coredump: add %i/%I in core_pattern to report the tid of the crashed thread format_corename() can only pass the leader's pid to the core handler, but there is no simple way to figure out which thread originated the coredump. As Jan explains, this also means that there is no simple way to create the backtrace of the crashed process: As programs are mostly compiled with implicit gcc -fomit-frame-pointer one needs program's .eh_frame section (equivalently PT_GNU_EH_FRAME segment) or .debug_frame section. .debug_frame usually is present only in separate debug info files usually not even installed on the system. While .eh_frame is a part of the executable/library (and it is even always mapped for C++ exceptions unwinding) it no longer has to be present anywhere on the disk as the program could be upgraded in the meantime and the running instance has its executable file already unlinked from disk. One possibility is to echo 0x3f >/proc/*/coredump_filter and dump all the file-backed memory including the executable's .eh_frame section. But that can create huge core files, for example even due to mmapped data files. Other possibility would be to read .eh_frame from /proc/PID/mem at the core_pattern handler time of the core dump. For the backtrace one needs to read the register state first which can be done from core_pattern handler: ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tid, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACEEXIT) close(0); // close pipe fd to resume the sleeping dumper waitpid(); // should report EXIT PTRACE_GETREGS or other requests The remaining problem is how to get the 'tid' value of the crashed thread. It could be read from the first NT_PRSTATUS note of the core file but that makes the core_pattern handler complicated. Unfortunately %t is already used so this patch uses %i/%I. Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (https://github.com/abrt/abrt/wiki/overview) is experimenting with this. It is using the elfutils (https://fedorahosted.org/elfutils/) unwinder for generating the backtraces. Apart from not needing matching executables as mentioned above, another advantage is that we can get the backtrace without saving the core (which might be quite large) to disk.

coredump: only SIGKILL should interrupt the coredumping task There are 2 well known and ancient problems with coredump/signals, and a lot of related bug reports: - do_coredump() clears TIF_SIGPENDING but of course this can't help if, say, SIGCHLD comes after that. In this case the coredump can fail unexpectedly. See for example wait_for_dump_helper()->signal_pending() check but there are other reasons. - At the same time, dumping a huge core on the slow media can take a lot of time/resources and there is no way to kill the coredumping task reliably. In particular this is not oom_kill-friendly. This patch tries to fix the 1st problem, and makes the preparation for the next changes. We add the new SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP flag set by zap_threads() to indicate that this process dumps the core. prepare_signal() checks this flag and nacks any signal except SIGKILL. Note that this check tries to be conservative, in the long term we should probably treat the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT case equally but this needs more discussion. See marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120508897917439 Notes: - recalc_sigpending() doesn't check SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP. The patch assumes that dump_write/etc paths should never call it, but we can change it as well. - There is another source of TIF_SIGPENDING, freezer. This will be addressed separately.

coredump: ensure that SIGKILL always kills the dumping thread prepare_signal() blesses SIGKILL sent to the dumping process but this signal can be "lost" anyway. The problems is, complete_signal() sees SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT and skips the "kill them all" logic. And even if the dumping process is single-threaded (so the target is always "correct"), the group-wide SIGKILL is not recorded in task->pending and thus __fatal_signal_pending() won't be true. A multi-threaded case has even more problems. And even ignoring all technical details, SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT doesn't look right to me. This coredumping process is not exiting yet, it can do a lot of work dumping the core. With this patch the dumping process doesn't have SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, we set signal->group_exit_task instead. This makes signal_group_exit() true and thus this should equally close the races with exit/exec/stop but allows to kill the dumping thread reliably. Notes: - It is not clear what should we do with ->group_exit_code if the dumper was killed, see the next change. - we need more (hopefully straightforward) changes to ensure that SIGKILL actually interrupts the coredump. Basically we need to check __fatal_signal_pending() in dump_write() and dump_seek().

coredump: introduce dump_interrupted() By discussion with Mandeep. Change dump_write(), dump_seek() and do_coredump() to check signal_pending() and abort if it is true. dump_seek() does this only before f_op->llseek(), otherwise it relies on dump_write(). We need this change to ensure that the coredump won't delay suspend, and to ensure it reacts to SIGKILL "quickly enough", a core dump can take a lot of time. In particular this can help oom-killer. We add the new trivial helper, dump_interrupted() to add the comments and to simplify the potential freezer changes. Perhaps it will have more callers. Ideally it should do try_to_freeze() but then we need the unpleasant changes in dump_write() and wait_for_dump_helpers(). It is not trivial to change dump_write() to restart if f_op->write() fails because of freezing(). We need to handle the short writes, we need to clear TIF_SIGPENDING (and we can't rely on recalc_sigpending() unless we change it to check PF_DUMPCORE). And if the buggy f_op->write() sets TIF_SIGPENDING we can not distinguish this case from the race with freeze_task() + __thaw_task(). So we simply accept the fact that the freezer can truncate a core-dump but at least you can reliably suspend. Hopefully we can tolerate this unlikely case and the necessary complications doesn't worth a trouble. But if we decide to make the coredumping freezable later we can do this on top of this change.

fs: if a coredump already exists, unlink and recreate with O_EXCL It was possible for an attacking user to trick root (or another user) into writing his coredumps into an attacker-readable, pre-existing file using rename() or link(), causing the disclosure of secret data from the victim process' virtual memory. Depending on the configuration, it was also possible to trick root into overwriting system files with coredumps. Fix that issue by never writing coredumps into existing files. Requirements for the attack: - The attack only applies if the victim's process has a nonzero RLIMIT_CORE and is dumpable. - The attacker can trick the victim into coredumping into an attacker-writable directory D, either because the core_pattern is relative and the victim's cwd is attacker-writable or because an absolute core_pattern pointing to a world-writable directory is used. - The attacker has one of these: A: on a system with protected_hardlinks=0: execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable file on the same partition as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack takes place. (In practice, there are lots of files that fulfill this condition, e.g. entries in Debian's /var/lib/dpkg/info/.) This does not apply to most Linux systems because most distros set protected_hardlinks=1. B: on a system with protected_hardlinks=1: execute access to a folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable and attacker-writable file on the same partition as D, and the victim-owned file will be deleted before the main part of the attack takes place. (This seems to be uncommon.) C: on any system, independent of protected_hardlinks: write access to a non-sticky folder containing a victim-owned, attacker-readable file on the same partition as D (This seems to be uncommon.) The basic idea is that the attacker moves the victim-owned file to where he expects the victim process to dump its core. The victim process dumps its core into the existing file, and the attacker reads the coredump from it. If the attacker can't move the file because he does not have write access to the containing directory, he can instead link the file to a directory he controls, then wait for the original link to the file to be deleted (because the kernel checks that the link count of the corefile is 1). A less reliable variant that requires D to be non-sticky works with link() and does not require deletion of the original link: link() the file into D, but then unlink() it directly before the kernel performs the link count check. On systems with protected_hardlinks=0, this variant allows an attacker to not only gain information from coredumps, but also clobber existing, victim-writable files with coredumps.

coredump: introduce dump_interrupted() By discussion with Mandeep. Change dump_write(), dump_seek() and do_coredump() to check signal_pending() and abort if it is true. dump_seek() does this only before f_op->llseek(), otherwise it relies on dump_write(). We need this change to ensure that the coredump won't delay suspend, and to ensure it reacts to SIGKILL "quickly enough", a core dump can take a lot of time. In particular this can help oom-killer. We add the new trivial helper, dump_interrupted() to add the comments and to simplify the potential freezer changes. Perhaps it will have more callers. Ideally it should do try_to_freeze() but then we need the unpleasant changes in dump_write() and wait_for_dump_helpers(). It is not trivial to change dump_write() to restart if f_op->write() fails because of freezing(). We need to handle the short writes, we need to clear TIF_SIGPENDING (and we can't rely on recalc_sigpending() unless we change it to check PF_DUMPCORE). And if the buggy f_op->write() sets TIF_SIGPENDING we can not distinguish this case from the race with freeze_task() + __thaw_task(). So we simply accept the fact that the freezer can truncate a core-dump but at least you can reliably suspend. Hopefully we can tolerate this unlikely case and the necessary complications doesn't worth a trouble. But if we decide to make the coredumping freezable later we can do this on top of this change.
