setuid（）之后失去能力

Question

Trying to set cap_setgid , cap_setuid , cap_setpcap .

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/capability.h>

int main()
{
    cap_t caps;
    caps = cap_get_proc();
    cap_value_t cap_list[2];

    cap_list[0] = CAP_SETUID;
    cap_list[1] = CAP_SETGID;

    cap_set_flag(caps, CAP_EFFECTIVE, 2, cap_list, CAP_SET);
    cap_set_flag(caps, CAP_INHERITABLE, 2, cap_list, CAP_SET);
    cap_set_proc(caps);
    cap_free(caps);
    setgid(65534);
    setuid(65534);

    cap_get_proc();
    setgid(0);
    setuid(0);

    return 0;
}

Execution is going under root user. Tracing the program shows this

capget({_LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION_3, 0}, NULL) = 0
capget({_LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION_3, 0}, {CAP_CHOWN|CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE|CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH|CAP_FOWNER|CAP_FSETID|CAP_KILL|CAP_SETGID|CAP_SETUID|CAP_SETPCAP|CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE|CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE|CAP_NET_BROADCAST|CAP_NET_ADMIN|CAP_NET_RAW|CAP_IPC_LOCK|CAP_IPC_OWNER|CAP_SYS_MODULE|CAP_SYS_RAWIO|CAP_SYS_CHROOT|CAP_SYS_PTRACE|CAP_SYS_PACCT|CAP_SYS_ADMIN|CAP_SYS_BOOT|CAP_SYS_NICE|CAP_SYS_RESOURCE|CAP_SYS_TIME|CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG|CAP_MKNOD|CAP_LEASE|CAP_AUDIT_WRITE|CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL|CAP_SETFCAP, CAP_CHOWN|CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE|CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH|CAP_FOWNER|CAP_FSETID|CAP_KILL|CAP_SETGID|CAP_SETUID|CAP_SETPCAP|CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE|CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE|CAP_NET_BROADCAST|CAP_NET_ADMIN|CAP_NET_RAW|CAP_IPC_LOCK|CAP_IPC_OWNER|CAP_SYS_MODULE|CAP_SYS_RAWIO|CAP_SYS_CHROOT|CAP_SYS_PTRACE|CAP_SYS_PACCT|CAP_SYS_ADMIN|CAP_SYS_BOOT|CAP_SYS_NICE|CAP_SYS_RESOURCE|CAP_SYS_TIME|CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG|CAP_MKNOD|CAP_LEASE|CAP_AUDIT_WRITE|CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL|CAP_SETFCAP, 0}) = 0

Privileges are set but do not work. Any suggestions how to solve this problem?

UPDATE: prctl added to code

21a22
> prctl(PR_SET_KEEPCAPS, 1, 0, 0, 0);
24a26
> cap_set_flag(caps, CAP_EFFECTIVE, 3, cap_list, CAP_SET);

so now it is

prctl(PR_SET_KEEPCAPS, 1, 0, 0, 0);
setgid(65534);
setuid(65534);
cap_set_flag(caps, CAP_EFFECTIVE, 3, cap_list, CAP_SET);

Caps were inherited after setuid , and caps that were set manually are still there, but it didn't solve the problem

setgid(65534)                           = 0
setuid(65534)                           = 0
capget({_LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION_3, 0}, NULL) = 0
capget({_LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION_3, 0}, {0, CAP_CHOWN|CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE|CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH|CAP_FOWNER|CAP_FSETID|CAP_KILL|CAP_SETGID|CAP_SETUID|CAP_SETPCAP|CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE|CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE|CAP_NET_BROADCAST|CAP_NET_ADMIN|CAP_NET_RAW|CAP_IPC_LOCK|CAP_IPC_OWNER|CAP_SYS_MODULE|CAP_SYS_RAWIO|CAP_SYS_CHROOT|CAP_SYS_PTRACE|CAP_SYS_PACCT|CAP_SYS_ADMIN|CAP_SYS_BOOT|CAP_SYS_NICE|CAP_SYS_RESOURCE|CAP_SYS_TIME|CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG|CAP_MKNOD|CAP_LEASE|CAP_AUDIT_WRITE|CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL|CAP_SETFCAP, CAP_SETGID|CAP_SETUID|CAP_SETPCAP}) = 0
setgid(0)                               = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)
setuid(0)                               = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)
exit_group(0)                           = ?
+++ exited with 0 +++

UPDATE2: Can't understand it. Ive added 2strs after 1st setuid , to check out for caps.

printf("cape set %d\n", cap_set_flag(caps, CAP_EFFECTIVE, 3, cap_list, CAP_SET));
printf("%s\n", cap_to_text(cap_get_proc(), NULL));

it returned

catp set 0
=p cap_setgid,cap_setuid,cap_setpcap+i

Effective flag is not set, but cap_set_flag returned 0

Answer 1

By default, capability sets are lost across an UID transition; use

prctl(PR_SET_KEEPCAPS, 1, 0, 0, 0);

to retain permitted capabilities ( cap_set_flag(caps, CAP_PERMITTED, ...) ). Note that the effective capability set will be reset, but can be re-established.

The following works fine for me.

#include <sys/capability.h>
#include <sys/prctl.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    cap_value_t cap_values[] = {CAP_SETUID, CAP_SETGID};
    cap_t caps;

    caps = cap_get_proc();
    cap_set_flag(caps, CAP_PERMITTED, 2, cap_values, CAP_SET);
    cap_set_proc(caps);
    prctl(PR_SET_KEEPCAPS, 1, 0, 0, 0);
    cap_free(caps);

    setgid(65534);
    setuid(65534);

    caps = cap_get_proc();
    cap_set_flag(caps, CAP_EFFECTIVE, 2, cap_values, CAP_SET);
    cap_set_proc(caps);
    cap_free(caps);

    setgid(0);
    setuid(0);

    return 0;
}

Answer 2

I think you confused CAP_PERMITTED set with CAP_INHERITABLE, Unless you are using threads/exec , you want to use CAP_PERMITTED.

Inheritable (formerly known as allowed): This set is ANDed with the thread's inheritable set to determine which inheritable capabilities are enabled in the permitted set of the thread after the execve(2)

As for update2: try printing out cap_to_text(cap_get_proc()) before/after and also consider what is the difference between cap_set_flag and cap_set_proc .
