      workqueue/tracing: Copy workqueue name to buffer in trace event · 83b62687
      Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored
      The trace event "workqueue_queue_work" references an unsafe string in
      dereferencing the name of the workqueue. As the name is allocated, it
      could later be freed, and the pointer to that string could stay on the
      tracing buffer. If the trace buffer is read after the string is freed, it
      will reference an unsafe pointer.
      
      I added a new verifier to make sure that all strings referenced in the
      output of the trace buffer is safe to read and this triggered on the
      workqueue_queue_work trace event:
      
      workqueue_queue_work: work struct=00000000b2b235c7 function=gc_worker workqueue=(0xffff888100051160:events_power_efficient)[UNSAFE-MEMORY] req_cpu=256 cpu=1
      workqueue_queue_work: work struct=00000000c344caec function=flush_to_ldisc workqueue=(0xffff888100054d60:events_unbound)[UNSAFE-MEMORY] req_cpu=256 cpu=4294967295
      workqueue_queue_work: work struct=00000000b2b235c7 function=gc_worker workqueue=(0xffff888100051160:events_power_efficient)[UNSAFE-MEMORY] req_cpu=256 cpu=1
      workqueue_queue_work: work struct=000000000b238b3f function=vmstat_update workqueue=(0xffff8881000c3760:mm_percpu_wq)[UNSAFE-MEMORY] req_cpu=1 cpu=1
      
      Also, if this event is read via a user space application like perf or
      trace-cmd, the name would only be an address and useless information:
      
      workqueue_queue_work: work struct=0xffff953f80b4b918 function=disk_events_workfn workqueue=ffff953f8005d378 req_cpu=8192 cpu=5

      prctl: fix PR_SET_MM_AUXV kernel stack leak · c995f12a
      Alexey Dobriyan authored
      Doing a
      
      	prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_AUXV, addr, 1);
      
      will copy 1 byte from userspace to (quite big) on-stack array
      and then stash everything to mm->saved_auxv.
      AT_NULL terminator will be inserted at the very end.
      
      /proc/*/auxv handler will find that AT_NULL terminator
      and copy original stack contents to userspace.
      
      This devious scheme requires CAP_SYS_RESOURCE.
