Title:
Request cherry-pick of upstream kernel patch which caps
SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO to MAX_ERRNO
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
The seccomp regression tests are failing due to SRU kernels not having
the relevant commit:
Author: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue Feb 17 13:48:00 2015 -0800
seccomp: cap SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO data to MAX_ERRNO
The value resulting from the SECCOMP_RET_DATA mask could exceed MAX_ERRNO
when setting errno during a SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO filter action. This makes
sure we have a reliable value being set, so that an invalid errno will not
be ignored by userspace.
