Subject[PATCH 4.16 068/279] proc: revalidate kernel thread inodes to root:root
Date
4.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 2e0ad552f5f8cd0fda02bc45fcd2b89821c62fd1 ]

task_dump_owner() has the following code:

mm = task->mm;
if (mm) {
if (get_dumpable(mm) != SUID_DUMP_USER) {
uid = ...
}
}

Check for ->mm is buggy -- kernel thread might be borrowing mm
and inode will go to some random uid:gid pair.
