RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Carlos O'Donell 2019-02-25 22:35:15 UTC
When dlopening a shared object, _dl_open_check will throw an exception
if CET shadow stack is enabled and the shared object has no shadow stack
support.  dl_open_worker must call _dl_open_check after relocation is
finished.  Otherwise, the dependency shared objects may be mmapped
without relocation.  This will lead to run-time failure later when they
are needed by another dlopened shared object which is shadow stack
enabled.

Comment 8 Florian Weimer 2019-08-30 11:18:12 UTC
Note: My understanding is that this bug is visible even on non-CET hardware because the CET markup is checked for consistency even in non-CET mode, which makes this bug visible on current x86 hardware.

    Call _dl_open_check after relocation [BZ #24259]
    
    This is a workaround for [BZ #20839] which doesn't remove the NODELETE
    object when _dl_open_check throws an exception.  Move it after relocation
    in dl_open_worker to avoid leaving the NODELETE object mapped without
    relocation.

Please also verify upstream branch backports:

release/2.30/master - May be required. Please check.
release/2.29/master - May be required. Please check.
release/2.28/master - May be required. Please check.

Comment 11 DJ Delorie 2019-11-01 19:30:28 UTC
Backported to upstream 2.29 and 2.28
