Currently zfsdev_ioctl, when confronted by a request with the FKIOCTL flag set,
skips all processing of secpolicy functions. This means that ZFS is not doing
any kind of verification of the credentials or access rights of the caller and
assuming that (as it is an in-kernel client) all such checks have already been
done.
This turns out to be quite a dangerous assumption, especially with respect to
sdev. In general I don't think it's particularly reasonable to offload this
enforcement of access rights onto other kernel subsystems when ZFS has some
particular local semantics in this area (delegated datasets etc) and does not
provide any kind of API to allow other subsystems to avoid code duplication
when doing it. ZFS should apply its normal access policy to requests from
within the kernel, and callers should take care to give it the correct
credentials and call it from the correct context in order to get the results
they need.
You can observe the currently unfortunate consequences of this bug in any non-
global zone that has access to /dev/zvol or any subset of it via sdev profiles.
In particular, a zone used to contain a KVM or similar which has a single zvol
passed through to it using a <device match= block in its zone XML.
Even though sdev makes something of an attempt to control for whether the
caller should have access to nodes in /dev/zvol, it doesn't do this correctly,
or really at all in the lookup call path. So, if we have a zone that's been
given access to any part of /dev/zvol, it can simply look up the full path to
any other zvol on the entire system, and the node will appear and be able to be
used.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
