[Linux-ima-devel] vim editor gets stuck on CLOSE when running IMA LOG Appraisal

[Nasim, K. <Kam...@wi...>]

Hi Experts,

I am testing our IMA appraisal (appraise_type=log), to see how IMA would log appraisal failures. Everything seems fine except that when I close my file (without any edits), vim just hangs ( I need to kill the process manually)

My policy:

$ cat /etc/ima.policy
# EXT4_SUPER_MAGIC
measure func=FILE_CHECK uid=0 fsmagic=0xEF53
appraise func=FILE_MMAP mask=MAY_EXEC uid=0 appraise_type=imasig fsmagic=0xEF53
appraise func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_EXEC uid=0 appraise_type=imasig fsmagic=0xEF53
appraise func=BPRM_CHECK mask=MAY_EXEC uid=0 appraise_type=imasig fsmagic=0xEF53

My audit log entries (appraise_data  / missing-hash):

type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1507066020.544:1638): arch=c000003e syscall=9 success=yes exit=139688952565760 a0=0 a1=202110 a2=5 a3=802 items=0 ppid=3613 pid=3614 auid=1875 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=pts0 ses=2 comm="vim" exe="/usr/bin/vim" key=(null)
type=INTEGRITY_DATA msg=audit(1507066020.544:1639): pid=3614 uid=0 auid=1875 ses=2 op="appraise_data" cause="missing-hash" comm=vim name=/usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so dev=sda3 ino=785508 res=0

vim stuck after I try closing it with :q

localhost:~$ ps -auxf | grep vim
root      3613  0.0  0.0 198120  3432 pts/0    S+   21:26   0:00  |           \_ sudo vim /var/log/audit/audit.log
root      3614  0.0  0.0 150716  4488 pts/0    D+   21:26   0:00  |               \_ vim /var/log/audit/audit.log <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<


Looks like my process is in Uninterruptible Sleep. Any ideas why this might be happening?


Thanks,
Kam
