🇰🇷 한글 설명

Linux 커널의 seccomp 기능에서 copy_seccomp() 호출 위치를 실패 경로 이후로 옮기는 수정입니다. 프로세스 생성 중 치명적 시그널을 받아 실패할 때 seccomp 필터 구조체와 관련 객체가 해제되지 않아 메모리 누수가 발생하던 문제를 해결합니다.

💡 쉬운 설명

프로그램이 시스템 호출 제한 설정을 만든 뒤 프로세스 생성이 중간에 실패하면, 사용하던 메모리가 정리되지 않고 남는 문제입니다. 커널이 이 메모리를 제대로 반환하도록 순서를 고친 것입니다.

🇺🇸 원문 (English)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: seccomp: Move copy_seccomp() to no failure path. Our syzbot instance reported memory leaks in do_seccomp() [0], similar to the report [1]. It shows that we miss freeing struct seccomp_filter and some objects included in it. We can reproduce the issue with the program below [2] which calls one seccomp() and two clone() syscalls. The first clone()d child exits earlier than its parent and sends a signal to kill it during the second clone(), more precisely before the fatal_signal_pending() test in copy_process(). When the parent receives the signal, it has to destroy the embryonic process and return -EINTR to user space. In the failure path, we have to call seccomp_filter_release() to decrement the filter's refcount. Initially, we called it in free_task() called from the failure path, but the commit 3a15fb6ed92c ("seccomp: release filter after task is fully dead") moved it to release_task() to notify user space as early as possible that the filter is no longer used. To keep the change and current seccomp refcount semantics, let's move copy_seccomp() just after the signal check and add a WARN_ON_ONCE() in free_task() for future debugging.
