[PATCH 0/5 v4] fs: Fixes for removing xid bits and security labels

[PATCH 0/5 v4] fs: Fixes for removing xid bits and security labels

[Jan Kara]

  Hello,

  This is the fourth version of my patches to fix handling of s[ug]id bits and
capabilities xattrs in VFS. There are a few issues I found:

1) MS_NOSEC handling is broken - we set it after each file_remove_suid() call.
   However we needn't have removed suid bit simply because we have
   CAP_SYS_FSID and further writes to the file from processes without this
   capability still need to clear the suid bit.
2) file_remove_suid() is a misnomer since it also handles removing of
   file capabilities. It is even more confusing because should_remove_suid()
   doesn't return whether file_remove_suid() is needed or not.
3) On truncate we do clear suid bits but not file capabilities.
4) ocfs2 doesn't clear capability xattrs - hard to fix, I left it alone for
   now.
5) XFS didn't provide proper exclusion for clearing mode bits.

  This series aims at fixing above issues. Al, can you please merge the
patches? Thanks!

  Changes since v3:
* Updated changelogs and some comments to speak about capabilities and not
  security labels.

  Changes since v2:
* Rebased on top of current Linus' tree
* Improved patch 1 to use inode_has_no_xattr() as Linus suggested

  Changes since v1:
* Removed bogus patch changing inode_set_flags()
* Updated changelog of patch 4/5 to better explain why ->inode_killpriv
  should be called
* Included a fix for MS_NOSEC handling in this series.

[PATCH 1/5] fs: Fix S_NOSEC handling

[Jan Kara]

file_remove_suid() could mistakenly set S_NOSEC inode bit when root was
modifying the file. As a result following writes to the file by ordinary
user would avoid clearing suid or sgid bits.

Fix the bug by checking actual mode bits before setting S_NOSEC.

[PATCH 2/5] fs: Rename file_remove_suid() to file_remove_privs()

[Jan Kara]

file_remove_suid() is a misnomer since it removes also file capabilities
stored in xattrs and sets S_NOSEC flag. Also should_remove_suid() tells
something else than whether file_remove_suid() call is necessary which
leads to bugs.

[PATCH 3/5] fs: Provide function telling whether file_remove_privs() will do anything

[Jan Kara]

Provide function telling whether file_remove_privs() will do anything.
Currently we only have should_remove_suid() and that does something
slightly different.

[PATCH 4/5] fs: Call security_ops->inode_killpriv on truncate

[Jan Kara]

Comment in include/linux/security.h says that ->inode_killpriv() should
be called when setuid bit is being removed and that similar security
labels (in fact this applies only to file capabilities) should be
removed at this time as well. However we don't call ->inode_killpriv()
when we remove suid bit on truncate.

We fix the problem by calling ->inode_need_killpriv() and subsequently
->inode_killpriv() on truncate the same way as we do it on file write.

After this patch there's only one user of should_remove_suid() - ocfs2 -
and indeed it's buggy because it doesn't call ->inode_killpriv() on
write. However fixing it is difficult because of special locking
constraints.

[PATCH 5/5] xfs: Correctly lock inode when removing suid and file capabilities

[Jan Kara]

Currently XFS calls file_remove_privs() without holding i_mutex. This is
wrong because that function can end up messing with file permissions and
file capabilities stored in xattrs for which we need i_mutex held.

Fix the problem by grabbing iolock exclusively when we will need to
change anything in permissions / xattrs.

[PATCH 4/5] fs: Call security_ops->inode_killpriv on truncate

[Jan Kara]

Comment in include/linux/security.h says that ->inode_killpriv() should
be call when setuid bit is being removed and that similar security
labels should be removed at this time as well. However we don't call
->inode_killpriv() when we remove suid bit on truncate.

We fix the problem by calling ->inode_need_killpriv() and subsequently
->inode_killpriv() on truncate the same way as we do it on file write.

After this patch there's only one user of should_remove_suid() - ocfs2 -
and indeed it's buggy because it doesn't clear security attributes on
write. However fixing it is difficult because of special locking
constraints.
