Special files should be handled by the guest os. +Unix domain socket files are also special files, and they are handled by the guest OS in their entirety, and the 9p server in qemu assigns them individual inodes so they are safe to open. But they must be opened so their fd can be passed to the appropriate connect() or bind() function so the OS can use them. +Socket files don't have a traditional read or write functionality, they are mere representatives for a local address. +There is no convention for where domain socket files should go, so there is no easy fix by just creating a tmpfs somewhere. +We also see other workloads and services failing for not being able to open their local socket files. + +The analysis of CVE-2023-2861 in detail reveals +- opening of device files through the 9p server directly grants access to read/write functions of those device files. Also device files can be created in-place anywhere. +- opening of FIFOs is somewhat unsafe as long as there are possible collisions that could expose host data using read/write. +- opening of sockets is safe because the 9p server protects the revealed inode and provides no way to connect the file to a socket. + +Thank you for the report. + +Given that this is an upstream regression and there is a related upstream bug about it, I believe it's best to wait for their input/feedback before moving forward. + +------- Comment From <email address hidden> 2024-05-24 04:00 EDT------- +There's absolutely no movement upstream- + +Hi, + +I took some time today to take a closer look into this issue. I wanted to determine whether this was coming from something that we did, or some upstream change. Here are my findings: + +1) This is not architecture-specific. I can reproduce the problem (thanks for the script, btw!) on s390x and amd64. This was somewhat expected because we're talking about an issue affecting a filesystem here, but it's good to be able to confirm. + +2) This issue was *not* happening 6.2+dfsg-2ubuntu6.15, and started happening afterwards. This confirms that this is indeed a regression introduced by the upload of 6.2+dfsg-2ubuntu6.16 (which was a security upload). + +3) Ultimately, this is a security regression and will need to be handled by our Security team. I will get in touch with them. Unfortunately, although this is a regression that comes from upstream, I don't see much interest from their part in fixing problems with 9pfs. I will leave a comment in the upstream bug report to see if it generates any movement. + +Thanks. + +This is the upstream commit which introduced the change in behaviour: + +https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/commit/f6b0de53fb87ddefed348a39284c8e2f28dc4eda + +There is no subsequent fix to the new restrictions, and the only more recent commit is one to deprecate the whole proxy backend: + +https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/commit/71d72ececa086114df80fe4cc04d701b59002eb2 + +I will investigate whether we can relax the restrictions to allow sockets. + +FWIW, I built QEMU with a proposed fix here: + +https://launchpad.net/~sergiodj/+archive/ubuntu/qemu-9pfs-fix + +It passes the testcase provided in the bug description. I'd still like to hear Marc's opinion here as the Security team person, but at least we have a possible fix. + +Cheers, + +------- Comment From <email address hidden> 2024-06-03 04:09 EDT------- +(In reply to comment #13) +> FWIW, I built QEMU with a proposed fix here: +> +> https://launchpad.net/~sergiodj/+archive/ubuntu/qemu-9pfs-fix +> +> It passes the testcase provided in the bug description.
