If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 106b71d0de8ed5ac6c97cda221994d120a5125e1 Author: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jan 18 07:06:37 2024 -0800 fs: binfmt_elf_efpic: don't use missing interpreter's properties [ Upstream commit 15fd1dc3dadb4268207fa6797e753541aca09a2a ] Static FDPIC executable may get an executable stack even when it has non-executable GNU_STACK segment. This happens when STACK segment has rw permissions, but does not specify stack size. In that case FDPIC loader uses permissions of the interpreter's stack, and for static executables with no interpreter it results in choosing the arch-default permissions for the stack. Fix that by using the interpreter's properties only when the interpreter is actually used.
