Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== v6->v7: - permit SK_REUSEPORT program type under CAP_BPF as suggested by Marek Majkowski. It's equivalent to SOCKET_FILTER which is unpriv. v5->v6: - split allow_ptr_leaks into four flags. - retain bpf_jit_limit under cap_sys_admin. - fixed few other issues spotted by Daniel. v4->v5: Split BPF operations that are allowed under CAP_SYS_ADMIN into combination of CAP_BPF, CAP_PERFMON, CAP_NET_ADMIN and keep some of them under CAP_SYS_ADMIN. The user process has to have - CAP_BPF to create maps, do other sys_bpf() commands and load SK_REUSEPORT progs. Note: dev_map, sock_hash, sock_map map types still require CAP_NET_ADMIN. That could be relaxed in the future. - CAP_BPF and CAP_PERFMON to load tracing programs. - CAP_BPF and CAP_NET_ADMIN to load networking programs. (or CAP_SYS_ADMIN for backward compatibility). CAP_BPF solves three main goals: 1. provides isolation to user space processes that drop CAP_SYS_ADMIN and switch to CAP_BPF. More on this below. This is the major difference vs v4 set back from Sep 2019. 2. makes networking BPF progs more secure, since CAP_BPF + CAP_NET_ADMIN prevents pointer leaks and arbitrary kernel memory access. 3. enables fuzzers to exercise all of the verifier logic. Eventually finding bugs and making BPF infra more secure. Currently fuzzers run in unpriv. They will be able to run with CAP_BPF. The patchset is long overdue follow-up from the last plumbers conference. Comparing to what was discussed at LPC the CAP* checks at attach time are gone. For tracing progs the CAP_SYS_ADMIN check was done at load time only. There was no check at attach time. For networking and cgroup progs CAP_SYS_ADMIN was required at load time and CAP_NET_ADMIN at attach time, but there are several ways to bypass CAP_NET_ADMIN: - if networking prog is using tail_call writing FD into prog_array will effectively attach it, but bpf_map_update_elem is an unprivileged operation. - freplace prog with CAP_SYS_ADMIN can replace networking prog Consolidating all CAP checks at load time makes security model similar to open() syscall. Once the user got an FD it can do everything with it. read/write/poll don't check permissions. The same way when bpf_prog_load command returns an FD the user can do everything (including attaching, detaching, and bpf_test_run). The important design decision is to allow ID->FD transition for CAP_SYS_ADMIN only. What it means that user processes can run with CAP_BPF and CAP_NET_ADMIN and they will not be able to affect each other unless they pass FDs via scm_rights or via pinning in bpffs. ID->FD is a mechanism for human override and introspection. An admin can do 'sudo bpftool prog ...'. It's possible to enforce via LSM that only bpftool binary does bpf syscall with CAP_SYS_ADMIN and the rest of user space processes do bpf syscall with CAP_BPF isolating bpf objects (progs, maps, links) that are owned by such processes from each other. Another significant change from LPC is that the verifier checks are split into four flags. The allow_ptr_leaks flag allows pointer manipulations. The bpf_capable flag enables all modern verifier features like bpf-to-bpf calls, BTF, bounded loops, dead code elimination, etc. All the goodness. The bypass_spec_v1 flag enables indirect stack access from bpf programs and disables speculative analysis and bpf array mitigations. The bypass_spec_v4 flag disables store sanitation. That allows networking progs with CAP_BPF + CAP_NET_ADMIN enjoy modern verifier features while being more secure. Some networking progs may need CAP_BPF + CAP_NET_ADMIN + CAP_PERFMON, since subtracting pointers (like skb->data_end - skb->data) is a pointer leak, but the verifier may get smarter in the future. ==================== Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> |

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.
