Subject: [PATCH v7 0/7] Add support for O_MAYEXEC
Hi,
This seventh patch series do not set __FMODE_EXEC for the sake of
simplicity. A notification feature could be added later if needed. The
handling of all file types is now well defined and tested: by default,
when opening a path, access to a directory is denied (with EISDIR),
access to a regular file depends on the sysctl policy, and access to
other file types (i.e. fifo, device, socket) is denied if there is any
enforced policy. There is new tests covering all these cases (cf.
test_file_types() ).
As requested by Mimi Zohar, I completed the series with one of her
patches for IMA. I also picked Kees Cook's patches to consolidate exec
permission checking into do_filp_open()'s flow.
# Goal of O_MAYEXEC
The goal of this patch series is to enable to control script execution
with interpreters help. A new O_MAYEXEC flag, usable through
openat2(2), is added to enable userspace script interpreters to delegate
to the kernel (and thus the system security policy) the permission to
interpret/execute scripts or other files containing what can be seen as
commands.
A simple system-wide security policy can be enforced by the system
administrator through a sysctl configuration consistent with the mount
points or the file access rights. The documentation patch explains the
prerequisites.
Furthermore, the security policy can also be delegated to an LSM, either
a MAC system or an integrity system. For instance, the new kernel
MAY_OPENEXEC flag closes a major IMA measurement/appraisal interpreter
integrity gap by bringing the ability to check the use of scripts [1].
Other uses are expected, such as for magic-links [2], SGX integration
[3], bpffs [4] or IPE [5].
# Prerequisite of its use
Userspace needs to adapt to take advantage of this new feature. For
example, the PEP 578 [6] (Runtime Audit Hooks) enables Python 3.8 to be
extended with policy enforcement points related to code interpretation,
which can be used to align with the PowerShell audit features.
Additional Python security improvements (e.g. a limited interpreter
withou -c, stdin piping of code) are on their way [7].
# Examples
The initial idea comes from CLIP OS 4 and the original implementation
has been used for more than 12 years:
https://github.com/clipos-archive/clipos4_doc
Chrome OS has a similar approach:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/docs/+/master/security/noexec_shell_scripts.md
Userland patches can be found here:
https://github.com/clipos-archive/clipos4_portage-overlay/search?q=O_MAYEXEC
Actually, there is more than the O_MAYEXEC changes (which matches this search)
e.g., to prevent Python interactive execution. There are patches for
Bash, Wine, Java (Icedtea), Busybox's ash, Perl and Python. There are
also some related patches which do not directly rely on O_MAYEXEC but
which restrict the use of browser plugins and extensions, which may be
seen as scripts too:
https://github.com/clipos-archive/clipos4_portage-overlay/tree/master/www-client
An introduction to O_MAYEXEC was given at the Linux Security Summit
Europe 2018 - Linux Kernel Security Contributions by ANSSI:

The "write xor execute" principle was explained at Kernel Recipes 2018 -

This patch series can be applied on top of v5.8-rc5 . This can be tested
with CONFIG_SYSCTL. I would really appreciate constructive comments on
this patch series.
