      ALSA: timer: Fix missing queue indices reset at SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_SELECT · a2ba2aff
      Takashi Iwai authored
      commit ba3021b2 upstream.
      
      snd_timer_user_tselect() reallocates the queue buffer dynamically, but
      it forgot to reset its indices.  Since the read may happen
      concurrently with ioctl and snd_timer_user_tselect() allocates the
      buffer via kmalloc(), this may lead to the leak of uninitialized
      kernel-space data, as spotted via KMSAN:

      This patch adds the missing reset of queue indices.  Together with the
      previous fix for the ioctl/read race, we cover the whole problem.

      ALSA: timer: Fix race between read and ioctl · 334e9205
      Takashi Iwai authored
      commit d11662f4 upstream.
      
      The read from ALSA timer device, the function snd_timer_user_tread(),
      may access to an uninitialized struct snd_timer_user fields when the
      read is concurrently performed while the ioctl like
      snd_timer_user_tselect() is invoked.  We have already fixed the races
      among ioctls via a mutex, but we seem to have forgotten the race
      between read vs ioctl.
      
      This patch simply applies (more exactly extends the already applied
      range of) tu->ioctl_lock in snd_timer_user_tread() for closing the
      race window.

      fs/exec.c: account for argv/envp pointers · d7575b38
      Kees Cook authored
      commit 98da7d08 upstream.
      
      When limiting the argv/envp strings during exec to 1/4 of the stack limit,
      the storage of the pointers to the strings was not included.  This means
      that an exec with huge numbers of tiny strings could eat 1/4 of the stack
      limit in strings and then additional space would be later used by the
      pointers to the strings.
      
      For example, on 32-bit with a 8MB stack rlimit, an exec with 1677721
      single-byte strings would consume less than 2MB of stack, the max (8MB /
      4) amount allowed, but the pointers to the strings would consume the
      remaining additional stack space (1677721 * 4 == 6710884).
      
      The result (1677721 + 6710884 == 8388605) would exhaust stack space
      entirely.  Controlling this stack exhaustion could result in
      pathological behavior in setuid binaries (CVE-2017-1000365).
