Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole
> Ok, I can see what's going on. And it's disgusting.
That's what I thought when I saw TIF_32BIT in seccomp.
I did the simplest fix I could see touching only x86.
I don't know any other arch well enough to be sure that TIF_32BIT isn't the
wrong test there too. I'd like to leave that worry to the arch maintainers.
But here is the patch you asked for.
Thanks,
Roland

[PATCH] x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.
In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use
the wrong system call number table. The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT
instead of TIF_IA32. Here is an example exploit:
/* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64
There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32.
The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could
be any chmod call). The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do
stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly.
A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a
fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything.
