Merge tag 'cap-checkpoint-restore-v5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull checkpoint-restore updates from Christian Brauner: "This enables unprivileged checkpoint/restore of processes. Given that this work has been going on for quite some time the first sentence in this summary is hopefully more exciting than the actual final code changes required. Unprivileged checkpoint/restore has seen a frequent increase in interest over the last two years and has thus been one of the main topics for the combined containers & checkpoint/restore microconference since at least 2018 (cf. [1]). Here are just the three most frequent use-cases that were brought forward: - The JVM developers are integrating checkpoint/restore into a Java VM to significantly decrease the startup time. - In high-performance computing environment a resource manager will typically be distributing jobs where users are always running as non-root. Long-running and "large" processes with significant startup times are supposed to be checkpointed and restored with CRIU. - Container migration as a non-root user. In all of these scenarios it is either desirable or required to run without CAP_SYS_ADMIN. The userspace implementation of checkpoint/restore CRIU already has the pull request for supporting unprivileged checkpoint/restore up (cf. [2]). To enable unprivileged checkpoint/restore a new dedicated capability CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is introduced. This solution has last been discussed in 2019 in a talk by Google at Linux Plumbers (cf. [1] "Update on Task Migration at Google Using CRIU") with Adrian and Nicolas providing the implementation now over the last months. In essence, this allows the CRIU binary to be installed with the CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE vfs capability set thereby enabling unprivileged users to restore processes. To make this possible the following permissions are altered: - Selecting a specific PID via clone3() set_tid relaxed from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. - Selecting a specific PID via /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid relaxed from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. - Accessing /proc/pid/map_files relaxed from init userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to init userns CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. - Changing /proc/self/exe from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to userns CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. Of these four changes the /proc/self/exe change deserves a few words because the reasoning behind even restricting /proc/self/exe changes in the first place is just full of historical quirks and tracking this down was a questionable version of fun that I'd like to spare others. In short, it is trivial to change /proc/self/exe as an unprivileged user, i.e. without userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN right now. Either via ptrace() or by simply intercepting the elf loader in userspace during exec. Nicolas was nice enough to even provide a POC for the latter (cf. [3]) to illustrate this fact. The original patchset which introduced PR_SET_MM_MAP had no permissions around changing the exe link. They too argued that it is trivial to spoof the exe link already which is true. The argument brought up against this was that the Tomoyo LSM uses the exe link in tomoyo_manager() to detect whether the calling process is a policy manager. This caused changing the exe links to be guarded by userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN. All in all this rather seems like a "better guard it with something rather than nothing" argument which imho doesn't qualify as a great security policy. Again, because spoofing the exe link is possible for the calling process so even if this were security relevant it was broken back then and would be broken today. So technically, dropping all permissions around changing the exe link would probably be possible and would send a clearer message to any userspace that relies on /proc/self/exe for security reasons that they should stop doing this but for now we're only relaxing the exe link permissions from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to userns CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. There's a final uapi change in here. Changing the exe link used to accidently return EINVAL when the caller lacked the necessary permissions instead of the more correct EPERM. This pr contains a commit fixing this. I assume that userspace won't notice or care and if they do I will revert this commit. But since we are changing the permissions anyway it seems like a good opportunity to try this fix. With these changes merged unprivileged checkpoint/restore will be possible and has already been tested by various users" [1] LPC 2018 1.
