Subject: [PATCH 3/9] proc: use open()-time creds for ptrace checks
Date: Sun, 18 Sep 2016 17:05:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1474211117-16674-4-git-send-email-jann@thejh.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1474211117-16674-1-git-send-email-jann@thejh.net>

This adds a new ptrace_may_access_noncurrent() method that
uses the supplied credentials instead of those of the
current task. (However, the current task may still be
inspected for auditing purposes, e.g. by the Smack LSM.)

procfs used the caller's creds for a few ptrace_may_access()
checks at read() time, which made a confused deputy attack
by passing an FD to a procfs file to a setuid program
possible. Therefore, the following was a local userspace
ASLR bypass:

rm -f /tmp/foobar
procmail <(echo 'DEFAULT=/tmp/foobar') </proc/1/stat
(
  echo 'obase=16'
  cut -d' ' -f26-30,45-51 </tmp/foobar | tr ' ' '\n'
) | bc
rm /tmp/foobar

procmail is installed setuid root on Debian and read()s
data from stdin before dropping privs, so the
ptrace_may_access() check in the VFS read handler of
/proc/1/stat passes. Procmail then dumps the read data
to a user-accessible file (/tmp/foobar here).
