From 8bb2ee192e482c5d500df9f2b1b26a560bd3026f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Dobriyan Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2018 16:34:05 -0800 Subject: proc: fix coredump vs read /proc/*/stat race do_task_stat() accesses IP and SP of a task without bumping reference count of a stack (which became an entity with independent lifetime at some point). Steps to reproduce: #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include int main(void) { setrlimit(RLIMIT_CORE, &(struct rlimit){}); while (1) { char buf[64]; char buf2[4096]; pid_t pid; int fd; pid = fork(); if (pid == 0) { *(volatile int *)0 = 0; } snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "/proc/%u/stat", pid); fd = open(buf, O_RDONLY); read(fd, buf2, sizeof(buf2)); close(fd); waitpid(pid, NULL, 0); } return 0; } BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000003fd8 IP: do_task_stat+0x8b4/0xaf0 PGD 800000003d73e067 P4D 800000003d73e067 PUD 3d558067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI CPU: 0 PID: 1417 Comm: a.out Not tainted 4.15.0-rc8-dirty #2 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-1.fc27 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:do_task_stat+0x8b4/0xaf0 Call Trace: proc_single_show+0x43/0x70 seq_read+0xe6/0x3b0 __vfs_read+0x1e/0x120 vfs_read+0x84/0x110 SyS_read+0x3d/0xa0 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x13/0x6c RIP: 0033:0x7f4d7928cba0 RSP: 002b:00007ffddb245158 EFLAGS: 00000246 Code: 03 b7 a0 01 00 00 4c 8b 4c 24 70 4c 8b 44 24 78 4c 89 74 24 18 e9 91 f9 ff ff f6 45 4d 02 0f 84 fd f7 ff ff 48 8b 45 40 48 89 ef <48> 8b 80 d8 3f 00 00 48 89 44 24 20 e8 9b 97 eb ff 48 89 44 24 RIP: do_task_stat+0x8b4/0xaf0 RSP: ffffc90000607cc8 CR2: 0000000000003fd8 John Ogness said: for my tests I added an else case to verify that the race is hit and correctly mitigated.
