From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com>
A desirable goal when doing integrity measurements is that they are done
always in the same order across boots, so that the resulting PCR value
becomes predictable and suitable for sealing policies. However, due to
parallel execution of system services at boot, a deterministic order of
measurements is difficult to achieve.
The Integrity Digest Cache is not exempted from this issue. If callers
of digest_cache_get() pass file descriptors of inodes in an unpredictable
order, this very likely will result in reading digest lists in an
unpredictable order too.
Overcome this issue by introducing digest_cache_dir_prefetch() and
digest_cache_dir_lookup_filename(), to sequentially search the digest list
the digest cache will be populated from in the parent directory, instead
of directly accessing it from the full path.
If during the file name search there is no match, read the digest list to
trigger its measurement (if an appropriate policy exists). If there is a
match, attempt to create and initialize the digest cache from the found
file name.
This ensures that measurements are always done in the same order as the
file names stored in the digest cache of the parent directory, regardless
of which digest list was requested. However, the PCR still changes every
time a not yet read digest list is requested. In any case, the possible PCR
values are more manageable than in the unpredictable file access case, at
most the number of digest lists. Of course, PCR values further change when
digest lists are added/removed to/from the parent directory, or if the
parent directory itself is modified through securityfs.
The prefetching mechanism has been designed to be more like a aid to get
predictable measurements, and does not defend against path change attacks.
It assumes that the path does not change between retrieving the digest
cache associated to an inode and prefetching (i.e. the prefetching
mechanism gets the same digest cache). If the path changed, and the
prefetching mechanism retrieved a different digest cache,
digest_cache_get() still continues to use the one it retrieved, and will
ignore the prefetched one.
Prefetching is enabled by setting the newly introduced
'security.dig_prefetch' xattr to '1'. digest_cache_new() and
digest_cache_dir_create() call digest_cache_prefetch_requested() to check
it. They pass the check result to digest_cache_create(), which in turn sets
the DIR_PREFETCH and FILE_PREFETCH bit respectively in the parent directory
and regular file digest cache.
On subsequent calls to digest_cache_prefetch_requested(), the latter can
just test for DIR_PREFETCH bit (faster).
digest_cache_get(), after digest cache creation, checks if the digest cache
has the FILE_PREFETCH bit set and, if yes, calls
digest_cache_dir_prefetch() to do prefetching. For just reading digest
lists, digest_cache_dir_prefetch() asks digest_cache_create() to create
special digest caches with the FILE_READ bit set, so that
digest_cache_populate() does not attempt to extract digests. The special
digest caches also are not attached to the corresponding inode.
