<content type='text'>
A common exploit pattern for ROP attacks is to abuse prepare_kernel_cred()
in order to construct escalated privileges[1]. Instead of providing a
short-hand argument (NULL) to the "daemon" argument to indicate using
init_cred as the base cred, require that "daemon" is always set to
an actual task. Replace all existing callers that were passing NULL
with &amp;init_task.

Future attacks will need to have sufficiently powerful read/write
primitives to have found an appropriately privileged task and written it
to the ROP stack as an argument to succeed, which is similarly difficult
to the prior effort needed to escalate privileges before struct cred
existed: locate the current cred and overwrite the uid member.

This has the added benefit of meaning that prepare_kernel_cred() can no
longer exceed the privileges of the init task, which may have changed from
the original init_cred (e.g. dropping capabilities from the bounding set).

I looked at cred-&gt;ucount and it is only used for rlimit operations
that were previously stored in cred-&gt;user.  Making the fact
cred-&gt;ucount can refer to a different user from cred-&gt;user a bug,
affecting all uses of cred-&gt;ulimit not just RLIMIT_NPROC.

Fix set_cred_ucounts to always use the real uid not the effective uid.

Further simplify set_cred_ucounts by noticing that set_cred_ucounts
somehow retained a draft version of the check to see if alloc_ucounts
was needed that checks the new-&gt;user and new-&gt;user_ns against the
current_real_cred().  Remove that draft version of the check.

All that matters for setting the cred-&gt;ucounts are the user_ns and uid
fields in the cred.

Any cred that is destined for use by commit_creds must have a non-NULL
cred-&gt;ucounts field.  Only curing credential construction is a NULL
cred-&gt;ucounts valid.  Only abort_creds, put_cred, and put_cred_rcu
needs to deal with a cred with a NULL ucount.  As set_cred_ucounts is
non of those case don't confuse people by handling something that can
not happen.

<title>ucounts: Move get_ucounts from cred_alloc_blank to key_change_session_keyring</title>

Setting cred-&gt;ucounts in cred_alloc_blank does not make sense.  The
uid and user_ns are deliberately not set in cred_alloc_blank but
instead the setting is delayed until key_change_session_keyring.

So move dealing with ucounts into key_change_session_keyring as well.

Unfortunately that movement of get_ucounts adds a new failure mode to
key_change_session_keyring.  I do not see anything stopping the parent
process from calling setuid and changing the relevant part of it's
cred while keyctl_session_to_parent is running making it fundamentally
necessary to call get_ucounts in key_change_session_keyring.  Which
means that the new failure mode cannot be avoided.

A failure of key_change_session_keyring results in a single threaded
parent keeping it's existing credentials.  Which results in the parent
process not being able to access the session keyring and whichever
keys are in the new keyring.

Further get_ucounts is only expected to fail if the number of bits in
the refernece count for the structure is too few.

Since the code has no other way to report the failure of get_ucounts
and because such failures are not expected to be common add a WARN_ONCE
to report this problem to userspace.

Between the WARN_ONCE and the parent process not having access to
the keys in the new session keyring I expect any failure of get_ucounts
will be noticed and reported and we can find another way to handle this
condition.  (Possibly by just making ucounts-&gt;count an atomic_long_t).

The purpose of inc_rlimit_ucounts and dec_rlimit_ucounts in commit_creds
is to change which rlimit counter is used to track a process when the
credentials changes.

Use the same test for both to guarantee the tracking is correct.

The purpose of inc_rlimit_ucounts and dec_rlimit_ucounts in commit_creds
is to change which rlimit counter is used to track a process when the
credentials changes.

Use the same test for both to guarantee the tracking is correct.

We need to increment the ucounts reference counter befor security_prepare_creds()
because this function may fail and abort_creds() will try to decrement
this reference.

Pull user namespace rlimit handling update from Eric Biederman:
 "This is the work mainly by Alexey Gladkov to limit rlimits to the
  rlimits of the user that created a user namespace, and to allow users
  to have stricter limits on the resources created within a user
  namespace."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
  cred: add missing return error code when set_cred_ucounts() failed
  ucounts: Silence warning in dec_rlimit_ucounts
  ucounts: Set ucount_max to the largest positive value the type can hold
  kselftests: Add test to check for rlimit changes in different user namespaces
  Reimplement RLIMIT_MEMLOCK on top of ucounts
  Reimplement RLIMIT_SIGPENDING on top of ucounts
  Reimplement RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE on top of ucounts
  Reimplement RLIMIT_NPROC on top of ucounts
  Use atomic_t for ucounts reference counting
  Add a reference to ucounts for each cred
  Increase size of ucounts to atomic_long_t
