Several items in /proc/sys need not be accessible to unprivileged
tasks. Let the system administrator change the permissions, but only
to more restrictive modes than what the sysctl tables allow.

v2: actually keep track of changed permissions instead of relying on
inode cache

Ah! I see the v2 here now. :) Can you please include that in your
Subject next time, as "[PATCH v2] proc: Allow restricting permissions
in /proc/sys"? Also, can you adjust your MUA to not send a duplicate
attachment? The patch inline is fine.
Please CC akpm as well, since I think this should likely go through the
-mm tree.
Eric, do you have any other thoughts on this?
Thanks!

This works seems to be a cousin of having a proc that is safe for
containers.
Which leads to the whole mess that hide_pid is broken in proc last I
looked.
So my sense is that what we want to do is not allow changing the
permissions but to sort through what it will take to provide actual
mount options to proc (that are per mount). Thus removing the sharing
that is (currently?) breaking the hide_pid option.
With such an infrastructure in place we can provide a mount option
(possibly default on when mounted by non-root) that keeps anything that
unprivileged users don't need out of proc. Which is likely to be most
things except the pid files.
It is something I probably should be working on, but I got derailed
by the disaster that has that happened with mounting. Even after
I gave code review and showed them how to avoid it the new mount api
is still not possible to use safely.

Are you perhaps referring to proc modernization patch set:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/5/11/155
Getting that reviewed and committed would be awesome!

Thanks for taking the time for looking into this!
We don't get many eyeballs over this code, so while you're at it, if its
not too much trouble and since it seems you care: can you list proc sys
files which are glaring red flags to have their current defaults
permissions?

This alone checks to see if the inode's uid and gid are mapped to the
current namespace, amonst other things. A worthy change in and of
itself, worthy of it being a separate patch.
Can it regress current uses? Well depends if namespaces exists today
where root is not mapped to other namespaces, and if that was *expected*
to work.

max_mode &= root->permissions(head, table) ?
But why are we setting this? More in context below.

Here we only care about setting this current_mode if the
table is set is present, but above we did some processing
when it was not set. Why?

Please add kdoc, I know we don't have one, but we have to start, and
explain at least that mode is the original intended settings, and that
current_mode can only be stricter settings.
Also, I see your patch does a good sanity test on the input mask
and returns it back, howevever, I don't see how proc_sys_permission()
is using it?

Also, while at it. Please add a test cases for all of this. There is

I'm not aware if there are any problems with the defaults. It's just
that the defaults make so many files available to unprivileged tasks,
when in reality only a few of the files seem to be really needed or useful.
For example, going through the few Debian Code Search hits for
/proc/sys/debug [1], it seems to me that the default could as well be
0500 for the directory without breaking anything.

Currently, writing is not allowed by default. For /proc/sys/net and
/proc/sys/user, which grant write access to suitably ns_capable tasks, I
think this would allow those tasks also to change the mode to world
writable. So far, I've tried to allow only tightening of permissions.

Right, will fix.

The processing above when there was no table was to ensure that there is
some default (0444 for files, 0555 for directories). Here we store the
changed mode to table, if it is present.
Though if there's no table, the change would remain only in the inode
cache, so using the table for backing storage for the mode looks now to
me as a bad idea. Perhaps struct proc_dir_entry should be used instead.

OK, if this remains instead of using proc_dir_entry for storing the mode.

It's not, but the inode mode is checked by generic_permission() added by
the patch.
