[PATCH net-next] sctp: add bpf_bypass_getsockopt proto callback

[PATCH net-next] sctp: add bpf_bypass_getsockopt proto callback

[Alexander Mikhalitsyn]

Add bpf_bypass_getsockopt proto callback and filter out
SCTP_SOCKOPT_PEELOFF and SCTP_SOCKOPT_PEELOFF_FLAGS socket options
from running eBPF hook on them.

These options do fd_install(), and if BPF_CGROUP_RUN_PROG_GETSOCKOPT
hook returns an error after success of the original handler
sctp_getsockopt(...), userspace will receive an error from getsockopt
syscall and will be not aware that fd was successfully installed into fdtable.

This patch was born as a result of discussion around a new SCM_PIDFD interface:

static bool ... ? You're not making it indirect-callable, so seems
fine to keep private to this compilation unit?

I read some of the emails in there but I don't get why the fd leak is
special here. I mean, I get that it leaks, but masking the error
return like this can lead to several other problems in the application
as well.

For example, SCTP_SOCKOPT_CONNECTX3 will trigger a connect(). If it
failed, and the hook returns success, the user app will at least log a
wrong "connection successful".

If the hook can't be responsible for cleaning up before returning a
different value, then maybe we want to extend the list of sockopts in
here. AFAICT these would be the 3 most critical sockopts.

Hi Stanislav!

Thanks for your review.

I've also added a Suggested-by tag with your name in -v2, because
you've given me this idea to use bpf_bypass_getsockopt.
Hope that you are comfortable with it.

Sure, my bad. Fixed in v2.

Dear Marcelo,

Thanks for pointing this out. Initially this problem was discovered by
Christian Brauner and for SO_PEERPIDFD (a new SOL_SOCKET option that
we want to add),
after this I decided to check if we do fd_install in any other socket
options in the kernel and found that we have 2 cases in SCTP. It was
an accidental finding. :)

So, this patch isn't specific to fd_install things and probably we
should filter out bpf hook from being called for other socket options
as well.

So, I need to filter out SCTP_SOCKOPT_CONNECTX3 and
SCTP_SOCKOPT_PEELOFF* for SCTP, right?

Kind regards,
Alex

Understood.

Gotta say, it seems weird that it will filter out some of the most
important sockopts. But I'm not acquainted to bpf hooks so I won't
question (much? :) ) that.

Considering that filtering is needed, then yes, on getsock those are
ones I'm seeing that needs filtering. Otherwise they will either
trigger leakage or will confuse the application.

Should we care about setsock as well? We have SCTP_SOCKOPT_CONNECTX
and SCTP_SOCKOPT_CONNECTX_OLD in there, and well, I guess any of those
would misbehave if they failed and yet the hook returns success.

Thanks,
Marcelo

Thanks for raising this. Alexander, maybe you can respin your v2 to
include these as well?

For setsockopt, the bpf program runs before the kernel, so setsockopt
shouldn't have those issues we're observing with getsockopt (which
runs after the kernel and has an option to ignore kernel value).
