Kernel Version: 4.18.5 Problem Description: When setting nice value, it is checked by LSM function security_task_setnice(). see kernel/sched/core.c:3972 SYSCALL_DEFINE1(nice, int, increment) We discovered a leaking path in android binder which allows using binder?s interface to change a process?s nice value. This path is leaked from being monitored by LSM. see drivers/android/binder.c:1107 binder_set_nice.
Can you please submit a patch for this to get the proper credit for finding and fixing this? thanks, greg k-h
