module: replace copy_module_from_fd with kernel version

2016-02-21T14:06:12+00:00

Replace copy_module_from_fd() with kernel_read_file_from_fd().

Although none of the upstreamed LSMs define a kernel_module_from_file
hook, IMA is called, based on policy, to prevent unsigned kernel modules
from being loaded by the original kernel module syscall and to
measure/appraise signed kernel modules.

The security function security_kernel_module_from_file() was called prior
to reading a kernel module.  Preventing unsigned kernel modules from being
loaded by the original kernel module syscall remains on the pre-read
kernel_read_file() security hook.  Instead of reading the kernel module
twice, once for measuring/appraising and again for loading the kernel
module, the signature validation is moved to the kernel_post_read_file()
security hook.

This patch removes the security_kernel_module_from_file() hook and security
call.

security: define kernel_read_file hook

2016-02-21T14:06:09+00:00

The kernel_read_file security hook is called prior to reading the file
into memory.

Changelog v4+:
- export security_kernel_read_file()

firmware: replace call to fw_read_file_contents() with kernel version

2016-02-21T14:03:44+00:00

Replace the fw_read_file_contents with kernel_file_read_from_path().

Although none of the upstreamed LSMs define a kernel_fw_from_file hook,
IMA is called by the security function to prevent unsigned firmware from
being loaded and to measure/appraise signed firmware, based on policy.

Instead of reading the firmware twice, once for measuring/appraising the
firmware and again for reading the firmware contents into memory, the
kernel_post_read_file() security hook calculates the file hash based on
the in memory file buffer.  The firmware is read once.

This patch removes the LSM kernel_fw_from_file() hook and security call.

Changelog v4+:
- revert dropped buf->size assignment - reported by Sergey Senozhatsky
v3:
- remove kernel_fw_from_file hook
- use kernel_file_read_from_path() - requested by Luis
v2:
- reordered and squashed firmware patches
- fix MAX firmware size (Kees Cook)

ima: define a new hook to measure and appraise a file already in memory

2016-02-21T03:35:08+00:00

This patch defines a new IMA hook ima_post_read_file() for measuring
and appraising files read by the kernel. The caller loads the file into
memory before calling this function, which calculates the hash followed by
the normal IMA policy based processing.

Changelog v5:
- fail ima_post_read_file() if either file or buf is NULL
v3:
- rename ima_hash_and_process_file() to ima_post_read_file()

v1:
- split patch

ima: pass 'opened' flag to identify newly created files

2014-09-09T14:28:43+00:00

Empty files and missing xattrs do not guarantee that a file was
just created.  This patch passes FILE_CREATED flag to IMA to
reliably identify new files.

ima: add support for measuring and appraising firmware

2014-07-25T18:47:46+00:00

The "security: introduce kernel_fw_from_file hook" patch defined a
new security hook to evaluate any loaded firmware that wasn't built
into the kernel.

This patch defines ima_fw_from_file(), which is called from the new
security hook, to measure and/or appraise the loaded firmware's
integrity.

ima: support new kernel module syscall

2012-12-14T02:35:26+00:00

With the addition of the new kernel module syscall, which defines two
arguments - a file descriptor to the kernel module and a pointer to a NULL
terminated string of module arguments - it is now possible to measure and
appraise kernel modules like any other file on the file system.

This patch adds support to measure and appraise kernel modules in an
extensible and consistent manner.

To support filesystems without extended attribute support, additional
patches could pass the signature as the first parameter.

ima: add ima_inode_setxattr/removexattr function and calls

2012-09-07T18:57:47+00:00

Based on xattr_permission comments, the restriction to modify 'security'
xattr is left up to the underlying fs or lsm. Ensure that not just anyone
can modify or remove 'security.ima'.

Changelog v1:
- Unless IMA-APPRAISE is configured, use stub ima_inode_removexattr()/setxattr()
  functions.  (Moved ima_inode_removexattr()/setxattr() to ima_appraise.c)

Changelog:
  - take i_mutex to fix locking (Dmitry Kasatkin)
  - ima_reset_appraise_flags should only be called when modifying or
    removing the 'security.ima' xattr. Requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN privilege.
    (Incorporated fix from Roberto Sassu)
  - Even if allowed to update security.ima, reset the appraisal flags,
    forcing re-appraisal.
  - Replace CAP_MAC_ADMIN with CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  - static inline ima_inode_setxattr()/ima_inode_removexattr() stubs
  - ima_protect_xattr should be static

ima: add inode_post_setattr call

2012-09-07T18:57:46+00:00

Changing an inode's metadata may result in our not needing to appraise
the file.  In such cases, we must remove 'security.ima'.

Changelog v1:
- use ima_inode_post_setattr() stub function, if IMA_APPRAISE not configured
