exec: remove argv_len from struct linux_binprm
I noticed that 2.6.24.2 calculates bprm->argv_len at do_execve(). But it doesn't update bprm->argv_len after "remove_arg_zero() + copy_strings_kernel()" at load_script() etc. audit_bprm() is called from search_binary_handler() and search_binary_handler() is called from load_script() etc. Thus, I think the condition check if (bprm->argv_len > (audit_argv_kb << 10)) return -E2BIG; in audit_bprm() might return wrong result when strlen(removed_arg) != strlen(spliced_args). Why not update bprm->argv_len at load_script() etc. ? By the way, 2.6.25-rc3 seems to not doing the condition check. Is the field bprm->argv_len no longer needed?
