Subject: [PATCH] gh-97514: Don't use Linux abstract sockets for
|
||||
multiprocessing (GH-98501)
|
||||
|
||||
Linux abstract sockets are insecure as they lack any form of filesystem
|
||||
permissions so their use allows anyone on the system to inject code into
|
||||
the process.
|
||||
|
||||
This removes the default preference for abstract sockets in
|
||||
multiprocessing introduced in Python 3.9+ via
|
||||
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/18866 while fixing
|
||||
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/84031.
|
||||
|
||||
Explicit use of an abstract socket by a user now generates a
|
||||
RuntimeWarning. If we choose to keep this warning, it should be
|
||||
backported to the 3.7 and 3.8 branches.
|
||||
(cherry picked from commit 49f61068f49747164988ffc5a442d2a63874fc17)

|

+On Linux the :mod:`multiprocessing` module returns to using filesystem backed
|
||||
+unix domain sockets for communication with the *forkserver* process instead of
|
||||
+the Linux abstract socket namespace. Only code that chooses to use the
|
||||
+:ref:`"forkserver" start method <multiprocessing-start-methods>` is affected.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+Abstract sockets have no permissions and could allow any user on the system in
|
||||
+the same `network namespace
|
||||
+<https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/network_namespaces.7.html>`_ (often the
|
||||
+whole system) to inject code into the multiprocessing *forkserver* process.
|
||||
+This was a potential privilege escalation. Filesystem based socket permissions
|
||||
+restrict this to the *forkserver* process user as was the default in Python 3.8
|
||||
+and earlier.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+This prevents Linux `CVE-2022-42919
