Hi Robin,
(As previously I could not copy to linux-kernel I am sending it again)
Thanks for your time.
I have loaded the module sent with some changes and got some results.
I got 2 people to login remotely using telnet.
as herft and as herft1
herft runs a small executable called ./myprog.
The reseults I got is as follows in var/log/messages
Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1193 uid 0 euid 0 Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1220 uid 0 euid 0 Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1251 uid 0 euid 0--->this is telnet Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1252 uid 0 euid 0 Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1253 uid 500 euid 500 --->this is bash Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1381 uid 500 euid 500--->This is exec Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1383 uid 0 euid 0---->telnet Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1384 uid 0 euid 0 Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1385 uid 501 euid 501---->This is bash Jan 8 03:46:23 sena kernel: Pid 1417 uid 0 euid 0
Then I ps -ale
The result is as follows UID PID 100 S 0 1251 638 0 69 0 - 426 do_sel ? 00:00:00 in.telnetd-----------This is telnet 100 S 0 1252 1251 0 69 0 - 599 wait4 ? 00:00:00 login 100 S 500 1253 1252 0 69 0 - 1009 wait4 pts/4 00:00:00-------- bash 000 S 500 1381 1253 0 69 0 - 309 nanosl pts/4 00:00:00----------- myprog 100 S 0 1383 638 0 69 0 - 426 do_sel ? 00:00:00 in.telnetd----------This is telnet 100 S 0 1384 1383 0 69 0 - 599 wait4 ? 00:00:00 login 100 S 501 1385 1384 0 68 0 - 1009 read_c pts/5 00:00:00--------- bash 100 R 0 1795 1220 0 74 0 - 762 - pts/3 00:00:00 ps
I probably got the same thing as yours. This means task_struct uid has got its owners uids in the processes started through telnet. but telnet servers uid=0
This means either I will have to consider telnet thing as root (though it is started by the user login)
or
What do you think Robin?
