[PATCH] capabilities: audit capability use

[PATCH] capabilities: audit capability use

[Topi Miettinen]

There are many basic ways to control processes, including capabilities,
cgroups and resource limits. However, there are far fewer ways to find
out useful values for the limits, except blind trial and error.

Currently, there is no way to know which capabilities are actually used.
Even the source code is only implicit, in-depth knowledge of each
capability must be used when analyzing a program to judge which
capabilities the program will exercise.

Generate an audit message at system call exit, when capabilities are used.
This can then be used to configure capability sets for services by a
software developer, maintainer or system administrator.

Test case demonstrating basic capability monitoring with the new
message types 1330 and 1331 and how the cgroups are displayed (boot to
rdshell):

Thanks, Topi, I'll find time this week to look this over in detail.

How much chattier does this make the syslog/journald during a regular
boot?  I was thinking "this is audit, we can choose what messages
will show up", but I guess that' sonly what auditd actually listens to,
not what kernel emits?  (sorry i've not looked at audit in a long
time).  Drat, that makes it seem like tracepoints would be better
after all.  But let's see how much it addes to the noise.

For example "loadkeys" causes thousands of entries. :-( I'm checking how
to avoid audit message rate limiting, now some messages are lost.

It's still too easy to drown the logs with noise. That could be limited
a lot by emitting a message only when the capability is used for the
first time. But the question is how to define where to start counting
(fork, exec, and/or setpcap?). I'm also not sure if that is the right
way to log, since the first use of a capability could be expected and an
innocent one, but then the 100th one could be malicious.

It's also very complex and error-prone to collect a capability mask from
audit logs, which was my original goal.

Please don't put additions of the two different audit types into one
patch and I don't think the cgroup audit logging makes much sense.
Without logging all migrations, it doesn't help auditing all that
much.  Also, printing all cgroup membership like that can be
problematic for audit it can be arbitrarily long.

Thanks.

It's really critical to be able to associate a task in the logs to
cgroups which were valid that time. Or can we infer somehow what cgroups
a task was taking part, long time after task exit? Perhaps task cgroup
membership changes and changes in available cgroups should be logged too?

Some kind of cgroup IDs could be logged instead of long paths. Then
these IDs should be reliably resolvable to paths offline somehow.

How usual migrations between cgroups are? Why would a task ever move
from (say) systemd/system.slice/smartd.service to anywhere else?

When is "that time"?  Without logging all operations, this is
meaningless.

I don't think that's doable.  That pretty much requires the kernel to
remember paths of all past cgroups.

In most cases, they won't move once set up initially but that's not
the point of audit subsystem.  Logging this once one exit isn't gonna
help anything for auditing the system.

Thanks.

That's a show stopper for audit approach for getting helpful information
for configuration. I'll try something different, probably cgroupstats.

You totally miss the interactions with the user namespace so this won't

Please correct me if this is not right:

There are two cases:
a) real capability use as seen outside the namespace
b) use of capabilities granted by the namespace
Both cases could be active independently.

For auditing purposes, we're  mostly interested in a) and log noise from
b) could be even seen a distraction.

For configuration purposes, both cases can be interesting, a) for the
configuration of  services and b) in case where the containerized
configuration is planned to be deployed outside. I'd still only log a).

The same logic should apply with cgroup namespaces.

Not logging capabilities outside of the initial user namespace is
certainly the conservative place to start, and what selinux does.

You should also be logging capability use from cap_capable.  Not
ns_capable.  You are missing several kinds of capability use as
a quick review of kernel/capability.c should have shown you.

FYI, we added some basic userns capability smarts to SELinux in Linux 4.7.

  commit 8e4ff6f228e4722cac74db716e308d1da33d744f

  Date:   Fri Apr 8 13:52:00 2016 -0400

   selinux: distinguish non-init user namespace capability checks

   Distinguish capability checks against a target associated
   with the init user namespace versus capability checks against
   a target associated with a non-init user namespace by defining
   and using separate security classes for the latter.

   This is needed to support e.g. Chrome usage of user namespaces
   for the Chrome sandbox without needing to allow Chrome to also
   exercise capabilities on targets in the init user namespace.

But cap_capable is not called from apparmor aa_capable or selinux
selinux_capable, how about security_capable()?

NOTE: additional comments inline with the patch.

I can understand the desire to audit the capabilities, but I'm a
little uncertain about the value of auditing cgroups at this point in
time.  The audit subsystem focuses primarily on security relevant
information, and while you could make an argument for cgroups here, I
think it is a relatively weak argument at the moment.

Also, please continue to work on reducing the impact of this on the
audit logs (your discussion with Serge).

This is not an improvement, please stick with the leading space in
audit_log_cap() so callers do not have to worry about formatting

Why not just move the "cgroups=" into audit_cgroup_list()?  Can you
ever think of a reason why you would need to record the cgroups
without the "cgroup=" field prefix?

You can't log "no audit_context" in the audit record, all information
logged should follow the "<field>=<value>" format.

The attached patch would make any uses of capabilities generate audit
messages. It works for simple tests as you can see from the commit
message, but unfortunately the call to audit_cgroup_list() deadlocks the
system when booting a full blown OS. There's no deadlock when the call
is removed.

I guess that in some cases, cgroup_mutex and/or css_set_lock could be
already held earlier before entering audit_cgroup_list(). Holding the
locks is however required by task_cgroup_from_root(). Is there any way
to avoid this? For example, only print some kind of cgroup ID numbers
(are there unique and stable IDs, available without locks?) for those
cgroups where the task is registered in the audit message?

I could remove the cgroup part from the audit message entirely, but then
knowing which capabilities were used in what cgroup gets much more
difficult. The rest of the patch would be useful without it and of
course simpler.

In my earlier versions a per-task cap_used variable summarized all uses
of capabilities, but it was not clear when to reset the variable (fork?
exec? capset?), so it's gone for now. This was also used to rate limit
printing audit messages by only acting when each capability was first
used by the task, but now all uses of capabilities trigger audit
logging. Could that become a problem? I think it only makes sense to
summarize capability use per cgroup (via taskstats).

Subject: [PATCH] capabilities: audit capability use

There are many basic ways to control processes, including capabilities,
cgroups and resource limits. However, there are far fewer ways to find
out useful values for the limits, except blind trial and error.

Currently, there is no way to know which capabilities are actually used.
Even the source code is only implicit, in-depth knowledge of each
capability must be used when analyzing a program to judge which
capabilities the program will exercise.

Generate an audit message when capabilities are used. This can then be
used to configure capability sets for services by a software developer,
maintainer or system administrator.

Test case demonstrating basic capability monitoring with the new
message type 1330 and how the cgroups are displayed (boot to rdshell):

BusyBox v1.22.1 (Debian 1:1.22.0-19) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs) cd /sys/fs
