Subject: Re: CVE Request: Linux mishandles int80 fork from 64-bit tasks
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
> There's another problem, though: setup_thread_stack would propagate
> TS_COMPAT (i.e. the indication that the task is in a 32-bit syscall)
> to the child, and nothing would clear that bit. This violates a
> general invariant that tasks executing in user mode never have
> TS_COMPAT set.
> As a result, both seccomp and
