2014-02-20SELinux: bigendian problems with filename trans rulesEric Paris1-4/+4
When writing policy via /sys/fs/selinux/policy I wrote the type and class of filename trans rules in CPU endian instead of little endian. On x86_64 this works just fine, but it means that on big endian arch's like ppc64 and s390 userspace reads the policy and converts it from le32_to_cpu. So the values are all screwed up. Write the values in le format like it should have been to start.

2013-07-25SELinux: fix selinuxfs policy file on big endian systemsEric Paris1-2/+1
The /sys/fs/selinux/policy file is not valid on big endian systems like ppc64 or s390. Let's see why: static int hashtab_cnt(void *key, void *data, void *ptr) { int *cnt = ptr; *cnt = *cnt + 1; return 0; } static int range_write(struct policydb *p, void *fp) { size_t nel; [...] /* count the number of entries in the hashtab */ nel = 0; rc = hashtab_map(p->range_tr, hashtab_cnt, &nel); if (rc) return rc; buf[0] = cpu_to_le32(nel); rc = put_entry(buf, sizeof(u32), 1, fp); So size_t is 64 bits. But then we pass a pointer to it as we do to hashtab_cnt. hashtab_cnt thinks it is a 32 bit int and only deals with the first 4 bytes. On x86_64 which is little endian, those first 4 bytes and the least significant, so this works out fine. On ppc64/s390 those first 4 bytes of memory are the high order bits. So at the end of the call to hashtab_map nel has a HUGE number. But the least significant 32 bits are all 0's. We then pass that 64 bit number to cpu_to_le32() which happily truncates it to a 32 bit number and does endian swapping. But the low 32 bits are all 0's. So no matter how many entries are in the hashtab, big endian systems always say there are 0 entries because I screwed up the counting. The fix is easy. Use a 32 bit int, as the hashtab_cnt expects, for nel. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <pmoore@redhat.com>
2013-06-08SELinux: Add new labeling type native labelsDavid Quigley1-1/+4
There currently doesn't exist a labeling type that is adequate for use with labeled NFS. Since NFS doesn't really support xattrs we can't use the use xattr labeling behavior. For this we developed a new labeling type. The native labeling type is used solely by NFS to ensure NFS inodes are labeled at runtime by the NFS code instead of relying on the SELinux security server on the client end.

Right now we walk to filename trans rule list for every inode that is created. First passes at policy using this facility creates around 5000 filename trans rules. Running a list of 5000 entries every time is a bad idea. This patch adds a new ebitmap to policy which has a bit set for each ttype that has at least 1 filename trans rule.

2011-02-01SELinux: Use dentry name in new object labelingEric Paris1-0/+130
Currently SELinux has rules which label new objects according to 3 criteria. The label of the process creating the object, the label of the parent directory, and the type of object (reg, dir, char, block, etc.) This patch adds a 4th criteria, the dentry name, thus we can distinguish between creating a file in an etc_t directory called shadow and one called motd. There is no file globbing, regex parsing, or anything mystical. Either the policy exactly (strcmp) matches the dentry name of the object or it doesn't.

2010-08-02selinux: convert the policy type_attr_map to flex_arrayEric Paris1-10/+31
Current selinux policy can have over 3000 types. The type_attr_map in policy is an array sized by the number of types times sizeof(struct ebitmap) (12 on x86_64). Basic math tells us the array is going to be of length 3000 x 12 = 36,000 bytes. The largest 'safe' allocation on a long running system is 16k. Most of the time a 32k allocation will work. But on long running systems a 64k allocation (what we need) can fail quite regularly. In order to deal with this I am converting the type_attr_map to use flex_arrays. Let the library code deal with breaking this into PAGE_SIZE pieces. -v2 rework some of the if(!obj) BUG() to be BUG_ON(!obj) drop flex_array_put() calls and just use a _get() object directly -v3 make apply to James' tree (drop the policydb_write changes) Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Acked-by: Stephen D.

2009-10-07selinux: dynamic class/perm discoveryStephen Smalley1-2/+45
Modify SELinux to dynamically discover class and permission values upon policy load, based on the dynamic object class/perm discovery logic from libselinux. A mapping is created between kernel-private class and permission indices used outside the security server and the policy values used within the security server. The mappings are only applied upon kernel-internal computations; similar mappings for the private indices of userspace object managers is handled on a per-object manager basis by the userspace AVC. The interfaces for compute_av and transition_sid are split for kernel vs. userspace; the userspace functions are distinguished by a _user suffix. The kernel-private class indices are no longer tied to the policy values and thus do not need to skip indices for userspace classes; thus the kernel class index values are compressed. The flask.h definitions were regenerated by deleting the userspace classes from refpolicy's definitions and then regenerating the headers. Going forward, we can just maintain the flask.h, av_permissions.h, and classmap.h definitions separately from policy as they are no longer tied to the policy values. The next patch introduces a utility to automate generation of flask.h and av_permissions.h from the classmap.h definitions. The older kernel class and permission string tables are removed and replaced by a single security class mapping table that is walked at policy load to generate the mapping. The old kernel class validation logic is completely replaced by the mapping logic. The handle unknown logic is reworked. reject_unknown=1 is handled when the mappings are computed at policy load time, similar to the old handling by the class validation logic. allow_unknown=1 is handled when computing and mapping decisions - if the permission was not able to be mapped (i.e. undefined, mapped to zero), then it is automatically added to the allowed vector. If the class was not able to be mapped (i.e. undefined, mapped to zero), then all permissions are allowed for it if allow_unknown=1. avc_audit leverages the new security class mapping table to lookup the class and permission names from the kernel-private indices. The mdp program is updated to use the new table when generating the class definitions and allow rules for a minimal boot policy for the kernel. It should be noted that this policy will not include any userspace classes, nor will its policy index values for the kernel classes correspond with the ones in refpolicy (they will instead match the kernel-private indices).

2008-08-29SELinux: add boundary support and thread context assignmentKaiGai Kohei1-14/+191
The purpose of this patch is to assign per-thread security context under a constraint. It enables multi-threaded server application to kick a request handler with its fair security context, and helps some of userspace object managers to handle user's request. When we assign a per-thread security context, it must not have wider permissions than the original one. Because a multi-threaded process shares a single local memory, an arbitary per-thread security context also means another thread can easily refer violated information. The constraint on a per-thread security context requires a new domain has to be equal or weaker than its original one, when it tries to assign a per-thread security context. Bounds relationship between two types is a way to ensure a domain can never have wider permission than its bounds. We can define it in two explicit or implicit ways. The first way is using new TYPEBOUNDS statement. It enables to define a boundary of types explicitly. The other one expand the concept of existing named based hierarchy. If we defines a type with "." separated name like "httpd_t.php", toolchain implicitly set its bounds on "httpd_t". This feature requires a new policy version. The 24th version (POLICYDB_VERSION_BOUNDARY) enables to ship them into kernel space, and the following patch enables to handle it.

2008-07-14selinux: fix endianness bug in network node address handlingStephen Smalley1-7/+8
Fix an endianness bug in the handling of network node addresses by SELinux. This yields no change on little endian hardware but fixes the incorrect handling on big endian hardware. The network node addresses are stored in network order in memory by checkpolicy, not in cpu/host order, and thus should not have cpu_to_le32/le32_to_cpu conversions applied upon policy write/read unlike other data in the policy. Bug reported by John Weeks of Sun, who noticed that binary policy files built from the same policy source on x86 and sparc differed and tracked it down to the ipv4 address handling in checkpolicy.

2008-04-21changing whitespace for fun and profit: policydb.cEric Paris1-68/+63
More formatting changes. Aside from the 80 character line limit even the checkpatch scripts like this file now. Too bad I don't get paid by the lines of code I change. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
2008-04-21SELinux: clean up printksEric Paris1-8/+9
Make sure all printk start with KERN_* Make sure all printk end with \n Make sure all printk have the word 'selinux' in them Change "function name" to "%s", __func__ (found 2 wrong) Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
2008-04-18selinux: introduce permissive typesEric Paris1-0/+11
Introduce the concept of a permissive type. A new ebitmap is introduced to the policy database which indicates if a given type has the permissive bit set or not. This bit is tested for the scontext of any denial. The bit is meaningless on types which only appear as the target of a decision and never the source. A domain running with a permissive type will be allowed to perform any action similarly to when the system is globally set permissive.
