Subject: check_unsafe_exec: s/lock_task_sighand/rcu_read_lock/
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=437f7fdb607f32b737e4da9f14bebcfdac2c90c3;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

check_unsafe_exec: s/lock_task_sighand/rcu_read_lock/

write_lock(&current->fs->lock) guarantees we can't wrongly miss
LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE, this is what we care about. Use rcu_read_lock()
instead of ->siglock to iterate over the sub-threads. We must see
all CLONE_THREAD|CLONE_FS threads which didn't pass exit_fs(), it
takes fs->lock too.

With or without this patch we can miss the freshly cloned thread
and set LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE, we don't care.
