From 9eab339b197a6903043d272295dcb716ff739b21 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Guy Briggs Date: Sat, 15 Mar 2014 18:42:34 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] audit: get comm using lock to avoid race in string printing When task->comm is passed directly to audit_log_untrustedstring() without getting a copy or using the task_lock, there is a race that could happen that would output a NULL (\0) in the output string that would effectively truncate the rest of the report text after the comm= field in the audit, losing fields. Use get_task_comm() to get a copy while acquiring the task_lock to prevent this and to prevent the result from being a mixture of old and new values of comm.
