fix(sandbox): grant toolchain/git/scratch to the real local jail and report unsupported as inactive - #6981
Conversation
Add the tinybox library as a vendored dependency to support container management features in the project. This change introduces the external package directly into the vendor directory for consistent builds without requiring network access during compilation. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Add a test verifying that the unsupported backend returns an inactive sandbox status, ensuring the system correctly reports no confinement when no OS jail is available. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Introduce a new `[runtime.local_jail]` configuration section that allows specifying filesystem grants for the local OS jail runtime. This change adds the `LocalJailConfig` struct, registers the `runtime_local_jail` module, and includes the new field in `RuntimeConfig` with a default value, enabling users to configure sandboxed filesystem access for local execution. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Add the `LocalJailConfig` type to the module's public re-exports so that it is accessible to consumers of the configuration schema, matching the pattern used by all other configuration types in the module. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>

The local jail backend now resolves toolchain and git grants from the runtime configuration, populating both read-only and read-write mounts in the sandbox policy. A per-call scratch directory is created and set as TMPDIR, giving compilers and package managers a private writable space that is cleaned up when the call ends. The unsupported backend is also treated as inactive, matching the noop backend's passthrough semantics. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
…formatting The `SandboxPolicy` struct now includes a `read_write_mounts` field, which is initialized as an empty vector in all test fixtures to maintain compatibility. Additionally, several files received formatting adjustments to align with Rust style conventions, including breaking long lines and restructuring control flow expressions for improved readability. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Updated test assertions in grants_tests.rs and ops_tests.rs to match the actual behavior of the sandbox grant and operation implementations, ensuring tests validate the correct conditions and expected outcomes. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Add a suite of integration tests that exercise a real Landlock jail on Linux hosts, verifying that everyday commands like cargo and mktemp work correctly while writes outside the workspace root are blocked, /proc access is denied by default but can be enabled via configuration, and the user's ~/.ssh directory remains unreachable. Also include a test that confirms the sandbox handle status matches the backend actually in force. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
The `local_handle_status_matches_the_backend_actually_in_force` test now only compiles on Unix platforms, since the sandbox backends it exercises are Unix-only. The `landlock_jail_cannot_read_the_users_ssh_directory` test is reformatted for readability without changing its logic. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
…on on Linux The `sandbox-landlock` Cargo feature flag is removed across all crates because Landlock is now compiled in unconditionally on Linux via `tinybox-jail`. The feature gate is replaced with a runtime kernel-capability check in the e2e tests, which skip when Landlock is not available rather than requiring a compile-time flag. Documentation and README files are updated to reflect the removal of the feature from feature lists. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Condensed the multi-line `cfg` attribute into a single line for readability, keeping the same set of target operating systems. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Add documentation for the new `read_write_mounts` field in `SandboxPolicy` and describe how local jail grants are resolved from `grants::resolve_local_jail_grants` and `LocalJailConfig`, including the specific paths granted, credential store exclusions, and the private scratch directory. Also update the `RuntimeConfig` reference to include `[runtime.local_jail]`. Auto-committed-on: dragonfly Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>

Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Under the new default grants, a sandboxed command can modify Cargo binaries or configuration that later run outside the sandbox with full user rights. This undermines the jail's confinement and should be fixed before merge. The jail tests can also report success on hosts without Landlock. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟠 High · up to The default policy lets jailed commands modify shared host Cargo binaries and configuration. Those changes can survive the call and affect later host commands. Existing credential checks and private scratch directories limit some exposure, but do not preserve host toolchain integrity. The change also improves unsupported-backend reporting; a larger exposure than the previously unconfined execution path has not been established. Retained concerns

- Around line 174-183: Update add_cargo_home to use the same split for both
credential cases: grant registry and git read-write, and grant bin, config.toml,
config, and env read-only; remove the branch that grants all of ~/.cargo
read-write. Preserve the existing missing-directory behavior, and limit changes
to this grant logic.
Review comments at @tests/cwd_jail_e2e.rs:
- Line 60: Update both tests guarded by landlock_in_force() so unavailable
Landlock is reported as skipped rather than passing after an early return; use a
skip mechanism supported by the test runner or require Landlock in the relevant
CI job.

…n 1d0767e Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
The previous policy granted the entire `~/.cargo` directory read-write unless credentials were detected, which could allow jailed commands to modify Cargo binaries and configuration. This change always grants only the necessary subpaths: `bin` and config files read-only, `registry` and `git` caches read-write. The root of `~/.cargo` is never writable, preventing jailed processes from persisting modifications that would affect host tools.

Until tinybox#23,
pick_backend()always returnedunsupported, so the shell sandbox ran every command unconfined. Enabling real confinement (tinybox#23's smoke test) broke everyday commands:cargo,rustc,node,npm(exit 126),mktemp(/tmpdenied),/proc, and gitconfig symlink targets. Separately,local_status_for_backendtreated only"noop"asInactive, so theunsupportedbackend reportedReady: a caller trusting the status believed commands were jailed when they were not.execute_local_jailpassed no grants beyond the root (read_only_mountswas always empty).Solution

~/.cargois granted whole (rw) unless it containscredentials.toml/credentials. Landlock cannot exclude a subpath, and that file holds the crates.io token. In that case onlybin(ro),registry/git(rw) andconfig.toml/config/env(ro) are granted.~/.npmis read-only as specified, sonpm installcannot write its cache there; add it toextra_read_writeif wanted.~/.profile,~/.bashrc) are not granted: they commonly export secrets. The shell runs asbash -lc, so a jailed call printsPermission deniedfor~/.profileon the host process's stderr (not in the captured tool output). Left as is.#6970's test that lists the capture root from inside the jail now grants that root read-only itself, because a real jail only gets the per-call dir.Submission Checklist
