* posix-timers: Sanitize overrun handlingThomas Gleixner2018-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 78c9c4dfbf8c04883941445a195276bb4bb92c76 upstream. The posix timer overrun handling is broken because the forwarding functions can return a huge number of overruns which does not fit in an int. As a consequence timer_getoverrun(2) and siginfo::si_overrun can turn into random number generators. The k_clock::timer_forward() callbacks return a 64 bit value now. Make k_itimer::ti_overrun[_last] 64bit as well, so the kernel internal accounting is correct. 3Remove the temporary (int) casts. Add a helper function which clamps the overrun value returned to user space via timer_getoverrun(2) or siginfo::si_overrun limited to a positive value between 0 and INT_MAX. INT_MAX is an indicator for user space that the overrun value has been clamped.

* posix-timer: Properly check sigevent->sigev_notifyThomas Gleixner2018-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit cef31d9af908243421258f1df35a4a644604efbe upstream. timer_create() specifies via sigevent->sigev_notify the signal delivery for the new timer. The valid modes are SIGEV_NONE, SIGEV_SIGNAL, SIGEV_THREAD and (SIGEV_SIGNAL | SIGEV_THREAD_ID). The sanity check in good_sigevent() is only checking the valid combination for the SIGEV_THREAD_ID bit, i.e. SIGEV_SIGNAL, but if SIGEV_THREAD_ID is not set it accepts any random value. This has no real effects on the posix timer and signal delivery code, but it affects show_timer() which handles the output of /proc/$PID/timers. That function uses a string array to pretty print sigev_notify. The access to that array has no bound checks, so random sigev_notify cause access beyond the array bounds. Add proper checks for the valid notify modes and remove the SIGEV_THREAD_ID masking from various code pathes as SIGEV_NONE can never be set in combination with SIGEV_THREAD_ID.

* posix-timers: Handle relative timers with CONFIG_TIME_LOW_RES properThomas Gleixner2016-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 572c39172684c3711e4a03c9a7380067e2b0661c upstream. As Helge reported for timerfd we have the same issue in posix timers. We return remaining time larger than the programmed relative time to user space in case of CONFIG_TIME_LOW_RES=y. Use the proper function to adjust the extra time added in hrtimer_start_range_ns().

* posix-timers: Fix stack info leak in timer_create()Mathias Krause2014-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If userland creates a timer without specifying a sigevent info, we'll create one ourself, using a stack local variable. Particularly will we use the timer ID as sival_int. But as sigev_value is a union containing a pointer and an int, that assignment will only partially initialize sigev_value on systems where the size of a pointer is bigger than the size of an int. On such systems we'll copy the uninitialized stack bytes from the timer_create() call to userland when the timer actually fires and we're going to deliver the signal. Initialize sigev_value with 0 to plug the stack info leak. Found in the PaX patch, written by the PaX Team. Fixes: 5a9fa7307285 ("posix-timers: kill ->it_sigev_signo and...")
