Subject: Re: [PATCH] CRED: ptrace_attach() should use the target process's mutex
Hello.
TOMOYO Linux is now trying to use CRED API, but some troubles were found.
Thus, I want the below patch for TOMOYO Linux.
Regards.
-----
Subject: Add hooks for notifying of start/finish of an execve operation.
This patch adds two hooks, security_start_execve() / security_finish_execve(),
for notifying an LSM module of an execve operation is about to start and
finish.
TOMOYO Linux checks read and/or write permissions at security_dentry_open()
if security_dentry_open() is called outside do_execve() (e.g. sys_open()).
But TOMOYO Linux wants to skip permission checks at security_dentry_open()
if security_dentry_open() is called inside do_execve() (i.e. open_exec()), for
TOMOYO Linux checks permissions at security_bprm_check() using
current->cred->security for program and bprm->cred->security for interpreter.
To implement this exception, I have to tell whether TOMOYO Linux should do
permission checks at security_dentry_open(). And I want a flag that tells
whether the current process is in an execve operation or not.
I tried to use
static int tmy_dentry_open(struct file *f, const struct cred *cred)
{
...
/* Don't check read permission here if called from do_execve(). */
if (mutex_is_locked(¤t->cred_exec_mutex))
return 0;
...
}
for judging whether the current process is in an execve operation or not.
But it turned out that this code won't work because current->cred_exec_mutex
can be locked by other processes. Thus, I'm trying to use
struct execve_entry {
struct list_head list;
struct task_struct *task;
};
static LIST_HEAD(execve_list);
static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(execve_list_lock);
static int tmy_start_execve(void)
{
struct execve_entry *ee = kmalloc(sizeof(*ee), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!ee)
return -ENOMEM;
ee->task = current;
spin_lock(&execve_list_lock);
list_add(&ee->list, &execve_list);
spin_unlock(&execve_list_lock);
return 0;
}
static bool tmy_in_execve(void)
{
struct task_struct *task = current;
struct execve_entry *p;
bool found = false;
spin_lock(&execve_list_lock);
list_for_each_entry(p, &execve_list, list) {
if (p->task != task)
continue;
found = true;
break;
}
spin_unlock(&execve_list_lock);
return found;
}
static void tmy_finish_execve(void)
{
struct task_struct *task = current;
struct execve_entry *p;
struct execve_entry *ee = NULL;
spin_lock(&execve_list_lock);
list_for_each_entry(p, &execve_list, list) {
if (p->task != task)
continue;
list_del(&p->list);
ee = p;
break;
}
spin_unlock(&execve_list_lock);
if (ee)
kfree(ee);
}
and replace mutex_is_locked(¤t->cred_exec_mutex) with tmy_in_execve().
To call tmy_start_execve() and tmy_finish_execve(),
I want security_start_execve() / security_finish_execve().
