* x86, mm/ASLR: Fix stack randomization on 64-bit systemsHector Marco-Gisbert2015-02-191-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The issue is that the stack for processes is not properly randomized on 64 bit architectures due to an integer overflow. The affected function is randomize_stack_top() in file "fs/binfmt_elf.c": static unsigned long randomize_stack_top(unsigned long stack_top) { unsigned int random_variable = 0; if ((current->flags & PF_RANDOMIZE) && !(current->personality & ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE)) { random_variable = get_random_int() & STACK_RND_MASK; random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT; } return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) + random_variable; return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) - random_variable; } Note that, it declares the "random_variable" variable as "unsigned int". Since the result of the shifting operation between STACK_RND_MASK (which is 0x3fffff on x86_64, 22 bits) and PAGE_SHIFT (which is 12 on x86_64): random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT; then the two leftmost bits are dropped when storing the result in the "random_variable". This variable shall be at least 34 bits long to hold the (22+12) result. These two dropped bits have an impact on the entropy of process stack. Concretely, the total stack entropy is reduced by four: from 2^28 to 2^30 (One fourth of expected entropy). This patch restores back the entropy by correcting the types involved in the operations in the functions randomize_stack_top() and stack_maxrandom_size(). The successful fix can be tested with: $ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep stack; done 7ffeda566000-7ffeda587000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7fff5a332000-7fff5a353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7ffcdb7a1000-7ffcdb7c2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7ffd5e2c4000-7ffd5e2e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] ... Once corrected, the leading bytes should be between 7ffc and 7fff, rather than always being 7fff.

| * binfmt_elf: allow arch code to examine PT_LOPROC ... PT_HIPROC headersPaul Burton2014-11-241-2/+103
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MIPS is introducing new variants of its O32 ABI which differ in their handling of floating point, in order to enable a gradual transition towards a world where mips32 binaries can take advantage of new hardware features only available when configured for certain FP modes. In order to do this ELF binaries are being augmented with a new section that indicates, amongst other things, the FP mode requirements of the binary. The presence & location of such a section is indicated by a program header in the PT_LOPROC ... PT_HIPROC range. In order to allow the MIPS architecture code to examine the program header & section in question, pass all program headers in this range to an architecture-specific arch_elf_pt_proc function. This function may return an error if the header is deemed invalid or unsuitable for the system, in which case that error will be returned from load_elf_binary and upwards through the execve syscall. A means is required for the architecture code to make a decision once it is known that all such headers have been seen, but before it is too late to return from an execve syscall. For this purpose the arch_check_elf function is added, and called once, after all PT_LOPROC to PT_HIPROC headers have been passed to arch_elf_pt_proc but before the code which invoked execve has been lost. This enables the architecture code to make a decision based upon all the headers present in an ELF binary and its interpreter, as is required to forbid conflicting FP ABI requirements between an ELF & its interpreter. In order to allow data to be stored throughout the calls to the above functions, struct arch_elf_state is introduced. Finally a variant of the SET_PERSONALITY macro is introduced which accepts a pointer to the struct arch_elf_state, allowing it to act based upon state observed from the architecture specific program headers.

| * binfmt_elf: Hoist ELF program header loading to a functionPaul Burton2014-11-241-43/+56
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | load_elf_binary & load_elf_interp both load program headers from an ELF executable in the same way, duplicating the code. This patch introduces a helper function (load_elf_phdrs) which performs this common task & calls it from both load_elf_binary & load_elf_interp. In addition to reducing code duplication, this is part of preparing to load the ELF interpreter headers earlier such that they can be examined before it's too late to return an error from an exec syscall.

* | fs/binfmt_elf.c: fix internal inconsistency relating to vma dump sizeJungseung Lee2014-12-101-18/+22
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | vma_dump_size() has been used several times on actual dumper and it is supposed to return the same value for the same vma. But vma_dump_size() could return different values for same vma. The known problem case is concurrent shared memory removal. If a vma is used for a shared memory and that shared memory is removed between writing program header and dumping vma memory, this will result in a dump file which is internally consistent. To fix the problem, we set baseline to get dump size and store the size into vma_filesz and always use the same vma dump size which is stored in vma_filsz. The consistnecy with reality is not actually guranteed, but it's tolerable since that is fully consistent with base line.

| * mm, fs: Add vm_ops->name as an alternative to arch_vma_nameAndy Lutomirski2014-05-201-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | arch_vma_name sucks. It's a silly hack, and it's annoying to implement correctly. In fact, AFAICS, even the straightforward x86 implementation is incorrect (I suspect that it breaks if the vdso mapping is split or gets remapped). This adds a new vm_ops->name operation that can replace it. The followup patches will remove all uses of arch_vma_name on x86, fixing a couple of annoyances in the process.

* fs/binfmt_elf.c: fix hugetlb memory check in vma_dump_size()Naoya Horiguchi2013-04-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt says about coredump_filter bitmask, Note bit 0-4 doesn't effect any hugetlb memory. hugetlb memory are only effected by bit 5-6. However current code can go into the subsequent flag checks of bit 0-4 for vma(VM_HUGETLB). So this patch inserts 'return' and makes it work as written in the document.
