From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: matt@nmatt.com (Matt Brown) Date: Sun, 23 Apr 2017 03:24:56 -0400 Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] tiocsti-restrict : Add owner user namespace to tty_struct Message-ID: <20170423072457.27120-1-matt@nmatt.com> To: linux-security-module@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-security-module.vger.kernel.org This patch adds struct user_namespace *owner_user_ns to the tty_struct. Then it is set to current_user_ns() in the alloc_tty_struct function. This is done to facilitate capability checks against the original user namespace that allocated the tty. E.g. ns_capable(tty->owner_user_ns,CAP_SYS_ADMIN) This combined with the use of user namespace's will allow hardening protections to be built to mitigate container escapes that utilize TTY ioctls such as TIOCSTI.
