This module adds an option `security.hideProcessInformation` that, when enabled, restricts access to process information such as command-line arguments to the process owner. The module adds a static group "proc" whose members are exempt from process information hiding. Ideally, this feature would be implemented by simply adding the appropriate mount options to `fileSystems."/proc".fsOptions`, but this was found to not work in vmtests. To ensure that process information hiding is enforced, we use a systemd service unit that remounts `/proc` after `systemd-remount-fs.service` has completed. To verify the correctness of the feature, simple tests were added to nixos/tests/misc: the test ensures that unprivileged users cannot see process information owned by another user, while members of "proc" CAN. Thanks to @abbradar for feedback and suggestions.

Restrict access to process information to the owning user. Enabling
|
|
this option implies, among other things, that command-line arguments
|
|
remain private. This option is recommended for most systems, unless
|
|
there's a legitimate reason for allowing unprivileged users to inspect
|
|
the process information of other users.
|
|
|
|
Members of the group "proc" are exempt from process information hiding.
|
|
To allow a service to run without process information hiding, add "proc"
|
|
to its supplementary groups via
|
|
<option>systemd.services.<name?>.serviceConfig.SupplementaryGroups</option>.
