Subject: [PATCH -mm 1/1] ptrace: PTRACE_GETFDPIC: fix the unsafe usage of
Date: Sat, 22 May 2010 14:55:20 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100522165401.GB19573@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100522165320.GA19573@redhat.com>
Now that Mike Frysinger unified the FDPIC ptrace code, we can fix
the unsafe usage of child->mm in ptrace_request(PTRACE_GETFDPIC).
We have the reference to task_struct, and ptrace_check_attach()
verified the tracee is stopped. But nothing can protect from
SIGKILL after that, we must not assume child->mm != NULL.
