But # this might lead to scenarios where a start_time is recorded long before # a process becomes visible to user-space. For instance, with # userfaultfd(2) and TLS, user-space can delay the execution of fork(2) # for an indefinite amount of time (and will, if this causes network # access, or similar). # # By recording the start_time late, it much closer reflects the point in # time where the process becomes live and can be observed by other # processes. # # Lastly, this makes it much harder for user-space to predict and control # the start_time they get assigned. Previously, user-space could fork a # process and stall it in copy_thread_tls() before its pid is allocated, # but after its start_time is recorded. This can be misused to later-on # cycle through PIDs and resume the stalled fork(2) yielding a process # that has the same pid and start_time as a process that existed before. # This can be used to circumvent security systems that identify processes # by their pid+start_time combination. # # Even though user-space was always aware that start_time recording is # flaky (but several projects are known to still rely on start_time-based # identification), changing the start_time to be recorded late will help # mitigate existing attacks and make it much harder for user-space to # control the start_time a process gets assigned. # # Reported-by: Jann Horn # Signed-off-by: Tom Gundersen # Signed-off-by: David Herrmann # Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds # < /opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/sh4-linux/bin/sh4-linux-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/sh4-linux/bin/sh4-linux-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 7b55851367136b1efd84d98fea81ba57a98304cf # < make -s -j 8 ARCH=sh O=/kisskb/build/linus_kfr2r09-romimage_defconfig_sh4 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/sh4-linux/bin/sh4-linux- kfr2r09-romimage_defconfig # make -s -j 8 ARCH=sh O=/kisskb/build/linus_kfr2r09-romimage_defconfig_sh4 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/sh4-linux/bin/sh4-linux- Generating include/generated/machtypes.h :1318:2: warning: #warning syscall pkey_mprotect not implemented [-Wcpp] :1321:2: warning: #warning syscall pkey_alloc not implemented [-Wcpp] :1324:2: warning: #warning syscall pkey_free not implemented [-Wcpp] :1327:2: warning: #warning syscall statx not implemented [-Wcpp] :1333:2: warning: #warning syscall io_pgetevents not implemented [-Wcpp] :1336:2: warning: #warning syscall rseq not implemented [-Wcpp] /kisskb/src/arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh4/../sh3/../../entry-common.S: Assembler messages: /kisskb/src/arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh4/../sh3/../../entry-common.S:385: Warning: overflow in branch to syscall_exit_work; converted into longer instruction sequence /kisskb/src/arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh4/../sh3/../../entry-common.S:388: Warning: overflow in branch to syscall_exit_work; converted into longer instruction sequence /kisskb/src/fs/proc/inode.c: In function 'proc_reg_open': /kisskb/src/include/linux/list.h:65:12: warning: 'pdeo' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/fs/proc/inode.c:339:21: note: 'pdeo' was declared here /kisskb/src/kernel/printk/printk.c: In function 'devkmsg_sysctl_set_loglvl': /kisskb/src/kernel/printk/printk.c:186:16: warning: 'old' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/net/ipv4/ip_output.c: In function '__ip_append_data': /kisskb/src/include/linux/skbuff.h:1338:6: warning: 'extra_uref' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/net/ipv4/ip_output.c:885:14: note: 'extra_uref' was declared here /kisskb/src/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c: In function 'i2c_generic_scl_recovery': /kisskb/src/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c:235:5: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c: In function 'r8': /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c:41:2: warning: passing argument 1 of 'ioread8' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled by default] /kisskb/src/include/asm-generic/iomap.h:29:21: note: expected 'void *' but argument is of type 'const void *' /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c: In function 'r16': /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c:46:2: warning: passing argument 1 of 'ioread16' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled by default] /kisskb/src/include/asm-generic/iomap.h:30:21: note: expected 'void *' but argument is of type 'const void *' /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c: In function 'r32': /kisskb/src/drivers/sh/clk/cpg.c:51:2: warning: passing argument 1 of 'ioread32' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled by default] /kisskb/src/include/asm-generic/iomap.h:32:21: note: expected 'void *' but argument is of type 'const void *' Kernel: arch/sh/boot/zImage is ready Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/linus_kfr2r09-romimage_defconfig_sh4 # Build took: 0:00:36.175905
