Indeed - I ended up clarifying both wchan explanations, see the changes below. I also made the 'no symbols' output "0" (instead of an empty string), to better match the /proc/PID/stat behavior and previous output. I'll push it out after a bit more testing and if nothing goes wrong I'll send this patch to Linus in the v4.4 merge window. Thanks, Ingo ============> >From bc43bb95763e5b215e389f75860eca0952ca4704 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar <mi...@kernel.org> Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2015 15:59:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fs/proc, core/debug: Don't expose absolute kernel addresses via wchan So the /proc/PID/stat 'wchan' field (the 30th field) leaks absolute kernel addresses to unprivileged user-space, of kernel functions that sleep: seq_put_decimal_ull(m, ' ', wchan); The absolute address might also leak via /proc/PID/wchan, if KALLSYMS is turned off or if the symbol lookup fails for some reason: static int proc_pid_wchan(struct seq_file *m, struct pid_namespace *ns, struct pid *pid, struct task_struct *task) { unsigned long wchan; char symname[KSYM_NAME_LEN]; wchan = get_wchan(task); if (lookup_symbol_name(wchan, symname) < 0) { if (!ptrace_may_access(task, PTRACE_MODE_READ)) return 0; seq_printf(m, "%lu", wchan); } else { seq_printf(m, "%s", symname); } return 0; } This isn't ideal, because for example it trivially leaks the KASLR offset to any local attacker: fomalhaut:~> printf "%016lx\n" $(cat /proc/$$/stat | cut -d' ' -f35) ffffffff8123b380 Most real-life uses of wchan are symbolic: ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm and procps uses /proc/PID/wchan, not the absolute address in /proc/PID/stat: triton:~/tip> strace -f ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm 2>&1 | grep wchan | tail -1 open("/proc/30833/wchan", O_RDONLY) = 6 These days there's very little legitimate reason user-space would be interested in the absolute address. The absolute address is mostly historic: from the days when we didn't have kallsyms and user-space procps had to do the decoding itself via the System.map. So this patch sets all numeric output to "0" and keeps only symbolic output, in /proc/PID/wchan. ( The absolute sleep address can generally still be profiled via perf, by tasks with sufficient privileges. ) Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner <t...@linutronix.de> Acked-by: Kees Cook <keesc...@chromium.org> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torva...@linux-foundation.org> Cc: <sta...@vger.kernel.org> Cc: Al Viro <v...@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <gli...@google.com> Cc: Andrey Konovalov <andreyk...@google.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <ryabinin....@gmail.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <l...@amacapital.net> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <l...@kernel.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <b...@alien8.de> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlas...@redhat.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyu...@google.com> Cc: Kostya Serebryany <k...@google.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efa...@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijls...@chello.nl> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <pet...@infradead.org> Cc: Sasha Levin <sasha.le...@oracle.com> Cc: kasan-dev <kasan-...@googlegroups.com> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150930135917.ga3...@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mi...@kernel.org> --- Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt | 5 +++-- fs/proc/array.c | 6 ++---- fs/proc/base.c | 9 +++------ 3 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt b/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt index d411ca63c8b6..db64f7d6492d 100644 --- a/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt +++ b/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt @@ -140,7 +140,8 @@ Table 1-1: Process specific entries in /proc stat Process status statm Process memory status information status Process status in human readable form - wchan If CONFIG_KALLSYMS is set, a pre-decoded wchan + wchan If CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y, wchan (the kernel function the process is + blocked in) symbol string.
