-Subject: [PATCH 2/4] Fix: filter interpreter early-exits on uninitialized
- value
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-I observed that syscall filtering on string arguments wouldn't work on
-my development machines, both running 5.11.2-arch1-1 (Arch Linux).
-
-For instance, enabling the tracing of the `openat()` syscall with the
-'filename == "/proc/cpuinfo"' filter would not produce events even
-though matching events were present in another session that had no
-filtering active. The same problem occurred with `execve()`.
-
-I tried a couple of kernel versions before (5.11.1 and 5.10.13, if
-memory serves me well) and I had the same problem. Meanwhile, I couldn't
-reproduce the problem on various Debian machines (the LTTng CI) nor on a
-fresh Ubuntu 20.04 with both the stock kernel and with an updated 5.11.2
-kernel.
-
-I built the lttng-modules with the interpreter debugging printout and
-saw the following warning:
- LTTng: [debug bytecode in /home/jgalar/EfficiOS/src/lttng-modules/src/lttng-bytecode-interpreter.c:bytecode_interpret@1508] Bytecode warning: loading a NULL string.
-
-After a shedload (yes, a _shed_load) of digging, I figured that the
-problem was hidden in plain sight near that logging statement.
-
-In the `BYTECODE_OP_LOAD_FIELD_REF_USER_STRING` operation, the 'ax'
-register's 'user_str' is initialized with the stack value (the user
-space string's address in our case). However, a NULL check is performed
-against the register's 'str' member.
-
-I initialy suspected that both members would be part of the same union
-and alias each-other, but they are actually contiguous in a structure.
-
-On the unaffected machines, I could confirm that the `str` member was
-uninitialized to a non-zero value causing the condition to evaluate to
-false.
-
-Francis Deslauriers reproduced the problem by initializing the
-interpreter stack to zero.
-
-I am unsure of the exact kernel configuration option that reveals this
-issue on Arch Linux, but my kernel has the following option enabled:
-
-CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL:
- Zero-initialize any stack variables that may be passed by reference
- and had not already been explicitly initialized. This is intended to
- eliminate all classes of uninitialized stack variable exploits and
- information exposures.
-
-I have not tried to build without this enabled as, anyhow, this seems
-to be a legitimate issue.
-
-I have spotted what appears to be an identical problem in
-`BYTECODE_OP_LOAD_FIELD_REF_USER_SEQUENCE` and corrected it. However,
-I have not exercised that code path.
-
-The commit that introduced this problem is 5b4ad89.
-
-The debug print-out of the `BYTECODE_OP_LOAD_FIELD_REF_USER_STRING`
-operation is modified to print the user string (truncated to 31 chars).
-
-Upstream-status: backport
