This reworks the user validation infrastructure. There are now two
modes. In regular mode we are strict and test against a strict set of
valid chars. And in "relaxed" mode we just filter out some really
obvious, dangerous stuff. i.e. strict is whitelisting what is OK, but
"relaxed" is blacklisting what is really not OK.
The idea is that we use strict mode whenver we allocate a new user
(i.e. in sysusers.d or homed), while "relaxed" mode is when we process
users registered elsewhere, (i.e. userdb, logind, …)
The requirements on user name validity vary wildly. SSSD thinks its fine
to embedd "@" for example, while the suggested NAME_REGEX field on
Debian does not even allow uppercase chars…
This effectively liberaralizes a lot what we expect from usernames.
The code that warns about questionnable user names is now optional and
only used at places such as unit file parsing, so that it doesn't show
up on every userdb query, but only when processing configuration files
that know better.
Fixes: #15149#15090
When unit is reloaded, and the reloaded unit has bad-setting, then
unit_patch_contexts() is not called and exec_context::user and group
may not be configured.
A minimum reproducer for the case is:
- step 1.
$ sudo systemctl edit --full hoge.service
[Service]
oneshot
ExecStart=sleep 1h
- step 2.
$ sudo systemctl start hoge.service
- step 3.
$ sudo systemctl edit --full hoge.service
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=@bindir@/sleep 1h
DynamicUser=yes
Then pid1 crashed.
Fixes#14733.

This only works with clang, unfortunately gcc doesn't seem to implement the check
(tested with gcc-8.2.1-5.fc29.x86_64).

Let's be more careful with what we serialize: let's ensure we never
serialize strings that are longer than LONG_LINE_MAX, so that we know we
can read them back with read_line(…, LONG_LINE_MAX, …) safely.
In order to implement this all serialization functions are move to
serialize.[ch], and internally will do line size checks. We'd rather
skip a serialization line (with a loud warning) than write an overly
long line out. Of course, this is just a second level protection, after
all the data we serialize shouldn't be this long in the first place.
While we are at it also clean up logging: while serializing make sure to
always log about errors immediately. Also, (void)ify all calls we don't
expect errors in (or catch errors as part of the general
fflush_and_check() at the end.
These take a struct iovec to send data together with the passed FD.
The receive function returns the FD through an output argument. In case data is
received, but no FD is passed, the receive function will set the output
argument to -1 explicitly.
Update code in dynamic-user to use the new helpers.
When DynamicUser=yes and static User= are set, and the user has
different uid and gid, then as the storage socket for the dynamic
user does not contains gid, we need to obtain gid.
Follow-up for 9ec655cbbd.
Fixes#9702.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
This is similar to TAKE_PTR() but operates on file descriptors, and thus
assigns -1 to the fd parameter after returning it.
Removes 60 lines from our codebase. Pretty good too I think.
This macro will read a pointer of any type, return it, and set the
pointer to NULL. This is useful as an explicit concept of passing
ownership of a memory area between pointers.
This takes inspiration from Rust:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#method.take
and was suggested by Alan Jenkins (@sourcejedi).
It drops ~160 lines of code from our codebase, which makes me like it.
Also, I think it clarifies passing of ownership, and thus helps
readability a bit (at least for the initiated who know the new macro)
This makes systemd supports the case that DynamicUser=yes and
static user and group exist such that uid and gid of them are different.
We only refuse the operation when user does not exist but the group
with the same name exists.
Fixes#7013.
This fixes a mostly theoretical potential security hole: if for some
reason we failed to remove IPC objects created for a dynamic user (maybe
because a MAC/SElinux erronously prohibited), then we should not hand
out the same UID again until they are successfully removed.
With this commit we'll enumerate the IPC objects currently existing, and
step away from using a UID for the dynamic UID logic if there are any
matching it.
Let's optimize dynamic UID allocation a bit: if a StateDirectory= (or
suchlike) is configured, we start our allocation loop from that UID and
use it if it currently isn't used otherwise. This is beneficial as it
saves us from having to expensively recursively chown() these
directories in the typical case (which StateDirectory= does when it
notices that the owner of the directory doesn't match the UID picked).
With this in place we now have the a three-phase logic for allocating a
dynamic UID:
a) first, we try to use the owning UID of StateDirectory=,
CacheDirectory=, LogDirectory= if that exists and is currently
otherwise unused.
b) if that didn't work out, we hash the UID from the service name
c) if that didn't yield an unused UID either, randomly pick new ones
until we find a free one.
This adds IOVEC_INIT() and IOVEC_MAKE() for initializing iovec structures
from a pointer and a size. On top of these IOVEC_INIT_STRING() and
IOVEC_MAKE_STRING() are added which take a string and automatically
determine the size of the string using strlen().
This patch removes the old IOVEC_SET_STRING() macro, given that
IOVEC_MAKE_STRING() is now useful for similar purposes. Note that the
old IOVEC_SET_STRING() invocations were two characters shorter than the
new ones using IOVEC_MAKE_STRING(), but I think the new syntax is more
readable and more generic as it simply resolves to a C99 literal
structure initialization. Moreover, we can use very similar syntax now
for initializing strings and pointer+size iovec entries. We canalso use
the new macros to initialize function parameters on-the-fly or array
definitions. And given that we shouldn't have so many ways to do the
same stuff, let's just settle on the new macros.
(This also converts some code to use _cleanup_ where dynamically
allocated strings were using IOVEC_SET_STRING() before, to modernize
things a bit)
dbus-daemon does NSS name look-ups in order to enforce its bus policy. This
might dead-lock if an NSS module use wants to use D-Bus for the look-up itself,
like our nss-systemd does. Let's work around this by bypassing bus
communication in the NSS module if we run inside of dbus-daemon. To make this
work we keep a bit of extra state in /run/systemd/dynamic-uid/ so that we don't
have to consult the bus, but can still resolve the names.
Note that the normal codepath continues to be via the bus, so that resolving
works from all mount namespaces and is subject to authentication, as before.
This is a bit dirty, but not too dirty, as dbus daemon is kinda special anyway
for PID 1.
This adds a new boolean setting DynamicUser= to service files. If set, a new
user will be allocated dynamically when the unit is started, and released when
it is stopped. The user ID is allocated from the range 61184..65519. The user
will not be added to /etc/passwd (but an NSS module to be added later should
make it show up in getent passwd).
For now, care should be taken that the service writes no files to disk, since
this might result in files owned by UIDs that might get assigned dynamically to
a different service later on. Later patches will tighten sandboxing in order to
ensure that this cannot happen, except for a few selected directories.
A simple way to test this is:
systemd-run -p DynamicUser=1 /bin/sleep 99999
