Pull pivot_root() fix from Andy Lutomirski. Prevent a leak of unreachable mounts. * 'CVE-2014-7970' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/luto/linux: mnt: Prevent pivot_root from creating a loop in the mount tree
2014-10-14mnt: Prevent pivot_root from creating a loop in the mount treeEric W. Biederman1-0/+3
Andy Lutomirski recently demonstrated that when chroot is used to set the root path below the path for the new ``root'' passed to pivot_root the pivot_root system call succeeds and leaks mounts. In examining the code I see that starting with a new root that is below the current root in the mount tree will result in a loop in the mount tree after the mounts are detached and then reattached to one another. Resulting in all kinds of ugliness including a leak of that mounts involved in the leak of the mount loop. Prevent this problem by ensuring that the new mount is reachable from the current root of the mount tree. [Added stable cc.

Pull do_umount fix from Andy Lutomirski: "This fix really ought to be safe. Inside a mountns owned by a non-root user namespace, the namespace root almost always has MNT_LOCKED set (if it doesn't, then there's a bug, because rootfs could be exposed). In that case, calling umount on "/" will return -EINVAL with or without this patch. Outside a userns, this patch will have no effect. may_mount, required by umount, already checks ns_capable(current->nsproxy->mnt_ns->user_ns, CAP_SYS_ADMIN) so an additional capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) check will have no effect. That leaves anything that calls umount on "/" in a non-root userns while chrooted. This is the case that is currently broken (it remounts ro, which shouldn't be allowed) and that my patch changes to -EPERM.

2014-10-09vfs: Add a function to lazily unmount all mounts from any dentry.Eric W. Biederman1-0/+31
The new function detach_mounts comes in two pieces. The first piece is a static inline test of d_mounpoint that returns immediately without taking any locks if d_mounpoint is not set. In the common case when mountpoints are absent this allows the vfs to continue running with it's same cacheline foot print. The second piece of detach_mounts __detach_mounts actually does the work and it assumes that a mountpoint is present so it is slow and takes namespace_sem for write, and then locks the mount hash (aka mount_lock) after a struct mountpoint has been found. With those two locks held each entry on the list of mounts on a mountpoint is selected and lazily unmounted until all of the mount have been lazily unmounted. v7: Wrote a proper change description and removed the changelog documenting deleted wrong turns.

2014-10-09vfs: Don't allow overwriting mounts in the current mount namespaceEric W. Biederman1-0/+35
In preparation for allowing mountpoints to be renamed and unlinked in remote filesystems and in other mount namespaces test if on a dentry there is a mount in the local mount namespace before allowing it to be renamed or unlinked. The primary motivation here are old versions of fusermount unmount which is not safe if the a path can be renamed or unlinked while it is verifying the mount is safe to unmount. More recent versions are simpler and safer by simply using UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW when unmounting a mount in a directory owned by an arbitrary user. Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu> reports this is approach is good enough to remove concerns about new kernels mixed with old versions of fusermount. A secondary motivation for restrictions here is that it removing empty directories that have non-empty mount points on them appears to violate the rule that rmdir can not remove empty directories. As Linus Torvalds pointed out this is useful for programs (like git) that test if a directory is empty with rmdir. Therefore this patch arranges to enforce the existing mount point semantics for local mount namespace. v2: Rewrote the test to be a drop in replacement for d_mountpoint v3: Use bool instead of int as the return type of is_local_mountpoint Reviewed-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2014-10-09delayed mntputAl Viro1-18/+53
On final mntput() we want fs shutdown to happen before return to userland; however, the only case where we want it happen right there (i.e. where task_work_add won't do) is MNT_INTERNAL victim. Those have to be fully synchronous - failure halfway through module init might count on having vfsmount killed right there. Fortunately, final mntput on MNT_INTERNAL vfsmounts happens on shallow stack. So we handle those synchronously and do an analog of delayed fput logics for everything else. As the result, we are guaranteed that fs shutdown will always happen on shallow stack. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2014-08-30fix EBUSY on umount() from MNT_SHRINKABLEAl Viro1-0/+6
We need the parents of victims alive until namespace_unlock() gets to dput() of the (ex-)mountpoints. However, that screws up the "is it busy" checks in case when we have shrinkable mounts that need to be killed. Solution: go ahead and decrement refcounts of parents right in umount_tree(), increment them again just before dropping rwsem in namespace_unlock() (and let the loop in the end of namespace_unlock() finally drop those references for good, as we do now). Parents can't get freed until we drop rwsem - at least one reference is kept until then, both in case when parent is among the victims and when it is not. So they'll still be around when we get to namespace_unlock(). Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.12+ Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2014-08-11fix copy_tree() regressionAl Viro1-7/+24
Since 3.14 we had copy_tree() get the shadowing wrong - if we had one vfsmount shadowing another (i.e. if A is a slave of B, C is mounted on A/foo, then D got mounted on B/foo creating D' on A/foo shadowed by C), copy_tree() of A would make a copy of D' shadow the the copy of C, not the other way around. It's easy to fix, fortunately - just make sure that mount follows the one that shadows it in mnt_child as well as in mnt_hash, and when copy_tree() decides to attach a new mount, check if the last child it has added to the same parent should be shadowing the new one. And if it should, just use the same logics commit_tree() has - put the new mount into the hash and children lists right after the one that should shadow it.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman: "This is a bunch of small changes built against 3.16-rc6. The most significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling. The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the system wide root. Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only, no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing with a mounts atime settings. I have included my test case as the last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify this change works correctly. The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing nsproxy users for the first optimization. Today you can oops the kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever with pid namespaces. I rebased and fixed the build of the !CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo. Given that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be backported as well. The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing /proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it. This prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases. It is a user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line commits that can be trivially reverted.

2014-08-07death to mnt_pinnedAl Viro1-26/+9
Rather than playing silly buggers with vfsmount refcounts, just have acct_on() ask fs/namespace.c for internal clone of file->f_path.mnt and replace it with said clone. Then attach the pin to original vfsmount. Voila - the clone will be alive until the file gets closed, making sure that underlying superblock remains active, etc., and we can drop the original vfsmount, so that it's not kept busy. If the file lives until the final mntput of the original vfsmount, we'll notice that there's an fs_pin (one in bsd_acct_struct that holds that file) and mnt_pin_kill() will take it out. Since ->kill() is synchronous, we won't proceed past that point until these files are closed (and private clones of our vfsmount are gone), so we get the same ordering warranties we used to get. mnt_pin()/mnt_unpin()/->mnt_pinned is gone now, and good riddance - it never became usable outside of kernel/acct.c (and racy wrt umount even there).

2014-07-31mnt: Change the default remount atime from relatime to the existing valueEric W. Biederman1-0/+8
Since March 2009 the kernel has treated the state that if no MS_..ATIME flags are passed then the kernel defaults to relatime. Defaulting to relatime instead of the existing atime state during a remount is silly, and causes problems in practice for people who don't specify any MS_...ATIME flags and to get the default filesystem atime setting. Those users may encounter a permission error because the default atime setting does not work. A default that does not work and causes permission problems is ridiculous, so preserve the existing value to have a default atime setting that is always guaranteed to work. Using the default atime setting in this way is particularly interesting for applications built to run in restricted userspace environments without /proc mounted, as the existing atime mount options of a filesystem can not be read from /proc/mounts. In practice this fixes user space that uses the default atime setting on remount that are broken by the permission checks keeping less privileged users from changing more privileged users atime settings.

2014-07-31mnt: Correct permission checks in do_remountEric W. Biederman1-3/+33
While invesgiating the issue where in "mount --bind -oremount,ro ..." would result in later "mount --bind -oremount,rw" succeeding even if the mount started off locked I realized that there are several additional mount flags that should be locked and are not. In particular MNT_NOSUID, MNT_NODEV, MNT_NOEXEC, and the atime flags in addition to MNT_READONLY should all be locked. These flags are all per superblock, can all be changed with MS_BIND, and should not be changable if set by a more privileged user. The following additions to the current logic are added in this patch. - nosuid may not be clearable by a less privileged user. - nodev may not be clearable by a less privielged user. - noexec may not be clearable by a less privileged user. - atime flags may not be changeable by a less privileged user. The logic with atime is that always setting atime on access is a global policy and backup software and auditing software could break if atime bits are not updated (when they are configured to be updated), and serious performance degradation could result (DOS attack) if atime updates happen when they have been explicitly disabled. Therefore an unprivileged user should not be able to mess with the atime bits set by a more privileged user. The additional restrictions are implemented with the addition of MNT_LOCK_NOSUID, MNT_LOCK_NODEV, MNT_LOCK_NOEXEC, and MNT_LOCK_ATIME mnt flags. Taken together these changes and the fixes for MNT_LOCK_READONLY should make it safe for an unprivileged user to create a user namespace and to call "mount --bind -o remount,... ..." without the danger of mount flags being changed maliciously.

There are no races as locked mount flags are guaranteed to never change. Moving the test into do_remount makes it more visible, and ensures all filesystem remounts pass the MNT_LOCK_READONLY permission check.

Correct this by replacing the mask of mount flags to preserve with a mask of mount flags that may be changed, and preserve all others.

2014-07-29namespaces: Use task_lock and not rcu to protect nsproxyEric W. Biederman1-3/+3
The synchronous syncrhonize_rcu in switch_task_namespaces makes setns a sufficiently expensive system call that people have complained. Upon inspect nsproxy no longer needs rcu protection for remote reads. remote reads are rare. So optimize for same process reads and write by switching using rask_lock instead. This yields a simpler to understand lock, and a faster setns system call. In particular this fixes a performance regression observed by Rafael David Tinoco <rafael.tinoco@canonical.com>. This is effectively a revert of Pavel Emelyanov's commit cf7b708c8d1d7a27736771bcf4c457b332b0f818 Make access to task's nsproxy lighter from 2007.

2014-04-01smarter propagate_mnt()Al Viro1-3/+8
The current mainline has copies propagated to *all* nodes, then tears down the copies we made for nodes that do not contain counterparts of the desired mountpoint. That sets the right propagation graph for the copies (at teardown time we move the slaves of removed node to a surviving peer or directly to master), but we end up paying a fairly steep price in useless allocations. It's fairly easy to create a situation where N calls of mount(2) create exactly N bindings, with O(N^2) vfsmounts allocated and freed in process. Fortunately, it is possible to avoid those allocations/freeings. The trick is to create copies in the right order and find which one would've eventually become a master with the current algorithm. It turns out to be possible in O(nodes getting propagation) time and with no extra allocations at all. One part is that we need to make sure that eventual master will be created before its slaves, so we need to walk the propagation tree in a different order - by peer groups. And iterate through the peers before dealing with the next group. Another thing is finding the (earlier) copy that will be a master of one we are about to create; to do that we are (temporary) marking the masters of mountpoints we are attaching the copies to. Either we are in a peer of the last mountpoint we'd dealt with, or we have the following situation: we are attaching to mountpoint M, the last copy S_0 had been attached to M_0 and there are sequences S_0...S_n, M_0...M_n such that S_{i+1} is a master of S_{i}, S_{i} mounted on M{i} and we need to create a slave of the first S_{k} such that M is getting propagation from M_{k}. It means that the master of M_{k} will be among the sequence of masters of M. On the other hand, the nearest marked node in that sequence will either be the master of M_{k} or the master of M_{k-1} (the latter - in the case if M_{k-1} is a slave of something M gets propagation from, but in a wrong peer group). So we go through the sequence of masters of M until we find a marked one (P). Let N be the one before it. Then we go through the sequence of masters of S_0 until we find one (say, S) mounted on a node D that has P as master and check if D is a peer of N. If it is, S will be the master of new copy, if not - the master of S will be. That's it for the hard part; the rest is fairly simple. Iterator is in next_group(), handling of one prospective mountpoint is propagate_one(). It seems to survive all tests and gives a noticably better performance than the current mainline for setups that are seriously using shared subtrees.

Pull driver core / sysfs patches from Greg KH: "Here's the big driver core and sysfs patch set for 3.14-rc1. There's a lot of work here moving sysfs logic out into a "kernfs" to allow other subsystems to also have a virtual filesystem with the same attributes of sysfs (handle device disconnect, dynamic creation / removal as needed / unneeded, etc) This is primarily being done for the cgroups filesystem, but the goal is to also move debugfs to it when it is ready, solving all of the known issues in that filesystem as well. The code isn't completed yet, but all should be stable now (there is a big section that was reverted due to problems found when testing) There's also some other smaller fixes, and a driver core addition that allows for a "collection" of objects, that the DRM people will be using soon (it's in this tree to make merges after -rc1 easier) All of this has been in linux-next with no reported issues" * tag 'driver-core-3.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (113 commits) kernfs: associate a new kernfs_node with its parent on creation kernfs: add struct dentry declaration in kernfs.h kernfs: fix get_active failure handling in kernfs_seq_*() Revert "kernfs: fix get_active failure handling in kernfs_seq_*()" Revert "kernfs: replace kernfs_node->u.completion with kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq" Revert "kernfs: remove KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and add kernfs_lockdep()" Revert "kernfs: remove KERNFS_REMOVED" Revert "kernfs: restructure removal path to fix possible premature return" Revert "kernfs: invoke kernfs_unmap_bin_file() directly from __kernfs_remove()" Revert "kernfs: remove kernfs_addrm_cxt" Revert "kernfs: make kernfs_get_active() block if the node is deactivated but not removed" Revert "kernfs: implement kernfs_{de|re}activate[_self]()" Revert "kernfs, sysfs, driver-core: implement kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers" Revert "pci: use device_remove_file_self() instead of device_schedule_callback()" Revert "scsi: use device_remove_file_self() instead of device_schedule_callback()" Revert "s390: use device_remove_file_self() instead of device_schedule_callback()" Revert "sysfs, driver-core: remove unused {sysfs|device}_schedule_callback_owner()" Revert "kernfs: remove unnecessary NULL check in __kernfs_remove()" kernfs: remove unnecessary NULL check in __kernfs_remove() drivers/base: provide an infrastructure for componentised subsystems ...
2013-11-29sysfs, kernfs: prepare mount path for kernfsTejun Heo1-0/+2
We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly. This patch rearranges mount path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate. * As sysfs_super_info won't be visible outside kernfs proper, kernfs_super_ns() is added to allow kernfs users to access a super_block's namespace tag. * Generic mount operation is separated out into kernfs_mount_ns(). sysfs_mount() now just performs sysfs-specific permission check, acquires namespace tag, and invokes kernfs_mount_ns(). * Generic superblock release is separated out into kernfs_kill_sb() which can be used directly as file_system_type->kill_sb(). As sysfs needs to put the namespace tag, sysfs_kill_sb() wraps kernfs_kill_sb() with ns tag put. * sysfs_dir_cachep init and sysfs_inode_init() are separated out into kernfs_init(). kernfs_init() uses only small amount of memory and trying to handle and propagate kernfs_init() failure doesn't make much sense. Use SLAB_PANIC for sysfs_dir_cachep and make sysfs_inode_init() panic on failure. After this change, kernfs_init() should be called before sysfs_init(), fs/namespace.c::mnt_init() modified accordingly.

2013-11-26vfs: Fix a regression in mounting procEric W. Biederman1-1/+1
Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> reported that commit e51db73532955dc5eaba4235e62b74b460709d5b userns: Better restrictions on when proc and sysfs can be mounted caused a regression on mounting a new instance of proc in a mount namespace created with user namespace privileges, when binfmt_misc is mounted on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc. This is an unintended regression caused by the absolutely bogus empty directory check in fs_fully_visible. The check fs_fully_visible replaced didn't even bother to attempt to verify proc was fully visible and hiding proc files with any kind of mount is rare. So for now fix the userspace regression by allowing directory with nlink == 1 as /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc has. I will have a better patch but it is not stable material, or last minute kernel material. So it will have to wait.

2013-11-09RCU'd vfsmountsAl Viro1-48/+87
* RCU-delayed freeing of vfsmounts * vfsmount_lock replaced with a seqlock (mount_lock) * sequence number from mount_lock is stored in nameidata->m_seq and used when we exit RCU mode * new vfsmount flag - MNT_SYNC_UMOUNT. Set by umount_tree() when its caller knows that vfsmount will have no surviving references. * synchronize_rcu() done between unlocking namespace_sem in namespace_unlock() and doing pending mntput(). * new helper: legitimize_mnt(mnt, seq). Checks the mount_lock sequence number against seq, then grabs reference to mnt. Then it rechecks mount_lock again to close the race and either returns success or drops the reference it has acquired. The subtle point is that in case of MNT_SYNC_UMOUNT we can simply decrement the refcount and sod off - aforementioned synchronize_rcu() makes sure that final mntput() won't come until we leave RCU mode. We need that, since we don't want to end up with some lazy pathwalk racing with umount() and stealing the final mntput() from it - caller of umount() may expect it to return only once the fs is shut down and we don't want to break that. In other cases (i.e. with MNT_SYNC_UMOUNT absent) we have to do full-blown mntput() in case of mount_lock sequence number mismatch happening just as we'd grabbed the reference, but in those cases we won't be stealing the final mntput() from anything that would care. * mntput_no_expire() doesn't lock anything on the fast path now. Incidentally, SMP and UP cases are handled the same way - no ifdefs there. * normal pathname resolution does *not* do any writes to mount_lock. It does, of course, bump the refcounts of vfsmount and dentry in the very end, but that's it. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
