This bug prevents setting IMA measurements and appraisal options per fsuuid. This commit has been cc'd to upstream stable. However, it has not yet been applied to Artful, since upstream 4.13 is EOL. == Fix == 36447456e1cc ("ima/policy: fix parsing of fsuuid") == Regression Potential == Low. This patch has also been sent to upstream stable, so it has had additional upstream review. == Test Case == A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter. The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug. Linux kernel version 4.13 has a bug in IMA policy parsing that prevents setting IMA measurements and appraisal options per fsuuid. The issue can be reproduced with simple ima_policy: # fsuuid=$(blkid -s UUID -o value /dev/sda1) # cat > ima_policy << EOF dont_appraise fsuuid=$fsuuid dont_measure fsuuid=$fsuuid EOF # cat ima_policy > /sys/kernel/security/ima/policy cat: write error: Invalid argument # dmesg | tail [ 928.069606] audit: type=1805 audit(1521031959.907:18): action="dont_appraise" fsuuid="aef88a4e-dbea-4cc7-be8b-03cf8501cc8f" res=0 [ 928.069895] audit: type=1802 audit(1521031959.908:19): pid=1806 uid=0 auid=0 ses=1 op="update_policy" cause="invalid-policy" comm="cat" res=0 [ 928.070829] IMA: policy update failed [ 928.070860] audit: type=1802 audit(1521031959.909:20): pid=1806 uid=0 auid=0 ses=1 op="policy_update" cause="failed" comm="cat" res=0 The same policy can be successfully loaded on v4.10: (v4.10) # dmesg | tail [ 54.071383] IMA: policy update completed [ 54.071484] kauditd_printk_skb: 1 callbacks suppressed [ 54.071487] audit: type=1805 audit(1521030962.958:15): action="dont_appraise" fsuuid="aef88a4e-dbea-4cc7-be8b-03cf8501cc8f" res=1 [ 54.071491] audit: type=1805 audit(1521030962.958:16): action="dont_measure" fsuuid="aef88a4e-dbea-4cc7-be8b-03cf8501cc8f" res=1 [ 54.071493] audit: type=1802 audit(1521030962.958:17): pid=1793 uid=0 auid=0 ses=1 op="policy_update" cause="completed" comm="cat" res=1 The bug is fixed in the mainline kernel: [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/security/integrity/ima/ima_policy.c?id=36447456e1cca853188505f2a964dbbeacfc7a7a --- AlsaDevices: total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 1 Mar 14 12:37 seq crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Mar 14 12:37 timer AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.15 Architecture: amd64 ArecordDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory AudioDevicesInUse: Error: command ['fuser', '-v', '/dev/snd/seq', '/dev/snd/timer'] failed with exit code 1: DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 IwConfig: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Lsusb: Error: command ['lsusb'] failed with exit code 1: MachineType: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) Package: linux (not installed) PciMultimedia: ProcFB: ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.13.0-36-generic root=UUID=aef88a4e-dbea-4cc7-be8b-03cf8501cc8f ro console=tty1 console=ttyS0 crashkernel=384M-2G:128M,2G-:256M ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.13.0-36.40~16.04.1-generic 4.13.13 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-4.13.0-36-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-4.13.0-36-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.157.17 RfKill: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Tags: xenial uec-images Uname: Linux 4.13.0-36-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: pkcs11 _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 04/01/2014 dmi.bios.vendor: SeaBIOS dmi.bios.version: Ubuntu-1.8.2-1ubuntu1 dmi.chassis.type: 1 dmi.chassis.vendor: QEMU dmi.chassis.version: pc-i440fx-xenial dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnSeaBIOS:bvrUbuntu-1.8.2-1ubuntu1:bd04/01/2014:svnQEMU:pnStandardPC(i440FX+PIIX,1996):pvrpc-i440fx-xenial:cvnQEMU:ct1:cvrpc-i440fx-xenial: dmi.product.name: Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) dmi.product.version: pc-i440fx-xenial dmi.sys.vendor: QEMU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1755804/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
