* client: disable running artifact downloader as nobody
This PR reverts a change from Nomad 1.5 where artifact downloads were
executed as the nobody user on Linux systems. This was done as an attempt
to improve the security model of artifact downloading where third party
tools such as git or mercurial would be run as the root user with all
the security implications thereof.
However, doing so conflicts with Nomad's own advice for securing the
Client data directory - which when setup with the recommended directory
permissions structure prevents artifact downloads from working as intended.
Artifact downloads are at least still now executed as a child process of
the Nomad agent, and on modern Linux systems make use of the kernel Landlock
feature for limiting filesystem access of the child process.
* docs: update upgrade guide for 1.5.1 sandboxing
* docs: add cl
* docs: add title to upgrade guide fix
* artifact: protect against unbounded artifact decompression
Starting with 1.5.0, set defaut values for artifact decompression limits.
artifact.decompression_size_limit (default "100GB") - the maximum amount of
data that will be decompressed before triggering an error and cancelling
the operation
artifact.decompression_file_count_limit (default 4096) - the maximum number
of files that will be decompressed before triggering an error and
cancelling the operation.
* artifact: assert limits cannot be nil in validation
This PR adjusts the artifact sandbox on Linux to enable reading from known
system-wide git or mercurial configuration, if they exist.
Folks doing something odd like specifying custom paths for global config will
need to use the standard locations, or disable artifact filesystem isolation.
This PR fixes the artifact sandbox (new in Nomad 1.5) to allow downloading
artifacts into the shared 'alloc' directory made available to each task in
a common allocation. Previously we assumed the 'alloc' dir would be mounted
under the 'task' dir, but this is only the case in fs isolation: chroot; in
other modes the alloc dir is elsewhere.
* artifact: enable inheriting environment variables from client
This PR adds client configuration for specifying environment variables that
should be inherited by the artifact sandbox process from the Nomad Client agent.
Most users should not need to set these values but the configuration is provided
to ensure backwards compatability. Configuration of go-getter should ideally be
done through the artifact block in a jobspec task.
e.g.
```hcl
client {
artifact {
set_environment_variables = "TMPDIR,GIT_SSH_OPTS"
}
}
```
Closes#15498
* website: update set_environment_variables text to mention PATH
This PR adds the client config option for turning off filesystem isolation,
applicable on Linux systems where filesystem isolation is possible and
enabled by default.
```hcl
client{
artifact {
disable_filesystem_isolation = <bool:false>
}
}
```
Closes#15496
* client: sandbox go-getter subprocess with landlock
This PR re-implements the getter package for artifact downloads as a subprocess.
Key changes include
On all platforms, run getter as a child process of the Nomad agent.
On Linux platforms running as root, run the child process as the nobody user.
On supporting Linux kernels, uses landlock for filesystem isolation (via go-landlock).
On all platforms, restrict environment variables of the child process to a static set.
notably TMP/TEMP now points within the allocation's task directory
kernel.landlock attribute is fingerprinted (version number or unavailable)
These changes make Nomad client more resilient against a faulty go-getter implementation that may panic, and more secure against bad actors attempting to use artifact downloads as a privilege escalation vector.
Adds new e2e/artifact suite for ensuring artifact downloading works.
TODO: Windows git test (need to modify the image, etc... followup PR)
* landlock: fixup items from cr
* cr: fixup tests and go.mod file
The artifact getter uses the go-getter library to fetch files from
different sources. Any bug in this library that results in a panic can
cause the entire Nomad client to crash due to a single file download
attempt.
This change aims to guard against this types of crashes by recovering
from panics when the getter attempts to download an artifact. The
resulting panic is converted to an error that is stored as a task event
for operator visibility and the panic stack trace is logged to the
client's log.
Fix numerous go-getter security issues:
- Add timeouts to http, git, and hg operations to prevent DoS
- Add size limit to http to prevent resource exhaustion
- Disable following symlinks in both artifacts and `job run`
- Stop performing initial HEAD request to avoid file corruption on
retries and DoS opportunities.
**Approach**
Since Nomad has no ability to differentiate a DoS-via-large-artifact vs
a legitimate workload, all of the new limits are configurable at the
client agent level.
The max size of HTTP downloads is also exposed as a node attribute so
that if some workloads have large artifacts they can specify a high
limit in their jobspecs.
In the future all of this plumbing could be extended to enable/disable
specific getters or artifact downloading entirely on a per-node basis.
* test: use `T.TempDir` to create temporary test directory
This commit replaces `ioutil.TempDir` with `t.TempDir` in tests. The
directory created by `t.TempDir` is automatically removed when the test
and all its subtests complete.
Prior to this commit, temporary directory created using `ioutil.TempDir`
needs to be removed manually by calling `os.RemoveAll`, which is omitted
in some tests. The error handling boilerplate e.g.
defer func() {
if err := os.RemoveAll(dir); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
}
is also tedious, but `t.TempDir` handles this for us nicely.

go-getter creates a circular dependency between a Client and Getter,
which means each is inherently thread-unsafe if you try to re-use
on or the other.
This PR fixes Nomad to no longer make use of the default Getter objects
provided by the go-getter package. Nomad must create a new Client object
on every artifact download, as the Client object controls the Src and Dst
among other things. When Caling Client.Get, the Getter modifies its own
Client reference, creating the circular reference and race condition.
We can still achieve most of the desired connection caching behavior by
re-using a shared HTTP client with transport pooling enabled.
This PR adds the ability to set HTTP headers when downloading
an artifact from an `http` or `https` resource.
The implementation in `go-getter` is such that a new `HTTPGetter`
must be created for each artifact that sets headers (as opposed
to conveniently setting headers per-request). This PR maintains
the memoization of the default Getter objects, creating new ones
only for artifacts where headers are set.
Closes#9306
Prior to Nomad 0.12.5, you could use `${NOMAD_SECRETS_DIR}/mysecret.txt` as
the `artifact.destination` and `template.destination` because we would always
append the destination to the task working directory. In the recent security
patch we treated the `destination` absolute path as valid if it didn't escape
the working directory, but this breaks backwards compatibility and
interpolation of `destination` fields.
This changeset partially reverts the behavior so that we always append the
destination, but we also perform the escape check on that new destination
after interpolation so the security hole is closed.
Also, ConsulTemplate test should exercise interpolation
Ensure that the client honors the client configuration for the
`template.disable_file_sandbox` field when validating the jobspec's
`template.source` parameter, and not just with consul-template's own `file`
function.
Prevent interpolated `template.source`, `template.destination`, and
`artifact.destination` fields from escaping file sandbox.
As part of deprecating legacy drivers, we're moving the env package to a
new drivers/shared tree, as it is used by the modern docker and rkt
driver packages, and is useful for 3rd party plugins.
