Hi Eric,

Sorry that it's taken a while to get this update sent out. In part
that's because of a few problems I found, which resulted in some new
patches.

I wanted to point out one problem in particular because I'm not fully
settled on the solution. It turns out that for the sysfs and cgroup
filesystems we already have use cases where a super block is mounted
from multiple user namespaces. With sysfs this is done when criu is used
to snapshot a container; it will mount sysfs in the container's network
namespace but the host's user namespace. cgroup fs uses the same super
block for all mounts of a given hierarchy, and the addition of cgroup
namespaces makes this possible from within non-init user namepsaces. So
the check in sget_userns() which forbids mounting an existing super
block in a different user namespace causes regressions, and really it's
not necessary for these filesystems since ids in the inodes aren't
subect to translation relative to s_user_ns.

I've tried several ways to fix this. The one I'm sending here is to
exempt these filesystems from this requirement, which is the simplest
solution. The down side is that I couldn't find any existing property of
these file systems to use for excluding them, so I'm using a new file
system flag. My second-best option was to change kernfs_test_super() to
return false if the existing super block is in a different user
namespace. This is also pretty simple and works fine for sysfs, but
cgroups require some updating in order to get its internal reference
counting to work out.

These patches are based on the for-testing branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git
with everything rebased onto 4.6-rc4. I've also pushed everything to:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sforshee/linux.git fuse-userns

Changes since v2:

- Add patch from Pavel Tikhomirov to fix a potential memory leak in
sget_userns().
- Add a patch to fix a bug in the fs_fully_visible() MNT_LOCK_NODEV
handling which was introduced by "userns: Simpilify MNT_NODEV
handling."
- Drop patch to make root in s_user_ns capable towards that superblock
and replace it with a patch to allow root in s_user_ns to change
ownership of inodes with invalid ids.
- Use make_k[ug]id() in fuse_fillattr() instead of copying ids from
inode.
- Remove unnecessary initialization of user_id and group_id in fuse
mount options.
- Add a comment to get_file_caps() to indicate that the duplicate
in_userns() check is intentional.
- Fix incorrect statements in commit message of "fuse: Add support for
pid namespaces"
- Added acks.

Thanks,
Seth

Unprivileged users should not be able to mount block devices when
they lack sufficient privileges towards the block device inode.
Update blkdev_get_by_path() to validate that the user has the
required access to the inode at the specified path. The check
will be skipped for CAP_SYS_ADMIN, so privileged mounts will
continue working as before.

Superblock level remounts are currently restricted to global
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, as is the path for changing the root mount to
read only on umount. Loosen both of these permission checks to
also allow CAP_SYS_ADMIN in any namespace which is privileged
towards the userns which originally mounted the filesystem.

When looking up a block device by path no permission check is
done to verify that the user has access to the block device inode
at the specified path. In some cases it may be necessary to
check permissions towards the inode, such as allowing
unprivileged users to mount block devices in user namespaces.

Add an argument to lookup_bdev() to optionally perform this
permission check. A value of 0 skips the permission check and
behaves the same as before. A non-zero value specifies the mask
of access rights required towards the inode at the specified
path. The check is always skipped if the user has CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

All callers of lookup_bdev() currently pass a mask of 0, so this
patch results in no functional change. Subsequent patches will
add permission checks where appropriate.

The SMACK64, SMACK64EXEC, and SMACK64MMAP labels are all handled
differently in untrusted mounts. This is confusing and
potentically problematic. Change this to handle them all the same
way that SMACK64 is currently handled; that is, read the label
from disk and check it at use time. For SMACK64 and SMACK64MMAP
access is denied if the label does not match smk_root. To be
consistent with suid, a SMACK64EXEC label which does not match
smk_root will still allow execution of the file but will not run
with the label supplied in the xattr.

In a userns mount some on-disk inodes may have ids which do not
map into s_user_ns, in which case the in-kernel inodes are owned
by invalid users. The superblock owner should be able to change
attributes of these inodes but cannot. However it is unsafe to
grant the superblock owner privileged access to all inodes in the
superblock since proc, sysfs, etc. use DAC to protect files which
may not belong to s_user_ns. The problem is restricted to only
inodes where the owner or group is an invalid user.

We can work around this by allowing users with CAP_CHOWN in
s_user_ns to change an invalid owner or group id, so long as the
other id is either invalid or mappable in s_user_ns. After
changing ownership the user will be privileged towards the inode
and thus able to change other attributes.

As an precaution, checks for invalid ids are added to the proc
and kernfs setattr interfaces. These filesystems are not expected
to have inodes with invalid ids, but if it does happen any
setattr operations will return -EPERM.

Filesystem uids which don't map into a user namespace may result
in inode->i_uid being INVALID_UID. A symlink and its parent
could have different owners in the filesystem can both get
mapped to INVALID_UID, which may result in following a symlink
when this would not have otherwise been permitted when protected
symlinks are enabled.

Add a new helper function, uid_valid_eq(), and use this to
validate that the ids in may_follow_link() are both equal and
valid. Also add an equivalent helper for gids, which is
currently unused.

When the userspace process servicing fuse requests is running in
a pid namespace then pids passed via the fuse fd are not being
translated into that process' namespace. Translation is necessary
for the pid to be useful to that process.

Since no use case currently exists for changing namespaces all
translations can be done relative to the pid namespace in use
when fuse_conn_init() is called. For fuse this translates to
mount time, and for cuse this is when /dev/cuse is opened. IO for
this connection from another namespace will return errors.

Requests from processes whose pid cannot be translated into the
target namespace are not permitted, except for requests
allocated via fuse_get_req_nofail_nopages. For no-fail requests
in.h.pid will be 0 if the pid translation fails.

File locking changes based on previous work done by Eric
Biederman.

All current callers of in_userns pass current_user_ns as the
first argument. Simplify by replacing in_userns with
current_in_userns which checks whether current_user_ns is in the
namespace supplied as an argument.

In order to support mounts from namespaces other than
init_user_ns, fuse must translate uids and gids to/from the
userns of the process servicing requests on /dev/fuse. This
patch does that, with a couple of restrictions on the namespace:

- The userns for the fuse connection is fixed to the namespace
from which /dev/fuse is opened.

- The namespace must be the same as s_user_ns.

These restrictions simplify the implementation by avoiding the
need to pass around userns references and by allowing fuse to
rely on the checks in inode_change_ok for ownership changes.
Either restriction could be relaxed in the future if needed.

For cuse the namespace used for the connection is also simply
current_user_ns() at the time /dev/cuse is opened.

Unprivileged users are normally restricted from mounting with the
allow_other option by system policy, but this could be bypassed
for a mount done with user namespace root permissions. In such
cases allow_other should not allow users outside the userns
to access the mount as doing so would give the unprivileged user
the ability to manipulate processes it would otherwise be unable
to manipulate. Restrict allow_other to apply to users in the same
userns used at mount or a descendant of that namespace.

Security labels from unprivileged mounts in user namespaces must
be ignored. Force superblocks from user namespaces whose labeling
behavior is to use xattrs to use mountpoint labeling instead.
For the mountpoint label, default to converting the current task
context into a form suitable for file objects, but also allow the
policy writer to specify a different label through policy
transition rules.

Pieced together from code snippets provided by Stephen Smalley.

fs_fully_visible() ignores MNT_LOCK_NODEV when FS_USERS_DEV_MOUNT
is not set for the filesystem, but there is a bug in the logic
that may cause mounting to fail. It is doing this only when the
existing mount is not in init_user_ns but should check the new
mount instead. But the new mount is always in a non-init
namespace when fs_fully_visible() is called, so that condition
can simply be removed.

From: Andy Lutomirski <lu...@amacapital.net>

If a process gets access to a mount from a different user
namespace, that process should not be able to take advantage of
setuid files or selinux entrypoints from that filesystem. Prevent
this by treating mounts from other mount namespaces and those not
owned by current_user_ns() or an ancestor as nosuid.

This will make it safer to allow more complex filesystems to be
mounted in non-root user namespaces.

This does not remove the need for MNT_LOCK_NOSUID. The setuid,
setgid, and file capability bits can no longer be abused if code in
a user namespace were to clear nosuid on an untrusted filesystem,
but this patch, by itself, is insufficient to protect the system
from abuse of files that, when execed, would increase MAC privilege.

As a more concrete explanation, any task that can manipulate a
vfsmount associated with a given user namespace already has
capabilities in that namespace and all of its descendents. If they
can cause a malicious setuid, setgid, or file-caps executable to
appear in that mount, then that executable will only allow them to
elevate privileges in exactly the set of namespaces in which they
are already privileges.

On the other hand, if they can cause a malicious executable to
appear with a dangerous MAC label, running it could change the
caller's security context in a way that should not have been
possible, even inside the namespace in which the task is confined.

As a hardening measure, this would have made CVE-2014-5207 much
more difficult to exploit.

Both of these filesystems already have use cases for mounting the
same super block from multiple user namespaces. For sysfs this
happens when using criu for snapshotting a container, where sysfs
is mounted in the containers network ns but the hosts user ns.
The cgroup filesystem shares the same super block for all mounts
of the same hierarchy regardless of the namespace.

As a result, the restriction on mounting a super block from a
single user namespace creates regressions for existing uses of
these filesystems. For these specific filesystems this
restriction isn't really necessary since the backing store is
objects in kernel memory and thus the ids assigned from inodes
is not subject to translation relative to s_user_ns.

Add a new filesystem flag, FS_USERNS_SHARE_SB, which when set
causes sget_userns() to skip the check of s_user_ns. Set this
flag for the sysfs and cgroup filesystems to fix the
regressions.

bug a request below,
This confused me to no end :) Perhaps a "is_unmapped_valid_gid()" helper
would make it clearer what this is meant to do? Or else maybe a comment
above chown_ok(), explaining that

1. for a blockdev, the uid is converted at inode read so that it is
either mapped or invalid
2. for sysfs / etc, uid can be valid but not mapped into the userns

The SMACK64, SMACK64EXEC, and SMACK64MMAP labels are all handled
differently in untrusted mounts. This is confusing and
potentically problematic. Change this to handle them all the same
way that SMACK64 is currently handled; that is, read the label
from disk and check it at use time. For SMACK64 and SMACK64MMAP
access is denied if the label does not match smk_root. To be
consistent with suid, a SMACK64EXEC label which does not match
smk_root will still allow execution of the file but will not run
with the label supplied in the xattr.

Unprivileged users are normally restricted from mounting with the
allow_other option by system policy, but this could be bypassed
for a mount done with user namespace root permissions. In such
cases allow_other should not allow users outside the userns
to access the mount as doing so would give the unprivileged user
the ability to manipulate processes it would otherwise be unable
to manipulate. Restrict allow_other to apply to users in the same
userns used at mount or a descendant of that namespace. Also
export current_in_userns() for use by fuse when built as a
module.

When the userspace process servicing fuse requests is running in
a pid namespace then pids passed via the fuse fd are not being
translated into that process' namespace. Translation is necessary
for the pid to be useful to that process.

Since no use case currently exists for changing namespaces all
translations can be done relative to the pid namespace in use
when fuse_conn_init() is called. For fuse this translates to
mount time, and for cuse this is when /dev/cuse is opened. IO for
this connection from another namespace will return errors.

Requests from processes whose pid cannot be translated into the
target namespace are not permitted, except for requests
allocated via fuse_get_req_nofail_nopages. For no-fail requests
in.h.pid will be 0 if the pid translation fails.

File locking changes based on previous work done by Eric
Biederman.

Unprivileged users should not be able to mount block devices when
they lack sufficient privileges towards the block device inode.
Update blkdev_get_by_path() to validate that the user has the
required access to the inode at the specified path. The check
will be skipped for CAP_SYS_ADMIN, so privileged mounts will
continue working as before.

Superblock level remounts are currently restricted to global
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, as is the path for changing the root mount to
read only on umount. Loosen both of these permission checks to
also allow CAP_SYS_ADMIN in any namespace which is privileged
towards the userns which originally mounted the filesystem.

In order to support mounts from namespaces other than
init_user_ns, fuse must translate uids and gids to/from the
userns of the process servicing requests on /dev/fuse. This
patch does that, with a couple of restrictions on the namespace:

- The userns for the fuse connection is fixed to the namespace
from which /dev/fuse is opened.

- The namespace must be the same as s_user_ns.

These restrictions simplify the implementation by avoiding the
need to pass around userns references and by allowing fuse to
rely on the checks in inode_change_ok for ownership changes.
Either restriction could be relaxed in the future if needed.

For cuse the namespace used for the connection is also simply
current_user_ns() at the time /dev/cuse is opened.

All current callers of in_userns pass current_user_ns as the
first argument. Simplify by replacing in_userns with
current_in_userns which checks whether current_user_ns is in the
namespace supplied as an argument.

Both of these filesystems already have use cases for mounting the
same super block from multiple user namespaces. For sysfs this
happens when using criu for snapshotting a container, where sysfs
is mounted in the containers network ns but the hosts user ns.
The cgroup filesystem shares the same super block for all mounts
of the same hierarchy regardless of the namespace.

As a result, the restriction on mounting a super block from a
single user namespace creates regressions for existing uses of
these filesystems. For these specific filesystems this
restriction isn't really necessary since the backing store is
objects in kernel memory and thus the ids assigned from inodes
is not subject to translation relative to s_user_ns.

Add a new filesystem flag, FS_USERNS_SHARE_SB, which when set
causes sget_userns() to skip the check of s_user_ns. Set this
flag for the sysfs and cgroup filesystems to fix the
regressions.

When looking up a block device by path no permission check is
done to verify that the user has access to the block device inode
at the specified path. In some cases it may be necessary to
check permissions towards the inode, such as allowing
unprivileged users to mount block devices in user namespaces.

Add an argument to lookup_bdev() to optionally perform this
permission check. A value of 0 skips the permission check and
behaves the same as before. A non-zero value specifies the mask
of access rights required towards the inode at the specified
path. The check is always skipped if the user has CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

All callers of lookup_bdev() currently pass a mask of 0, so this
patch results in no functional change. Subsequent patches will
add permission checks where appropriate.

to
In a userns mount some on-disk inodes may have ids which do not
map into s_user_ns, in which case the in-kernel inodes are owned
by invalid users. The superblock owner should be able to change
attributes of these inodes but cannot. However it is unsafe to
grant the superblock owner privileged access to all inodes in the
superblock since proc, sysfs, etc. use DAC to protect files which
may not belong to s_user_ns. The problem is restricted to only
inodes where the owner or group is an invalid user.

We can work around this by allowing users with CAP_CHOWN in
s_user_ns to change an invalid owner or group id, so long as the
other id is either invalid or mappable in s_user_ns. After
changing ownership the user will be privileged towards the inode
and thus able to change other attributes.

As an precaution, checks for invalid ids are added to the proc
and kernfs setattr interfaces. These filesystems are not expected
to have inodes with invalid ids, but if it does happen any
setattr operations will return -EPERM.

Even with a helper a comment is probably helpful to explain why. I'll do
that first, then see if a helper would make things any clearer.
Honestly, I had to think about the helper name you proposed for a minute
before it made sense even though I already understood the code ;-)

Hi Eric,

Here's another update to my patches for mouning with fuse from
unpivileged user namespaces. The main change here is a fix for a build
failure when fuse is built as a module. As usual the series is also
available at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sforshee/linux.git fuse-userns

Changes since v3:

* Export current_in_userns() to fix an error when fuse is built as a
module.
* Add comment explaining the conditions for allowing CAP_CHOWN in
s_user_ns to change the owner or group of an inode.
* Added acks from Serge.

Thanks,
Seth

Security labels from unprivileged mounts in user namespaces must
be ignored. Force superblocks from user namespaces whose labeling
behavior is to use xattrs to use mountpoint labeling instead.
For the mountpoint label, default to converting the current task
context into a form suitable for file objects, but also allow the
policy writer to specify a different label through policy
transition rules.

Pieced together from code snippets provided by Stephen Smalley.

Filesystem uids which don't map into a user namespace may result
in inode->i_uid being INVALID_UID. A symlink and its parent
could have different owners in the filesystem can both get
mapped to INVALID_UID, which may result in following a symlink
when this would not have otherwise been permitted when protected
symlinks are enabled.

Add a new helper function, uid_valid_eq(), and use this to
validate that the ids in may_follow_link() are both equal and
valid. Also add an equivalent helper for gids, which is
currently unused.

fs_fully_visible() ignores MNT_LOCK_NODEV when FS_USERS_DEV_MOUNT
is not set for the filesystem, but there is a bug in the logic
that may cause mounting to fail. It is doing this only when the
existing mount is not in init_user_ns but should check the new
mount instead. But the new mount is always in a non-init
namespace when fs_fully_visible() is called, so that condition
can simply be removed.

If a process gets access to a mount from a different user
namespace, that process should not be able to take advantage of
setuid files or selinux entrypoints from that filesystem. Prevent
this by treating mounts from other mount namespaces and those not
owned by current_user_ns() or an ancestor as nosuid.

I'm not sure that this makes sense given what you're doing. In the
case of Seth's set, a filesystem is mounted specifically (and privately)
in a user namespace. We don't want for instance the initial user ns
to find a link to a setuid-root exploit left in the container-mounted
filesystem.

But you are having a parent user namespace mount the fs so that its
children can all access the fs, uid-shifted for convenience. Not
allowing the child namespaces to make use of setuid-root does not
seem applicable here.

Right, the problem addressed by this patch probably isn't relevant to
this sort of uid shifting.

But I think there's another problem that needs to be addressed.
bprm_fill_uid() still gets the ids for sxid files unshifted from the
inode. We already protect against sxid to any user not in
bprm->cred->user_ns, so it will just ignore the sxid instead of e.g.
suid as global root from the id shifted mount, which is good. What would
be wanted though is to use the shifted ids so that something like
suid-root ping in the container rootfs would work.

I'll have another deep look into it, yes the aim when I ported this, is
I was not sure about setns(), or if you get a handle to a mount
namespace through /proc or anything else... then you call into it from
an external user namespace.

This patch caused a regression in our major container use case with
FUSE in Ubuntu 16.04, as patch was checked in as Ubuntu Sauce in
Ubuntu 4.4.0-6.21 kernel.

The use case is:
1. Create a Docker container.
2. Inside the container, start the FUSE backend, and mounted fs.
3. Following step 2 in the container, create a loopback device to map
a file in the mounted fuse to create a block device, which will be
available to the whole system.

It works well before this commit.

The use case is broken because no matter which namespace losetup runs,
the real request from loopback device seems always come from init ns,
thus it will be in different ns running fuse backend. So the request
will got denied, because the ns running fuse won't able to see the
things from higher level(level 0 in fact) pid namespace.

I think since init pid ns has ability to access any process in the
system, it should able to access the fuse mounted by any pid namespace
process as well.

What you think?

It sounds like we need to remove the restriction on accessing the
filesystem from a different pid namespace. I don't think this poses a
security problem. However there's no pid mapping that is usable by the
userspace fuse process, so what do we put in the fuse request? Probably
the only candidates are 0 and 0xffffffff.

So a question for the fuse developers - is one value or the other
preferrable for fuse_in_header.pid when the pid cannot be mapped, and is
this going to cause problems for any fuse filesystems? I suspect that
few filesystems actually look at the pid anyway, and already for a
filesystem mounted in a pid namespace the values being given to
userspace won't be correct for the namespace of the fuse process.

Thanks Seth, I don't think it will be a security problem either, if we
remove the restriction.

At least in our system we're not looking into the pid at all.

pid = 0 sounds good.

The pid from the request is used for example to get the auxiliary
group list by libfuse (fuse_req_getgroups()). That's not used by all
filesystems and it will return an error in case it can't find the proc
entry (which it won't for pid == 0).

It would be nice if we could transfer the group list through the
userspace/kernel protocol, since then it wouldn't depend on proc and
on being in the same pid namespace. But that's another story.

Thanks,
Miklos
