When task->comm is passed directly to audit_log_untrustedstring() without getting a copy or using the task_lock, there is a race that could happen that would output a NULL (\0) in the middle of the output string that would effectively truncate the rest of the report text after the comm= field in the audit log message, losing fields. Using get_task_comm() to get a copy while acquiring the task_lock to prevent this and to prevent the result from being a mixture of old and new values of comm would incur potentially unacceptable overhead, considering that the value can be influenced by userspace and therefore untrusted anyways. Copy the value before passing it to audit_log_untrustedstring() ensures that a local copy is used to calculate the length *and* subsequently printed. Even if this value contains a mix of old and new values, it will only calculate and copy up to the first NULL, preventing the rest of the audit log message being truncated. Use a second local copy of comm to avoid a race between the first and second calls to audit_log_untrustedstring() with comm.
