commit 65a818baa4bcae96c1e9516420fcd87a2db3c863
Author: Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com>
Date: Tue Aug 4 12:20:20 2015 +0200
spec: Provide default-yama-scope.
When yama is enabled in the kernel it might be used to filter any user
space access which requires PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH like ptrace attach, access
to /proc/PID/{mem,personality,stack,syscall}, and the syscalls
process_vm_readv and process_vm_writev which are used for interprocess
services, communication and introspection (like synchronisation, signaling,
debugging, tracing and profiling) of processes.
These are precisely the things that libdw dwfl and ebl backends rely on.
So make sure they don't mysteriously fail in such cases by providing the
default yama scope sysctl value.
This is implemented as a separate subpackage that just provides this
functionality so other packages that don't directly rely on elfutils-libs
can also just Require: default-yama-scope to function properly.

+#
+# Usage of ptrace attach is restricted by normal user permissions. Normal
+# unprivileged processes cannot interact through ptrace with processes
+# that they cannot send signals to or processes that are running set-uid
+# or set-gid.
+#
+# yama ptrace scope can be used to reduce these permissions even more.
+# This should normally not be done because it will break various programs
+# relying on the default ptrace security restrictions. But can be used
+# if you don't have any other way to separate processes in their own
+# domains. A different way to restrict ptrace is to set the selinux
+# deny_ptrace boolean. Both mechanisms will break some programs relying
+# on the ptrace system call and might force users to elevate their
+# priviliges to root to do their work.
+#
+# For more information see Documentation/security/Yama.txt in the kernel
+# sources. Which also describes the defaults when CONFIG_SECURITY_YAMA
+# is enabled in a kernel build (currently 1 for ptrace_scope).
+#
+# This runtime kernel parameter can be set to the following options:
+# (Note that setting this to anything except zero will break programs!)
+#
+# 0 - Default attach security permissions.
+# 1 - Restricted attach. Only child processes plus normal permissions.
+# 2 - Admin-only attach. Only executables with CAP_SYS_PTRACE.
+# 3 - No attach. No process may call ptrace at all. Irrevocable.
