* udp,pasta: Periodically scan for ports to automatically forwardDavid Gibson2023-11-191-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pasta supports automatic port forwarding, where we look for listening sockets in /proc/net (in both namespace and outside) and establish port forwarding to match. For TCP we do this scan both at initial startup, then periodically thereafter. For UDP however, we currently only scan at start. So unlike TCP we won't update forwarding to handle services that start after pasta has begun. There's no particular reason for that, other than that we didn't implement it. So, remove that difference, by scanning for new UDP forwards periodically too. The logic is basically identical to that for TCP, but it needs some changes to handle the mildly different data structures in the UDP case.

* conf, pasta: With --config-net, copy all addresses by defaultStefano Brivio2023-05-231-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the newly-introduced NL_DUP mode for nl_addr() to copy all the addresses associated to the template interface in the outer namespace, unless --no-copy-addrs (also implied by -a) is given. This option is introduced as deprecated right away: it's not expected to be of any use, but it's helpful to keep it around for a while to debug any suspected issue with this change. This is done mostly for consistency with routes. It might partially cover the issue at: https://bugs.passt.top/show_bug.cgi?id=47 Support multiple addresses per address family for some use cases, but not the originally intended one: we'll still use a single outbound address (unless the routing table specifies different preferred source addresses depending on the destination), regardless of the address used in the target namespace.

* conf: Don't exit if sourced default route has no gatewayStefano Brivio2023-05-231-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we use a template interface without a gateway on the default route, we can still offer almost complete functionality, except that, of course, we can't map the gateway address to the outer namespace or host, and that we have no obvious server address or identifier for use in DHCP's siaddr and option 54 (Server identifier, mandatory). Continue, if we have a default route but no default gateway, and imply --no-map-gw and --no-dhcp in that case. NDP responder and DHCPv6 should be able to work as usual because we require a link-local address to be present, and we'll fall back to that. Together with the previous commits implementing an actual copy of routes from the outer namespace, this should finally fix the operation of 'pasta --config-net' for cases where we have a default route on the host, but no default gateway, as it's the case for tap-style routes, including typical Wireguard endpoints.

* conf: Allow binding to ports on an interface without a specific addressStefano Brivio2023-03-291-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Somebody might want to bind listening sockets to a specific interface, but not a specific address, and there isn't really a reason to prevent that. For example: -t %eth0/2022 Alternatively, we support options such as -t 0.0.0.0%eth0/2022 and -t ::%eth0/2022, but not together, for the same port.

* conf, icmp, tcp, udp: Add options to bind to outbound address and interfaceStefano Brivio2023-03-091-2/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I didn't notice earlier: libslirp (and slirp4netns) supports binding outbound sockets to specific IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, to force the source addresse selection. If we want to claim feature parity, we should implement that as well. Further, Podman supports specifying outbound interfaces as well, but this is simply done by resolving the primary address for an interface when the network back-end is started. However, since kernel version 5.7, commit c427bfec18f2 ("net: core: enable SO_BINDTODEVICE for non-root users"), we can actually bind to a specific interface name, which doesn't need to be validated in advance. Implement -o / --outbound ADDR to bind to IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, and --outbound-if4 and --outbound-if6 to bind IPv4 and IPv6 sockets to given interfaces. Given that it probably makes little sense to select addresses and routes from interfaces different than the ones given for outbound sockets, also assign those as "template" interfaces, by default, unless explicitly overridden by '-i'. For ICMP and UDP, we call sock_l4() to open outbound sockets, as we already needed to bind to given ports or echo identifiers, and we can bind() a socket only once: there, pass address (if any) and interface (if any) for the existing bind() and setsockopt() calls. For TCP, in general, we wouldn't otherwise bind sockets. Add a specific helper to do that. For UDP outbound sockets, we need to know if the final destination of the socket is a loopback address, before we decide whether it makes sense to bind the socket at all: move the block mangling the address destination before the creation of the socket in the IPv4 path. This was already the case for the IPv6 path. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* conf: Bind inbound ports with CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE before isolate_user()Stefano Brivio2022-10-151-7/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Even if CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE is granted, we'll lose the capability in the target user namespace as we isolate the process, which means we're unable to bind to low ports at that point. Bind inbound ports, and only those, before isolate_user(). Keep the handling of outbound ports (for pasta mode only) after the setup of the namespace, because that's where we'll bind them. To this end, initialise the netlink socket for the init namespace before isolate_user() as well, as we actually need to know the addresses of the upstream interface before binding ports, in case they're not explicitly passed by the user. As we now call nl_sock_init() twice, checking its return code from conf() twice looks a bit heavy: make it exit(), instead, as we can't do much if we don't have netlink sockets. While at it: - move the v4_only && v6_only options check just after the first option processing loop, as this is more strictly related to option parsing proper - update the man page, explaining that CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE is *not* the preferred way to bind ports, because passt and pasta can be abused to allow other processes to make effective usage of it.

We could choose to run in foreground, but this takes away the convenient synchronisation mechanism derived from forking to background when interfaces are ready. Add optional logging to file with -l/--log-file and --log-size. Unfortunately, this means we need to duplicate features that are more appropriately implemented by a system logger, such as rotation. Keep that reasonably simple, by using fallocate() with range collapsing where supported (Linux kernel >= 3.15, extent-based ext4 and XFS) and falling back to an unsophisticated block-by-block moving of entries toward the beginning of the file once we reach the (mandatory) size limit.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | check_root() both checks to see if we are root (in the init namespace), and if we are drops to an unprivileged user. To make future cleanups simpler, split the checking for root (now in check_root()) from the actual dropping of privilege (now in drop_root()). Note that this does slightly alter semantics. Previously we would only setuid() if we were originally root (in the init namespace). Now we will always setuid() and setgid(), though it won't actually change anything if we weren't privileged to begin with. This also means that we will now always attempt to switch to the user specified with --runas, even if we aren't (init namespace) root to begin with. Obviously this will fail with an error if we weren't privileged to start with. --help and the man page are updated accordingly. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

Alternatively a full path to a netns can be given. The --nsrun-dir option allows the user to change the standard path where netns names are resolved. However, there's no real point to this, if the user wants to override the location of the netns, they can just as easily use the full path to specify the netns.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A lot of tests and examples invoke qemu with the command "kvm". However, as far as I can tell, "kvm" being aliased to the appropriate qemu system binary is Debian specific. The binary names from qemu upstream - qemu-system-$ARCH - also aren't universal, but they are more common (they should be good for both Debian and Fedora at least). In order to still get KVM acceleration when available, we use the option "-M accel=kvm:tcg" to tell qemu to try using either KVM or TCG in that order A number of the places we invoked "kvm" are expecting specifically an x86 guest, and so it's also safer to explicitly invoke qemu-system-x86_64. Some others appear to be independent of the target arch (just wanting the same arch as the host to allow KVM acceleration). Although I suspect there may be more subtle x86 specific options in the qemu command lines, attempt to preserve arch independence by using $(uname -m).

This can be enabled with the new --dns-forward option. This implies that sourcing and using DNS addresses and search lists, passed via command line or read from /etc/resolv.conf, is not bound anymore to DHCP/DHCPv6/NDP usage: for example, pasta users might just want to use addresses from /etc/resolv.conf as mapping target, while not passing DNS options via DHCP. Reflect this in all the involved code paths by differentiating DHCP/DHCPv6/NDP usage from DNS configuration per se, and in the new options --dhcp-dns, --dhcp-search for pasta, and --no-dhcp-dns, --no-dhcp-search for passt. This should be the last bit to enable substantial compatibility between slirp4netns.sh and slirp4netns(1): pass the --dns-forward option from the script too.

* passt, pasta: Namespace-based sandboxing, defer seccomp policy applicationStefano Brivio2022-02-211-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To reach (at least) a conceptually equivalent security level as implemented by --enable-sandbox in slirp4netns, we need to create a new mount namespace and pivot_root() into a new (empty) mountpoint, so that passt and pasta can't access any filesystem resource after initialisation. While at it, also detach IPC, PID (only for passt, to prevent vulnerabilities based on the knowledge of a target PID), and UTS namespaces. With this approach, if we apply the seccomp filters right after the configuration step, the number of allowed syscalls grows further. To prevent this, defer the application of seccomp policies after the initialisation phase, before the main loop, that's where we expect bad things to happen, potentially. This way, we get back to 22 allowed syscalls for passt and 34 for pasta, on x86_64. While at it, move #syscalls notes to specific code paths wherever it conceptually makes sense. We have to open all the file handles we'll ever need before sandboxing: - the packet capture file can only be opened once, drop instance numbers from the default path and use the (pre-sandbox) PID instead - /proc/net/tcp{,v6} and /proc/net/udp{,v6}, for automatic detection of bound ports in pasta mode, are now opened only once, before sandboxing, and their handles are stored in the execution context - the UNIX domain socket for passt is also bound only once, before sandboxing: to reject clients after the first one, instead of closing the listening socket, keep it open, accept and immediately discard new connection if we already have a valid one Clarify the (unchanged) behaviour for --netns-only in the man page. To actually make passt and pasta processes run in a separate PID namespace, we need to unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) before forking to background (if configured to do so). Introduce a small daemon() implementation, __daemon(), that additionally saves the PID file before forking. While running in foreground, the process itself can't move to a new PID namespace (a process can't change the notion of its own PID): mention that in the man page. For some reason, fork() in a detached PID namespace causes SIGTERM and SIGQUIT to be ignored, even if the handler is still reported as SIG_DFL: add a signal handler that just exits. We can now drop most of the pasta_child_handler() implementation, that took care of terminating all processes running in the same namespace, if pasta started a shell: the shell itself is now the init process in that namespace, and all children will terminate once the init process exits. Issuing 'echo $$' in a detached PID namespace won't return the actual namespace PID as seen from the init namespace: adapt demo and test setup scripts to reflect that.

* passt: Fork into background also if not running from a terminalStefano Brivio2021-10-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | This is actually annoying: there's no way to make it fork into background when running from a script. However, it's always possible to keep it in foreground with -f. Make it simpler, and always fork into background if -f is not given. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* LICENSES: Add license text files, add missing notices, fix SPDX tagsStefano Brivio2021-10-201-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | SPDX tags don't replace license files. Some notices were missing and some tags were not according to the SPDX specification, too. Now reuse --lint from the REUSE tool (https://reuse.software/) passes. Reported-by: Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
