Liberation exploit kernel
L'architecture IA-32 permet aux programmes de définir des segments, qui fournissent une base et d'afficher les tailles limitées dans l'espace d'adresses du programme.
La structure du processeur résident en mémoire, appel local de la table de descripteur, généralement abrégé LTD, contient les définitions de segment.
Comme segments incorrects ou malveillants devraient être de violer l'intégrité du système, les opérations du système à la fin ne peut pas fournir un accès direct aux processus LDT, mais devrait être de fournir les soi-disant appels système qui permettent l'installation et l'élimination contrôlée des segments.
Le bug a été décrit comme une combinaison spéciale de sujets dans sysarch (2), la demande spécifique est une suppression de toute une série de descripteurs de la LTD.
Cette vulnérabilité pourrait entraîner ce qu'on appelle une panique du noyau . Il est également possible d'effectuer un déni de service local au système qui nous permettrait d'obtenir des processus privilégiés.

FreeBSD-SA-16:15.sysarch [REVISED] Security Advisory

For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
following sections, please visit <URL:https://security.FreeBSD.org/>.
0. Revision history
v1.0 2016-03-16 Initial release.
v1.1 2016-10-25 Revised patch to address a problem pointed out by
ahaha from Chaitin Tech.
I. Background
The IA-32 architecture allows programs to define segments, which provides
based and size-limited view into the program address space. The
memory-resident processor structure, called Local Descriptor Table,
usually abbreviated LDT, contains definitions of the segments. Since
incorrect or malicious segments would breach system integrity, operating
systems do not provide processes direct access to the LDT, instead
they provide system calls which allow controlled installation and removal
of segments.
II. Problem Description
A special combination of sysarch(2) arguments, specify a request to
uninstall a set of descriptors from the LDT. The start descriptor
is cleared and the number of descriptors are provided. Due to lack
of sufficient bounds checking during argument validity verification,
unbound zero'ing of the process LDT and adjacent memory can be initiated
from usermode.
III. Impact
This vulnerability could cause the kernel to panic. In addition it is
possible to perform a local Denial of Service against the system by
unprivileged processes.
IV. Workaround
No workaround is available, but only the amd64 architecture is affected.
V. Solution
Perform one of the following:
1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to a supported FreeBSD stable or
release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date.
Reboot is required.
2) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch:
Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD platforms can be updated
via the freebsd-update(8) utility:
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
Reboot is required.
3) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch:
The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable
FreeBSD release branches.
[*** v1.1 NOTE ***] If your sources are not yet patched using the initially
published advisory patches, then you need to apply both sysarch.patch and
sysarch-01.patch. If your sources are already updated, or patched with
patches from the initial advisory, then you need to apply sysarch-01.patch
only.
a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.
[ FreeBSD system not patched with original SA-16:15 patch]
# fetch
https://security.Fre...5/sysarch.patch
# fetch
https://security.Fre...sarch.patch.asc
# gpg --verify sysarch.patch.asc
[ FreeBSD system that has been patched with original SA-16:15 patch]
# fetch
https://security.Fre...ysarch-01.patch
# fetch
https://security.Fre...ch-01.patch.asc
# gpg --verify sysarch-01.patch.asc
Apply the patch(es). Execute the following commands as root for
every patch file downloaded:
# cd /usr/src
# patch < /path/to/patch
c) Recompile your kernel as described in
<URL:https://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html> and reboot the
system.
