From 74d3b20b1b206a76f2cbccc5e09106adf6b5775c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Kuznetsov Date: Wed, 9 Jun 2021 10:17:19 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] cgroup1: don't allow '\n' in renaming commit b7e24eb1caa5f8da20d405d262dba67943aedc42 upstream. cgroup_mkdir() have restriction on newline usage in names: $ mkdir $'/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test\ntest2' mkdir: cannot create directory '/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test\ntest2': Invalid argument But in cgroup1_rename() such check is missed. This allows us to make /proc//cgroup unparsable: $ mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test $ mv /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test $'/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test\ntest2' $ echo $$ > $'/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test\ntest2' $ cat /proc/self/cgroup 11:pids:/ 10:freezer:/ 9:hugetlb:/ 8:cpuset:/ 7:blkio:/user.slice 6:memory:/user.slice 5:net_cls,net_prio:/ 4:perf_event:/ 3:devices:/user.slice 2:cpu,cpuacct:/test test2 1:name=systemd:/ 0::/ Signed-off-by: Alexander Kuznetsov Reported-by: Andrey Krasichkov Acked-by: Dmitry Yakunin Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c b/kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c index a5751784ad74..f6dddb3a8f4a 100644 --- a/kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c +++ b/kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c @@ -820,6 +820,10 @@ static int cgroup1_rename(struct kernfs_node *kn, struct kernfs_node *new_parent struct cgroup *cgrp = kn->priv; int ret; + /* do not accept '\n' to prevent making /proc//cgroup unparsable */ + if (strchr(new_name_str, '\n')) + return -EINVAL; + if (kernfs_type(kn) != KERNFS_DIR) return -ENOTDIR; if (kn->parent != new_parent)
