Subject: [PATCH] CVE-2019-5736 (runC): rexec callers as memfd
|
|
MIME-Version: 1.0
|
|
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
|

|
|
Adam Iwaniuk and Borys Popławski discovered that an attacker can compromise the
|
|
runC host binary from inside a privileged runC container. As a result, this
|
|
could be exploited to gain root access on the host. runC is used as the default
|
|
runtime for containers with Docker, containerd, Podman, and CRI-O.
|
|
|
|
The attack can be made when attaching to a running container or when starting a
|
|
container running a specially crafted image. For example, when runC attaches
|
|
to a container the attacker can trick it into executing itself. This could be
|
|
done by replacing the target binary inside the container with a custom binary
|
|
pointing back at the runC binary itself. As an example, if the target binary
|
|
was /bin/bash, this could be replaced with an executable script specifying the
|
|
interpreter path #!/proc/self/exe (/proc/self/exec is a symbolic link created
|
|
by the kernel for every process which points to the binary that was executed
|
|
for that process). As such when /bin/bash is executed inside the container,
|
|
instead the target of /proc/self/exe will be executed - which will point to the
|
|
runc binary on the host. The attacker can then proceed to write to the target
|
|
of /proc/self/exe to try and overwrite the runC binary on the host. However in
|
|
general, this will not succeed as the kernel will not permit it to be
|
|
overwritten whilst runC is executing. To overcome this, the attacker can
|
|
instead open a file descriptor to /proc/self/exe using the O_PATH flag and then
|
|
proceed to reopen the binary as O_WRONLY through /proc/self/fd/<nr> and try to
|
|
write to it in a busy loop from a separate process. Ultimately it will succeed
|
|
when the runC binary exits. After this the runC binary is compromised and can
|
|
be used to attack other containers or the host itself.
|
|
|
|
This attack is only possible with privileged containers since it requires root
|
|
privilege on the host to overwrite the runC binary. Unprivileged containers
|
|
with a non-identity ID mapping do not have the permission to write to the host
|
|
binary and therefore are unaffected by this attack.
|
|
|
|
LXC is also impacted in a similar manner by this vulnerability, however as the
|
|
LXC project considers privileged containers to be unsafe no CVE has been
|
|
assigned for this issue for LXC. Quoting from the
|
|
https://linuxcontainers.org/lxc/security/ project's Security information page:
|
|
|
|
"As privileged containers are considered unsafe, we typically will not consider
|
|
new container escape exploits to be security issues worthy of a CVE and quick
|
|
fix. We will however try to mitigate those issues so that accidental damage to
|
|
the host is prevented."
|
|
|
|
To prevent this attack, LXC has been patched to create a temporary copy of the
|
|
calling binary itself when it starts or attaches to containers. To do this LXC
|
|
creates an anonymous, in-memory file using the memfd_create() system call and
|
|
copies itself into the temporary in-memory file, which is then sealed to
|
|
prevent further modifications. LXC then executes this sealed, in-memory file
|
|
instead of the original on-disk binary. Any compromising write operations from
|
|
a privileged container to the host LXC binary will then write to the temporary
|
|
in-memory binary and not to the host binary on-disk, preserving the integrity
|
|
of the host LXC binary. Also as the temporary, in-memory LXC binary is sealed,
|
|
writes to this will also fail.
|
|
|
|
Note: memfd_create() was added to the Linux kernel in the 3.17 release.
