appear.in call crashes immediately upon granting gUM permissions. No crash is reported in about:crashes. 

Steps to reproduce:
1) On Windows 10 64 bit built with clang-cl, navigate to https://appear.in and enter a room
2) When prompted to grant permission to use microphone (and optionally camera) accept
3) Tab Crash occurs, no crash appears in about:crashes

Expected outcome
There is no tab crash
This was determined via mozregression on mozilla-inbound which lead to the following check-in: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/01380eb6a6d0
I followed steps 1 and 2 exactly and no tab crash occurred.

Can you please run your scenario under WinDbg and capture a stack [1] and/or minidump [2]

If the minidump is needed, let me know how to get it to you.
Mozilla's Google Drive is one option.
We're failing a -GS stack integrity check, hiding the bug for now.
Group: core-security
At the time of the complaint in the minidump, the badness already happened, so this will be tricky to diagnose without sitting in front of your PC.

Any chance you could try capturing this in a Time Travel Trace? https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/windbg/2017/08/28/new-windbg-available-in-preview/

To keep the trace file to a sane size you'd probably want to start up the browser, load Appear, and only then attach the recorder to the content process.

While I'm assuming this is going to track down the root cause for the crash on appear.in do we need a separate bug for looking into why there is no crash report on about:crashes?

My concern here would be if switching to clang builds somehow results in crashes no longer getting reported.

The code considers this failure critical enough that it brings down the process as directly as possible, bypassing exception handlers. This happens for GS failures regardless of compiler. (See also http://www.alex-ionescu.com/?p=69 and bug 1235982 comment 17)

I'm not worried about clang turning off reporting of existing crashes. What is uncertain is whether clang-generated code is hitting GS failures more than MSVC. I don't think we have any way to tell.

I uploaded a time travel trace to Mozilla's Google Drive.
It's got the same filename and size as the previous minidump, are you sure it's the right file?
Jim, do you know if we get WER data on -GS crashes that deliberately bypass our crash reporter?

Thanks all. This is fixed upstream [0], bug for import is bug 1476278. This will uplift cleanly if needed. David, do you think we want this on builds that are still compiling with MSVC (beta, esr, etc.) ? The bug probably exist there as well.

It's going to be really hard for someone to control the values here, they comes from the system. It can be done if a custom audio driver has been installed, I suppose.

Attached patch fix.patchSplinter Review
[Security approval request comment]
How easily could an exploit be constructed based on the patch?

This is tripping the stack canary and exiting the process without even touching the crash reporter, so I suppose pretty hard. Also the values written 4 bytes outside the stack are from the system, and cannot be controlled, unless a custom audio driver is being used. 

Do comments in the patch, the check-in comment, or tests included in the patch paint a bulls-eye on the security problem?

I've disguised this as a style fix, part of a cubeb uplift (that we do very often).

Which older supported branches are affected by this flaw?

I'll let dmajor comment on this, but probably ESR60 and Beta.

If not all supported branches, which bug introduced the flaw?

Bug 1339816 (upstream https://github.com/kinetiknz/cubeb/pull/221)

Do you have backports for the affected branches? If not, how different, hard to create, and risky will they be?

This applies cleanly.

How likely is this patch to cause regressions; how much testing does it need?

Unlikely, we'll have confirmation that the fix works well soon.

Uplifting would be the safest option, unless there's some reason not to (e.g. it draws attention to the bug or something)
Paul, I can confirm it no longer crashes with your patch applied.
Flags: needinfo?(na-g)
Daniel, Al is on PTO and it's been a few days, would you mind giving us your judgment on the sec-approval, or finding someone else to do so? It's bringing down the process bypassing the crash-reporter when someone tries to use a microphone on Windows, we'd like to have it sorted out quickly so that the Nightly population can do WebRTC calls on Windows again.

Let me know if you need more info and thanks!
Flags: needinfo?(dveditz)
If you think the value is not controllable it's not sec-critical. I'm suspicious that since the value we're reading out depends on the audio being processed (frame count) and that's up to the page, maybe the other bit being written does too. I'll stick with sec-high out of caution but it could well be sec-moderate.

It's a frame count requested by the driver, not by the page. The page cannot decide the buffer size to use here, only the device driver does.

Approval Request Comment
[Feature/Bug causing the regression]: Bug 1339816 (upstream https://github.com/kinetiknz/cubeb/pull/221)
[User impact if declined]: None if we're compiling with MSVC, but we can choose to uplift this if we want to be on the safe side. I'm pretty sure the current code (i.e. without this patch) is wrong but safe.
[Is this code covered by automated tests?]: Yes, however the crash can only be reproduced if compiling with clang-cl 
[Has the fix been verified in Nightly?]: Yes
[Needs manual test from QE? If yes, steps to reproduce]: Run any webrtc 
[List of other uplifts needed for the feature/fix]: No
[Is the change risky?]: No
[Why is the change risky/not risky?]: It's very very simple

It is the right one for central.

But that won’t apply to beta however...
For beta, uplift.patch needs to be used.

Why are there two copies of cubeb_resampler.cpp in the tree? Does the other one need to be updated too?

Only one is compiled, the other is an artifact of having cubeb be a dependency of a rust crate.

only the one in media/ is compiled, not the one in third_party/.

Would it be predictable given known audio content and the attacker correctly guessing a popular driver?

We really don't get much of anything from them right now. The data they p[rovide is worthless due to the lack of stacks data and minidumps.
