In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

rseq: Fix segfault on registration when rseq_cs is non-zero

The rseqcs field is documented as being set to 0 by user-space prior to registration, however this is not currently enforced by the kernel. This can result in a segfault on return to user-space if the value stored in the rseqcs field doesn't point to a valid struct rseq_cs.

The correct solution to this would be to fail the rseq registration when the rseqcs field is non-zero. However, some older versions of glibc will reuse the rseq area of previous threads without clearing the rseqcs field and will also terminate the process if the rseq registration fails in a secondary thread. This wasn't caught in testing because in this case the leftover rseqcs does point to a valid struct rseqcs.

What we can do is clear the rseq_cs field on registration when it's non-zero which will prevent segfaults on registration and won't break the glibc versions that reuse rseq areas on thread creation.
