¿Ansible evitará la ejecución de 'rm -rf /' en un script de shell?

Solución 1:

Tengo máquinas virtuales, ¡hagamos estallar un montón de ellas! Por la ciencia.

[[email protected] ~]# ansible --version
ansible 2.0.1.0
  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = Default w/o overrides

Primer intento:

[[email protected] ~]# cat killme.yml 
---
- hosts: localhost
  gather_facts: False
  tasks:
    - name: Die in a fire
      command: "rm -rf {x}/{y}"
[[email protected] ~]# ansible-playbook -l localhost -vvv killme.yml
Using /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg as config file
1 plays in killme.yml

Vale, entonces command simplemente pasa los literales y no pasa nada.

¿Qué tal nuestro bypass de seguridad favorito, raw? ?

Ah, pero ¿y si fueran variables indefinidas o algo así?

Bueno, eso no funcionó.

Pero, ¿y si las variables están definidas, pero vacías?

¡Por fin, algunos avances! Pero todavía se queja de que no usé --no-preserve-root .

Por supuesto, también me advierte que debería intentar usar el file módulo y state=absent . Veamos si eso funciona.

¡Buenas noticias para todos! Empezó a intentar para borrar todos mis archivos! Pero desafortunadamente se encontró con un error. Dejaré arreglar eso y obtener el libro de jugadas para destruir todo usando el file módulo como ejercicio para el lector.

¡NO ejecute ningún libro de jugadas que vea más allá de este punto! Verás por qué en un momento.

Finalmente, para el golpe de gracia ...

¡Esta máquina virtual es un ex-loro!

Curiosamente, lo anterior no pudo hacer nada con command en lugar de raw . Simplemente imprimió la misma advertencia sobre el uso de file con state=absent .

Voy a decir que parece que si no estás usando raw que hay alguna protección contra rm enloquecido Sin embargo, no debe confiar en esto. Eché un vistazo rápido al código de Ansible y, aunque encontré la advertencia, no encontré nada que suprimiera la ejecución del rm comando.

Solución 2:

¿Ansible evitará la ejecución de rm -rf /? en un script de shell?

Inspeccioné la fuente rm de coreutils, que tiene lo siguiente:

  if (x.recursive && preserve_root)
    {
      static struct dev_ino dev_ino_buf;
      x.root_dev_ino = get_root_dev_ino (&dev_ino_buf);
      if (x.root_dev_ino == NULL)
        error (EXIT_FAILURE, errno, _("failed to get attributes of %s"),
               quoteaf ("/"));
    }

La única forma de borrar desde la raíz es superar este bloque de código. De esta fuente:

struct dev_ino *
get_root_dev_ino (struct dev_ino *root_d_i)
{
  struct stat statbuf;
  if (lstat ("/", &statbuf))
    return NULL;
  root_d_i->st_ino = statbuf.st_ino;
  root_d_i->st_dev = statbuf.st_dev;
  return root_d_i;
}

Interpreto que esto significa que la función get_root_dev_ino devuelve nulo en / , y por lo tanto rm falla.

La única forma de omitir el primer bloque de código (con recursividad) es tener --no-preserve-root y no usa una variable de entorno para anular, por lo que tendría que pasarse explícitamente a rm.

Creo que esto prueba que, a menos que Ansible pase explícitamente --no-preserve-root a rm , no hará esto.

Conclusión

No creo que Ansible impida explícitamente rm -rf / porque rm mismo lo previene.
