Commit c7423dbdbc9e ("ima: Handle -ESTALE returned by
ima_filter_rule_match()") introduced call to ima_lsm_copy_rule within a
RCU read-side critical section which contains kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL.
This implies a possible sleep and violates limitations of RCU read-side
critical sections on non-PREEMPT systems.

Sleeping within RCU read-side critical section might cause
synchronize_rcu() returning early and break RCU protection, allowing a
UAF to happen.

The root cause of this issue could be described as follows:
|	Thread A	|	Thread B	|
|			|ima_match_policy	|
|			|  rcu_read_lock	|
|ima_lsm_update_rule	|			|
|  synchronize_rcu	|			|
|			|    kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)|
|			|      sleep		|
==&gt; synchronize_rcu returns early
|  kfree(entry)		|			|
|			|    entry = entry-&gt;next|
==&gt; UAF happens and entry now becomes NULL (or could be anything).
|			|    entry-&gt;action	|
==&gt; Accessing entry might cause panic.

To fix this issue, we are converting all kmalloc that is called within
RCU read-side critical section to use GFP_ATOMIC.

<title>ima: add crypto agility support for template-hash algorithm</title>
<updated>2024-04-12T13:59:04+00:00</updated>

<id>9fa8e76250082a45d0d3dad525419ab98bd01658</id>
<content type='text'>
The template hash showed by the ascii_runtime_measurements and
binary_runtime_measurements is the one calculated using sha1 and there is
no possibility to change this value, despite the fact that the template
hash is calculated using the hash algorithms corresponding to all the PCR
banks configured in the TPM.

Add the support to retrieve the ima log with the template data hash
calculated with a specific hash algorithm.
Add a new file in the securityfs ima directory for each hash algo
configured in a PCR bank of the TPM. Each new file has the name with
the following structure:

        {binary, ascii}_runtime_measurements_&lt;hash_algo_name&gt;

Legacy files are kept, to avoid breaking existing applications, but as
symbolic links which point to {binary, ascii}_runtime_measurements_sha1
files. These two files are created even if a TPM chip is not detected or
the sha1 bank is not configured in the TPM.

As example, in the case a TPM chip is present and sha256 is the only
configured PCR bank, the listing of the securityfs ima directory is the
following:

lr--r--r-- [...] ascii_runtime_measurements -&gt; ascii_runtime_measurements_sha1
-r--r----- [...] ascii_runtime_measurements_sha1
-r--r----- [...] ascii_runtime_measurements_sha256
lr--r--r-- [...] binary_runtime_measurements -&gt; binary_runtime_measurements_sha1
-r--r----- [...] binary_runtime_measurements_sha1
-r--r----- [...] binary_runtime_measurements_sha256
--w------- [...] policy
-r--r----- [...] runtime_measurements_count
-r--r----- [...] violations

<title>evm: Enforce signatures on unsupported filesystem for EVM_INIT_X509</title>

<id>47add87ad181473e5ef2438918669540ba5016a6</id>
<content type='text'>
Unsupported filesystems currently do not enforce any signatures. Add
support for signature enforcement of the "original" and "portable &amp;
immutable" signatures when EVM_INIT_X509 is enabled.

The "original" signature type contains filesystem specific metadata.
Thus it cannot be copied up and verified. However with EVM_INIT_X509
and EVM_ALLOW_METADATA_WRITES enabled, the "original" file signature
may be written.

When EVM_ALLOW_METADATA_WRITES is not set or once it is removed from
/sys/kernel/security/evm by setting EVM_INIT_HMAC for example, it is not
possible to write or remove xattrs on the overlay filesystem.

This change still prevents EVM from writing HMAC signatures on
unsupported filesystem when EVM_INIT_HMAC is enabled.

On stacked filesystem the metadata inode may be different than the one
file data inode and therefore changes to it need to be detected
independently. Therefore, store the i_version, device number, and inode
number associated with the file metadata inode.

Implement a function to detect changes to the inode and if a change is
detected reset the evm_status. This function will be called by IMA when
IMA detects that the metadata inode is different from the file's inode.

Move all the variables used for file change detection into a structure
that can be used by IMA and EVM. Implement an inline function for storing
the identification of an inode and one for detecting changes to an inode
based on this new structure.

<title>evm: Use the metadata inode to calculate metadata hash</title>

Changes to file attributes (mode bits, uid, gid) on the lower layer are
not taken into account when d_backing_inode() is used when a file is
accessed on the overlay layer and this file has not yet been copied up.
This is because d_backing_inode() does not return the real inode of the
lower layer but instead returns the backing inode which in this case
holds wrong file attributes. Further, when CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_METACOPY is
enabled and a copy-up is triggered due to file metadata changes, then
the metadata are held by the backing inode while the data are still held
by the real inode. Therefore, use d_inode(d_real(dentry, D_REAL_METADATA))
to get to the file's metadata inode and use it to calculate the metadata
hash with.

To support "portable and immutable signatures" on otherwise unsupported
filesystems, determine the EVM signature type by the content of a file's
xattr. If the file has the appropriate signature type then allow it to be
copied up. All other signature types are discarded as before.

"Portable and immutable" EVM signatures can be copied up by stacked file-
system since the metadata their signature covers does not include file-
system-specific data such as a file's inode number, generation, and UUID.
