[PATCH 0/4] Allow customizable random offset to mmap_base address.

[PATCH 0/4] Allow customizable random offset to mmap_base address.

[Daniel Cashman]

From: dcashman <dcashman@google.com>

Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) provides a barrier to exploitation of user-space processes in the presence of security vulnerabilities by making it more difficult to find desired code/data which could help an attack. This is done by adding a random offset to the location of regions in the process address space, with a greater range of potential offset values corresponding to better protection/a larger search-space for brute force, but also to greater potential for fragmentation.

The offset added to the mmap_base address, which provides the basis for the majority of the mappings for a process, is set once on process exec in arch_pick_mmap_layout() and is done via hard-coded per-arch values, which reflect, hopefully, the best compromise for all systems. The trade-off between increased entropy in the offset value generation and the corresponding increased variability in address space fragmentation is not absolute, however, and some platforms may tolerate higher amounts of entropy. This patch introduces both new Kconfig values and a sysctl interface which may be used to change the amount of entropy used for offset generation on a system.

The direct motivation for this change was in response to the libstagefright vulnerabilities that affected Android, specifically to information provided by Google's project zero at:

http://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2015/09/stagefrightened.html

The attack presented therein, by Google's project zero, specifically targeted the limited randomness used to generate the offset added to the mmap_base address in order to craft a brute-force-based attack. Concretely, the attack was against the mediaserver process, which was limited to respawning every 5 seconds, on an arm device. The hard-coded 8 bits used resulted in an average expected success rate of defeating the mmap ASLR after just over 10 minutes (128 tries at 5 seconds a piece). With this patch, and an accompanying increase in the entropy value to 16 bits, the same attack would take an average expected time of over 45 hours (32768 tries), which makes it both less feasible and more likely to be noticed.

The introduced Kconfig and sysctl options are limited by per-arch minimum and maximum values, the minimum of which was chosen to match the current hard-coded value and the maximum of which was chosen so as to give the greatest flexibility without generating an invalid mmap_base address, generally a 3-4 bits less than the number of bits in the user-space accessible virtual address space.

When decided whether or not to change the default value, a system developer should consider that mmap_base address could be placed anywhere up to 2^(value) bits away from the non-randomized location, which would introduce variable-sized areas above and below the mmap_base address such that the maximum vm_area_struct size may be reduced, preventing very large allocations.

Changes in v3:
* moved sysctl from /proc/sys/kernel to /proc/sys/vm
* added to arch/x86 (both 32 and 64 bit)
* added to arch/arm64
* added ability for arch to specify default value in between max - min

[PATCH 1/4] mm: mmap: Add new /proc tunable for mmap_base ASLR.

[Daniel Cashman]

From: dcashman <dcashman@google.com>

ASLR currently only uses 8 bits to generate the random offset for the
mmap base address on 32 bit architectures. This value was chosen to
prevent a poorly chosen value from dividing the address space in such
a way as to prevent large allocations. This may not be an issue on all
platforms. Allow the specification of a minimum number of bits so that
platforms desiring greater ASLR protection may determine where to place
the trade-off.

[PATCH 1/4] mm: mmap: Add new /proc tunable for mmap_base ASLR.

[Daniel Cashman]

From: dcashman <dcashman@google.com>

ASLR currently only uses 8 bits to generate the random offset for the
mmap base address on 32 bit architectures. This value was chosen to
prevent a poorly chosen value from dividing the address space in such
a way as to prevent large allocations. This may not be an issue on all
platforms. Allow the specification of a minimum number of bits so that
platforms desiring greater ASLR protection may determine where to place
the trade-off.

[PATCH 2/4] arm: mm: support ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS.

[Daniel Cashman]

From: dcashman <dcashman@google.com>

arm: arch_mmap_rnd() uses a hard-code value of 8 to generate the
random offset for the mmap base address.  This value represents a
compromise between increased ASLR effectiveness and avoiding
address-space fragmentation. Replace it with a Kconfig option, which
is sensibly bounded, so that platform developers may choose where to
place this compromise. Keep 8 as the minimum acceptable value.

compromise between increased ASLR effectiveness and avoiding
address-space fragmentation. Replace it with a Kconfig option, which
is sensibly bounded, so that platform developers may choose where to
place this compromise. Keep default values as new minimums.

[PATCH 3/4] arm64: mm: support ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS.

[Daniel Cashman]

From: dcashman <dcashman@google.com>

arm64: arch_mmap_rnd() uses STACK_RND_MASK to generate the
random offset for the mmap base address.  This value represents a
compromise between increased ASLR effectiveness and avoiding
address-space fragmentation. Replace it with a Kconfig option, which
is sensibly bounded, so that platform developers may choose where to
place this compromise. Keep default values as new minimums.

[PATCH 4/4] x86: mm: support ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS.

[Daniel Cashman]

From: dcashman <dcashman@google.com>

x86: arch_mmap_rnd() uses hard-coded values, 8 for 32-bit and 28 for
64-bit, to generate the random offset for the mmap base address.
This value represents a compromise between increased ASLR
effectiveness and avoiding address-space fragmentation. Replace it
with a Kconfig option, which is sensibly bounded, so that platform
developers may choose where to place this compromise. Keep default
values as new minimums.

Oh, that is a weird side-effect of x86's compat: a 32-bit build isn't
compat, so it needs the native bits. I'm trying to resist bikeshedding
the names again, so probably this should stay as-is.

Oh, that is a weird side-effect of x86's compat: a 32-bit build isn't
compat, so it needs the native bits. I'm trying to resist bikeshedding
the names again, so probably this should stay as-is.

I think the min/max values should be const, since they're determined
at build time and should never change.

I think the min/max values should be const, since they're determined
at build time and should never change.

Here and several places below also need the swap from

I think the min/max values should be const, since they're determined
at build time and should never change.

Ok. Also, I just submitted the patch-set again with [PATCH v3] instead
of [PATCH] so I'd prefer discussion there; sorry for the mistake.
