2012-02-02cgroup: remove cgroup_subsys argument from callbacksLi Zefan1-6/+4
The argument is not used at all, and it's not necessary, because a specific callback handler of course knows which subsys it belongs to. Now only ->pupulate() takes this argument, because the handlers of this callback always call cgroup_add_file()/cgroup_add_files(). So we reduce a few lines of code, though the shrinking of object size is minimal. 16 files changed, 113 insertions(+), 162 deletions(-) text data bss dec hex filename 5486240 656987 7039960 13183187 c928d3 vmlinux.o.orig 5486170 656987 7039960 13183117 c9288d vmlinux.o Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

2012-01-17keys: add a "logon" key typeJeff Layton3-0/+39
For CIFS, we want to be able to store NTLM credentials (aka username and password) in the keyring. We do not, however want to allow users to fetch those keys back out of the keyring since that would be a security risk. Unfortunately, due to the nuances of key permission bits, it's not possible to do this. We need to grant search permissions so the kernel can find these keys, but that also implies permissions to read the payload. Resolve this by adding a new key_type. This key type is essentially the same as key_type_user, but does not define a .read op. This prevents the payload from ever being visible from userspace. This key type also vets the description to ensure that it's "qualified" by checking to ensure that it has a ':' in it that is preceded by other characters.

2012-01-18KEYS: Add missing smp_rmb() primitives to the keyring search codeDavid Howells2-8/+18
Add missing smp_rmb() primitives to the keyring search code. When keyring payloads are appended to without replacement (thus using up spare slots in the key pointer array), an smp_wmb() is issued between the pointer assignment and the increment of the key count (nkeys). There should be corresponding read barriers between the read of nkeys and dereferences of keys[n] when n is dependent on the value of nkeys.

2012-01-10securityfs: fix object creation racesAl Viro1-141/+50
inode needs to be fully set up before we feed it to d_instantiate(). securityfs_create_file() does *not* do so; it sets ->i_fop and ->i_private only after we'd exposed the inode. Unfortunately, that's done fairly deep in call chain, so the amount of churn is considerable. Helper functions killed by substituting into their solitary call sites, dead code removed. We finally can bury default_file_ops, now that the final value of ->i_fop is available (and assigned) at the point where inode is allocated.

2012-01-05security: remove the security_netlink_recv hook as it is equivalent to capable()Eric Paris4-34/+0
Once upon a time netlink was not sync and we had to get the effective capabilities from the skb that was being received. Today we instead get the capabilities from the current task. This has rendered the entire purpose of the hook moot as it is now functionally equivalent to the capable() call. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2012-01-05ptrace: do not audit capability check when outputing /proc/pid/statEric Paris1-1/+1
Reading /proc/pid/stat of another process checks if one has ptrace permissions on that process. If one does have permissions it outputs some data about the process which might have security and attack implications. If the current task does not have ptrace permissions the read still works, but those fields are filled with inocuous (0) values. Since this check and a subsequent denial is not a violation of the security policy we should not audit such denials. This can be quite useful to removing ptrace broadly across a system without flooding the logs when ps is run or something which harmlessly walks proc.

2012-01-05capabilities: introduce security_capable_noauditEric Paris1-0/+6
Exactly like security_capable except don't audit any denials. This is for places where the kernel may make decisions about what to do if a task has a given capability, but which failing that capability is not a sign of a security policy violation. An example is checking if a task has CAP_SYS_ADMIN to lower it's likelyhood of being killed by the oom killer. This check is not a security violation if it is denied.

2012-01-05capabilities: reverse arguments to security_capableEric Paris1-1/+1
security_capable takes ns, cred, cap. But the LSM capable() hook takes cred, ns, cap. The capability helper functions also take cred, ns, cap. Rather than flip argument order just to flip it back, leave them alone. Heck, this should be a little faster since argument will be in the right place! Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2012-01-05capabilities: remove the task from capable LSM hook entirelyEric Paris4-30/+24
The capabilities framework is based around credentials, not necessarily the current task. Yet we still passed the current task down into LSMs from the security_capable() LSM hook as if it was a meaningful portion of the security decision. This patch removes the 'generic' passing of current and instead forces individual LSMs to use current explicitly if they think it is appropriate. In our case those LSMs are SELinux and AppArmor. I believe the AppArmor use of current is incorrect, but that is wholely unrelated to this patch. This patch does not change what AppArmor does, it just makes it clear in the AppArmor code that it is doing it. The SELinux code still uses current in it's audit message, which may also be wrong and needs further investigation. Again this is NOT a change, it may have always been wrong, this patch just makes it clear what is happening. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
