2026-05-15 09:04:17 +00:00 | -5 commits to c8 since this releaseptrace: kABI-safe replacement of get_dumpable() fix
The previous 124.56.4 shipped the upstream patch 31e62c2ebbfd as-is,
which adds an 'unsigned user_dumpable:1' bit to task_struct. That
layout change broke kABI: the symtype signature of struct task_struct
is referenced by hundreds of stablelist exports, all of which got
flagged by check-kabi during build.Replace with a minimal kABI-safe slice that only touches
kernel/ptrace.c: when task->mm == NULL, require CAP_SYS_PTRACE in
init_user_ns unconditionally. This closes the Qualys advisory hole
without modifying task_struct or exit_mm(). The behavioural delta vs
upstream is that an already-exited user task whose mm has been
cleared now also requires CAP_SYS_PTRACE.Downloads
