McKenney" , Ingo Molnar , Josh Triplett , Andy Lutomirski , Nicolas Pitre , Tejun Heo , Daniel Mack , Sebastian Andrzej Siewior , Sergey Senozhatsky , Helge Deller , Rik van Riel , linux-mm@kvack.org, Tycho Andersen , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, kernel-hardening@lists.openwall.com This SLUB free list pointer obfuscation code is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code. This adds a per-cache random value to SLUB caches that is XORed with their freelist pointer address and value. This adds nearly zero overhead and frustrates the very common heap overflow exploitation method of overwriting freelist pointers. A recent example of the attack is written up here: http://cyseclabs.com/blog/cve-2016-6187-heap-off-by-one-exploit This is based on patches by Daniel Micay, and refactored to minimize the use of #ifdef. Under 200-count cycles of "hackbench -g 20 -l 1000" I saw the following run times: before: mean 10.11882499999999999995 variance .03320378329145728642 stdev .18221905304181911048 after: mean 10.12654000000000000014 variance .04700556623115577889 stdev .21680767106160192064 The difference gets lost in the noise, but if the above is to be taken literally, using CONFIG_FREELIST_HARDENED is 0.07% slower.
