From 848cd959a1d95625ae12ff763508364f517ab858 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Fri, 23 Jun 2017 15:08:57 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fs/exec.c: account for argv/envp pointers commit 98da7d08850fb8bdeb395d6368ed15753304aa0c 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).
