Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] audit: free proctitle in context so it can be re-set by fork on exec_binprm
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2026 18:36:40 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260818183641.5370C1F000E9@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <ef5bf18a4b3805ec0fe5fb638963ccbdfc01d6fe.1787077711.git.rgb@redhat.com>
> Between the actual process startup (fork systemd) and the executable file
> replacement (exec), systemd sets a temporary file name (executable file
> name in parentheses). If an auditable system call occurs at this point,
> the audit context will latch the temporary process name into the cache.
> This name will not change again. The patch clears proctitle into the
> audit cache when the exec call is made, allowing the new process name to
> be latched.
