From f5509cc18daa7f82bcc553be70df2117c8eedc16 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Tue, 7 Jun 2016 11:05:33 -0700 Subject: mm: Hardened usercopy This is the start of porting PAX_USERCOPY into the mainline kernel. This is the first set of features, controlled by CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY. The work is based on code by PaX Team and Brad Spengler, and an earlier port from Casey Schaufler. Additional non-slab page tests are from Rik van Riel. This patch contains the logic for validating several conditions when performing copy_to_user() and copy_from_user() on the kernel object being copied to/from: - address range doesn't wrap around - address range isn't NULL or zero-allocated (with a non-zero copy size) - if on the slab allocator: - object size must be less than or equal to copy size (when check is implemented in the allocator, which appear in subsequent patches) - otherwise, object must not span page allocations (excepting Reserved and CMA ranges) - if on the stack - object must not extend before/after the current process stack - object must be contained by a valid stack frame (when there is arch/build support for identifying stack frames) - object must not overlap with kernel text Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Tested-by: Valdis Kletnieks Tested-by: Michael Ellerman --- security/Kconfig | 28 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 28 insertions(+) (limited to 'security') diff --git a/security/Kconfig b/security/Kconfig index 176758cdfa57..df28f2b6f3e1 100644 --- a/security/Kconfig +++ b/security/Kconfig @@ -118,6 +118,34 @@ config LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR this low address space will need the permission specific to the systems running LSM. +config HAVE_HARDENED_USERCOPY_ALLOCATOR + bool + help + The heap allocator implements __check_heap_object() for + validating memory ranges against heap object sizes in + support of CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY. + +config HAVE_ARCH_HARDENED_USERCOPY + bool + help + The architecture supports CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY by + calling check_object_size() just before performing the + userspace copies in the low level implementation of + copy_to_user() and copy_from_user(). + +config HARDENED_USERCOPY + bool "Harden memory copies between kernel and userspace" + depends on HAVE_ARCH_HARDENED_USERCOPY + select BUG + help + This option checks for obviously wrong memory regions when + copying memory to/from the kernel (via copy_to_user() and + copy_from_user() functions) by rejecting memory ranges that + are larger than the specified heap object, span multiple + separately allocates pages, are not on the process stack, + or are part of the kernel text.
