core/host: shared host fingerprint refactor
Adds core/host.{h,c} — a single struct skeletonkey_host populated once
at startup and handed to every module callback via ctx->host. Replaces
the per-detect uname / /etc/os-release / sysctl / userns-fork-probe
calls scattered across the corpus with O(1) cached lookups, and gives
the dispatcher one consistent view of the host.
What's in the fingerprint:
- Identity: kernel_version (parsed from uname.release), arch (machine),
nodename, distro_id / distro_version_id / distro_pretty (parsed once
from /etc/os-release).
- Process state: euid, real_uid (defeats userns illusion via
/proc/self/uid_map), egid, username, is_root, is_ssh_session.
- Platform family: is_linux, is_debian_family, is_rpm_family,
is_arch_family, is_suse_family (file-existence checks once).
- Capability gates (Linux): unprivileged_userns_allowed (live
fork+unshare probe), apparmor_restrict_userns,
unprivileged_bpf_disabled, kpti_enabled, kernel_lockdown_active,
selinux_enforcing, yama_ptrace_restricted.
- System services: has_systemd, has_dbus_system.
Wiring:
- core/module.h forward-declares struct skeletonkey_host and adds the
pointer to skeletonkey_ctx. Modules opt-in by including
../../core/host.h.
- core/host.c is fully POD (no heap pointers) — uses a single file-
static instance, returns a stable pointer on every call. Lazily
populated on first skeletonkey_host_get().
- skeletonkey.c calls skeletonkey_host_get() at main() entry, stores
in ctx.host before any register_*() runs.
- cmd_auto's bespoke distro-fingerprint code (was an inline
read_os_release helper) is replaced with skeletonkey_host_print_banner(),
which emits a two-line banner of identity + capability gates.
Migrations:
- dirtydecrypt: kernel_version_current() -> ctx->host->kernel.
- fragnesia: removed local fg_userns_allowed() fork-probe in favour of
ctx->host->unprivileged_userns_allowed (no per-scan fork). Also
pulls kernel from ctx->host. The PRECOND_FAIL message now notes
whether AppArmor restriction is on.
- pack2theroot: access('/etc/debian_version') -> ctx->host->is_debian_family;
also short-circuits when ctx->host->has_dbus_system is false (saves
the GLib g_bus_get_sync attempt on systems without system D-Bus).
- overlayfs: replaced the inline is_ubuntu() /etc/os-release parser
with ctx->host->distro_id comparison. Local helper preserved for
symmetry / standalone builds.
Documentation: docs/ARCHITECTURE.md gains a 'Host fingerprint'
section describing the struct, the opt-in include pattern, and
example detect() usage. ROADMAP --auto accuracy log notes the
landing and flags remaining modules as an incremental follow-up.
Build verification:
- macOS (local): make clean && make -> Mach-O x86_64, 31 modules,
banner prints with distro=?/? (no /etc/os-release).
- Linux (docker gcc:latest + libglib2.0-dev): make clean && make ->
ELF 64-bit, 31 modules. Banner prints with kernel + distro=debian/13
+ 7 capability gates. dirtydecrypt correctly says 'predates the
rxgk code added in 7.0'; fragnesia PRECOND_FAILs with
'(host fingerprint)' annotation; pack2theroot PRECOND_FAILs on
no-DBus; overlayfs reports 'not Ubuntu (distro=debian)'.

pack2theroot (CVE-2026-41651) + --auto accuracy work
Adds the third ported module — Pack2TheRoot, a userspace PackageKit
D-Bus TOCTOU LPE — and spends real effort hardening --auto so its
detect step gives an accurate, robust verdict before deploying.
pack2theroot (CVE-2026-41651):
- Ported from the public Vozec PoC
(github.com/Vozec/CVE-2026-41651). Original disclosure by the
Deutsche Telekom security team.
- Two back-to-back InstallFiles D-Bus calls (SIMULATE then NONE)
overwrite the cached transaction flags between polkit auth and
dispatch. GLib priority ordering makes the overwrite deterministic,
not a timing race; postinst of the malicious .deb drops a SUID bash
in /tmp.
- detect() reads PackageKit's VersionMajor/Minor/Micro directly over
D-Bus and compares against the pinned fix release 1.3.5 (commit
76cfb675). This is a high-confidence verdict, not precondition-only.
- Debian-family only (PoC builds its own .deb in pure C; ar/ustar/
gzip-stored inline). Cleanup removes /tmp .debs + best-effort
unlinks /tmp/.suid_bash + sudo -n dpkg -r the staging packages.
- Adds an optional GLib/GIO build dependency. The top-level Makefile
autodetects via `pkg-config gio-2.0`; when absent the module
compiles as a stub returning PRECOND_FAIL.
- Embedded auditd + sigma rules cover the file-side footprint
(/tmp/.suid_bash, /tmp/.pk-*.deb, non-root dpkg/apt execve).
--auto accuracy improvements:
- Auto-enables --active before the scan. Per-module sentinel probes
(page-cache /tmp files, fork-isolated namespace mounts) turn
version-only checks into definitive verdicts, so silent distro
backports don't fool the scan and --auto won't pick blind on
TEST_ERROR.
- Per-module verdict printing — every module's result is shown
(VULNERABLE / patched / precondition / indeterminate), not just
VULNERABLE rows. Operator sees the full picture.
- Scan-end summary line: "N vulnerable, M patched/n.a., K
precondition-fail, L indeterminate" with a separate callout when
modules crashed.
- Distro fingerprint added to the auto banner (ID + VERSION_ID from
/etc/os-release alongside kernel/arch).
- Fork-isolated detect() — each detector runs in a child process so
a SIGILL/SIGSEGV in one module's probe is contained and the scan
continues. Surfaced live while testing: entrybleed's prefetchnta
KASLR sweep SIGILLs on emulated CPUs (linuxkit on darwin); without
isolation the whole --auto died at module 7 of 31. With isolation
the scan reports "detect() crashed (signal 4) — continuing" and
finishes cleanly.
module_safety_rank additions:
- pack2theroot: 95 (userspace D-Bus TOCTOU; dpkg + /tmp SUID footprint
— clean but heavier than pwnkit's gconv-modules-only path).
- dirtydecrypt / fragnesia: 86 (page-cache writes; one step below the
verified copy_fail/dirty_frag family at 88 to prefer verified
modules when both apply).
Docs:
- README badge / tagline / tier table / ⚪ block / example output /
v0.5.0 status — all updated to "28 verified + 3 ported".
- CVES.md counts line, the ported-modules note (now calling out
pack2theroot's high-confidence detect vs. precondition-only for
the page-cache pair), inventory row, operations table row.
- ROADMAP Phase 7+: pack2theroot moved out of carry-overs into the
"landed (ported, pending VM verification)" group; added a new
"--auto accuracy work" subsection documenting the dispatcher
hardening landed in this commit.
- docs/index.html: scanning-count example bumped to 31, status line
updated to mention 3 ported modules.
Build verification: full `make clean && make` in `docker gcc:latest`
with libglib2.0-dev installed: links into a 31-module skeletonkey
ELF (413KB), `--list` shows all modules including pack2theroot,
`--detect-rules --format=auditd` emits the new pack2theroot section,
`--auto --i-know --no-shell` exercises the new banner + active
probes + verdict table + fork isolation + scan summary end-to-end.
Only build warning is the pre-existing
`-Wunterminated-string-initialization` in dirty_pipe (not introduced
here).
