2018-05-24 13:40:11 Tyler Hicks description Hello, after running updates today to linux-image-4.4.0-127-generic_4.4.0-127.153 and rebooting i noticed that iotop is not working any more. Reason are empty lines in /proc/PID/status, which confuse iotop (and me) In new view there is an empy line between Seccomp and Speculation_Store_Bypass: #### Seccomp: 0 Speculation_Store_Bypass: vulnerable #### Speculation_Store_Bypass seems to be new in /proc/PID/status, may be a relation to spectre/meltdown patches. iotop is first application which is failing here, but iam afraid of more. Thanks [Impact] The CVE-2018-3639 for Xenial introduced a double newline sequence in the /proc/PID/status files. This breaks some userspace tools, such as iotop, that parse those files. [Test Case] Incorrect output in 4.4.0-127.153-generic: $ cat /proc/self/status ... Seccomp: 0 Speculation_Store_Bypass: thread vulnerable ... Expected output: $ cat /proc/self/status ... Seccomp: 0 Speculation_Store_Bypass: thread vulnerable ... [Regression Potential] None [Original Report] Hello, after running updates today to linux-image-4.4.0-127-generic_4.4.0-127.153 and rebooting i noticed that iotop is not working any more.
