Individual prctl(PR_SET_MM_*) calls do some checking to maintain a consistent view of mm->arg_start et al fields, but not enough. In particular PR_SET_MM_ARG_START/PR_SET_MM_ARG_END/ R_SET_MM_ENV_START/ PR_SET_MM_ENV_END only check that the address lies in an existing VMA, but don't check that the start address is lower than the end address _at all_. Consolidate all consistency checks, so there will be no difference in the future between PR_SET_MM_MAP and individual PR_SET_MM_* calls. The program below makes both ARGV and ENVP areas be reversed. It makes /proc/$PID/cmdline show garbage (it doesn't oops by luck). #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/prctl.h> #include <unistd.h> enum {PAGE_SIZE=4096}; int main(void) { void *p; p = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); #define PR_SET_MM 35 #define PR_SET_MM_ARG_START 8 #define PR_SET_MM_ARG_END 9 #define PR_SET_MM_ENV_START 10 #define PR_SET_MM_ENV_END 11 prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ARG_START, (unsigned long)p + PAGE_SIZE - 1, 0, 0); prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ARG_END, (unsigned long)p, 0, 0); prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ENV_START, (unsigned long)p + PAGE_SIZE - 1, 0, 0); prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ENV_END, (unsigned long)p, 0, 0); pause(); return 0; } [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tidy code, tweak comment] Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Acked-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Cc: Jarod Wilson <jarod@redhat.com> Cc: Jan Stancek <jstancek@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
