In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
entry: Fix seccomp bypass after ptrace with TSYNC
Sashiko review pointed out the following issue.
If a thread is stopped in syscall_trace_enter() for ptrace, another
thread can install a seccomp filter with SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_TSYNC
(e.g., via seccomp_attach_filter()). This will successfully set
SYSCALL_WORK_SECCOMP on the stopped thread, but syscall_trace_enter()
evaluates a cached 'work' variable sampled on entry. Consequently,
the subsequent check for SYSCALL_WORK_SECCOMP misses the newly
assigned flag, and the filter is silently bypassed.
This race condition could allow an unprivileged process to execute
a prohibited system call (e.g., execve) that the newly installed filter
was intended to block, especially since the tracer might have modified
the system call number during the ptrace stop.
Fix this by re-reading the syscall_work flags after ptrace handling,
so that any new SYSCALL_WORK_SECCOMP flag set by another thread via
TSYNC during the ptrace stop is observed before the subsequent
seccomp check.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A race condition exists where a seccomp filter, intended to restrict system calls, can be bypassed by an unprivileged process. This occurs when a thread is stopped for tracing (ptrace) and another thread attempts to apply a seccomp filter with the SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_TSYNC flag. Due to a caching issue, the newly installed filter is not properly enforced, allowing the unprivileged process to execute system calls that should have been blocked, potentially leading to a security bypass.
