Subject: [PATCH v5 0/6] mm/memfd: introduce MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL and MFD_EXEC

From: Jeff Xu <[email protected]>

Since Linux introduced the memfd feature, memfd have always had their execute bit set, and the memfd_create() syscall doesn't allow setting it differently.

However, in a secure by default system, such as ChromeOS, (where all executables should come from the rootfs, which is protected by Verified boot), this executable nature of memfd opens a door for NoExec bypass and enables “confused deputy attack”. E.g, in VRP bug [1]: cros_vm process created a memfd to share the content with an external process, however the memfd is overwritten and used for executing arbitrary code and root escalation. [2] lists more VRP in this kind.

On the other hand, executable memfd has its legit use, runc uses memfd’s seal and executable feature to copy the contents of the binary then execute them, for such system, we need a solution to differentiate runc's use of executable memfds and an attacker's [3].

To address those above, this set of patches add following:
1> Let memfd_create() set X bit at creation time.
2> Let memfd to be sealed for modifying X bit.
3> A new pid namespace sysctl: vm.memfd_noexec to control behavior of X bit. For example, if a container has vm.memfd_noexec=2, then memfd_create() without MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL will be rejected.
4> A new security hook in memfd_create(). This make it possible to a new LSM, which rejects or allows executable memfd based on its security policy.

This is V4 version of patch: see [4] [5] [6] for previous versions.

Subject: [PATCH v5 3/6] mm/memfd: add MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL and MFD_EXEC

From: Jeff Xu <[email protected]>

The new MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL and MFD_EXEC flags allows application to
set executable bit at creation time (memfd_create).

When MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL is set, memfd is created without executable bit
(mode:0666), and sealed with F_SEAL_EXEC, so it can't be chmod to
be executable (mode: 0777) after creation.

when MFD_EXEC flag is set, memfd is created with executable bit
(mode:0777), this is the same as the old behavior of memfd_create.

The new pid namespaced sysctl vm.memfd_noexec has 3 values:
0: memfd_create() without MFD_EXEC nor MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL acts like
MFD_EXEC was set.
1: memfd_create() without MFD_EXEC nor MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL acts like
MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL was set.
2: memfd_create() without MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL will be rejected.

The sysctl allows finer control of memfd_create for old-software
that doesn't set the executable bit, for example, a container with
vm.memfd_noexec=1 means the old-software will create non-executable
memfd by default.

Subject: [PATCH v5 1/6] mm/memfd: add F_SEAL_EXEC

From: Daniel Verkamp <[email protected]>

The new F_SEAL_EXEC flag will prevent modification of the exec bits:
written as traditional octal mask, 0111, or as named flags, S_IXUSR |
S_IXGRP | S_IXOTH. Any chmod(2) or similar call that attempts to modify
any of these bits after the seal is applied will fail with errno EPERM.

This will preserve the execute bits as they are at the time of sealing,
so the memfd will become either permanently executable or permanently
un-executable.

Subject: [PATCH v5 6/6] mm/memfd: security hook for memfd_create

From: Jeff Xu <[email protected]>

The new security_memfd_create allows lsm to check flags of
memfd_create.

The security by default system (such as chromeos) can use this
to implement system wide lsm to allow only non-executable memfd
being created.

Subject: [PATCH v5 4/6] mm/memfd: Add write seals when apply SEAL_EXEC to executable memfd

From: Jeff Xu <[email protected]>

In order to avoid WX mappings, add F_SEAL_WRITE when apply
F_SEAL_EXEC to an executable memfd, so W^X from start.

This implys application need to fill the content of the memfd first,
after F_SEAL_EXEC is applied, application can no longer modify the
content of the memfd.

Typically, application seals the memfd right after writing to it.
For example:
1. memfd_create(MFD_EXEC).
2. write() code to the memfd.
3. fcntl(F_ADD_SEALS, F_SEAL_EXEC) to convert the memfd to W^X.
4. call exec() on the memfd.

Thanks for reviewing.
It seems to me that checking for CONFIG_XXX is common in c code in
kernel/ path.
Do you have a sample code pattern (link/function) that I can follow?

.c files should never have #if in them. Can't you put this in a .h file
properly so that this does not get really messy over time?

Maybe, but please don't make it any worse if at all possible. It's
tough to maintain code like that.

Always use checkpatch.pl on your patches so you don't get grumpy

I will take the approach of having real/stub implementation in the h
file, and the c file using it without a compile flag.
Please kindly let me know if this is not right.

Right; for example:

in .h:

#if defined(CONFIG_SYSCTL) && defined(CONFIG_MEMFD_CREATE)
static inline void ns_copy_memfd_scope(... dst, ... src) {
dst->memfd_noexec_scope = src->memfd_noexec_scope;
}
#else
static inline void ns_set_memfd_scope(... ns, ... scope) { }
#endif


in .c:

ns_copy_memfd_scope(ns, task_active_pid_ns(current));
