[PATCH v4 07/14] ima: restrict upload of converted digest lists

From: Roberto Sassu
Date: Fri Jun 14 2019 - 14:07:48 EST


If digest lists cannot be directly parsed by the kernel, access to the
securityfs file must be exclusively granted to the parser, to avoid that an
arbitrary process makes undesired modifications before uploading converted
lists to IMA. Digest lists are measured before they are converted and no
new measurement is taken after conversion.

This patch introduces ima_check_set_parser(), to verify whether the process
opening the interface to upload digest lists is the user space parser. It
checks whether the digest of the executable is found in a digest list and
if the type of found digest is COMPACT_PARSER.

It also introduces ima_set_parser() and ima_get_parser() to return the
task_struct of the process that opened digest_list_data. This will be used
to determine whether digest lists have been measured/appraised and, if not,
to prevent their usage.
