Re: [libvirt] PATCH 0/5: connection cloning support (WIP)

Hi Daniel - When I apply these patches, I'm seeing segfaults on event delivery when just running the existing synchronous examples/domain-events/events-c/event-test.c (using the remote driver). I've added a little debug. Apparently event->name is being NULLed out sometime after the event is put on the queue: DEBUG: remote_internal.c: remoteDomainEventFired (Event fired 0 3 1 1) DEBUG: remote_internal.c: processCallRecv (Do 4 0) DEBUG: remote_internal.c: processCallRecvLen (Got length, now need 64 total (60 more)) DEBUG: remote_internal.c: processCallRecv (Do 64 4) DEBUG: remote_internal.c: processCallAsyncEvent (Encountered an event while waiting for a response) DEBUG: remote_internal.c: get_nonnull_domain (domain.name: dsl) DEBUG: datatypes.c: virGetDomain (New hash entry 0x804c728) DEBUG: domain_event.c: virDomainEventNew (event: 0x804c770 ->name: dsl) DEBUG: libvirt.c: virDomainFree (domain=0x804c728) DEBUG: datatypes.c: virUnrefDomain (unref domain 0x804c728 dsl 1) DEBUG: datatypes.c: virReleaseDomain (release domain 0x804c728 dsl) DEBUG: datatypes.c: virReleaseDomain (unref connection 0x804b040 4) DEBUG: domain_event.c: virDomainEventQueuePush (event: 0x804c770 ->name: dsl) DEBUG: remote_internal.c: processCallRecv (Do 0 0) DEBUG: remote_internal.c: remoteDomainEventQueueFlush () DEBUG: domain_event.c: virDomainEventDispatchDefaultFunc (event: 0x804c770 ->name: (null)) virGetDomain: name is NULL Segmentation fault I'll continue looking into it.

[libvirt] [SECURITY] PATCH: Fix missing read-only access checks (CVE-2008-5086)
by Daniel P. Berrange 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

The following methods in libvirt.c are missing a check against the read-only connection flag: virDomainMigrate virDomainMigratePrepare virDomainMigratePerform virDomainMigrateFinish virDomainMigratePrepare2 virDomainMigrateFinish2 virDomainBlockPeek virDomainMemoryPeek virDomainSetAutostart virNetworkSetAutostart virConnectFindStoragePoolSources virStoragePoolSetAutostart If using PolicyKit auth, the default policy will allow any local user to make a read-only connection to the libvirtd daemon without needing authentication. If not using PolicyKit, the default libvirtd.conf configuration settings will allow an unprivileged user to make a read-only connection to the libvirtd daemon without needing authentication. Thus out of the box unprivileged local users may be able to migrate VMs, set or unset the autostart flag for domains, networks & storage pools, and access privileged data in the VM memory, or disks. All TCP remote connections are read-write, and default settings require full authentication, thus remote access is not impacted by this flaw. Administrators can apply a workaround by editting /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf to explicitly set 'unix_sock_ro_perms' parameter to '0700'. Restart the libvirtd daemon after making this change. The first vulnerable release was 0.3.2, where the virDomainMigrate API was added for the Xen driver. Other APIs were added in various subsequent releases depending on the hypervisor driver in question. The attached patch has been committed to CVS, and OS distributors are recommended to apply this patch to all existing releases shipped. It was diff'd against current CVS head, and applies against 0.5.1, and is trivially re-diffable for all earlier releases. This flaw has been assigned the identifier CVE-2008-5086 Daniel diff --git a/src/libvirt.c b/src/libvirt.c --- a/src/libvirt.c +++ b/src/libvirt.c @@ -2296,6 +2296,16 @@ virDomainMigrate (virDomainPtr domain, conn = domain->conn; /* Source connection. */ if (!VIR_IS_CONNECT (dconn)) { virLibConnError (conn, VIR_ERR_INVALID_CONN, __FUNCTION__); + return NULL; + } + + if (domain->conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibDomainError(domain, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return NULL; + } + if (dconn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + /* NB, delibrately report error against source object, not dest here */ + virLibDomainError(domain, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); return NULL; } @@ -2426,6 +2436,11 @@ virDomainMigratePrepare (virConnectPtr d return -1; } + if (dconn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibConnError(dconn, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return -1; + } + if (dconn->driver->domainMigratePrepare) return dconn->driver->domainMigratePrepare (dconn, cookie, cookielen, uri_in, uri_out, @@ -2457,6 +2472,11 @@ virDomainMigratePerform (virDomainPtr do } conn = domain->conn; + if (domain->conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibDomainError(domain, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return -1; + } + if (conn->driver->domainMigratePerform) return conn->driver->domainMigratePerform (domain, cookie, cookielen, uri, @@ -2482,6 +2502,11 @@ virDomainMigrateFinish (virConnectPtr dc if (!VIR_IS_CONNECT (dconn)) { virLibConnError (NULL, VIR_ERR_INVALID_CONN, __FUNCTION__); + return NULL; + } + + if (dconn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibConnError(dconn, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); return NULL; } @@ -2517,6 +2542,11 @@ virDomainMigratePrepare2 (virConnectPtr return -1; } + if (dconn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibConnError(dconn, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return -1; + } + if (dconn->driver->domainMigratePrepare2) return dconn->driver->domainMigratePrepare2 (dconn, cookie, cookielen, uri_in, uri_out, @@ -2547,6 +2577,11 @@ virDomainMigrateFinish2 (virConnectPtr d return NULL; } + if (dconn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibConnError(dconn, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return NULL; + } + if (dconn->driver->domainMigrateFinish2) return dconn->driver->domainMigrateFinish2 (dconn, dname, cookie, cookielen, @@ -2905,6 +2940,11 @@ virDomainBlockPeek (virDomainPtr dom, } conn = dom->conn; + if (dom->conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibDomainError(dom, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return (-1); + } + if (!path) { virLibDomainError (dom, VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG, _("path is NULL")); @@ -2980,6 +3020,11 @@ virDomainMemoryPeek (virDomainPtr dom, } conn = dom->conn; + if (dom->conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibDomainError(dom, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return (-1); + } + /* Flags must be VIR_MEMORY_VIRTUAL at the moment. * * Note on access to physical memory: A VIR_MEMORY_PHYSICAL flag is @@ -3246,6 +3291,11 @@ virDomainSetAutostart(virDomainPtr domai } conn = domain->conn; + + if (domain->conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibDomainError(domain, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return (-1); + } if (conn->driver->domainSetAutostart) return conn->driver->domainSetAutostart (domain, autostart); @@ -4197,6 +4247,11 @@ virNetworkSetAutostart(virNetworkPtr net return (-1); } + if (network->conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibNetworkError(network, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return (-1); + } + conn = network->conn; if (conn->networkDriver && conn->networkDriver->networkSetAutostart) @@ -4395,6 +4450,11 @@ virConnectFindStoragePoolSources(virConn return NULL; } + if (conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibConnError(conn, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return NULL; + } + if (conn->storageDriver && conn->storageDriver->findPoolSources) return conn->storageDriver->findPoolSources(conn, type, srcSpec, flags); @@ -5068,6 +5128,11 @@ virStoragePoolSetAutostart(virStoragePoo return (-1); } + if (pool->conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) { + virLibStoragePoolError(pool, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED, __FUNCTION__); + return (-1); + } + conn = pool->conn; if (conn->storageDriver && conn->storageDriver->poolSetAutostart) -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|

[libvirt] libvirt and 192.168.122.0/24
by H. Peter Anvin 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

I'm kind of wondering why libvirt defaults to 192.168.122.0/24 by default. It is a piece of address space which is relatively likely to conflict with address space used in the environment surrounding the machine. Since libvirtd is on by default if installed, this is particularly problematic. I would like to suggest either one of the following as default address space, unless the user has explicitly configured otherwise: 192.0.2.0/24 - reserved as "test and example network" 198.18.0.0/15 - reserved as "benchmark test network" See RFC 3330 and RFC 2544 for the definitions of these networks. Both of them are "should not appear on the public Internet" address blocks, and much less likely than the RFC 1918 address block (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16) to be encountered "in the wild" by a user. -hpa

[libvirt] [PATCH] 4/8 convert virterror to the logging infrastructure
by Daniel Veillard 17 Dec '08

17 Dec '08

Basically having the debug information in one place and the errors in another place is not very helpful, so this plugs the virterror handling into the logging routine. mostly a bit of refactoring, and calling virLogMessage. Just that we pass an extra flag to virLogMessage stating it comes from the error handling level to avoid outputting the error twice on stderr in case where there is no output defined.
