Description Martin Pitt 2010-04-06 09:32:12 UTC
Original bug: http://bugs.debian.org/576687


udisks exports the device-mapper table data to udev. This data includes encryption keys.

| E:UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_COUNT=1
| E:UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_TYPE=crypt
| E:UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_START=0
| E:UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_LENGTH=1467585
| E:UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_PARAMS=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256\x20XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\x200\x208:5\x200

UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_PARAMS includes the complete table entry, in case of the crypt target this includes the key and iv type.


udisks only needs UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_PARAMS for UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_TYPE == "linear", and is only interested in the major/minor of the device and the offset.

So we should drop the key information for UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_TYPE == "crypt" or only explicitly set major/minor/offset, and/or not set UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_TYPE for anything != "linear".

I committed a test for this, which fails right now:

How about just keeping it for linear mappings for the time being? In the future we can keep it for other device mapper targets as well - for example, we want this data for multipath in order to display state about each path etc. etc. etc.
Comment 3 Martin Pitt 2010-04-06 14:08:09 UTC
Before I go and touch any code, I added a new test case which exercises this code path by ensuring that DM partitions (kpartx'ed on a LV) have a correct PartitionSlave property (it involves parsing UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_PARAMS and various DM_* properties). When I disable the UDISKS_DM_TARGETS_PARAMS reading in udisks-part-id, this test case fails.

Works for me. Now that I have test cases for both ends, I'll work on that tomorrow (bedtime now).

Thanks!

David, I think it's worth pushing out an 1.0.1 with this fix (I also made a couple of other fixes in trunk). Or do you want to wait for the CVE to arrive? (Someone requested one, as far as I understood from #udev).

Re: [oss-security] CVE Request -- udisks v1.0.0 -- (serious)information disclosure
Please use CVE-2010-1149 for this.
Thanks.
