commit a1aaf9f9080202f48570d3a207d0595db159f99c
Author: Pavel Kohout <pavel@aisle.com>
Date: Tue Jan 13 00:00:00 2026 +0000
Fix symlink-following vulnerabilities (CWE-59)
Multiple symlink-following vulnerabilities exist in OpenCryptoki that run
in privileged contexts. These allow a token-group user to redirect file
operations to arbitrary filesystem targets by planting symlinks in
group-writable token directories, resulting in privilege escalation or
data exposure.
Affected components:
1. pkcstok_admin: set_file_permissions() uses stat() which follows symlinks,
then applies chmod/chown to the symlink target.
2. pkcstok_migrate: fopen() follows symlinks, then set_perm() modifies the
target permissions.
3. loadsave.c: Multiple wrapper functions use fopen() followed by set_perm().
4. hsm_mk_change.c: hsm_mk_change_op_open() uses fopen() followed by
hsm_mk_change_op_set_perm().
5. pbkdf.c: fopen() followed by set_perms() in two locations.
This fix:
- Introduces fopen_nofollow() helper in platform.h
- Checks for O_NOFOLLOW at compile time (not hardcoded per-platform)
- On platforms with O_NOFOLLOW: uses open(O_NOFOLLOW) + fdopen() for atomic
symlink rejection (race-condition free)
- On platforms without O_NOFOLLOW: falls back to lstat() + fopen() and emits
a compiler warning so the unsafe fallback doesn't go unnoticed
- Updates all affected wrapper functions to use fopen_nofollow()
- pkcstok_admin: Uses lstat() instead of stat() and skips symlinks
