Unfortunately, this includes function +tracing and normal users should not be allowed to enable function +tracing by default. + +The proper level is defined at "-1" (full perf access), which +"perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" will only give access to. Use that +check instead for enabling function tracing. + +Reported-by: Dave Jones +Reported-by: Vince Weaver +Tested-by: Vince Weaver +Cc: Peter Zijlstra +Cc: Ingo Molnar +Cc: Jiri Olsa +Cc: Frederic Weisbecker +CVE: CVE-2013-2930 +Fixes: ced39002f5ea ("ftrace, perf: Add support to use function tracepoint in perf") +Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt +Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman + +--- + kernel/trace/trace_event_perf.c | 2 +- + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) + +--- a/kernel/trace/trace_event_perf.c ++++ b/kernel/trace/trace_event_perf.c +@@ -26,7 +26,7 @@ static int perf_trace_event_perm(struct + { + /* The ftrace function trace is allowed only for root. */ + if (ftrace_event_is_function(tp_event) && +- perf_paranoid_kernel() && !capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN)) ++ perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw() && !capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN)) + return -EPERM; + + /* No tracing, just counting, so no obvious leak */ diff --git a/queue-3.12/series b/queue-3.12/series index e0c1d593e68..36d06f5722d 100644 --- a/queue-3.12/series +++ b/queue-3.12/series @@ -17,3 +17,4 @@ drm-nvc0-gr-fix-a-number-of-missing-explicit-array-terminators.patch thinkpad_acpi-fix-build-error-when-config_snd_max_cards-32.patch arm-omap2-hwmod-check-for-module-address-space-during-init.patch sched-idle-fix-the-idle-polling-state-logic.patch +perf-ftrace-fix-paranoid-level-for-enabling-function-tracer.patch
