| 1 | // Package unixdial is the one way the edge and the agent dial a unix |
| 2 | // socket. Two checks ride on every dial (isolated-exec design §5.4): |
| 3 | // |
| 4 | // - the reserved control endpoint is refused BEFORE connect(): a registry |
| 5 | // row pointing rt.Socket at the root control channel must never be |
| 6 | // proxied to, however it got there; |
| 7 | // - the listener must answer to the path that was dialled: after |
| 8 | // connect() and before a byte is sent, getpeername() names the path |
| 9 | // the LISTENER bound, which is its real path however it was reached. |
| 10 | // A symlink at /run/carlos/<host>.sock pointing at a sibling's socket |
| 11 | // or at the control socket therefore yields a mismatch, and the |
| 12 | // connection is closed unused. |
| 13 | // |
| 14 | // The first check is purely lexical: it filepath.Cleans the dialled |
| 15 | // string and compares it to the control directory, before any connect. |
| 16 | // A relative path, or a symlinked parent directory that only resolves to |
| 17 | // the control directory at connect time, is not caught here — it is |
| 18 | // still caught by the second check, once getpeername() names the |
| 19 | // control listener's real bound path after connect. A listener bound by |
| 20 | // a relative path is refused by the second check for the same reason: |
| 21 | // the kernel reports the bind string verbatim, and a relative name can |
| 22 | // never filepath.Clean-equal the absolute path Checked was dialled with. |
| 23 | // |
| 24 | // Credentials are deliberately not consulted: a listener systemd created |
| 25 | // and passed to a DynamicUser service reports root in SO_PEERCRED, and |
| 26 | // that shape (carlos-app@.socket) must keep working (codex R4-1). |
