Subject: [PATCH v2] fork: check exit_signal passed in clone3() call
Date: Tue, 10 Sep 2019 18:58:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190910175852.GA15572@asgard.redhat.com> (raw)
Previously, higher 32 bits of exit_signal fields were lost when
copied to the kernel args structure (that uses int as a type for the
respective field). Moreover, as Oleg has noted[1], exit_signal is used
unchecked, so it has to be checked for sanity before use; for the legacy
syscalls, applying CSIGNAL mask guarantees that it is at least non-negative;
however, there's no such thing is done in clone3() code path, and that can
break at least thread_group_leader.
Checking user-passed exit_signal against ~CSIGNAL mask solves both
of these problems.
[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/10/467
* kernel/fork.c (copy_clone_args_from_user): Fail with -EINVAL if
args.exit_signal has bits set outside CSIGNAL mask.
(_do_fork): Note that exit_signal is expected to be checked for the
sanity by the caller.
Fixes: 7f192e3cd316 ("fork: add clone3")
