Tag-based process enforcement behavior control method and system

Abstract

The present invention relates to a tag-based process enforcement behavior control method and system. The method comprises the following steps that: 1) a safety mark is set in a program file, and the safety mark is preferably stored in an extended attribute of the program file; 2) when the program file with the security mark runs, the operating system kernel reads the rule content of the security mark and stores the rule content in the process control block of the process; 3) when that process needs to execute a new program, match the path of the new program with the rule content stored in theprocess control block; 4) according to the matching result of the rules, the invention carries out the compulsory behavior control of the process. The invention adopts the compulsory mechanism to restrict the behavior range of the process, and once the compulsory execution of the process is beyond the limited range, the compulsory execution of the process can be terminated, the invention can effectively prevent the execution of arbitrary program after the process is injected by the code, and avoid the occurrence of the security event that the server is hijacked.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of computers, and in particular relates to a marking-based process enforcement behavior control method and system. Background technique [0002] The main method of "hacking" against server systems is so-called "code injection". "Code injection" mainly includes methods such as "buffer overflow" and "formatted data". The fundamental principle is to use the inherent defects of C language to fill the data area of ​​​​the program with a large amount of data. , to automatically execute the program remaining in the stack, thus successfully breaking into the server. Since the compromised server process often has the highest operating authority of the system, the attack program naturally inherits these privileges. Processes with privileges can surpass the restrictions of security policies in the system, and security mechanisms such as authentication and authentication and access control exist in name only, and intr...

cause complete control over the system

This method of relying only on the original access control policy of the operating system to prevent "code injection" attacks is not sufficient. It is necessary to provide a mandatory mechanism that can limit the range of behaviors performed. Once the limited range is exceeded, it will be forcibly terminated Process execution, preventing the occurrence of security events that damage the operating system, such as the execution of arbitrary code
