Description (last modified by )
Here's a full list of source files containing syscall implementations:
- OK
src/system/kernel/arch/arm/arch_atomic32.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/arch/arm/arch_atomic64.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/arch/m68k/arch_atomic.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/arch/x86/arch_system_info.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/arch/x86/syscalls_compat.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/debug/debug.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/debug/frame_buffer_console.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/debug/safemode_settings.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/debug/system_profiler.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/debug/tracing.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/debug/user_debugger.cpp - NEEDSWORK src/system/kernel/disk_device_manager/ddm_userland_interface.cpp
- OK
src/system/kernel/UserTimer.cpp - OK
src/system/kernel/cpu.cpp - OK

- src/system/kernel/posix/realtime_sem.cpp
- src/system/kernel/posix/xsi_message_queue.cpp
- src/system/kernel/posix/xsi_semaphore.cpp

- src/system/kernel/scheduler/scheduler.cpp

- src/system/kernel/thread.cpp
- src/system/kernel/usergroup.cpp
- src/system/kernel/vm/vm.cpp
- src/system/kernel/wait_for_objects.cpp
Each and every one of these needs to be audited, namely:
- All passed pointers are checked against
IS_USER_ADDRESS
(thanks to SMAP, largely already done) - All objects (e.g. FDs, areas, semaphores) manipulated by syscalls are checked that the calling team has access to manipulate them
- Whatever other things I think of adding here...

Just for the record: I already added thread syscall permissions checks in hrev52825~1, and the first level of VM area access checks in hrev52546~2.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Did the first pass on the first few files.
safemode_settings
does not do any access checks; any application is allowed to read (not write, that can't be done via syscall) safemode settings. I think that's OK? Otherwise the file is fine.system_profiler
also does not seem to do permissions checks. I think that we expose quite a lot of information in that, so it should probably only allow root to run the profiler?
