Title:
btrfs send can bypass DAC check with certain capability set
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Expected:
For btrfs tool with certain capabilities set(cap_fowner, cap_sys_admin),
DAC check should not be by-passed when operating on subvol snapshot
What happened instead:
btrfs tool with certain capability(cap_fowner,cap_sys_admin) set can be
used to by-pass DAC check on a snapshot, and gain read access to all files
in a snapshot
steps to reproduce:
as root
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/test.disk bs=1M count=128
# mkfs.btrfs /tmp/test.disk
# mkdir -p /mnt/test
# mount /tmp/test.disk /mnt/test/
# cd /mnt/test
# btrfs subvol create snapshot
# echo "this is a secret" > snapshot/1.secret
# chmod 600 snapshot/1.secret
# btrfs subvol snapshot -r snapshot snapshot-ro
# setcap cap_fowner,cap_sys_admin+eip /bin/btrfs
as non-root
$ cd /mnt/test
$ cat snapshot-ro/1.secret
cat: snapshot-ro/1.secret: Permission denied
$ btrfs send snapshot-ro > /tmp/snap
$ strings /tmp/snap
this is a secret
