This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled x86: Reject x32 executables if x32 ABI not supported to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt2. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 62c3b5a2a6cdd672b0b657b84b6a7ffd3d8661ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> Date: Sun, 7 Sep 2014 21:05:05 +0100 Subject: x86: Reject x32 executables if x32 ABI not supported commit 0e6d3112a4e95d55cf6dca88f298d5f4b8f29bd1 upstream. It is currently possible to execve() an x32 executable on an x86_64 kernel that has only ia32 compat enabled. However all its syscalls will fail, even _exit(). This usually causes it to segfault. Change the ELF compat architecture check so that x32 executables are rejected if we don't support the x32 ABI.
