From 3ead7c52bdb0ab44f4bb1feed505a8323cc12ba7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amanieu d'Antras Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2015 15:46:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] signalfd: fix information leak in signalfd_copyinfo This function may copy the si_addr_lsb field to user mode when it hasn't been initialized, which can leak kernel stack data to user mode. Just checking the value of si_code is insufficient because the same si_code value is shared between multiple signals. This is solved by checking the value of si_signo in addition to si_code.
