When a DNS resolver key is instantiated with an error indication, attempts to
read that key will result in an oops because user_read() is expecting there to
be a payload - and there isn't one [CVE-2011-1076].
Give the DNS resolver key its own read handler that returns the error cached in
key->type_data.x[0] as an error rather than crashing.
Also make the kenter() at the beginning of dns_resolver_instantiate() limit the
amount of data it prints, since the data is not necessarily NUL-terminated.
The buggy code was added in:

Subject: DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]
This can trivially be reproduced by any user with the following program
compiled with -lkeyutils:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <keyutils.h>
#include <err.h>
static char payload[] = "#dnserror=6";
int main()
{
key_serial_t key;
key = add_key("dns_resolver", "a", payload, sizeof(payload),
KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING);
if (key == -1)
err(1, "add_key");
if (keyctl_read(key, NULL, 0) == -1)
err(1, "read_key");
return 0;
}
What should happen is that keyctl_read() reports error 6 (ENXIO) to the user:
dns-break: read_key: No such device or address
but instead the kernel oopses.
This cannot be reproduced with the 'keyutils add' or 'keyutils padd' commands
as both of those cut the data down below the NUL termination that must be
included in the data. Without this dns_resolver_instantiate() will return
-EINVAL and the key will not be instantiated such that it can be read.
The oops looks like:

|
OVERVIEW
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
The DNS resolver module provides a way for kernel services to make DNS queries
|
|
by way of requesting a key of key type dns_resolver. These queries are
|
|
upcalled to userspace through /sbin/request-key.
|
|
|
|
These routines must be supported by userspace tools dns.upcall, cifs.upcall and
|
|
request-key. It is under development and does not yet provide the full feature
|
|
set. The features it does support include:
|
|
|
|
(*) Implements the dns_resolver key_type to contact userspace.
|
|
|
|
It does not yet support the following AFS features:
|
|
|
|
(*) Dns query support for AFSDB resource record.
|
|
|
|
This code is extracted from the CIFS filesystem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
===========
|
|
COMPILATION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
The module should be enabled by turning on the kernel configuration options:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_DNS_RESOLVER - tristate "DNS Resolver support"
|
|
|
|
|
|
==========
|
|
SETTING UP
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
To set up this facility, the /etc/request-key.conf file must be altered so that
|
|
/sbin/request-key can appropriately direct the upcalls. For example, to handle
|
|
basic dname to IPv4/IPv6 address resolution, the following line should be
|
|
added:
|
|
|
|
#OP TYPE DESC CO-INFO PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ...
|
|
#====== ============ ======= ======= ==========================
|
|
create dns_resolver * * /usr/sbin/cifs.upcall %k
|
|
|
|
To direct a query for query type 'foo', a line of the following should be added
|
|
before the more general line given above as the first match is the one taken.
|
|
|
|
create dns_resolver foo:* * /usr/sbin/dns.foo %k
|
|
|
|
|
|
=====
|
|
USAGE
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
To make use of this facility, one of the following functions that are
|
|
implemented in the module can be called after doing:
|
|
|
|
#include <linux/dns_resolver.h>
|
|
|
|
(1) int dns_query(const char *type, const char *name, size_t namelen,
|
|
const char *options, char **_result, time_t *_expiry);
|
|
|
|
This is the basic access function. It looks for a cached DNS query and if
|
|
it doesn't find it, it upcalls to userspace to make a new DNS query, which
|
|
may then be cached. The key description is constructed as a string of the
|
|
form:
|
|
|
|
[<type>:]<name>
|
|
|
|
where <type> optionally specifies the particular upcall program to invoke,
|
|
and thus the type of query to do, and <name> specifies the string to be
|
|
looked up. The default query type is a straight hostname to IP address
|
|
set lookup.
|
|
|
|
The name parameter is not required to be a NUL-terminated string, and its
|
|
length should be given by the namelen argument.
|
|
|
|
The options parameter may be NULL or it may be a set of options
|
|
appropriate to the query type.
|
|
|
|
The return value is a string appropriate to the query type. For instance,
|
|
for the default query type it is just a list of comma-separated IPv4 and
|
|
IPv6 addresses. The caller must free the result.
|
|
|
|
The length of the result string is returned on success, and a negative
|
|
error code is returned otherwise. -EKEYREJECTED will be returned if the
|
|
DNS lookup failed.
|
|
|
|
If _expiry is non-NULL, the expiry time (TTL) of the result will be
|
|
returned also.
|
|
|
|
|
|
===============================
|
|
READING DNS KEYS FROM USERSPACE
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
Keys of dns_resolver type can be read from userspace using keyctl_read() or
|
|
"keyctl read/print/pipe".
|
|
|
|
|
|
=========
|
|
MECHANISM
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
The dnsresolver module registers a key type called "dns_resolver". Keys of
|
|
this type are used to transport and cache DNS lookup results from userspace.
|
|
|
|
When dns_query() is invoked, it calls request_key() to search the local
|
|
keyrings for a cached DNS result. If that fails to find one, it upcalls to
|
|
userspace to get a new result.
|
|
|
|
Upcalls to userspace are made through the request_key() upcall vector, and are
|
|
directed by means of configuration lines in /etc/request-key.conf that tell
|
|
/sbin/request-key what program to run to instantiate the key.
|
|
|
|
The upcall handler program is responsible for querying the DNS, processing the
|
|
result into a form suitable for passing to the keyctl_instantiate_key()
|
|
routine. This then passes the data to dns_resolver_instantiate() which strips
|
|
off and processes any options included in the data, and then attaches the
|
|
remainder of the string to the key as its payload.
|
|
|
|
The upcall handler program should set the expiry time on the key to that of the
|
|
lowest TTL of all the records it has extracted a result from. This means that
|
|
the key will be discarded and recreated when the data it holds has expired.
|
|
|
|
dns_query() returns a copy of the value attached to the key, or an error if
|
|
that is indicated instead.
|
|
|
|
See <file:Documentation/keys-request-key.txt> for further information about
|
|
request-key function.
