Title
unshare: fix unshare_fs() handling
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: unshare: fix unshare_fs() handling There's an unpleasant corner case in unshare(2), when we have a CLONE_NEWNS in flags and current->fs hadn't been shared at all; in that case copy_mnt_ns() gets passed current->fs instead of a private copy, which causes interesting warts in proof of correctness] > I guess if private means fs->users == 1, the condition could still be true. Unfortunately, it's worse than just a convoluted proof of correctness. Consider the case when we have CLONE_NEWCGROUP in addition to CLONE_NEWNS (and current->fs->users == 1). We pass current->fs to copy_mnt_ns(), all right. Suppose it succeeds and flips current->fs->{pwd,root} to corresponding locations in the new namespace. Now we proceed to copy_cgroup_ns(), which fails (e.g. with -ENOMEM). We call put_mnt_ns() on the namespace created by copy_mnt_ns(), it's destroyed and its mount tree is dissolved, but... current->fs->root and current->fs->pwd are both left pointing to now detached mounts. They are pinning those, so it's not a UAF, but it leaves the calling process with unshare(2) failing with -ENOMEM _and_ leaving it with pwd and root on detached isolated mounts. The last part is clearly a bug. There is other fun related to that mess (races with pivot_root(), including the one between pivot_root() and fork(), of all things), but this one is easy to isolate and fix - treat CLONE_NEWNS as "allocate a new fs_struct even if it hadn't been shared in the first place". Sure, we could go for something like "if both CLONE_NEWNS *and* one of the things that might end up failing after copy_mnt_ns() call in create_new_namespaces() are set, force allocation of new fs_struct", but let's keep it simple - the cost of copy_fs_struct() is trivial. Another benefit is that copy_mnt_ns() with CLONE_NEWNS *always* gets a freshly allocated fs_struct, yet to be attached to anything. That seriously simplifies the analysis... FWIW, that bug had been there since the introduction of unshare(2) ;-/

Suppose it succeeds and\\nflips current-\u003efs-\u003e{pwd,root} to corresponding locations in the new namespace.\\nNow we proceed to copy_cgroup_ns(), which fails (e.g. with -ENOMEM).\\nWe call put_mnt_ns() on the namespace created by copy_mnt_ns(), it\u0027s\\ndestroyed and its mount tree is dissolved, but...  current-\u003efs-\u003eroot and\\ncurrent-\u003efs-\u003epwd are both left pointing to now detached mounts.\\n\\nThey are pinning those, so it\u0027s not a UAF, but it leaves the calling\\nprocess with unshare(2) failing with -ENOMEM _and_ leaving it with\\npwd and root on detached isolated mounts.  The last part is clearly a bug.\\n\\nThere is other fun related to that mess (races with pivot_root(), including\\nthe one between pivot_root() and fork(), of all things), but this one\\nis easy to isolate and fix - treat CLONE_NEWNS as \\\"allocate a new\\nfs_struct even if it hadn\u0027t been shared in the first place\\\".  Sure, we could\\ngo for something like \\\"if both CLONE_NEWNS *and* one of the things that might\\nend up failing after copy_mnt_ns() call in create_new_namespaces() are set,\\nforce allocation of new fs_struct\\\", but let\u0027s keep it simple - the cost\\nof copy_fs_struct() is trivial.\\n\\nAnother benefit is that copy_mnt_ns() with CLONE_NEWNS *always* gets\\na freshly allocated fs_struct, yet to be attached to anything.  That\\nseriously simplifies the analysis...\\n\\nFWIW, that bug had been there since the introduction of unshare(2)
