Merge tag 'fs.setgid.v6.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull setgid updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to move setgid stripping out of individual
filesystems and into the VFS itself.
Creating files that have both the S_IXGRP and S_ISGID bit raised in
directories that themselves have the S_ISGID bit set requires
additional privileges to avoid security issues.
When a filesystem creates a new inode it needs to take care that the
caller is either in the group of the newly created inode or they have
CAP_FSETID in their current user namespace and are privileged over the
parent directory of the new inode. If any of these two conditions is
true then the S_ISGID bit can be raised for an S_IXGRP file and if not
it needs to be stripped.
However, there are several key issues with the current implementation:
- S_ISGID stripping logic is entangled with umask stripping.
For example, if the umask removes the S_IXGRP bit from the file
about to be created then the S_ISGID bit will be kept.
The inode_init_owner() helper is responsible for S_ISGID stripping
and is called before posix_acl_create(). So we can end up with two
different orderings:
1. FS without POSIX ACL support
First strip umask then strip S_ISGID in inode_init_owner().
In other words, if a filesystem doesn't support or enable POSIX
ACLs then umask stripping is done directly in the vfs before
calling into the filesystem:
2. FS with POSIX ACL support
First strip S_ISGID in inode_init_owner() then strip umask in
posix_acl_create().
In other words, if the filesystem does support POSIX ACLs then
unmask stripping may be done in the filesystem itself when
calling posix_acl_create().
Note that technically filesystems are free to impose their own
ordering between posix_acl_create() and inode_init_owner() meaning
that there's additional ordering issues that influence S_ISGID
inheritance.
(Note that the commit message of commit 1639a49ccd ("fs: move
S_ISGID stripping into the vfs_*() helpers") gets the ordering
between inode_init_owner() and posix_acl_create() the wrong way
around. I realized this too late.)
- Filesystems that don't rely on inode_init_owner() don't get S_ISGID
stripping logic.
While that may be intentional (e.g. network filesystems might just
defer setgid stripping to a server) it is often just a security
issue.
Note that mandating the use of inode_init_owner() was proposed as
an alternative solution but that wouldn't fix the ordering issues
and there are examples such as afs where the use of
inode_init_owner() isn't possible.
In any case, we should also try the cleaner and generalized
solution first before resorting to this approach.
- We still have S_ISGID inheritance bugs years after the initial
round of S_ISGID inheritance fixes:
e014f37db1 ("xfs: use setattr_copy to set vfs inode attributes")
01ea173e10 ("xfs: fix up non-directory creation in SGID directories")
fd84bfdddd ("ceph: fix up non-directory creation in SGID directories")
All of this led us to conclude that the current state is too messy.
While we won't be able to make it completely clean as
posix_acl_create() is still a filesystem specific call we can improve
the S_SIGD stripping situation quite a bit by hoisting it out of
inode_init_owner() and into the respective vfs creation operations.
The obvious advantage is that we don't need to rely on individual
filesystems getting S_ISGID stripping right and instead can
standardize the ordering between S_ISGID and umask stripping directly
in the VFS.
A few short implementation notes:
- The stripping logic needs to happen in vfs_*() helpers for the sake
of stacking filesystems such as overlayfs that rely on these
helpers taking care of S_ISGID stripping.
- Security hooks have never seen the mode as it is ultimately seen by
the filesystem because of the ordering issue we mentioned. Nothing
is changed for them. We simply continue to strip the umask before
passing the mode down to the security hooks.
- The following filesystems use inode_init_owner() and thus relied on
S_ISGID stripping: spufs, 9p, bfs, btrfs, ext2, ext4, f2fs,
hfsplus, hugetlbfs, jfs, minix, nilfs2, ntfs3, ocfs2, omfs,
overlayfs, ramfs, reiserfs, sysv, ubifs, udf, ufs, xfs, zonefs,
bpf, tmpfs.
We've audited all callchains as best as we could. More details can
be found in the commit message to 1639a49ccd ("fs: move S_ISGID
stripping into the vfs_*() helpers")"
