breaks with /proc/xen mounted (QubesOS)

[adrelanos]

Using Qubes Debian jessie based AppVM with bubblewrap from jessie-backports (version 0.1.4-2~bpo8+1).

(Neither AppArmor nor grsecurity is being involved.)

Here are instructions on how to reproduce this in Qubes: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2540

A simple test bwrap --ro-bind / / --proc /proc --dev /dev /bin/bash worked for me.

Outside of Qubes, i.e. in a Non-Qubes Debian jessie (VirtualBox) VM sandboxed-tor-browser works fine.

So I guess "something that Qubes does breaks bubblewrap". Could you help us please making this more specific?

I've been advised to:

• Rebuild bubblewrap with strategic debugging instrumentation added.
• Use ptrace/ltrace/gdb to figure out what's actually going on.

Do you know why this is happening? How to fix this? Want any debug output? If you like a rebuild how bubblewrap with debugging enabled, where do you find build instructions?

[marmarek]

Looks like the combination of --unshare-user, --unshare-pid, and --proc /proc is causing this. Test case:

bwrap --ro-bind / /  --unshare-user --unshare-pid   --proc /proc  /bin/bash

If I remove any of those options, /bin/bash is started. Otherwise, it throws an error:

Can't mount proc on /newroot/proc: Operation not permitted

Running with strace doesn't say much more - indeed mount syscall fails with EPERM:

mount("proc", "/newroot/proc", "proc", MS_MGC_VAL|MS_NOSUID|MS_NODEV|MS_NOEXEC, NULL) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)

Any idea?

[alexlarsson]

So, the kernel disallows mounting proc in the user + pid namespace. That is weird. Clearly it has mount capabilieites, because earlier mounts succeeded.

In the upstream kernel, procfs has:

static struct file_system_type proc_fs_type = {
        .name           = "proc",
        .mount          = proc_mount,
        .kill_sb        = proc_kill_sb,
        .fs_flags       = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
};

This flag (FS_USERNS_MOUNT) should allow mounting a new proc instance in a user namespace. Does the qubes kernel change this in any way?

[alexlarsson]

And anyway, the debian build of bubblewrap uses setuid, so it should have capabilities in the parent namespace too. Very weird.

Does qubes itself use namespaces?

[marmarek]

This flag (FS_USERNS_MOUNT) should allow mounting a new proc instance in a user namespace. Does the qubes kernel change this in any way?

No, the kernel is very close to upstream one. Also we don't use namespaces... It's really strange.

I wonder if its related to this: https://lwn.net/Articles/644932/ I.e. maybe your /proc has some mount flag, or some covering mount. How does your /proc/self/mounts look?

I don't have a xen build, but reading the code it seems this is the problem:

xen /proc/xen xenfs rw,relatime 0 0

This is created if you have the XEN_COMPAT_XENFS config on in the kernel, and it is created by:

        proc_mkdir("xen", NULL);

However, as far as I can see in the kernel that isn't enough to make it realize that this is an "empty" directory, and thus the /proc/xen mount is not covering anything. It should really call proc_create_mount_point("xen") for this to work.

Can you try disabling that kernel config option? (or fixing the mountpoint as per the above).

[marmarek]

Indeed after unmounting /proc/xen it does work. I wonder if anything still use /proc/xen in Qubes... AFAIR it's legacy location and the new one is /dev/xen. There were more problems with /proc/xen (where "normal files" behaves like character devices...). The fact that I could unmount it without killing anything suggests it isn't used anymore :)

[cgwalters]

If you want to be conservative, it might work to add a patch to bwrap to unmount it?

[cgwalters]

(Just in the new mount namespace)

[adrelanos]

That sounds awesome! Please do!

[alexlarsson]

No, we can't unmount it. Thats the problem essentially. If /foo and /foo/bar are mountpoints when we create an unprivileged user namespace, then we get the two inherited as a unit, and we cannot unmount /foo/bar, because that may expose files under it that was not visible in the parent namespace. The same actually is true for mounting a new procfs instance, if /proc/foo was overmounted in the host, then we can't mount a fresh /proc, because we can see into foo where we couldn't before.

Of course in some cases we know it is safe, because foo is always empty, because the only reason its there is as a mountpoint. In such cases the kernel marks these directories as "always-empty", and mounts on top of them is not considered to cover anything, thus allowing a fresh proc to be mounted.

Changing proc_mkdir("xen", NULL) to proc_create_mount_point("xen") in the kernel would fix it, as the xen directory is then not considered covered.

[DemiMarie]

@alexlarsson Can we take advantage of the fact that we are suid to forcibly unmount /proc/xen in the child? That does mean hardcoding /proc/xen, but I consider that safe.

[cgwalters]

The suid path isn't the future though. Based on comment https://github.com/projectatomic/bubblewrap/issues/134#issuecomment-271998694 it sounds like Qubes is going to disable the legacy mountpoint which should address this issue, right?

[cgwalters]

A quick git log -G proc.*mkdir.*xen hits this commit which is in 4.10. So - anyone affected, upgrade your kernel.

[DemiMarie]

@cgwalters bwrap is suid at least on my system, and it would be nice to use it to solve this problem.

[DemiMarie]

Also apparently several legacy scripts in Quebes rely on /proc/xen.

[marmarek]

Also apparently several legacy scripts in Quebes rely on /proc/xen.

Not that many. There is only one thing that is still used from that - /proc/xen/capabilities, to detect dom0. Once replaced, we can get rid of /proc/xen mount.

This is still broken as of today in Qubes 3.2 with Fedora 27 template. Notably, it breaks video thumbnailing in Nautilus (and presumably other programs, whose video thumbnails do not show up):
