Currently apparmor_sk_clone_security() does not check for existing
label/peer in the 'new' struct sock; it just overwrites it, if any
(with another reference to the label of the source sock.)
static void apparmor_sk_clone_security(const struct sock *sk,
struct sock *newsk)
{
struct aa_sk_ctx *ctx = SK_CTX(sk);
struct aa_sk_ctx *new = SK_CTX(newsk);
new->label = aa_get_label(ctx->label);
new->peer = aa_get_label(ctx->peer);
}
This might leak label references, which might overflow under load.
Thus, check for and put labels, to prevent such errors.
Note this is similarly done on:
static int apparmor_socket_post_create(struct socket *sock, ...)
...
if (sock->sk) {
struct aa_sk_ctx *ctx = SK_CTX(sock->sk);
aa_put_label(ctx->label);
ctx->label = aa_get_label(label);
}
...
Context:
-------
The label reference count leak is observed if apparmor_sock_graft()
is called previously: this sets the 'ctx->label' field by getting
a reference to the current label (later overwritten, without put.)
static void apparmor_sock_graft(struct sock *sk, ...)
{
struct aa_sk_ctx *ctx = SK_CTX(sk);
if (!ctx->label)
ctx->label = aa_get_current_label();
}
And that is the case on crypto/af_alg.c:af_alg_accept():
int af_alg_accept(struct sock *sk, struct socket *newsock, ...)
...
struct sock *sk2;
...
sk2 = sk_alloc(...);
...
security_sock_graft(sk2, newsock);
security_sk_clone(sk, sk2);
...
Apparently both calls are done on their own right, especially for
other LSMs, being introduced in 2010/2014, before apparmor socket
mediation in 2017 (see commits [1,2,3,4]).
So, it looks OK there! Let's fix the reference leak in apparmor.
Test-case:
---------
Exercise that code path enough to overflow label reference count.
$ cat aa-refcnt-af_alg.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <linux/if_alg.h>
int main() {
int sockfd;
struct sockaddr_alg sa;
/* Setup the crypto API socket */
sockfd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
if (sockfd < 0) {
perror("socket");
return 1;
}
memset(&sa, 0, sizeof(sa));
sa.salg_family = AF_ALG;
strcpy((char *) sa.salg_type, "rng");
strcpy((char *) sa.salg_name, "stdrng");
if (bind(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *) &sa, sizeof(sa)) < 0) {
perror("bind");
return 1;
}
/* Accept a "connection" and close it; repeat. */
while (!close(accept(sockfd, NULL, 0)));
return 0;
}
$ gcc -o aa-refcnt-af_alg aa-refcnt-af_alg.c
$ ./aa-refcnt-af_alg

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
