[AF_UNIX]: Datagram getpeersec This patch implements an API whereby an application can determine the label of its peer's Unix datagram sockets via the auxiliary data mechanism of recvmsg. Patch purpose: This patch enables a security-aware application to retrieve the security context of the peer of a Unix datagram socket. The application can then use this security context to determine the security context for processing on behalf of the peer who sent the packet. Patch design and implementation: The design and implementation is very similar to the UDP case for INET sockets. Basically we build upon the existing Unix domain socket API for retrieving user credentials. Linux offers the API for obtaining user credentials via ancillary messages (i.e., out of band/control messages that are bundled together with a normal message). To retrieve the security context, the application first indicates to the kernel such desire by setting the SO_PASSSEC option via getsockopt. Then the application retrieves the security context using the auxiliary data mechanism. An example server application for Unix datagram socket should look like this: toggle = 1; toggle_len = sizeof(toggle); setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_PASSSEC, &toggle, &toggle_len); recvmsg(sockfd, &msg_hdr, 0); if (msg_hdr.msg_controllen > sizeof(struct cmsghdr)) { cmsg_hdr = CMSG_FIRSTHDR(&msg_hdr); if (cmsg_hdr->cmsg_len <= CMSG_LEN(sizeof(scontext)) && cmsg_hdr->cmsg_level == SOL_SOCKET && cmsg_hdr->cmsg_type == SCM_SECURITY) { memcpy(&scontext, CMSG_DATA(cmsg_hdr), sizeof(scontext)); } } sock_setsockopt is enhanced with a new socket option SOCK_PASSSEC to allow a server socket to receive security context of the peer. Testing: We have tested the patch by setting up Unix datagram client and server applications. We verified that the server can retrieve the security context using the auxiliary data mechanism of recvmsg.

flag parameters: socket and socketpair This patch adds support for flag values which are ORed to the type passwd to socket and socketpair. The additional code is minimal. The flag values in this implementation can and must match the O_* flags. This avoids overhead in the conversion. The internal functions sock_alloc_fd and sock_map_fd get a new parameters and all callers are changed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <netinet/in.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #define PORT 57392 /* For Linux these must be the same. */ #define SOCK_CLOEXEC O_CLOEXEC int main (void) { int fd; fd = socket (PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if (fd == -1) { puts ("socket(0) failed"); return 1; } int coe = fcntl (fd, F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if (coe & FD_CLOEXEC) { puts ("socket(0) set close-on-exec flag"); return 1; } close (fd); fd = socket (PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC, 0); if (fd == -1) { puts ("socket(SOCK_CLOEXEC) failed"); return 1; } coe = fcntl (fd, F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if ((coe & FD_CLOEXEC) == 0) { puts ("socket(SOCK_CLOEXEC) does not set close-on-exec flag"); return 1; } close (fd); int fds[2]; if (socketpair (PF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, fds) == -1) { puts ("socketpair(0) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { coe = fcntl (fds[i], F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if (coe & FD_CLOEXEC) { printf ("socketpair(0) set close-on-exec flag for fds[%d]\n", i); return 1; } close (fds[i]); } if (socketpair (PF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC, 0, fds) == -1) { puts ("socketpair(SOCK_CLOEXEC) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { coe = fcntl (fds[i], F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if ((coe & FD_CLOEXEC) == 0) { printf ("socketpair(SOCK_CLOEXEC) does not set close-on-exec flag for fds[%d]\n", i); return 1; } close (fds[i]); } puts ("OK"); return 0; } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Acked-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@googlemail.com> Cc: "David S.
