the ability of unprivileged processes to deliver arbitrary signals
to daemons temporarily taking on unprivileged effective credentials
when P_SUGID is not set on the target process:
Removed:
(p1->p_cred->cr_ruid != ps->p_cred->cr_uid)
(p1->p_ucred->cr_uid != ps->p_cred->cr_uid)
o Replace two "allow this" exceptions in p_cansignal() restricting
the ability of unprivileged processes to deliver arbitrary signals
to daemons temporarily taking on unprivileged effective credentials
when P_SUGID is set on the target process:
Replaced:
(p1->p_cred->p_ruid != p2->p_ucred->cr_uid)
(p1->p_cred->cr_uid != p2->p_ucred->cr_uid)
With:
(p1->p_cred->p_ruid != p2->p_ucred->p_svuid)
(p1->p_ucred->cr_uid != p2->p_ucred->p_svuid)
o These changes have the effect of making the uid-based handling of
both P_SUGID and non-P_SUGID signal delivery consistent, following
these four general cases:
p1's ruid equals p2's ruid
p1's euid equals p2's ruid
p1's ruid equals p2's svuid
p1's euid equals p2's svuid
The P_SUGID and non-P_SUGID cases can now be largely collapsed,
and I'll commit this in a few days if no immediate problems are
encountered with this set of changes.
o These changes remove a number of warning cases identified by the
proc_to_proc inter-process authorization regression test.
o As these are new restrictions, we'll have to watch out carefully for
possible side effects on running code: they seem reasonable to me,
but it's possible this change might have to be backed out if problems
are experienced.

a subject process to influence the scheduling of a daemon if the subject

from signal authorization checking.
o p_cansignal() takes three arguments: subject process, object process,
and signal number, unlike p_cankill(), which only took into account
the processes and not the signal number, improving the abstraction
such that CANSIGNAL() from kern_sig.c can now also be eliminated;
previously CANSIGNAL() special-cased the handling of SIGCONT based
on process session. privused is now deprecated.
o The new p_cansignal() further limits the set of signals that may
be delivered to processes with P_SUGID set, and restructures the
access control check to allow it to be extended more easily.
o These changes take into account work done by the OpenBSD Project,
as well as by Robert Watson and Thomas Moestl on the TrustedBSD
Project.
