check/put label on apparmor_sk_clone_security()</title>

<id>3b646abc5bc6c0df649daea4c2c976bd4d47e4c8</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently apparmor_sk_clone_security() does not check for existing
label/peer in the 'new' struct sock; it just overwrites it, if any
(with another reference to the label of the source sock.)

    static void apparmor_sk_clone_security(const struct sock *sk,
                                           struct sock *newsk)
    {
            struct aa_sk_ctx *ctx = SK_CTX(sk);
            struct aa_sk_ctx *new = SK_CTX(newsk);

            new-&gt;label = aa_get_label(ctx-&gt;label);
            new-&gt;peer = aa_get_label(ctx-&gt;peer);
    }

This might leak label references, which might overflow under load.
Thus, check for and put labels, to prevent such errors.

Note this is similarly done on:

    static int apparmor_socket_post_create(struct socket *sock, ...)
    ...
            if (sock-&gt;sk) {
                    struct aa_sk_ctx *ctx = SK_CTX(sock-&gt;sk);

                    aa_put_label(ctx-&gt;label);
                    ctx-&gt;label = aa_get_label(label);
            }
    ...

Context:
-------

The label reference count leak is observed if apparmor_sock_graft()
is called previously: this sets the 'ctx-&gt;label' field by getting
a reference to the current label (later overwritten, without put.)

    static void apparmor_sock_graft(struct sock *sk, ...)
    {
            struct aa_sk_ctx *ctx = SK_CTX(sk);

            if (!ctx-&gt;label)
                    ctx-&gt;label = aa_get_current_label();
    }

And that is the case on crypto/af_alg.c:af_alg_accept():

    int af_alg_accept(struct sock *sk, struct socket *newsock, ...)
    ...
            struct sock *sk2;
            ...
            sk2 = sk_alloc(...);
            ...
            security_sock_graft(sk2, newsock);
            security_sk_clone(sk, sk2);
    ...

Apparently both calls are done on their own right, especially for
other LSMs, being introduced in 2010/2014, before apparmor socket
mediation in 2017 (see commits [1,2,3,4]).

So, it looks OK there! Let's fix the reference leak in apparmor.

Test-case:
---------

Exercise that code path enough to overflow label reference count.

    $ cat aa-refcnt-af_alg.c
    #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
    #include &lt;string.h&gt;

    int main() {
            int sockfd;
            struct sockaddr_alg sa;

            /* Setup the crypto API socket */
            sockfd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
            if (sockfd &lt; 0) {
                    perror("socket");
                    return 1;
            }

            memset(&amp;sa, 0, sizeof(sa));
            sa.salg_family = AF_ALG;
            strcpy((char *) sa.salg_type, "rng");
            strcpy((char *) sa.salg_name, "stdrng");

            if (bind(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *) &amp;sa, sizeof(sa)) &lt; 0) {
                    perror("bind");
                    return 1;
            }

            /* Accept a "connection" and close it; repeat. */
            while (!close(accept(sockfd, NULL, 0)));

            return 0;
    }

    $ gcc -o aa-refcnt-af_alg aa-refcnt-af_alg.c

    $ ./aa-refcnt-af_alg

Pull execve updates from Eric Biederman:
 "Last cycle for the Nth time I ran into bugs and quality of
  implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily be
  fixed because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been digging
  into exec and cleanup up what I can.

  I don't think I have exec sorted out enough to fix the issues I
  started with but I have made some headway this cycle with 4 sets of
  changes.

   - promised cleanups after introducing exec_update_mutex

   - trivial cleanups for exec

   - control flow simplifications

   - remove the recomputation of bprm-&gt;cred

  The net result is code that is a bit easier to understand and work
  with and a decrease in the number of lines of code (if you don't count
  the added tests)"

* 'exec-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (24 commits)
  exec: Compute file based creds only once
  exec: Add a per bprm-&gt;file version of per_clear
  binfmt_elf_fdpic: fix execfd build regression
  selftests/exec: Add binfmt_script regression test
  exec: Remove recursion from search_binary_handler
  exec: Generic execfd support
  exec/binfmt_script: Don't modify bprm-&gt;buf and then return -ENOEXEC
  exec: Move the call of prepare_binprm into search_binary_handler
  exec: Allow load_misc_binary to call prepare_binprm unconditionally
  exec: Convert security_bprm_set_creds into security_bprm_repopulate_creds
  exec: Factor security_bprm_creds_for_exec out of security_bprm_set_creds

Pull execve updates from Eric Biederman:
 "Last cycle for the Nth time I ran into bugs and quality of
  implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily be
  fixed because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been digging
  into exec and cleanup up what I can.

  I don't think I have exec sorted out enough to fix the issues I
  started with but I have made some headway this cycle with 4 sets of
  changes.

   - promised cleanups after introducing exec_update_mutex

   - trivial cleanups for exec

   - control flow simplifications

   - remove the recomputation of bprm-&gt;cred

  The net result is code that is a bit easier to understand and work
  with and a decrease in the number of lines of code (if you don't count
  the added tests)"
