2008-06-10ipsec: pfkey should ignore events when no listenersJamal Hadi Salim1-0/+3
When pfkey has no km listeners, it still does a lot of work before finding out there aint nobody out there. If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? In this case it makes a lot of noise: With this short-circuit adding 10s of thousands of SAs using netlink improves performance by ~10%.

2008-04-22[IPSEC]: Fix catch-22 with algorithm IDs above 31Herbert Xu1-1/+1
As it stands it's impossible to use any authentication algorithms with an ID above 31 portably. It just happens to work on x86 but fails miserably on ppc64. The reason is that we're using a bit mask to check the algorithm ID but the mask is only 32 bits wide. After looking at how this is used in the field, I have concluded that in the long term we should phase out state matching by IDs because this is made superfluous by the reqid feature. For current applications, the best solution IMHO is to allow all algorithms when the bit masks are all ~0. The following patch does exactly that. This bug was identified by IBM when testing on the ppc64 platform using the NULL authentication algorithm which has an ID of 251.

2008-04-12LSM: Make the Labeled IPsec hooks more stack friendlyPaul Moore1-12/+11
The xfrm_get_policy() and xfrm_add_pol_expire() put some rather large structs on the stack to work around the LSM API. This patch attempts to fix that problem by changing the LSM API to require only the relevant "security" pointers instead of the entire SPD entry; we do this for all of the security_xfrm_policy*() functions to keep things consistent.

2007-12-19[IPSEC]: Avoid undefined shift operation when testing algorithm IDHerbert Xu1-2/+12
The aalgos/ealgos fields are only 32 bits wide. However, af_key tries to test them with the expression 1 << id where id can be as large as 253. This produces different behaviour on different architectures. The following patch explicitly checks whether ID is greater than 31 and fails the check if that's the case. We cannot easily extend the mask to be longer than 32 bits due to exposure to user-space. Besides, this whole interface is obsolete anyway in favour of the xfrm_user interface which doesn't use this bit mask in templates (well not within the kernel anyway).

2007-11-26[IPSEC]: Temporarily remove locks around copying of non-atomic fieldsHerbert Xu1-2/+0
The change 050f009e16f908932070313c1745d09dc69fd62b [IPSEC]: Lock state when copying non-atomic fields to user-space caused a regression. Ingo Molnar reports that it causes a potential dead-lock found by the lock validator as it tries to take x->lock within xfrm_state_lock while numerous other sites take the locks in opposite order. For 2.6.24, the best fix is to simply remove the added locks as that puts us back in the same state as we've been in for years. For later kernels a proper fix would be to reverse the locking order for every xfrm state user such that if x->lock is taken together with xfrm_state_lock then it is to be taken within it.

This patch adds locking so that when we're copying non-atomic fields such as life-time or coaddr to user-space we don't get a partial result. For af_key I've changed every instance of pfkey_xfrm_state2msg apart from expiration notification to include the keys and life-times. This is in-line with XFRM behaviour.

2007-10-10[IPSEC]: Move common code into xfrm_alloc_spiHerbert Xu1-17/+12
This patch moves some common code that conceptually belongs to the xfrm core from af_key/xfrm_user into xfrm_alloc_spi. In particular, the spin lock on the state is now taken inside xfrm_alloc_spi. Previously it also protected the construction of the response PF_KEY/XFRM messages to user-space. This is inconsistent as other identical constructions are not protected by the state lock. This is bad because they in fact should be protected but only in certain spots (so as not to hold the lock for too long which may cause packet drops). The SPI byte order conversion has also been moved. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-10-10[NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.Eric W. Biederman1-2/+5
This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting. By virtue of this all socket create methods are touched. In addition the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace. Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe. Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the exotic protocols are supported. Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

2007-10-10[NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespaceEric W. Biederman1-2/+3
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace. It modifies the global variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace. The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument, and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument. This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces. Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents that are relevant to a single network namespace.

This patch modifies the current ipsec audit layer by breaking it up into purpose driven audit calls. So far, the only audit calls made are when add/delete an SA/policy. It had been discussed to give each key manager it's own calls to do this, but I found there to be much redundnacy since they did the exact same things, except for how they got auid and sid, so I combined them.

2007-08-02[PF_KEY]: Fix ipsec not working in 2.6.23-rc1-git10Joy Latten1-0/+3
Although an ipsec SA was established, kernel couldn't seem to find it. I think since we are now using "x->sel.family" instead of "family" in the xfrm_selector_match() called in xfrm_state_find(), af_key needs to set this field too, just as xfrm_user. In af_key.c, x->sel.family only gets set when there's an ext_hdrs[SADB_EXT_ADDRESS_PROXY-1] which I think is for tunnel. I think pfkey needs to also set the x->sel.family field when it is 0.

2007-06-07xfrm: Add security check before flushing SAD/SPDJoy Latten1-2/+8
Currently we check for permission before deleting entries from SAD and SPD, (see security_xfrm_policy_delete() security_xfrm_state_delete()) However we are not checking for authorization when flushing the SPD and the SAD completely. It was perhaps missed in the original security hooks patch. This patch adds a security check when flushing entries from the SAD and SPD. It runs the entire database and checks each entry for a denial. If the process attempting the flush is unable to remove all of the entries a denial is logged the the flush function returns an error without removing anything. This is particularly useful when a process may need to create or delete its own xfrm entries used for things like labeled networking but that same process should not be able to delete other entries or flush the entire database.

2007-03-07[IPSEC]: xfrm_policy delete security check misplacedEric Paris1-4/+2
The security hooks to check permissions to remove an xfrm_policy were actually done after the policy was removed. Since the unlinking and deletion are done in xfrm_policy_by* functions this moves the hooks inside those 2 functions. There we have all the information needed to do the security check and it can be done before the deletion. Since auditing requires the result of that security check err has to be passed back and forth from the xfrm_policy_by* functions. This patch also fixes a bug where a deletion that failed the security check could cause improper accounting on the xfrm_policy (xfrm_get_policy didn't have a put on the exit path for the hold taken by xfrm_policy_by*) It also fixes the return code when no policy is found in xfrm_add_pol_expire. In old code (at least back in the 2.6.18 days) err wasn't used before the return when no policy is found and so the initialization would cause err to be ENOENT. But since err has since been used above when we don't get a policy back from the xfrm_policy_by* function we would always return 0 instead of the intended ENOENT. Also fixed some white space damage in the same area.

2006-10-11IPsec: correct semantics for SELinux policy matchingVenkat Yekkirala1-5/+0
Currently when an IPSec policy rule doesn't specify a security context, it is assumed to be "unlabeled" by SELinux, and so the IPSec policy rule fails to match to a flow that it would otherwise match to, unless one has explicitly added an SELinux policy rule allowing the flow to "polmatch" to the "unlabeled" IPSec policy rules. In the absence of such an explicitly added SELinux policy rule, the IPSec policy rule fails to match and so the packet(s) flow in clear text without the otherwise applicable xfrm(s) applied. The above SELinux behavior violates the SELinux security notion of "deny by default" which should actually translate to "encrypt by default" in the above case. This was first reported by Evgeniy Polyakov and the way James Morris was seeing the problem was when connecting via IPsec to a confined service on an SELinux box (vsftpd), which did not have the appropriate SELinux policy permissions to send packets via IPsec. With this patch applied, SELinux "polmatching" of flows Vs. IPSec policy rules will only come into play when there's a explicit context specified for the IPSec policy rule (which also means there's corresponding SELinux policy allowing appropriate domains/flows to polmatch to this context). Secondly, when a security module is loaded (in this case, SELinux), the security_xfrm_policy_lookup() hook can return errors other than access denied, such as -EINVAL. We were not handling that correctly, and in fact inverting the return logic and propagating a false "ok" back up to xfrm_lookup(), which then allowed packets to pass as if they were not associated with an xfrm policy. The solution for this is to first ensure that errno values are correctly propagated all the way back up through the various call chains from security_xfrm_policy_lookup(), and handled correctly. Then, flow_cache_lookup() is modified, so that if the policy resolver fails (typically a permission denied via the security module), the flow cache entry is killed rather than having a null policy assigned (which indicates that the packet can pass freely). This also forces any future lookups for the same flow to consult the security module (e.g. SELinux) for current security policy (rather than, say, caching the error on the flow cache entry). This patch: Fix the selinux side of things. This makes sure SELinux polmatching of flow contexts to IPSec policy rules comes into play only when an explicit context is associated with the IPSec policy rule. Also, this no longer defaults the context of a socket policy to the context of the socket since the "no explicit context" case is now handled properly.
