[uml-devel] [PATCH 02/11] uml - hostfs: fix double free

[Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso]

From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Fix double free in the error path - when name is assigned into root_inode we do
not own it any more and we must not kfree() it - see patch for details.

Thanks to William Stearns for the initial report.

[uml-devel] [PATCH 03/11] uml - hostfs: make hostfs= option work as a jail, as intended.

[Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso]

From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

When a given host directory is specified to be mounted both in hostfs=path1 and
with mount option -o path2, we should give access to path1/path2, but this does
not happen. Fix that in the simpler way.

Also, root_ino can be the empty string, since we use %s/%s as format.

[uml-devel] [PATCH 04/11] uml - hostfs: avoid possible escapes from hostfs=.

[Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso]

From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Avoid accepting things like -o .., -o dir/../../dir2, -o dir/../.. .
This may be considered useless, but YMMV. I consider that this has a limited
security value, exactly like disabling module support (in many case it is
useful).

Two comments on this one:

> +		strcmp(path, "..") == 0 ||
> +		strncmp(path, "../", strlen("../")) == 0 ||
> +		str_ends_with(path, "/..");

Minor style point - I'd be happier with more parens:

+	return  (strstr(path, "/../") != NULL) ||
+		(strcmp(path, "..") == 0) ||
+		(strncmp(path, "../", strlen("../")) == 0) ||
+		str_ends_with(path, "/..");

C gets operator precedence wrong in one or two cases, so I just put parens
any place it might matter.

Second, there is code in externfs which does the same thing without
parsing paths which you might consider instead.  It sees whether the
requested directory is outside the jail by cd-ing to it and then
repeatedly cd .. until it either reaches / or the jail root.

A copy is below for your reading pleasure.

Hmm. Personally I prefer the earlier style, but I haven't the last word on 
this.

> C gets operator precedence wrong in one or two cases, so I just put parens
> any place it might matter.

Indeed. For instance this patch is wrong, I did this once in a patch, and I 
saw it another time in current Ubuntu kernels:

-	a + b / 4
+	a + b >> 2

This is instead needed:

+	a + (b >> 2)

I must, indeed - your comment points out the symlink issue, which I didn't 
think of, and which makes my patch moot.

I gave a look, and it's nice. Except that maybe "escapes_jail" would be a 
clearer name (there's confusion about the subject of "escaping").

Also, what about concurrent UML threads caring about current directory? I know 
that without SMP/preemption we can't have this problem, but when I see this I 
count a future bug unless this is checked (I think I reason mathematically 
about correctness, even if not formally).

And I haven't the time to check this - I think your version could be merged 
anyway, but I'm not sure.

[uml-devel] [PATCH 08/11] uml: mark both consoles as CON_ANYTIME

[Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso]

From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Since both UML consoles do not use percpu variables, they may be called when the
cpu is still offline, and they may be marked CON_ANYTIME (this is documented in
kernel/printk.c, grep for CON_ANYTIME to find mentions of this).

Works well in testing done with lock debug enabled, should be safe but is
not needed for next release.

This would probably help also stderr_console.c, but this is yet to test.

Avoid reusing userspace errno twice - it can be cleared by libc code everywhere

ACK on all of these except for 1, which won't apply to current -mm,
and 4, which might need some more work.
