commit b305f7ed0f4f494ad6f3ef5667501535d5a8fa31 upstream.
The variable 'context->module.name' may be null pointer when
kmalloc return null, so it's better to check it before using
to avoid null dereference.
Another one more thing this patch does is using kstrdup instead
of (kmalloc + strcpy), and signal a lost record via audit_log_lost.Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.11

Commit 2115bb250f26 ("audit: Use timespec64 to represent audit timestamps")
noted that audit timestamps were not y2038 safe and used a 64-bit
timestamp. In itself, this makes sense but the conversion was from
CURRENT_TIME to ktime_get_real_ts64() which is a heavier call to record
an accurate timestamp which is required in some, but not all, cases. The
impact is that when auditd is running without any rules that all syscalls
have higher overhead. This is visible in the sysbench-thread benchmark as
a 11.5% performance hit. That benchmark is dumb as rocks but it's also
visible in redis as an 8-10% hit on all operations which is of greater
concern. It is somewhat stupid of audit to track syscalls without any
rules related to syscalls but that is how it behaves.The overhead can be directly measured with perf comparing 4.9 with 4.12

This is on a single-socket E3-1230 but similar overheads have been measured
on an older machine which the patch also eliminates.The patch in question has no explanation as to why a fully-accurate timestamp
is required and is likely an oversight. Using a coarser, but monotically
increasing, timestamp the overhead can be eliminated. While it can be
worked around by configuring or disabling audit, it's tricky enough to
detect that a kernel fix is justified. With this patch, we see the following;sysbenchthread

overhead. This is showing that 4.12 took a 11-12% hit but the overhead is

Currently we free fsnotify_mark_connector structure only when inode /
vfsmount is getting freed. This can however impose noticeable memory
overhead when marks get attached to inodes only temporarily. So free the
connector structure once the last mark is detached from the object.
Since notification infrastructure can be working with the connector
under the protection of fsnotify_mark_srcu, we have to be careful and
free the fsnotify_mark_connector only after SRCU period passes.Reviewed-by: Miklos Szeredi

Currently notification marks are attached to object (inode or vfsmnt) by
a hlist_head in the object. The list is also protected by a spinlock in
the object. So while there is any mark attached to the list of marks,
the object must be pinned in memory (and thus e.g. last iput() deleting
inode cannot happen). Also for list iteration in fsnotify() to work, we
must hold fsnotify_mark_srcu lock so that mark itself and
mark->obj_list.next cannot get freed. Thus we are required to wait for
response to fanotify events from userspace process with
fsnotify_mark_srcu lock held. That causes issues when userspace process
is buggy and does not reply to some event - basically the whole
notification subsystem gets eventually stuck.So to be able to drop fsnotify_mark_srcu lock while waiting for
response, we have to pin the mark in memory and make sure it stays in
the object list (as removing the mark waiting for response could lead to
lost notification events for groups later in the list). However we don't
want inode reclaim to block on such mark as that would lead to system
just locking up elsewhere.This commit is the first in the series that paves way towards solving
these conflicting lifetime needs. Instead of anchoring the list of marks
directly in the object, we anchor it in a dedicated structure
(fsnotify_mark_connector) and just point to that structure from the
object. The following commits will also add spinlock protecting the list
and object pointer to the structure.Reviewed-by: Miklos Szeredi

What started as a rather straightforward race condition reported by
Dmitry using the syzkaller fuzzer ended up revealing some major
problems with how the audit subsystem managed its netlink sockets and
its connection with the userspace audit daemon. Fixing this properly
had quite the cascading effect and what we are left with is this rather
large and complicated patch. My initial goal was to try and decompose
this patch into multiple smaller patches, but the way these changes
are intertwined makes it difficult to split these changes into
meaningful pieces that don't break or somehow make things worse for
the intermediate states.The patch makes a number of changes, but the most significant are
highlighted below:* The auditd tracking variables, e.g. audit_sock, are now gone and
replaced by a RCU/spin_lock protected variable auditd_conn which is
a structure containing all of the auditd tracking information.* We no longer track the auditd sock directly, instead we track it
via the network namespace in which it resides and we use the audit
socket associated with that namespace. In spirit, this is what the
code was trying to do prior to this patch (at least I think that is
what the original authors intended), but it was done rather poorly
and added a layer of obfuscation that only masked the underlying
problems.* Big backlog queue cleanup, again. In v4.10 we made some pretty big
changes to how the audit backlog queues work, here we haven't changed
the queue design so much as cleaned up the implementation. Brought
about by the locking changes, we've simplified kauditd_thread() quite
a bit by consolidating the queue handling into a new helper function,
kauditd_send_queue(), which allows us to eliminate a lot of very
similar code and makes the looping logic in kauditd_thread() clearer.* All netlink messages sent to auditd are now sent via
auditd_send_unicast_skb(). Other than just making sense, this makes
the lock handling easier.* Change the audit_log_start() sleep behavior so that we never sleep
on auditd events (unchanged) or if the caller is holding the
audit_cmd_mutex (changed). Previously we didn't sleep if the caller
was auditd or if the message type fell between a certain range; the
type check was a poor effort of doing what the cmd_mutex check now
does. Richard Guy Briggs originally proposed not sleeping the
cmd_mutex owner several years ago but his patch wasn't acceptable
at the time. At least the idea lives on here.* A problem with the lost record counter has been resolved. Steve
Grubb and I both happened to notice this problem and according to
some quick testing by Steve, this problem goes back quite some time.
It's largely a harmless problem, although it may have left some
careful sysadmins quite puzzled.Cc: # 4.10.x-

There is a double fetch problem in audit_log_single_execve_arg()
where we first check the execve(2) argumnets for any "bad" characters
which would require hex encoding and then re-fetch the arguments for
logging in the audit record[1]. Of course this leaves a window of
opportunity for an unsavory application to munge with the data.This patch reworks things by only fetching the argument data once[2]
into a buffer where it is scanned and logged into the audit
records(s). In addition to fixing the double fetch, this patch
improves on the original code in a few other ways: better handling
of large arguments which require encoding, stricter record length
checking, and some performance improvements (completely unverified,
but we got rid of some strlen() calls, that's got to be a good
thing).As part of the development of this patch, I've also created a basic
regression test for the audit-testsuite, the test can be tracked on
GitHub at the following link:* https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-testsuite/issues/25
[1] If you pay careful attention, there is actually a triple fetch
problem due to a strnlen_user() call at the top of the function.[2] This is a tiny white lie, we do make a call to strnlen_user()
prior to fetching the argument data. I don't like it, but due to the
way the audit record is structured we really have no choice unless we
copy the entire argument at once (which would require a rather
wasteful allocation). The good news is that with this patch the
kernel no longer relies on this strnlen_user() value for anything
beyond recording it in the log, we also update it with a trustworthy
value whenever possible.Reported-by: Pengfei Wang

"Two small patches to fix audit problems in 4.7-rcX: the first fixes a
potential kref leak, the second removes some header file noise.The first is an important bug fix that really should go in before 4.7
is released, the second is not critical, but falls into the very-nice-
to-have category so I'm including in the pull request.Both patches are straightforward, self-contained, and pass our
testsuite without problem"* 'stable-4.7' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit:

audit: move calcs after alloc and check when logging set loginuid

The only users of audit_get_tty and audit_put_tty are internal to
audit, so move it out of include/linux/audit.h to kernel.h and create
a proper function rather than inlining it. This also reduces kABI
changes.Suggested-by: Paul Moore

Move the calculations of values after the allocation in case the
allocation fails. This avoids wasting effort in the rare case that it
fails, but more importantly saves us extra logic to release the tty

"Four small audit patches for 4.7.Two are simple cleanups around the audit thread management code, one
adds a tty field to AUDIT_LOGIN events, and the final patch makes
tty_name() usable regardless of CONFIG_TTY.Nothing controversial, and it all passes our regression test"

The tty field was missing from AUDIT_LOGIN events.
Refactor code to create a new function audit_get_tty(), using it to
replace the call in audit_log_task_info() and to add it to
audit_log_set_loginuid(). Lock and bump the kref to protect it, adding
audit_put_tty() alias to decrement it.Signed-off-by: Richard Guy Briggs

"This is one of the larger audit patchsets in recent history,
consisting of eight patches and almost 400 lines of changes.The bulk of the patchset is the new "audit by executable"
functionality which allows admins to set an audit watch based on the
executable on disk. Prior to this, admins could only track an
application by PID, which has some obvious limitations.Beyond the new functionality we also have some refcnt fixes and a few
minor cleanups"* 'upstream' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit:

This adds the ability audit the actions of a not-yet-running process.
This patch implements the ability to filter on the executable path. Instead of
just hard coding the ino and dev of the executable we care about at the moment
the rule is inserted into the kernel, use the new audit_fsnotify
infrastructure to manage this dynamically. This means that if the filename
does not yet exist but the containing directory does, or if the inode in
question is unlinked and creat'd (aka updated) the rule will just continue to
work. If the containing directory is moved or deleted or the filesystem is
unmounted, the rule is deleted automatically. A future enhancement would be to
have the rule survive across directory disruptions.This is a heavily modified version of a patch originally submitted by Eric
Paris with some ideas from Peter Moody.Cc: Peter Moody

The "fix" in commit 0b08c5e5944 ("audit: Fix check of return value of
strnlen_user()") didn't fix anything, it broke things. As reported by
Steven Rostedt:"Yes, strnlen_user() returns 0 on fault, but if you look at what len is
set to, than you would notice that on fault len would be -1"because we just subtracted one from the return value. So testing
against 0 doesn't test for a fault condition, it tests against a
perfectly valid empty string.Also fix up the usual braindamage wrt using WARN_ON() inside a
conditional - make it part of the conditional and remove the explicit
unlikely() (which is already part of the WARN_ON*() logic, exactly so
that you don't have to write unreadable code.Reported-and-tested-by: Steven Rostedt
