2011-11-09evm: digital signature verification supportDmitry Kasatkin
This patch adds support for digital signature verification to EVM. With this feature file metadata can be protected using digital signature instead of an HMAC. When building an image, which has to be flashed to different devices, an HMAC cannot be used to sign file metadata, because the HMAC key should be different on every device.

2011-11-09integrity: digital signature verification using multiple keyringsDmitry Kasatkin
Define separate keyrings for each of the different use cases - evm, ima, and modules. Using different keyrings improves search performance, and also allows "locking" specific keyring to prevent adding new keys. This is useful for evm and module keyrings, when keys are usually only added from initramfs. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Kasatkin <dmitry.kasatkin@intel.com>

2011-09-14evm: permit mode bits to be updatedMimi Zohar
Before permitting 'security.evm' to be updated, 'security.evm' must exist and be valid. In the case that there are no existing EVM protected xattrs, it is safe for posix acls to update the mode bits. To differentiate between no 'security.evm' xattr and no xattrs used to calculate 'security.evm', this patch defines INTEGRITY_NOXATTR. Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com>
2011-09-14evm: posix acls modify i_modeMimi Zohar
The posix xattr acls are 'system' prefixed, which normally would not affect security.evm. An interesting side affect of writing posix xattr acls is their modifying of the i_mode, which is included in security.evm. This patch updates security.evm when posix xattr acls are written.

2011-09-14evm: remove TCG_TPM dependencyMimi Zohar
All tristates selected by EVM(boolean) are forced to be builtin, except in the TCG_TPM(tristate) dependency case. Arnaud Lacombe summarizes the Kconfig bug as, "So it would seem direct dependency state influence the state of reverse dependencies.." For a detailed explanation, refer to Arnaud Lacombe's posting http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/23/498. With the "encrypted-keys: remove trusted-keys dependency" patch, EVM can now be built without a dependency on TCG_TPM. The trusted-keys dependency requires trusted-keys to either be builtin or not selected. This dependency will prevent the boolean/tristate mismatch from occuring.

Although the EVM encrypted-key should be encrypted/decrypted using a trusted-key, a user-defined key could be used instead. When using a user- defined key, a TCG_TPM dependency should not be required. Unfortunately, the encrypted-key code needs to be refactored a bit in order to remove this dependency.

2011-07-18evm: evm_verify_hmac must not return INTEGRITY_UNKNOWNDmitry Kasatkin
If EVM is not supported or enabled, evm_verify_hmac() returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN, which ima_appraise_measurement() ignores and sets the appraisal status based solely on the security.ima verification. evm_verify_hmac() also returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN for other failures, such as temporary failures like -ENOMEM, resulting in possible attack vectors. This patch changes the default return code for temporary/unexpected failures, like -ENOMEM, from INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN to INTEGRITY_FAIL, making evm_verify_hmac() fail safe. As a result, failures need to be re-evaluated in order to catch both temporary errors, such as the -ENOMEM, as well as errors that have been resolved in fix mode.

(Assumes an LSM module protects the setting/removing of xattr.)

2011-07-18evm: add support for different security.evm data typesDmitry Kasatkin
EVM protects a file's security extended attributes(xattrs) against integrity attacks. The current patchset maintains an HMAC-sha1 value across the security xattrs, storing the value as the extended attribute 'security.evm'. We anticipate other methods for protecting the security extended attributes. This patch reserves the first byte of 'security.evm' as a place holder for the type of method. Changelog v6: - move evm_ima_xattr_type definition to security/integrity/integrity.h - defined a structure for the EVM xattr called evm_ima_xattr_data (based on Serge Hallyn's suggestion) - removed unnecessary memset Signed-off-by: Dmitry Kasatkin <dmitry.kasatkin@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com>
2011-07-18evm: re-releaseMimi Zohar
EVM protects a file's security extended attributes(xattrs) against integrity attacks. This patchset provides the framework and an initial method. The initial method maintains an HMAC-sha1 value across the security extended attributes, storing the HMAC value as the extended attribute 'security.evm'. Other methods of validating the integrity of a file's metadata will be posted separately (eg. EVM-digital-signatures). While this patchset does authenticate the security xattrs, and cryptographically binds them to the inode, coming extensions will bind other directory and inode metadata for more complete protection. To help simplify the review and upstreaming process, each extension will be posted separately (eg. IMA-appraisal, IMA-appraisal-directory). For a general overview of the proposed Linux integrity subsystem, refer to Dave Safford's whitepaper: http://downloads.sf.net/project/linux-ima/linux-ima/Integrity_overview.pdf. EVM depends on the Kernel Key Retention System to provide it with a trusted/encrypted key for the HMAC-sha1 operation. The key is loaded onto the root's keyring using keyctl. Until EVM receives notification that the key has been successfully loaded onto the keyring (echo 1 > <securityfs>/evm), EVM can not create or validate the 'security.evm' xattr, but returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN. Loading the key and signaling EVM should be done as early as possible. Normally this is done in the initramfs, which has already been measured as part of the trusted boot. For more information on creating and loading existing trusted/encrypted keys, refer to Documentation/keys-trusted-encrypted.txt. A sample dracut patch, which loads the trusted/encrypted key and enables EVM, is available from http://linux-ima.sourceforge.net/#EVM. Based on the LSMs enabled, the set of EVM protected security xattrs is defined at compile. EVM adds the following three calls to the existing security hooks: evm_inode_setxattr(), evm_inode_post_setxattr(), and evm_inode_removexattr. To initialize and update the 'security.evm' extended attribute, EVM defines three calls: evm_inode_post_init(), evm_inode_post_setattr() and evm_inode_post_removexattr() hooks. To verify the integrity of a security xattr, EVM exports evm_verifyxattr(). Changelog v7: - Fixed URL in EVM ABI documentation Changelog v6: (based on Serge Hallyn's review) - fix URL in patch description - remove evm_hmac_size definition - use SHA1_DIGEST_SIZE (removed both MAX_DIGEST_SIZE and evm_hmac_size) - moved linux include before other includes - test for crypto_hash_setkey failure - fail earlier for invalid key - clear entire encrypted key, even on failure - check xattr name length before comparing xattr names Changelog: - locking based on i_mutex, remove evm_mutex - using trusted/encrypted keys for storing the EVM key used in the HMAC-sha1 operation. - replaced crypto hash with shash (Dmitry Kasatkin) - support for additional methods of verifying the security xattrs (Dmitry Kasatkin) - iint not allocated for all regular files, but only for those appraised - Use cap_sys_admin in lieu of cap_mac_admin - Use __vfs_setxattr_noperm(), without permission checks, from EVM Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com>

2011-02-23ima: remove unnecessary call to ima_must_measureMimi Zohar
The original ima_must_measure() function based its results on cached iint information, which required an iint be allocated for all files. Currently, an iint is allocated only for files in policy. As a result, for those files in policy, ima_must_measure() is now called twice: once to determine if the inode is in the measurement policy and, the second time, to determine if it needs to be measured/re-measured. The second call to ima_must_measure() unnecessarily checks to see if the file is in policy. As we already know the file is in policy, this patch removes the second unnecessary call to ima_must_measure(), removes the vestige iint parameter, and just checks the iint directly to determine if the inode has been measured or needs to be measured/re-measured.

2011-01-04ima: fix add LSM rule bugMimi Zohar
If security_filter_rule_init() doesn't return a rule, then not everything is as fine as the return code implies. This bug only occurs when the LSM (eg. SELinux) is disabled at runtime. Adding an empty LSM rule causes ima_match_rules() to always succeed, ignoring any remaining rules. default IMA TCB policy: # PROC_SUPER_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x9fa0 # SYSFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x62656572 # DEBUGFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x64626720 # TMPFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x01021994 # SECURITYFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x73636673 < LSM specific rule > dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t measure func=BPRM_CHECK measure func=FILE_MMAP mask=MAY_EXEC measure func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_READ uid=0 Thus without the patch, with the boot parameters 'tcb selinux=0', adding the above 'dont_measure obj_type=var_log_t' rule to the default IMA TCB measurement policy, would result in nothing being measured.

2010-10-26IMA: fix the ToMToU logicEric Paris
Current logic looks like this: rc = ima_must_measure(NULL, inode, MAY_READ, FILE_CHECK); if (rc < 0) goto out; if (mode & FMODE_WRITE) { if (inode->i_readcount) send_tomtou = true; goto out; } if (atomic_read(&inode->i_writecount) > 0) send_writers = true; Lets assume we have a policy which states that all files opened for read by root must be measured. Lets assume the file has permissions 777. Lets assume that root has the given file open for read. Lets assume that a non-root process opens the file write. The non-root process will get to ima_counts_get() and will check the ima_must_measure(). Since it is not supposed to measure it will goto out. We should check the i_readcount no matter what since we might be causing a ToMToU voilation! This is close to correct, but still not quite perfect. The situation could have been that root, which was interested in the mesurement opened and closed the file and another process which is not interested in the measurement is the one holding the i_readcount ATM. This is just overly strict on ToMToU violations, which is better than not strict enough...

2010-10-26IMA: drop refcnt from ima_iint_cache since it isn't neededEric Paris
Since finding a struct ima_iint_cache requires a valid struct inode, and the struct ima_iint_cache is supposed to have the same lifetime as a struct inode (technically they die together but don't need to be created at the same time) we don't have to worry about the ima_iint_cache outliving or dieing before the inode. So the refcnt isn't useful. Just get rid of it and free the structure when the inode is freed.

2010-10-26IMA: only allocate iint when neededEric Paris
IMA always allocates an integrity structure to hold information about every inode, but only needed this structure to track the number of readers and writers currently accessing a given inode.
