Subject[ 10/48] ASLR: fix stack randomization on 64-bit systems
2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hector Marco-Gisbert <hecmargi@upv.es>

commit 4e7c22d447bb6d7e37bfe39ff658486ae78e8d77 upstream

The issue is that the stack for processes is not properly randomized on 64 bit
architectures due to an integer overflow.

The affected function is randomize_stack_top() in file "fs/binfmt_elf.c":

static unsigned long randomize_stack_top(unsigned long stack_top)
{
unsigned int random_variable = 0;

if ((current->flags & PF_RANDOMIZE) &&
!(current->personality & ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE)) {
random_variable = get_random_int() & STACK_RND_MASK;
random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
}
return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) + random_variable;
return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) - random_variable;
}

Note that, it declares the "random_variable" variable as "unsigned int". Since
the result of the shifting operation between STACK_RND_MASK (which is
0x3fffff on x86_64, 22 bits) and PAGE_SHIFT (which is 12 on x86_64):

random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;

then the two leftmost bits are dropped when storing the result in the
"random_variable". This variable shall be at least 34 bits long to hold the
(22+12) result.

These two dropped bits have an impact on the entropy of process stack.
Concretely, the total stack entropy is reduced by four: from 2^28 to 2^30 (One
fourth of expected entropy).

This patch restores back the entropy by correcting the types involved in the
operations in the functions randomize_stack_top() and stack_maxrandom_size().

The successful fix can be tested with:
$ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep stack; done
7ffeda566000-7ffeda587000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7fff5a332000-7fff5a353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7ffcdb7a1000-7ffcdb7c2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7ffd5e2c4000-7ffd5e2e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
...

Once corrected, the leading bytes should be between 7ffc and 7fff, rather
than always being 7fff.
