vfs: Test for and handle paths that are unreachable from their mnt_root

2015-10-05T20:02:55+00:00

commit 397d425dc26da728396e66d392d5dcb8dac30c37 upstream.

In rare cases a directory can be renamed out from under a bind mount.
In those cases without special handling it becomes possible to walk up
the directory tree to the root dentry of the filesystem and down
from the root dentry to every other file or directory on the filesystem.

Like division by zero .. from an unconnected path can not be given
a useful semantic as there is no predicting at which path component
the code will realize it is unconnected.  We certainly can not match
the current behavior as the current behavior is a security hole.

Therefore when encounting .. when following an unconnected path
return -ENOENT.

- Add a function path_connected to verify path->dentry is reachable
  from path->mnt.mnt_root.  AKA to validate that rename did not do
  something nasty to the bind mount.

  To avoid races path_connected must be called after following a path
  component to it's next path component.

dcache: Handle escaped paths in prepend_path

2015-10-05T20:02:54+00:00

commit cde93be45a8a90d8c264c776fab63487b5038a65 upstream.

A rename can result in a dentry that by walking up d_parent
will never reach it's mnt_root.  For lack of a better term
I call this an escaped path.

prepend_path is called by four different functions __d_path,
d_absolute_path, d_path, and getcwd.

__d_path only wants to see paths are connected to the root it passes
in.  So __d_path needs prepend_path to return an error.

d_absolute_path similarly wants to see paths that are connected to
some root.  Escaped paths are not connected to any mnt_root so
d_absolute_path needs prepend_path to return an error greater
than 1.  So escaped paths will be treated like paths on lazily
unmounted mounts.

getcwd needs to prepend "(unreachable)" so getcwd also needs
prepend_path to return an error.

d_path is the interesting hold out.  d_path just wants to print
something, and does not care about the weird cases.  Which raises
the question what should be printed?

Given that / should result in -ENOENT I
believe it is desirable for escaped paths to be printed as empty
paths.  As there are not really any meaninful path components when
considered from the perspective of a mount tree.

So tweak prepend_path to return an empty path with an new error
code of 3 when it encounters an escaped path.

hfs,hfsplus: cache pages correctly between bnode_create and bnode_free

2015-09-30T11:47:37+00:00

commit 7cb74be6fd827e314f81df3c5889b87e4c87c569 upstream.

Pages looked up by __hfs_bnode_create() (called by hfs_bnode_create() and
hfs_bnode_find() for finding or creating pages corresponding to an inode)
are immediately kmap()'ed and used (both read and write) and kunmap()'ed,
and should not be page_cache_release()'ed until hfs_bnode_free().

This patch fixes a problem I first saw in July 2012: merely running "du"
on a large hfsplus-mounted directory a few times on a reasonably loaded
system would get the hfsplus driver all confused and complaining about
B-tree inconsistencies, and generates a "BUG: Bad page state".  Most
recently, I can generate this problem on up-to-date Fedora 22 with shipped
kernel 4.0.5, by running "du /" (="/" + "/home" + "/mnt" + other smaller
mounts) and "du /mnt" simultaneously on two windows, where /mnt is a
lightly-used QEMU VM image of the full Mac OS X 10.9:

$ df -i / /home /mnt
Filesystem                  Inodes   IUsed      IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/fedora-root    3276800  551665    2725135   17% /
/dev/mapper/fedora-home   52879360  716221   52163139    2% /home
/dev/nbd0p2             4294967295 1387818 4293579477    1% /mnt

After applying the patch, I was able to run "du /" (60+ times) and "du
/mnt" (150+ times) continuously and simultaneously for 6+ hours.

There are many reports of the hfsplus driver getting confused under load
and generating "BUG: Bad page state" or other similar issues over the
years.  [1]

The unpatched code [2] has always been wrong since it entered the kernel
tree.  The only reason why it gets away with it is that the
kmap/memcpy/kunmap follow very quickly after the page_cache_release() so
the kernel has not had a chance to reuse the memory for something else,
most of the time.

The current RW driver appears to have followed the design and development
of the earlier read-only hfsplus driver [3], where-by version 0.1 (Dec
2001) had a B-tree node-centric approach to
read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put(),
migrating towards version 0.2 (June 2002) of caching and releasing pages
per inode extents.  When the current RW code first entered the kernel [2]
in 2005, there was an REF_PAGES conditional (and "//" commented out code)
to switch between B-node centric paging to inode-centric paging.  There
was a mistake with the direction of one of the REF_PAGES conditionals in
__hfs_bnode_create().  In a subsequent "remove debug code" commit [4], the
read_cache_page()/page_cache_release() per bnode_get()/bnode_put() were
removed, but a page_cache_release() was mistakenly left in (propagating
the "REF_PAGES <-> !REF_PAGE" mistake), and the commented-out
page_cache_release() in bnode_release() (which should be spanned by
!REF_PAGES) was never enabled.

hfs: fix B-tree corruption after insertion at position 0

Fix B-tree corruption when a new record is inserted at position 0 in the
node in hfs_brec_insert().

This is an identical change to the corresponding hfs b-tree code to Sergei
Antonov's "hfsplus: fix B-tree corruption after insertion at position 0",
to keep similar code paths in the hfs and hfsplus drivers in sync, where
appropriate.

fs: if a coredump already exists, unlink and recreate with O_EXCL

2015-09-30T09:13:09+00:00

commit fbb1816942c04429e85dbf4c1a080accc534299e upstream.

It was possible for an attacking user to trick root (or another user) into
writing his coredumps into an attacker-readable, pre-existing file using
rename() or link(), causing the disclosure of secret data from the victim
process' virtual memory.  Depending on the configuration, it was also
possible to trick root into overwriting system files with coredumps.  Fix
that issue by never writing coredumps into existing files.

Requirements for the attack:
 - The attack only applies if the victim's process has a nonzero
   RLIMIT_CORE and is dumpable.
 - The attacker can trick the victim into coredumping into an
   attacker-writable directory D, either because the core_pattern is
   relative and the victim's cwd is attacker-writable or because an
   absolute core_pattern pointing to a world-writable directory is used.
 - The attacker has one of these:
  A: on a system with protected_hardlinks=0:
     execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned,
     attacker-readable file on the same partition as D, and the
     victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack
     takes place. (In practice, there are lots of files that fulfill
     this condition, e.g. entries in Debian's /var/lib/dpkg/info/.)
     This does not apply to most Linux systems because most distros set
     protected_hardlinks=1.
  B: on a system with protected_hardlinks=1:
     execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned,
     attacker-readable and attacker-writable file on the same partition
     as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part
     of the attack takes place.
     (This seems to be uncommon.)
  C: on any system, independent of protected_hardlinks:
     write access to a non-sticky folder containing a victim-owned,
     attacker-readable file on the same partition as D
     (This seems to be uncommon.)

The basic idea is that the attacker moves the victim-owned file to where
he expects the victim process to dump its core.  The victim process dumps
its core into the existing file, and the attacker reads the coredump from
it.

If the attacker can't move the file because he does not have write access
to the containing directory, he can instead link the file to a directory
he controls, then wait for the original link to the file to be deleted
(because the kernel checks that the link count of the corefile is 1).

A less reliable variant that requires D to be non-sticky works with link()
and does not require deletion of the original link: link() the file into
D, but then unlink() it directly before the kernel performs the link count
check.

On systems with protected_hardlinks=0, this variant allows an attacker to
not only gain information from coredumps, but also clobber existing,
victim-writable files with coredumps.  (This could theoretically lead to a
privilege escalation.)

NFS: nfs_set_pgio_error sometimes misses errors

commit e9ae58aeee8842a50f7e199d602a5ccb2e41a95f upstream.

We should ensure that we always set the pgio_header's error field
if a READ or WRITE RPC call returns an error. The current code depends
on 'hdr->good_bytes' always being initialised to a large value, which
is not always done correctly by callers.
When this happens, applications may end up missing important errors.

NFSv4: don't set SETATTR for O_RDONLY|O_EXCL

2015-09-30T09:13:08+00:00

commit efcbc04e16dfa95fef76309f89710dd1d99a5453 upstream.

It is unusual to combine the open flags O_RDONLY and O_EXCL, but
it appears that libre-office does just that.

[pid  3250] stat("/home/USER/.config", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=8192, ...}) = 0
[pid  3250] open("/home/USER/.config/libreoffice/4-suse/user/extensions/buildid", O_RDONLY|O_EXCL 

NFSv4 takes O_EXCL as a sign that a setattr command should be sent,
probably to reset the timestamps.

When it was an O_RDONLY open, the SETATTR command does not
identify any actual attributes to change.
If no delegation was provided to the open, the SETATTR uses the
all-zeros stateid and the request is accepted (at least by the
Linux NFS server - no harm, no foul).

If a read-delegation was provided, this is used in the SETATTR
request, and a Netapp filer will justifiably claim
NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID, which the Linux client takes as a sign
to retry - indefinitely.

So only treat O_EXCL specially if O_CREAT was also given.

Btrfs: check if previous transaction aborted to avoid fs corruption

2015-09-30T09:13:08+00:00

commit 1f9b8c8fbc9a4d029760b16f477b9d15500e3a34 upstream.

While we are committing a transaction, it's possible the previous one is
still finishing its commit and therefore we wait for it to finish first.
However we were not checking if that previous transaction ended up getting
aborted after we waited for it to commit, so we ended up committing the
current transaction which can lead to fs corruption because the new
superblock can point to trees that have had one or more nodes/leafs that
were never durably persisted.
The following sequence diagram exemplifies how this is possible:

          CPU 0                                                        CPU 1

  transaction N starts

  (...)

  btrfs_commit_transaction(N)

    cur_trans->state = TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START;
    (...)
    cur_trans->state = TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING;
    (...)

    cur_trans->state = TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED;
    root->fs_info->running_transaction = NULL;

                                                              btrfs_start_transaction()
                                                                 --> starts transaction N + 1

    btrfs_write_and_wait_transaction(trans, root);
      --> starts writing all new or COWed ebs created
          at transaction N

                                                              creates some new ebs, COWs some
                                                              existing ebs but doesn't COW or

                                                                wait_for_commit(root, prev_trans);
                                                                  --> prev_trans == transaction N

    btrfs_write_and_wait_transaction() continues

           and set bit BTRFS_FS_STATE_ERROR on

       cleanup_transaction()

                                                                  --> succeeds
                                                                  --> we have now a superblock that points us
                                                                      to some root that uses eb X, which was
                                                                      never written to disk

In this scenario future attempts to read eb X from disk results in an
error message like "parent transid verify failed on X wanted Y found Z".

So fix this by aborting the current transaction if after waiting for the
previous transaction we verify that it was aborted.
