There are +only two conditions. First, the user must be able to perform su with +a successful login. This does NOT have to be the root user, even using +su with the same id is enough, e.g. "su $(whoami)". Second, SIGKILL +can only be sent to processes which were executed after the su process. +It is not possible to send SIGKILL to processes which were already +running. I consider this as a security vulnerability, because I was +able to write a proof of concept which unlocked a screen saver of +another user this way. + +Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/commit/08fd4b69e84364677a10e519ccb25b71710ee686] +CVE: CVE-2017-2616 +bug: 855943 +Signed-off-by: Andrej Valek <andrej.valek@siemens.com> + +diff --git a/src/su.c b/src/su.c +index 3704217..1efcd61 100644 +--- a/src/su.c ++++ b/src/su.c +@@ -363,20 +363,35 @@ static void prepare_pam_close_session (void) + /* wake child when resumed */ + kill (pid, SIGCONT); + stop = false; ++ } else { ++ pid_child = 0; + } + } while (!stop); + } + +- if (0 != caught) { ++ if (0 != caught && 0 != pid_child) { + (void) fputs ("\n", stderr); + (void) fputs (_("Session terminated, terminating shell..."), + stderr); + (void) kill (-pid_child, caught); + + (void) signal (SIGALRM, kill_child); ++ (void) signal (SIGCHLD, catch_signals); + (void) alarm (2); + +- (void) wait (&status); ++ sigemptyset (&ourset); ++ if ((sigaddset (&ourset, SIGALRM) != 0) ++ || (sigprocmask (SIG_BLOCK, &ourset, NULL) != 0)) { ++ fprintf (stderr, _("%s: signal masking malfunction\n"), Prog); ++ kill_child (0); ++ } else { ++ while (0 == waitpid (pid_child, &status, WNOHANG)) { ++ sigsuspend (&ourset); ++ } ++ pid_child = 0; ++ (void) sigprocmask (SIG_UNBLOCK, &ourset, NULL); ++ } ++ + (void) fputs (_(" ...terminated.\n"), stderr); + } + |
