signal: Extend exec_id to 64bits

2020-04-17T08:50:12Z

commit d1e7fd6462ca9fc76650fbe6ca800e35b24267da upstream. Replace the 32bit exec_id with a 64bit exec_id to make it impossible to wrap the exec_id counter. With care an attacker can cause exec_id wrap and send arbitrary signals to a newly exec'd parent. This bypasses the signal sending checks if the parent changes their credentials during exec. The severity of this problem can been seen that in my limited testing of a 32bit exec_id it can take as little as 19s to exec 65536 times. Which means that it can take as little as 14 days to wrap a 32bit exec_id. Adam Zabrocki has succeeded wrapping the self_exe_id in 7 days. Even my slower timing is in the uptime of a typical server. Which means self_exec_id is simply a speed bump today, and if exec gets noticably faster self_exec_id won't even be a speed bump. Extending self_exec_id to 64bits introduces a problem on 32bit architectures where reading self_exec_id is no longer atomic and can take two read instructions. Which means that is is possible to hit a window where the read value of exec_id does not match the written value. So with very lucky timing after this change this still remains expoiltable. I have updated the update of exec_id on exec to use WRITE_ONCE and the read of exec_id in do_notify_parent to use READ_ONCE to make it clear that there is no locking between these two locations.

rseq: Unregister rseq for clone CLONE_VM

2020-02-05T21:22:43Z

[ Upstream commit 463f550fb47bede3a5d7d5177f363a6c3b45d50b ] It has been reported by Google that rseq is not behaving properly with respect to clone when CLONE_VM is used without CLONE_THREAD. It keeps the prior thread's rseq TLS registered when the TLS of the thread has moved, so the kernel can corrupt the TLS of the parent. The approach of clearing the per task-struct rseq registration on clone with CLONE_THREAD flag is incomplete. It does not cover the use-case of clone with CLONE_VM set, but without CLONE_THREAD. Here is the rationale for unregistering rseq on clone with CLONE_VM flag set: 1) CLONE_THREAD requires CLONE_SIGHAND, which requires CLONE_VM to be set. Therefore, just checking for CLONE_VM covers all CLONE_THREAD uses. There is no point in checking for both CLONE_THREAD and CLONE_VM, 2) There is the possibility of an unlikely scenario where CLONE_SETTLS is used without CLONE_VM. In order to be an issue, it would require that the rseq TLS is in a shared memory area. I do not plan on adding CLONE_SETTLS to the set of clone flags which unregister RSEQ, because it would require that we also unregister RSEQ on set_thread_area(2) and arch_prctl(2) ARCH_SET_FS for completeness. So rather than doing a partial solution, it appears better to let user-space explicitly perform rseq unregistration across clone if needed in scenarios where CLONE_VM is not set.

futex: Add mutex around futex exit

2019-11-29T09:10:13Z

commit 3f186d974826847a07bc7964d79ec4eded475ad9 upstream. The mutex will be used in subsequent changes to replace the busy looping of a waiter when the futex owner is currently executing the exit cleanup to prevent a potential live lock.

futex: Replace PF_EXITPIDONE with a state

2019-11-29T09:10:09Z

commit 3d4775df0a89240f671861c6ab6e8d59af8e9e41 upstream. The futex exit handling relies on PF_ flags. That's suboptimal as it requires a smp_mb() and an ugly lock/unlock of the exiting tasks pi_lock in the middle of do_exit() to enforce the observability of PF_EXITING in the futex code. Add a futex_state member to task_struct and convert the PF_EXITPIDONE logic over to the new state. The PF_EXITING dependency will be cleaned up in a later step. This prepares for handling various futex exit issues later.

arm64: entry.S: Do not preempt from IRQ before all cpufeatures are enabled

2019-10-16T16:51:43Z

Preempting from IRQ-return means that the task has its PSTATE saved on the stack, which will get restored when the task is resumed and does the actual IRQ return. However, enabling some CPU features requires modifying the PSTATE. This means that, if a task was scheduled out during an IRQ-return before all CPU features are enabled, the task might restore a PSTATE that does not include the feature enablement changes once scheduled back in. * Task 1: PAN == 0 ---| |--------------- | |<- return from IRQ, PSTATE.PAN = 0 | <- IRQ | +--------+ <- preempt() +-- ^ | reschedule Task 1, PSTATE.PAN == 1 * Init: --------------------+------------------------ ^ | enable_cpu_features set PSTATE.PAN on all CPUs Worse than this, since PSTATE is untouched when task switching is done, a task missing the new bits in PSTATE might affect another task, if both do direct calls to schedule() (outside of IRQ/exception contexts). Fix this by preventing preemption on IRQ-return until features are enabled on all CPUs. This way the only PSTATE values that are saved on the stack are from synchronous exceptions. These are expected to be fatal this early, the exception is BRK for WARN_ON(), but as this uses do_debug_exception() which keeps IRQs masked, it shouldn't call schedule().

tasks: Add a count of task RCU users

2019-09-25T15:42:29Z

Add a count of the number of RCU users (currently 1) of the task struct so that we can later add the scheduler case and get rid of the very subtle task_rcu_dereference(), and just use rcu_dereference(). As suggested by Oleg have the count overlap rcu_head so that no additional space in task_struct is required. Inspired-by: Linus Torvalds Inspired-by: Oleg Nesterov Signed-off-by: Eric W.
