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
