Carlos O'Donell 2016-11-02 16:19:47 UTC Doc Text Cause: Certain internal library calls failed to ensure that open file descriptors were properly handled in the event of thread cancellation.

Consequence: The use of POSIX thread cancellation could cause the library to improperly handle open file descriptors, particularly those held open when processing identity information.

Fix: The library calls have been changed to correctly handle open file descriptors in the even of thread cancellation or any calls to the exec family of functions.

Result: Calls to functions like getpwuid_r now correctly complete even when the thread is being cancellation.

Fix for handling of open file descriptors in the event of thread cancellation

The use of POSIX thread cancellation could cause glibc to improperly handle open file descriptors, particularly those held open when processing identity information.

To correct this and ensure that functions like getpwuid_r complete, even when the thread is being cancelled, the library calls have been changed to correctly handle open file descriptors in any call from the exec family of functions.
