Subject: [PATCH V33 06/30] kexec_load: Disable at runtime if the kernel is locked down
Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2019 18:19:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190621011941.186255-7-matthewgarrett@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190621011941.186255-1-matthewgarrett@google.com>
From: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org>
The kexec_load() syscall permits the loading and execution of arbitrary
code in ring 0, which is something that lock-down is meant to prevent. It
makes sense to disable kexec_load() in this situation.
This does not affect kexec_file_load() syscall which can check for a
signature on the image to be booted.
