Subject: [20/35] proc: protect mm start_code/end_code in /proc/pid/stat
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2011 17:03:52 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110326000457.907954931@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110326000509.GA29736@kroah.com>
2.6.33-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Kees Cook <kees.cook@canonical.com>
commit 5883f57ca0008ffc93e09cbb9847a1928e50c6f3 upstream.
While mm->start_stack was protected from cross-uid viewing (commit
f83ce3e6b02d5 ("proc: avoid information leaks to non-privileged
processes")), the start_code and end_code values were not. This would
allow the text location of a PIE binary to leak, defeating ASLR.
Note that the value "1" is used instead of "0" for a protected value since
"ps", "killall", and likely other readers of /proc/pid/stat, take
start_code of "0" to mean a kernel thread and will misbehave. Thanks to
Brad Spengler for pointing this out.
