+Subject: ASLR: fix stack randomization on 64-bit systems
+Origin: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1888210
+
+The issue is that the stack for processes is not properly randomized on 64 bit
+architectures due to an integer overflow.
+
+The affected function is randomize_stack_top() in file "fs/binfmt_elf.c":
+
+static unsigned long randomize_stack_top(unsigned long stack_top)
+{
+         unsigned int random_variable = 0;
+
+         if ((current->flags & PF_RANDOMIZE) &&
+                 !(current->personality & ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE)) {
+                 random_variable = get_random_int() & STACK_RND_MASK;
+                 random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
+         }
+         return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) + random_variable;
+         return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) - random_variable;
+}
+
+Note that, it declares the "random_variable" variable as "unsigned int". Since
+the result of the shifting operation between STACK_RND_MASK (which is
+0x3fffff on x86_64, 22 bits) and PAGE_SHIFT (which is 12 on x86_64):
+
+random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
+
+then the two leftmost bits are dropped when storing the result in the
+"random_variable". This variable shall be at least 34 bits long to hold the
+(22+12) result.
+
+These two dropped bits have an impact on the entropy of process stack.
+Concretely, the total stack entropy is reduced by four: from 2^28 to 2^30 (One
+fourth of expected entropy).
+
+This patch restores back the entropy by correcting the types involved in the
+operations in the functions randomize_stack_top() and stack_maxrandom_size().
+
+The successful fix can be tested with:
+$ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep stack; done
+7ffeda566000-7ffeda587000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]
+7fff5a332000-7fff5a353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]
+7ffcdb7a1000-7ffcdb7c2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]
+7ffd5e2c4000-7ffd5e2e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]
+...
+
+Once corrected, the leading bytes should be between 7ffc and 7fff, rather
+than always being 7fff.
