User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_2) AppleWebKit/604.4.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/11.0.2 Safari/604.4.7 Steps to reproduce: VULNERABILITY DETAILS Service workers can self update to keep at least one version running. This was also reported to Chrome (Spec bug?). REPRODUCTION CASE 1. Create index.html to load SW <!DOCTYPE html> <script> navigator.serviceWorker.register('/sw.js'); </script> 2. Create sw.js, and make sure the file will change every time the SW updates. One simple way of doing this is by adding the current timestamp to sw.js. (I attached a simple Go program for this). // Time: {now} function wait(ms) { // This is only to show const i = setInterval(() => console.log('is alive'), 1000); return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(() => { clearInterval(i); resolve(); }, ms)); } self.addEventListener('activate', event => { // Don't wait too long or the worker will be killed and this does not work. event.waitUntil(wait(120000).then(() => { self.registration.update(); })); }); 3. Open the html file (http://localhost:5000/index.html). This will register the SW and fire the |activate| event, which will wait some time and then self-update the SW. Because we include a unique timestamp in sw.js, SW will update and fire the |activate| event on the new worker. This can be repeated forever to keep at least one version running.

Summary: Security: Self-update service worker to stay alive → Self-update service worker to stay alive
This is bad for battery and memory, but its unclear to me if its a security issue.
I think this is a security issue because it violates the user's privacy. Let's say we use the running SW to ping a server instead of logging a message. Websites can now use this to track their users after they close the page, at least until they close the browser. If these websites have permission to send push notifications, they are able to track users even if they restart Firefox like this: 1. SW pings server. 2. If server did not receive a ping for some time, it sends an invisible push notification to the user which will be delivered when the user opens Firefox again.
If a service worker has push notifications permission then the server can already send push notifications to start the service worker in the background. It can use waitUntil() to hold the worker alive 5 minutes or so currently. Its unclear to me if we have throttling that would prevent push notifications coming once every 5 minutes. By track, what exactly do you mean? Tracking based on their ip address?
Tracking could be done based on ip addresses, or by including a unique token in the name of the service worker script. The ability to track a user was only an example of how it can be a privacy issue. People could also use this to execute tasks which consume a lot of cpu or memory. I think there are good reasons for the restriction that service workers cannot do this, and the example above shows a way to bypass it. If you decide to close this, i'd like to ask you to not make this report public yet. Chromium has a similar issue which can be used to run a service worker every time the browser starts and keep it running until the user closes the browser, but Chromium does not require the user to grant any permission to do this.
I'm not saying we shouldn't fix the issue. I was trying to determine if its a security issue and if so, how severe it is: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security_Severity_Ratings We may need a spec change to deal with the self update() call.
Do we have any way to have spec discussions about private bugs like this?
Flags: needinfo?(annevk)
There's no formalized way of handling it. I suggest discussing it here or in an equivalent bug of another browser. I copied Jake and Jungkee for their perspective.
Flags: needinfo?(annevk)
I'm also now in an email thread with Matt Falkenhagen and Ali Alabbas. The main concern so far is using this to mine bitcoin, etc. There are a few solutions on the table. In order of difficulty: 1. Reject self-update calls by service workers if there are no window/worker clients open. 2. Progressively delay the start of the update process every time self-update is called by a service worker while there are no clients open. It will work a few times, but eventually the delay will be greater than the service worker timeout and it will be killed. Opening a controlled client would reset the progressive delay. 3. Propagate the lifetime budget of the service worker through the update process to the new worker's install and activate events. Those events budgets are limited by the initial budget of the service worker that did a self-update. This is similar to how we solved self-postMessage(), but its a bit weird since the update results fires two events instead of one. I think we ultimately want to do (3), but we don't have very good infrastructure to support that. (1) might break some real sites. I think we probably want to do (2) for now. Once we implement budget lifetime propagation for self.postMessage() then we can maybe make updates use that mechanism as well.
May not need to be hidden unless chrome also wants to treat it as sensitive. Privacy issue (unlike Push the user hasn't agreed to it) and avenue for resource abuse, but not an exploit.

Marion, we should probably work this in the FF60 time frame. We probably want to do one of our short term fixes (probable 2 from comment 8).

Hey Catalin, I think I mispoke in our meeting about this bug the other day. I think I said something like we should store the current update delay on the WorkerPrivate so it resets when the SW thread is killed. I don't think that is correct. Instead we should probably store the current update delay on ServiceWorkerInfo and the ServiceWorkerManager should call a method to reset it when the list of controlled clients goes from zero to one entry. Basically, if the user opened a window to this site, then clear the progressive delay mitigation. Sorry for any confusion I might have introduced at the meeting.
Comment on attachment 8951365 [details] [diff] [review] Delay update runnables from service workers that don't control any clients. r=bkelly With this patch, calling registration.update() while not controlling clients will incurr a 5s * |multiplier| delay before the update is processed. The multiplier doubles for each request and resets when the worker starts controlling a document.

This allows us to do proper cleanup at shutdown or when a registration is removed. My initial choice with ServiceWorkerJobQueue was because it kept things sort of contained. After talking to baku, I think ServiceWorkerPrivate should own it: If the SW is terminated and there's a pending update job on the main thread holding a promise proxy, the shutdown procedure won't complete until that promsie proxy is released. We might end up keeping dangling terminating workers for a long time. > > ::: dom/serviceworkers/ServiceWorkerJobQueue.cpp > @@ +117,5 @@ > > +{ > > + uint32_t delay = Preferences::GetInt("dom.serviceWorkers.update_delay", > > + 5000); > > + uint32_t timeout = delay * mDelayMultiplier; > > + mDelayMultiplier *= 2; > > We need to reset the delay multiplier to zero when the registration starts > controlling a client.

The closure is not ref-counted by the timer. It is held alive by the ServiceWorkerPrivate::StoreISupports(), but that reference is cleared in TerminateWorker(). If TerminateWorker() is called before the timer fires then this will hit a UAF. Rather than using StoreISupports(), I think it might be better to just add an explicit timer list: nsTArray<nsCOMPtr<nsITimer>> mTimerList; The timer can hold a strong ref to the runnable like: RefPtr<ServiceWorkerPrivate> swp = worker->WorkerPrivate(); nsCOMPtr<nsIRunnable> self = this; auto cb = [self = Move(self), swp = Move(swp)] (nsITimer* aTimer, void* aClosure) { swp->ClearTimer(aTimer); self->Run() } The ServiceWorkerPrivate can then also cancel the timers in NoteDeadServiceWorkerInfo(), etc. This would be necessary to break the ref-cycle from timer->SWP->timer in a timely manner when we are shutting down. Or maybe make the SWP hold a list of the update runnables themselves and give it an explicit cancel method, etc. Not sure which would be cleaner. @@ +348,5 @@ > + > + Result<nsCOMPtr<nsITimer>, nsresult> result = > + NS_NewTimerWithFuncCallback(cb, this, delay, nsITimer::TYPE_ONE_SHOT, > + "dom::SWRUpdateRunnable::TimerRunnable", > + GetCurrentThreadEventTarget()); Instead of GetCurrentThreadEventTarget(), please use SystemGroup::GetEventTarget(TaskCategory::Other). @@ +350,5 @@ > + NS_NewTimerWithFuncCallback(cb, this, delay, nsITimer::TYPE_ONE_SHOT, > + "dom::SWRUpdateRunnable::TimerRunnable", > + GetCurrentThreadEventTarget()); > + mTimer = result.unwrapOr(nullptr); > + MOZ_ASSERT(mTimer); Can we make this a runtime check and only save our state on SWP if we pass it?

The timer should be cancelled on release, so we shouldn't hit a UAF. Unless I'm wrong? https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/xpcom/threads/nsTimerImpl.cpp#326
SWRUpdateRunnable now explicitly calls Cancel in its destructor. Addressed other comments.

This way the backoff would be exponential instead of linear. Matt Falkenhagen pointed out in the Chromium review that workers get a lot of time on every update() (It's 5 min install + 5 min activate in Chromium, not sure about the exact times in Firefox, but I expect them to be similar). Calling update() n times will result in n*10 minutes runtime, and if the delay is increased only 5 seconds every time update() is called, that will result a lot of runtime.

The mTimer member is on on the SWRUpdateRunnable and you get a new runnable every time script calls update(). So each update() call gets its own mTimer member. Stacked update() calls should not interfere with each other.
You're right, I interpreted this to be one mTimer member on ServiceWorkerRegistrationImpl. If every call gets its own timer, than this works as it's supposed to.

I've spent too much time removing this kind of usage from SWM to add another one. I've even talked with Nathan about removing it from the nsITimer API because its a footgun.

Store the nsITimer in the ServiceWorkerPrivate::StoreISupports(); 3. Have the lambda capture a strong ref to the runnable instead of passing it through as a void* closure.

Yannic: I can't find a chrome bug on this which may mean it's still hidden (I searched for bugs filed by you, which might also be the problem if you use a different name there). Please add a link to the chrome bug in a comment here so we can check when they've gone public with it.

Hi Catalin! Would this fix benefit from manual testing? If so, could you provide us some clear steps to reproduce this issue? I tried running the proof of concept from comment 0 but I can't manage to verify if this issue was fixed or not. Thanks!

Responding for :catalinb who has moved on from MoCo. The "Add test for self updating service worker." patch included an automated test which should provide the necessary test coverage. :bkelly performed the initial review of the automated test and I also inspected the test when reviewing a follow-up patch, so I think we have sufficient confidence in the test. So there shouldn't be a need for additional manual testing.
