In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
namespace: keep the lock on a mount that a propagated copy is moved beneath
attach_recursive_mnt() transfers MNT_LOCKED from the top mount to the
mount that is moved beneath it with MOVE_MOUNT_BENEATH. This allows the
owner of a user namespace to replace its locked /proc or its root. The
mount beneath takes on the job of covering the underlying mountpoint
allowing the top mount to be unmounted.
Consider two mount namespaces:
(H) The host H has a shared mount P with a secret in P/d
(Z) Z is a user namespace made from M. Its copy of P receives
propagation from the host's P and its copy of M's cover on P/d is
locked Z's owner must not get to see P/d.
Now (H) mounts X on P/d. This propagates into (Z). The copy of X lands
beneath (Z)'s locked cover. The locked property is transfered from (Z)'s
cover to the copy of X propagated beneath it. The cover is now unlocked.
Now (H) unmounts X again. The copy of X in (Z) gets unmounted and the
covering mount is left unlocked on top of P/d. (Z) can now unmount it:
Z: umount2(P/d) = EINVAL /* the cover is locked /
H: mount X on P/d, umount X / both propagate into Z /*
Z: umount2(P/d) = 0 /* the cover is now unlocked /
Z: read P/d/secret = "covered-by-root" / secret revealed */
So only transfer the locked property to the mount beneath for mounts the
caller has placed. A propagated copy that lands beneath a locked mount
is locked as well so that the mount at the bottom of the stack carries a
lock the way every check expects. The mount on top of it remains locked
to ensure that it keeps covering even if the propagated mount is
unmounted again.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. This vulnerability allows information disclosure when filesystem mount locks are improperly handled during mount propagation. When a propagated mount is placed beneath a locked mount and subsequently removed, the covering mount is incorrectly left unlocked. A local user in a user namespace can exploit this flaw to unmount the covering mount and access restricted host files.
