      "message": "KEYS: Add a keyctl to install a process\u0027s session keyring on its parent [try #6]\n\nAdd a keyctl to install a process\u0027s session keyring onto its parent.  This\nreplaces the parent\u0027s session keyring.  Because the COW credential code does\nnot permit one process to change another process\u0027s credentials directly, the\nchange is deferred until userspace next starts executing again.  Normally this\nwill be after a wait*() syscall.\n\nTo support this, three new security hooks have been provided:\ncred_alloc_blank() to allocate unset security creds, cred_transfer() to fill in\nthe blank security creds and key_session_to_parent() - which asks the LSM if\nthe process may replace its parent\u0027s session keyring.\n\nThe replacement may only happen if the process has the same ownership details\nas its parent, and the process has LINK permission on the session keyring, and\nthe session keyring is owned by the process, and the LSM permits it.\n\nNote that this requires alteration to each architecture\u0027s notify_resume path.\nThis has been done for all arches barring blackfin, m68k* and xtensa, all of\nwhich need assembly alteration to support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME.  This allows the\nreplacement to be performed at the point the parent process resumes userspace\nexecution.\n\nThis allows the userspace AFS pioctl emulation to fully emulate newpag() and\nthe VIOCSETTOK and VIOCSETTOK2 pioctls, all of which require the ability to\nalter the parent process\u0027s PAG membership.  However, since kAFS doesn\u0027t use\nPAGs per se, but rather dumps the keys into the session keyring, the session\nkeyring of the parent must be replaced if, for example, VIOCSETTOK is passed\nthe newpag flag.\n\nThis can be tested with the following program:\n\n\t#include \u003cstdio.h\u003e\n\t#include \u003cstdlib.h\u003e\n\t#include \u003ckeyutils.h\u003e\n\n\t#define KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT\t18\n\n\t#define OSERROR(X, S) do { if ((long)(X) \u003d\u003d -1) { perror(S); exit(1); } } while(0)\n\n\tint main(int argc, char **argv)\n\t{\n\t\tkey_serial_t keyring, key;\n\t\tlong ret;\n\n\t\tkeyring \u003d keyctl_join_session_keyring(argv[1]);\n\t\tOSERROR(keyring, \"keyctl_join_session_keyring\");\n\n\t\tkey \u003d add_key(\"user\", \"a\", \"b\", 1, keyring);\n\t\tOSERROR(key, \"add_key\");\n\n\t\tret \u003d keyctl(KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT);\n\t\tOSERROR(ret, \"KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT\");\n\n\t\treturn 0;\n\t}\n\nCompiled and linked with -lkeyutils, you should see something like:\n\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show\n\tSession Keyring\n\t       -3 --alswrv   4043  4043  keyring: _ses\n\t355907932 --alswrv   4043    -1   \\_ keyring: _uid.4043\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show\n\tSession Keyring\n\t       -3 --alswrv   4043  4043  keyring: _ses\n\t1055658746 --alswrv   4043  4043   \\_ user: a\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag hello\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show\n\tSession Keyring\n\t       -3 --alswrv   4043  4043  keyring: hello\n\t340417692 --alswrv   4043  4043   \\_ user: a\n\nWhere the test program creates a new session keyring, sticks a user key named\n\u0027a\u0027 into it and then installs it on its parent.\n\nSigned-off-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: James Morris \u003cjmorris@namei.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "[PATCH] keys: Permit running process to instantiate keys\n\nMake it possible for a running process (such as gssapid) to be able to\ninstantiate a key, as was requested by Trond Myklebust for NFS4.\n\nThe patch makes the following changes:\n\n (1) A new, optional key type method has been added. This permits a key type\n     to intercept requests at the point /sbin/request-key is about to be\n     spawned and do something else with them - passing them over the\n     rpc_pipefs files or netlink sockets for instance.\n\n     The uninstantiated key, the authorisation key and the intended operation\n     name are passed to the method.\n\n (2) The callout_info is no longer passed as an argument to /sbin/request-key\n     to prevent unauthorised viewing of this data using ps or by looking in\n     /proc/pid/cmdline.\n\n     This means that the old /sbin/request-key program will not work with the\n     patched kernel as it will expect to see an extra argument that is no\n     longer there.\n\n     A revised keyutils package will be made available tomorrow.\n\n (3) The callout_info is now attached to the authorisation key. Reading this\n     key will retrieve the information.\n\n (4) A new field has been added to the task_struct. This holds the\n     authorisation key currently active for a thread. Searches now look here\n     for the caller\u0027s set of keys rather than looking for an auth key in the\n     lowest level of the session keyring.\n\n     This permits a thread to be servicing multiple requests at once and to\n     switch between them. Note that this is per-thread, not per-process, and\n     so is usable in multithreaded programs.\n\n     The setting of this field is inherited across fork and exec.\n\n (5) A new keyctl function (KEYCTL_ASSUME_AUTHORITY) has been added that\n     permits a thread to assume the authority to deal with an uninstantiated\n     key. Assumption is only permitted if the authorisation key associated\n     with the uninstantiated key is somewhere in the thread\u0027s keyrings.\n\n     This function can also clear the assumption.\n\n (6) A new magic key specifier has been added to refer to the currently\n     assumed authorisation key (KEY_SPEC_REQKEY_AUTH_KEY).\n\n (7) Instantiation will only proceed if the appropriate authorisation key is\n     assumed first. The assumed authorisation key is discarded if\n     instantiation is successful.\n\n (8) key_validate() is moved from the file of request_key functions to the\n     file of permissions functions.\n\n (9) The documentation is updated.\n\nFrom: \u003cValdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu\u003e\n\n    Build fix.\n\nSigned-off-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Trond Myklebust \u003ctrond.myklebust@fys.uio.no\u003e\nCc: Alexander Zangerl \u003caz@bond.edu.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "[PATCH] Keys: Make request-key create an authorisation key\n\nThe attached patch makes the following changes:\n\n (1) There\u0027s a new special key type called \".request_key_auth\".\n\n     This is an authorisation key for when one process requests a key and\n     another process is started to construct it. This type of key cannot be\n     created by the user; nor can it be requested by kernel services.\n\n     Authorisation keys hold two references:\n\n     (a) Each refers to a key being constructed. When the key being\n     \t constructed is instantiated the authorisation key is revoked,\n     \t rendering it of no further use.\n\n     (b) The \"authorising process\". This is either:\n\n     \t (i) the process that called request_key(), or:\n\n     \t (ii) if the process that called request_key() itself had an\n     \t      authorisation key in its session keyring, then the authorising\n     \t      process referred to by that authorisation key will also be\n     \t      referred to by the new authorisation key.\n\n\t This means that the process that initiated a chain of key requests\n\t will authorise the lot of them, and will, by default, wind up with\n\t the keys obtained from them in its keyrings.\n\n (2) request_key() creates an authorisation key which is then passed to\n     /sbin/request-key in as part of a new session keyring.\n\n (3) When request_key() is searching for a key to hand back to the caller, if\n     it comes across an authorisation key in the session keyring of the\n     calling process, it will also search the keyrings of the process\n     specified therein and it will use the specified process\u0027s credentials\n     (fsuid, fsgid, groups) to do that rather than the calling process\u0027s\n     credentials.\n\n     This allows a process started by /sbin/request-key to find keys belonging\n     to the authorising process.\n\n (4) A key can be read, even if the process executing KEYCTL_READ doesn\u0027t have\n     direct read or search permission if that key is contained within the\n     keyrings of a process specified by an authorisation key found within the\n     calling process\u0027s session keyring, and is searchable using the\n     credentials of the authorising process.\n\n     This allows a process started by /sbin/request-key to read keys belonging\n     to the authorising process.\n\n (5) The magic KEY_SPEC_*_KEYRING key IDs when passed to KEYCTL_INSTANTIATE or\n     KEYCTL_NEGATE will specify a keyring of the authorising process, rather\n     than the process doing the instantiation.\n\n (6) One of the process keyrings can be nominated as the default to which\n     request_key() should attach new keys if not otherwise specified. This is\n     done with KEYCTL_SET_REQKEY_KEYRING and one of the KEY_REQKEY_DEFL_*\n     constants. The current setting can also be read using this call.\n\n (7) request_key() is partially interruptible. If it is waiting for another\n     process to finish constructing a key, it can be interrupted. This permits\n     a request-key cycle to be broken without recourse to rebooting.\n\nSigned-Off-By: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-Off-By: Benoit Boissinot \u003cbenoit.boissinot@ens-lyon.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"
