2020-12-25 | Kernel+LibC: Introduce a "dumpable" flag for processes | Andreas Kling | |
This new flag controls two things: - Whether the kernel will generate core dumps for the process - Whether the EUID:EGID should own the process's files in /proc Processes are automatically made non-dumpable when their EUID or EGID is changed, either via syscalls that specifically modify those ID's, or via sys$execve(), when a set-uid or set-gid program is executed. A process can change its own dumpable flag at any time by calling the new sys$prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE) syscall. Fixes #4504. |
