Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2014 13:13:47 -0700 Message-Id: <1398197671-12786-90-git-send-email-kamal@canonical.com> X-Mailer: git-send-email 1.9.1 In-Reply-To: <1398197671-12786-1-git-send-email-kamal@canonical.com> References: <1398197671-12786-1-git-send-email-kamal@canonical.com> X-Extended-Stable: 3.8 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org 3.8.13.22 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Richard Guy Briggs commit c92cdeb45eea38515e82187f48c2e4f435fb4e25 upstream. sys_getppid() returns the parent pid of the current process in its own pid namespace. Since audit filters are based in the init pid namespace, a process could avoid a filter or trigger an unintended one by being in an alternate pid namespace or log meaningless information. Switch to task_ppid_nr() for PPIDs to anchor all audit filters in the init_pid_ns. (informed by ebiederman's 6c621b7e) Cc: Eric W.
