Subject: [RFC PATCH] fanotify, inotify, dnotify, security: add security hook for fs notifications
Date:   Wed, 10 Jul 2019 09:34:03 -0400
Message-Id: <20190710133403.855-1-acgoide@tycho.nsa.gov>

As of now, setting watches on filesystem objects has, at most, applied a
check for read access to the inode, and in the case of fanotify, requires
CAP_SYS_ADMIN. No specific security hook or permission check has been
provided to control the setting of watches. Using any of inotify, dnotify,
or fanotify, it is possible to observe, not only write-like operations, but
even read access to a file. Modeling the watch as being merely a read from
the file is insufficient. Furthermore, fanotify watches grant more power to
an application in the form of permission events. While notification events
are solely, unidirectional (i.e. they only pass information to the
receiving application), permission events are blocking. Permission events
make a request to the receiving application which will then reply with a
decision as to whether or not that action may be completed.

In order to solve these issues, a new LSM hook is implemented and has been
placed within the system calls for marking filesystem objects with inotify,
fanotify, and dnotify watches. These calls to the hook are placed at the
point at which the target inode has been resolved and are provided with
both the inode and the mask of requested notification events. The mask has
already been translated into common FS_* values shared by the entirety of
the fs notification infrastructure.

This only provides a hook at the point of setting a watch, and presumes
that permission to set a particular watch implies the ability to receive
all notification about that object which match the mask. This is all that
is required for SELinux. If other security modules require additional hooks
or infrastructure to control delivery of notification, these can be added
by them. It does not make sense for us to propose hooks for which we have
no implementation. The understanding that all notifications received by the
requesting application are all strictly of a type for which the application
has been granted permission shows that this implementation is sufficient in
its coverage.

Fanotify further has the issue that it returns a file descriptor with the
file mode specified during fanotify_init() to the watching process on
event. This is already covered by the LSM security_file_open hook if the
security module implements checking of the requested file mode there.

The selinux_inode_notify hook implementation works by adding three new
file permissions: watch, watch_reads, and watch_with_perm (descriptions
about which will follow). The hook then decides which subset of these
permissions must be held by the requesting application based on the
contents of the provided mask. The selinux_file_open hook already checks
the requested file mode and therefore ensures that a watching process
cannot escalate its access through fanotify.

The watch permission is the baseline permission for setting a watch on an
object and is a requirement for any watch to be set whatsoever. It should
be noted that having either of the other two permissions (watch_reads and
watch_with_perm) does not imply the watch permission, though this could be
changed if need be.

The watch_reads permission is required to receive notifications from
read-exclusive events on filesystem objects. These events include accessing
a file for the purpose of reading and closing a file which has been opened
read-only. This distinction has been drawn in order to provide a direct
indication in the policy for this otherwise not obvious capability. Read
access to a file should not necessarily imply the ability to observe read
events on a file.

Finally, watch_with_perm only applies to fanotify masks since it is the
only way to set a mask which allows for the blocking, permission event.
This permission is needed for any watch which is of this type. Though
fanotify requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN, this is insufficient as it gives implicit
trust to root, which we do not do, and does not support least privilege.
