      all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct · f56141e3
      Andy Lutomirski 提交于
      If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
      the restart block is a very juicy exploit target.  This is because the
      restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
      
      Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
      making the restart_block harder to locate.
      
      Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
      targets, at least on some architectures.
      
      It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
      identical on all architectures.

      kernel-wide: fix missing validations on __get/__put/__copy_to/__copy_from_user() · 3ddc5b46
      Mathieu Desnoyers 提交于
      I found the following pattern that leads in to interesting findings:
      
        grep -r "ret.*|=.*__put_user" *
        grep -r "ret.*|=.*__get_user" *
        grep -r "ret.*|=.*__copy" *
      
      The __put_user() calls in compat_ioctl.c, ptrace compat, signal compat,
      since those appear in compat code, we could probably expect the kernel
      addresses not to be reachable in the lower 32-bit range, so I think they
      might not be exploitable.
      
      For the "__get_user" cases, I don't think those are exploitable: the worse
      that can happen is that the kernel will copy kernel memory into in-kernel
      buffers, and will fail immediately afterward.
      
      The alpha csum_partial_copy_from_user() seems to be missing the
      access_ok() check entirely.  The fix is inspired from x86.  This could
      lead to information leak on alpha.  I also noticed that many architectures
      map csum_partial_copy_from_user() to csum_partial_copy_generic(), but I
      wonder if the latter is performing the access checks on every
      architectures.

      sigtimedwait: use freezable blocking call · a2d5f1f5
      Colin Cross 提交于
      Avoid waking up every thread sleeping in a sigtimedwait call during
      suspend and resume by calling a freezable blocking call.  Previous
      patches modified the freezer to avoid sending wakeups to threads
      that are blocked in freezable blocking calls.
      
      This call was selected to be converted to a freezable call because
      it doesn't hold any locks or release any resources when interrupted
      that might be needed by another freezing task or a kernel driver
      during suspend, and is a common site where idle userspace tasks are
      blocked.

      coredump: only SIGKILL should interrupt the coredumping task · 403bad72
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      There are 2 well known and ancient problems with coredump/signals, and a
      lot of related bug reports:
      
      - do_coredump() clears TIF_SIGPENDING but of course this can't help
        if, say, SIGCHLD comes after that.
      
        In this case the coredump can fail unexpectedly. See for example
        wait_for_dump_helper()->signal_pending() check but there are other
        reasons.
      
      - At the same time, dumping a huge core on the slow media can take a
        lot of time/resources and there is no way to kill the coredumping
        task reliably. In particular this is not oom_kill-friendly.
      
      This patch tries to fix the 1st problem, and makes the preparation for the
      next changes.
      
      We add the new SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP flag set by zap_threads() to indicate
      that this process dumps the core.  prepare_signal() checks this flag and
      nacks any signal except SIGKILL.
      
      Note that this check tries to be conservative, in the long term we should
      probably treat the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT case equally but this needs more
      discussion.  See marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120508897917439
      
      Notes:
      	- recalc_sigpending() doesn't check SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP.
      	  The patch assumes that dump_write/etc paths should never
      	  call it, but we can change it as well.
      
      	- There is another source of TIF_SIGPENDING, freezer. This
      	  will be addressed separately.

      signal: always clear sa_restorer on execve · 2ca39528
      Kees Cook 提交于
      When the new signal handlers are set up, the location of sa_restorer is
      not cleared, leaking a parent process's address space location to
      children.  This allows for a potential bypass of the parent's ASLR by
      examining the sa_restorer value returned when calling sigaction().
      
      Based on what should be considered "secret" about addresses, it only
      matters across the exec not the fork (since the VMAs haven't changed
      until the exec).  But since exec sets SIG_DFL and keeps sa_restorer,
      this is where it should be fixed.
      
      Given the few uses of sa_restorer, a "set" function was not written
      since this would be the only use.  Instead, we use
      __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER, as already done in other places.

      signal: allow to send any siginfo to itself · 66dd34ad
      Andrey Vagin 提交于
      The idea is simple.  We need to get the siginfo for each signal on
      checkpointing dump, and then return it back on restore.
      
      The first problem is that the kernel doesn't report complete siginfos to
      userspace.  In a signal handler the kernel strips SI_CODE from siginfo.
      When a siginfo is received from signalfd, it has a different format with
      fixed sizes of fields.  The interface of signalfd was extended.  If a
      signalfd is created with the flag SFD_RAW, it returns siginfo in a raw
      format.
      
      rt_sigqueueinfo looks suitable for restoring signals, but it can't send
      siginfo with a positive si_code, because these codes are reserved for
      the kernel.  In the real world each person has right to do anything with
      himself, so I think a process should able to send any siginfo to itself.
      
      This patch:
      
      The kernel prevents sending of siginfo with positive si_code, because
      these codes are reserved for kernel.  I think we can allow a task to
      send such a siginfo to itself.  This operation should not be dangerous.
      
      This functionality is required for restoring signals in
      checkpoint/restart.
