selinux: fix selinux_inode_setxattr oops

2012-08-15T14:52:30+00:00

commit e3fea3f70fd68af0574a5f24246cdb4ed07f2b74 upstream. OK, what we have so far is e.g. setxattr(path, name, whatever, 0, XATTR_REPLACE) with name being good enough to get through xattr_permission(). Then we reach security_inode_setxattr() with the desired value and size. Aha. name should begin with "security.selinux", or we won't get that far in selinux_inode_setxattr(). Suppose we got there and have enough permissions to relabel that sucker. We call security_context_to_sid() with value == NULL, size == 0. OK, we want ss_initialized to be non-zero. I.e. after everything had been set up and running. No problem... We do 1-byte kmalloc(), zero-length memcpy() (which doesn't oops, even thought the source is NULL) and put a NUL there. I.e. form an empty string. string_to_context_struct() is called and looks for the first ':' in there. Not found, -EINVAL we get. OK, security_context_to_sid_core() has rc == -EINVAL, force == 0, so it silently returns -EINVAL. All it takes now is not having CAP_MAC_ADMIN and we are fucked. All right, it might be a different bug (modulo strange code quoted in the report), but it's real. Easily fixed, AFAICS: Deal with size == 0, value == NULL case in selinux_inode_setxattr() Signed-off-by: Al Viro Tested-by: Dave Jones Reported-by: Dave Jones Signed-off-by: James Morris Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

posix_types.h: Cleanup stale __NFDBITS and related definitions

2012-08-09T15:23:11+00:00

commit 8ded2bbc1845e19c771eb55209aab166ef011243 upstream. Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1). This uncovered an issue with the kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include after including . A build failure would be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 flags to gcc. It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely. The current in-kernel uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines. Given that, we'll continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda4f5f ("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused macros. Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.

Pull SELinux regression fixes from James Morris. Andrew Morton has a box that hit that open perms problem. I also renamed the "epollwakeup" selinux name for the new capability to be "block_suspend", to match the rename done by commit d9914cf66181 ("PM: Rename CAP_EPOLLWAKEUP to CAP_BLOCK_SUSPEND"). * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security: SELinux: do not check open perms if they are not known to policy SELinux: include definition of new capabilities

SELinux: do not check open perms if they are not known to policy

2012-07-16T01:41:47+00:00

When I introduced open perms policy didn't understand them and I implemented them as a policycap. When I added the checking of open perm to truncate I forgot to conditionalize it on the userspace defined policy capability. Running an old policy with a new kernel will not check open on open(2) but will check it on truncate. Conditionalize the truncate check the same as the open check.

SELinux: include definition of new capabilities

2012-07-16T01:40:31+00:00

The kernel has added CAP_WAKE_ALARM and CAP_EPOLLWAKEUP. We need to define these in SELinux so they can be mediated by policy. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris Signed-off-by: James Morris

selinuxfs snprintf() misuses
