In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<\/p>\n
selinux: recheck intermediate backing files on mprotect()<\/p>\n
mprotect() can be used to bypass the SELinux checks that mmap() performs
\nagainst the intermediate layers of a stacked filesystem.<\/p>\n
mmap() checks every backing layer as the request descends through the
\nstack. mprotect() only has the lowest backing file in vma->vm_file, so it
\nrechecks the top-level user and the lowest mounter, but skips the mounters
\nof every layer in between. With two nested overlayfs mounts and a policy
\ndenying mounter_t -> middle_file_t:file { execute }, a direct
\nmmap(PROT_EXEC) is denied:<\/p>\n
avc: denied { execute } for pid=71 comm=”nested_exec”
\n path=”\/payload” dev=”overlay” ino=9
\n scontext=user_u:base_r:mounter_t
\n tcontext=user_u:object_r:middle_file_t tclass=file permissive=0<\/p>\n
while mmap(PROT_NONE) followed by mprotect(PROT_EXEC) succeeds.<\/p>\n
Preserve each intermediate path, mounter SID and file-description SID in
\nthe backing-file security blob, copying the saved entries when another
\nbacking layer is opened. Allocate the array only for nested backing files,
\nand release it and the path references in the backing_file_free hook.<\/p>\n
During mprotect(), recheck fd { use } and the requested inode permissions
\nfor every saved mounter, and include the intermediate layers in the execmod
\nchecks. Policy for nested stacking may then need to grant intermediate
\nmounters what a direct mmap() already requires, and execmod on intermediate
\nlabels for binaries using text relocations.<\/p>\n
Tested on arm64 QEMU with a small BusyBox initramfs and a purpose-built
\nSELinux policy, on a mainline tree containing
\ncommit f2381b546e7e (“fs: fix user path of nested backing files”).<\/p>\n
