While the kernel is built with warnings enabled for any missed
|
|
stack variable initializations, this warning is silenced for
|
|
anything passed by reference to another function, under the
|
|
occasionally misguided assumption that the function will do
|
|
the initialization. As this regularly leads to exploitable
|
|
flaws, this plugin is available to identify and zero-initialize
|
|
such variables, depending on the chosen level of coverage.

This option enables initialization of stack variables at
|
|
function entry time. This has the possibility to have the
|
|
greatest coverage (since all functions can have their
|
|
variables initialized), but the performance impact depends
|
|
on the function calling complexity of a given workload's
|
|
syscalls.
|
|
|

This chooses the level of coverage over classes of potentially

uninitialized variables. The selected class of variable will be

initialized before use in a function.

Pattern initialization is known to provoke many existing bugs
|
|
related to uninitialized locals, e.g. pointers receive
|
|
non-NULL values, buffer sizes and indices are very big. The
|
|
pattern is situation-specific; Clang on 64-bit uses 0xAA

repeating for all types and padding except float and double

which use 0xFF repeating (-NaN). Clang on 32-bit uses 0xFF

Zero initialization provides safe defaults for strings
|

(immediately NUL-terminated), pointers (NULL), indices
|

(index 0), and sizes (0 length), so it is therefore more
|
|
suitable as a production security mitigation than pattern
|

initialization.

help
|
|
This option makes the kernel erase the kernel stack before
|
|
returning from system calls. This has the effect of leaving
|
|
the stack initialized to the poison value, which both reduces
|
|
the lifetime of any sensitive stack contents and reduces
|
|
potential for uninitialized stack variable exploits or information
|
|
exposures (it does not cover functions reaching the same stack
|
|
depth as prior functions during the same syscall). This blocks
|
|
most uninitialized stack variable attacks, with the performance
|
|
impact being driven by the depth of the stack usage, rather than
|
|
the function calling complexity.
|
|
|
|
The performance impact on a single CPU system kernel compilation
|
|
sees a 1% slowdown, other systems and workloads may vary and you
|

are advised to test this feature on your expected workload before

deploying it.

|

allocator memory will be zeroed when allocated, eliminating
|
|
many kinds of "uninitialized heap memory" flaws, especially

heap content exposures. The performance impact varies by

This has the effect of setting "init_on_free=1" on the kernel

|
|
Similar to "init_on_alloc", when "init_on_free" is enabled,
|
|
all page allocator and slab allocator memory will be zeroed
|
|
when freed, eliminating many kinds of "uninitialized heap memory"
|
|
flaws, especially heap content exposures. The primary difference
|
|
with "init_on_free" is that data lifetime in memory is reduced,
|
|
as anything freed is wiped immediately, making live forensics or
|
|
cold boot memory attacks unable to recover freed memory contents.
|
|
The performance impact varies by workload, but is more expensive
|
|
than "init_on_alloc" due to the negative cache effects of
|
|
touching "cold" memory areas. Most cases see 3-5% impact. Some
|
|
synthetic workloads have measured as high as 8%.

help
|
|
At the end of functions, always zero any caller-used register
|
|
contents. This helps ensure that temporary values are not
|
|
leaked beyond the function boundary. This means that register
|
|
contents are less likely to be available for side channels
|
|
and information exposures. Additionally, this helps reduce the
|
|
number of useful ROP gadgets by about 20% (and removes compiler
|
|
generated "write-what-where" gadgets) in the resulting kernel
|
|
image. This has a less than 1% performance impact on most
|
|
workloads. Image size growth depends on architecture, and should
|
|
be evaluated for suitability. For example, x86_64 grows by less
|
|
than 1%, and arm64 grows by about 5%.
