When `SELinuxContext=` parameter is prefixed with `-`, the documentation states
that any errors determining or changing context should be ignored, but this
doesn't actually happen and the service may fail with `229/SELINUX_CONTEXT`.
Fix by adding checks to `context->selinux_context_ignore`.
Closes: #21057
This reverts commit d8e3c31bd8.
A poorly documented fact is that SELinux unfortunately uses nosuid mount flag
to specify that also a fundamental feature of SELinux, domain transitions, must
not be allowed either. While this could be mitigated case by case by changing
the SELinux policy to use `nosuid_transition`, such mitigations would probably
have to be added everywhere if systemd used automatic nosuid mount flags when
`NoNewPrivileges=yes` would be implied. This isn't very desirable from SELinux
policy point of view since also untrusted mounts in service's mount namespaces
could start triggering domain transitions.
Alternatively there could be directives to override this behavior globally or
for each service (for example, new directives `SUIDPaths=`/`NoSUIDPaths=` or
more generic mount flag applicators), but since there's little value of the
commit by itself (setting NNP already disables most setuid functionality), it's
simpler to revert the commit. Such new directives could be used to implement
the original goal.
When `NoNewPrivileges=yes`, the service shouldn't have a need for any
setuid/setgid programs, so in case there will be a new mount namespace anyway,
mount the file systems with MS_NOSUID.
Implement directives `NoExecPaths=` and `ExecPaths=` to control `MS_NOEXEC`
mount flag for the file system tree. This can be used to implement file system
W^X policies, and for example with allow-listing mode (NoExecPaths=/) a
compromised service would not be able to execute a shell, if that was not
explicitly allowed.
Example:
[Service]
NoExecPaths=/
ExecPaths=/usr/bin/daemon /usr/lib64 /usr/lib
Closes: #17942.
Quoting the manual page of stime(2): "Starting with glibc 2.31, this function
is no longer available to newly linked applications and is no longer declared
in <time.h>."
With new directive SystemCallLog= it's possible to list system calls to be
logged. This can be used for auditing or temporarily when constructing system
call filters.

Unprivileged test-fs-util fails on my system since /sys/dev/block is
inaccessible for unprivileged users, so let's skip encrypted path test if we
get EACCES or similar.
For low memory machines (256MB), 10% of RAM for /run may not be enough for
re-exec of PID1 because 16MB of free space is required and /run may already
contain something.
Limit size of various tmpfs mounts to 10% of RAM, except volatile root and /var
to 25%. Another exception is made for /dev (also /devs for PrivateDevices) and
/sys/fs/cgroup since no (or very few) regular files are expected to be used.
In addition, since directories, symbolic links, device specials and xattrs are
not counted towards the size= limit, number of inodes is also limited
correspondingly: 4MB size translates to 1k of inodes (assuming 4k each), 10% of
RAM (using 16GB of RAM as baseline) translates to 400k and 25% to 1M inodes.
Because nr_inodes option can't use ratios like size option, there's an
unfortunate side effect that with small memory systems the limit may be on the
too large side. Also, on an extremely small device with only 256MB of RAM, 10%
of RAM for /run may not be enough for re-exec of PID1 because 16MB of free
space is required.
Don't assume that 4MB can be allocated from stack since there could be smaller
DefaultLimitSTACK= in force, so let's use malloc(). NUL terminate the huge
strings by hand, also ensure termination in test_lz4_decompress_partial() and
optimize the memset() for the string.
Some items in /proc and /etc may not be accessible to poor unprivileged users
due to e.g. SELinux, BOFH or both, so check for EACCES and EPERM.
/var/tmp may be a symlink to /tmp and then path_compare() will always fail, so
let's stick to /tmp like elsewhere.
/tmp may be mounted with noexec option and then trying to execute scripts from
there would fail.
Detect and warn if seccomp is already in use, which could make seccomp test
fail if the syscalls are already blocked.
Unset $TMPDIR so it will not break specifier tests where %T is assumed to be
/tmp and %V /var/tmp.
Add `ProtectClock=yes` to systemd units. Since it implies certain
`DeviceAllow=` rules, make sure that the units have `DeviceAllow=` rules so
they are still able to access other devices. Exclude timesyncd and timedated.
Without changing the SELinux label for private /dev of a service, it will take
a generic file system label:
system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0
After this change it is the same as without `PrivateDevices=yes`:
system_u:object_r:device_t:s0
This helps writing SELinux policies, as the same rules for `/dev` will apply
despite any `PrivateDevices=yes` setting.
In case the dissected image has a filesystem, don't scan for partitions. This
avoids problems with services using a `RootImage=` in early boot when udevd is
not yet started.
/dev used to be mounted with "exec" flag due to /dev/MAKEDEV script but that's
history and it's now located in /sbin. mmap() with file descriptor to
"/dev/zero" (instead of modern mmap(,,,MAP_ANON...)) will still work.

Rely on information provided by /proc/*/stat and /sys/dev/char for resolving
the controlling tty for the display server, instead of trying to access the
tty device in /dev (which may not be accessible for example due to
PrivateDevices=yes).
Don't try to show top level drop-in for non-existent units or when trying to
instantiate non-instantiated units:
$ systemctl cat nonexistent@.service
Assertion 'name' failed at src/shared/dropin.c:143, function unit_file_find_dirs(). Aborting.
$ systemctl cat systemd-journald@.service
Assertion 'name' failed at src/shared/dropin.c:143, function unit_file_find_dirs(). Aborting.
If a daemon is not started as root, most likely it also can't create its
directory and let's not try to resolve the user in that case either.
Create /run/systemd/netif/lldp with tmpfiles.d like other netif directories.
This is also very helpful for preparing a RootImage for the daemons as NSS crud
is not needed.
It's possible for a zombie process to have live threads. These are not listed
in /sys in "cgroup.procs" for cgroupsv2, but they show up in
"cgroup.threads" (cgroupv2) or "tasks" (cgroupv1) nodes. When killing a
cgroup (v2 only) with SIGKILL, let's also kill threads after killing processes,
so the live threads of a zombie get killed too.
Closes#12262.
While the need for access to character devices can be tricky to determine for
the general case, it's obvious that most of our services have no need to access
block devices. For logind and timedated this can be tightened further.
Let services use a private UTS namespace. In addition, a seccomp filter is
installed on set{host,domain}name and a ro bind mounts on
/proc/sys/kernel/{host,domain}name.
I had accidentally filled my /var partition. This caused backlight to fail to
start even with disk space, because the brightness files were truncated to zero
size:
systemd-backlight[624]: acpi_video0: Failed to parse brightness "": Invalid argument
systemd-backlight[624]: acpi_video0: Failed to write system 'brightness' attribute: No such device or address
systemd[1]: systemd-backlight@backlight:acpi_video0.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
systemd[1]: systemd-backlight@backlight:acpi_video0.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
systemd[1]: Failed to start Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of backlight:acpi_video0.
Handle a truncated file like non-existent file.
Found by inspecting results of running this small program:
int main(int argc, const char **argv) {
for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
FILE *f;
char line[1024], prev[1024], *r;
int lineno;
prev[0] = '\0';
lineno = 1;
f = fopen(argv[i], "r");
if (!f)
exit(1);
do {
r = fgets(line, sizeof(line), f);
if (!r)
break;
if (strcmp(line, prev) == 0)
printf("%s:%d: error: dup %s", argv[i], lineno, line);
lineno++;
strcpy(prev, line);
} while (!feof(f));
fclose(f);
}
}
Add LockPersonality boolean to allow locking down personality(2)
system call so that the execution domain can't be changed.
This may be useful to improve security because odd emulations
may be poorly tested and source of vulnerabilities, while
system services shouldn't need any weird personalities.
On my computer, the minimum brightness enforced by clamping in
backlight is too bright.
Let udev property ID_BACKLIGHT_CLAMP control whether the brightness
is clamped or not.
If the received NTP message from server didn't fit to our buffer, either
it is doing something nasty or we don't know the protocol. Consider the
packet as invalid.
(David: add parantheses around conditional)
When setting up a namespace, mount flags like noexec, nosuid and
nodev are cleared, so the mounts always have exec, suid and dev
flags enabled.
Copy source directory mount flags to target mount when remounting
the bind mounts.
