b52a267404 Fixes small bug in struct proc_t documentation.
From http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/proc.5.html:

(22) starttime  %llu
                        The time the process started after system boot.  In
                        kernels before Linux 2.6, this value was expressed
                        in jiffies.  Since Linux 2.6, the value is expressed
                        in clock ticks (divide by sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK)).

8e0c33be46 library: adapted to the latest lxc conventions (again)
Well, shit! With release 4.0 on March 25th the lxc/lxd
folks have stuck it to us once again. They changed the
cgroup lxc prefix used to identify the container name.

2e7f38707a library: tweak that lxc container support a final time
Since the patch referenced below traded a compile-time
'sizeof' directive for a run-time 'strlen' call, there
is no need to declare lxc patterns as explicit arrays.

We'll also use the actual lxc patterns by omitting the
beginning slashes ('/') for both of those definitions.

And, looking to the future when most/all lxc users are
using the most recent lxc release, we will make things
slightly more efficient by reversing those two pattern
literals so the most recent pattern was checked first.

Of course, such a change only benefits tasks which are
running in a container. For the majority of processes,
both literals will be compared in that 'if' statement,
assuming the 'LXC' field is currently being displayed.

[ plus, a leftover parenthesis pair has been removed ]

f67127e728 library: adapt readproc for the latest lxc conventions
The merge request shown below prompted (thankfully) an
examination of our lxc containers logic in readproc.c.

As it turns out, the lxc folks changed that eyecatcher
used to identify containers within a task cgroup file.

So this patch, with little extra cost, will enable the
libprocps lxc_containers() guy to handle both strings.

[ additionally, I was shocked to find lxc allows the ]
[ eyecatcher to be changed at ./configure time. such ]
[ a provision has always existed. unfortunately, the ]
[ changed value was only available to root, assuming ]
[ one wished to tackle that undocumented liblxc api. ]

f9a8009e27 library: avoid problems involving 'supgid' mishandling
Following that patch referenced below, the top SUPGRPS
field would produce a segmentation fault and ps SUPGRP
would often show "(null)". Such problems resulted from
some faulty logic in the status2proc() routine dealing
with 'Groups' (supgid) which served as a source field.

For many processes the original code produced an empty
string which prevented conversion to the expected "-".
Moreover, prior to release 3.3.15 such an empty string
will become 0 after strtol() which pwcache_get_group()
translates to 'root' yielding very misleading results.

So, now we'll check for empty '/proc/#/status/Groups:'
fields & consistently provide a "-" value for callers.

[ we'll also protect against future problems in that ]
[ new qualys logic by always ensuring valid 'supgrp' ]
[ pointers - logic which revealed our original flaw! ]

2cfdbbe897 library: Increase comm length to 64
For many years, the comm length has been set to 16. Previously to that
it was 8. This means for things like kworkers they all have very cryptic
names. The kernel is now going to increase this size to 64, so the
procps library will follow this length increase.

System tools may also increase their default length to 64, or keep it at
16; there is only so much screen real estate.

14758ebc8f proc/readproc.c: Work around a design flaw in readeither().
readeither() caches (in new_p) a pointer to the proc_t of a task-group
leader, but readeither()'s callers can do pretty much anything with the
proc_t structure passed to and/or returned by this function. For
example, they can 1/ free it or 2/ recycle it (by passing it to
readeither() as x).

1/ leads to a use-after-free, and 2/ leads to unexpected behavior when
taskreader()/simple_readtask() is called with new_p equal to x (this is
not a theoretical flaw: 2/ happens in readproctab3() when want_task()
returns false and p is a group leader).

As a workaround, we keep a copy of new_p's first member (tid) in static
storage, and the next times we enter readeither() we check this "canary"
against the tid in new_p: if they differ, we reset new_p to NULL, which
forces the allocation of a new proc_t (the new "leader", or reference).

This always detects 2/ (because free_acquired(x,1) memsets x and hence
new_p); always detects 1/ if freed via free_acquired() and/or freeproc()
(very likely, otherwise memory may be leaked); probably detects 1/ even
if freed directly via free() (because the canary is the first member of
proc_t, likely to be overwritten by free()); but can not detect 1/ if
free() does not write to new_p's chunk at all.

Moreover, accessing new_p->tid to check the canary in case 1/ is itself
a use-after-free, so a better long-term solution should be implemented
at some point (we wanted to avoid intrusive and backward-incompatible
changes in this library function, hence this imperfect workaround).

94eebb03b5 proc/readproc.c: Prevent integer overflows in readproctab*().
If an integer overflow is about to be reached, call xalloc_err_handler()
(since it would have been caught by calloc() or reallocarray()) and then
exit(): these integer overflows are far from reachable, with the current
PID_MAX_LIMIT (2^22), so if they are there is something very wrong going
on. Note: we check the n_*alloc variables against INT_MAX even when they
are size_t because they are later stored as int in a struct proc_data_t.

a013f6e020 proc/readproc.c: Fix double-free()s in readtask().
If QUICK_THREADS is not defined (it is not by default, but most
distributions enable it) and task_dir_missing is true (only on very old
kernels), then readtask() forgets to reset some of the struct proc_t t's
members, which later results in double-free()s in free_acquired().

For now, we simply synchronized the list of members to be reset with the
list of members freed in free_acquired().

1539c13507 proc/readproc.c: Fix use-after-free in readproctab2().
The memset() in the PROC_LOOSE_TASKS loop leaves a struct proc_t
uninitialized (the one at data+n_used), which leads to a use-after-free.

ps calls readproctab2(), but only if !TF_loose_tasks, and this U-A-F is
triggered only if PROC_LOOSE_TASKS, so there seems to be no vulnerable
call in the procps package itself (other users of the libprocps may be
vulnerable, though).

36c350f07c proc/readproc.c: Fix bugs and overflows in file2strvec().
Note: this is by far the most important and complex patch of the whole
series, please review it carefully; thank you very much!

For this patch, we decided to keep the original function's design and
skeleton, to avoid regressions and behavior changes, while fixing the
various bugs and overflows. And like the "Harden file2str()" patch, this
patch does not fail when about to overflow, but truncates instead: there
is information available about this process, so return it to the caller;
also, we used INT_MAX as a limit, but a lower limit could be used.

The easy changes:

- Replace sprintf() with snprintf() (and check for truncation).

- Replace "if (n == 0 && rbuf == 0)" with "if (n <= 0 && tot <= 0)" and
  do break instead of return: it simplifies the code (only one place to
  handle errors), and also guarantees that in the while loop either n or
  tot is > 0 (or both), even if n is reset to 0 when about to overflow.

- Remove the "if (n < 0)" block in the while loop: it is (and was) dead
  code, since we enter the while loop only if n >= 0.

- Rewrite the missing-null-terminator detection: in the original
  function, if the size of the file is a multiple of 2047, a null-
  terminator is appended even if the file is already null-terminated.

- Replace "if (n <= 0 && !end_of_file)" with "if (n < 0 || tot <= 0)":
  originally, it was equivalent to "if (n < 0)", but we added "tot <= 0"
  to handle the first break of the while loop, and to guarantee that in
  the rest of the function tot is > 0.

- Double-force ("belt and suspenders") the null-termination of rbuf:
  this is (and was) essential to the correctness of the function.

- Replace the final "while" loop with a "for" loop that behaves just
  like the preceding "for" loop: in the original function, this would
  lead to unexpected results (for example, if rbuf is |\0|A|\0|, this
  would return the array {"",NULL} but should return {"","A",NULL}; and
  if rbuf is |A|\0|B| (should never happen because rbuf should be null-
  terminated), this would make room for two pointers in ret, but would
  write three pointers to ret).

The hard changes:

- Prevent the integer overflow of tot in the while loop, but unlike
  file2str(), file2strvec() cannot let tot grow until it almost reaches
  INT_MAX, because it needs more space for the pointers: this is why we
  introduced ARG_LEN, which also guarantees that we can add "align" and
  a few sizeof(char*)s to tot without overflowing.

- Prevent the integer overflow of "tot + c + align": when INT_MAX is
  (almost) reached, we write the maximal safe amount of pointers to ret
  (ARG_LEN guarantees that there is always space for *ret = rbuf and the
  NULL terminator).

ccf8de0874 proc/readproc.c: Harden file2str().
1/ Replace sprintf() with snprintf() (and check for truncation).

2/ Prevent an integer overflow of ub->siz. The "tot_read--" is needed to
avoid an off-by-one overflow in "ub->buf[tot_read] = '\0'". It is safe
to decrement tot_read here, because we know that tot_read is equal to
ub->siz (and ub->siz is very large).

We believe that truncation is a better option than failure (implementing
failure instead should be as easy as replacing the "tot_read--" with
"tot_read = 0").

6fb2bbaa0d proc/readproc.c: Harden status2proc().
1/ Do not read past the terminating null byte when hashing the name.

2/ S[x] is used as an index, but S is "char *S" (signed) and hence may
index the array out-of-bounds. Bit-mask S[x] with 127 (the array has 128
entries).

3/ Use a size_t for j, not an int (strlen() returns a size_t).

Notes:

- These are (mostly) theoretical problems, because the contents of
  /proc/PID/status are (mostly) trusted.

- The "name" member of the status_table_struct has 8 bytes, and
  "RssShmem" occupies exactly 8 bytes, which means that "name" is not
  null-terminated. This is fine right now, because status2proc() uses
  memcmp(), not strcmp(), but it is worth mentioning.

f1077b7a55 proc/alloc.*: Use size_t, not unsigned int.
Otherwise this can truncate sizes on 64-bit platforms, and is one of the
reasons the integer overflows in file2strvec() are exploitable at all.
Also: catch potential integer overflow in xstrdup() (should never
happen, but better safe than sorry), and use memcpy() instead of
strcpy() (faster).

Warnings:

- in glibc, realloc(ptr, 0) is equivalent to free(ptr), but not here,
  because of the ++size;

- here, xstrdup() can return NULL (if str is NULL), which goes against
  the idea of the xalloc wrappers.

We were tempted to call exit() or xerrx() in those cases, but decided
against it, because it might break things in unexpected places; TODO?

has SIGLOST defined *and* is not Hurd.

Just check its defined, its much simpler.
