Subject: [PATCH v2] efi/efi_test: lock down /dev/efi_test and require CAP_SYS_ADMIN
Date: Tue,  8 Oct 2019 12:55:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191008105510.6975-1-javierm@redhat.com> (raw)

The driver exposes EFI runtime services to user-space through an IOCTL
interface, calling the EFI services function pointers directly without
using the efivar API.

Disallow access to the /dev/efi_test character device when the kernel is
locked down to prevent arbitrary user-space to call EFI runtime services.

Also require CAP_SYS_ADMIN to open the chardev to prevent unprivileged
users to call the EFI runtime services, instead of just relying on the
chardev file mode bits for this.

The main user of this driver is the fwts [0] tool that already checks if
the effective user ID is 0 and fails otherwise. So this change shouldn't
cause any regression to this tool.

Changes in v2:
- Also disable /dev/efi_test access when the kernel is locked down as
  suggested by Matthew Garrett.
- Add Acked-by tag from Laszlo Ersek.
