This is a third round of patches to fix the SCTP-SELinux interaction w.r.t. client-side peeloff. The patches are a modified version of Xin Long's patches posted previously, of which only a part was merged (the rest was merged for a while, but was later reverted): https://lore.kernel.org/selinux/cover.1635854268.git.lucien.xin@gmail.com/T/ (local) In gist, these patches replace the call to security_inet_conn_established() in SCTP with a new hook security_sctp_assoc_established() and implement the new hook in SELinux so that the client-side association labels are set correctly (which matters in case the association eventually gets peeled off into a separate socket). Note that other LSMs than SELinux don't implement the SCTP hooks nor inet_conn_established, so they shouldn't be affected by any of these changes. These patches were tested by selinux-testsuite [1] with an additional patch [2] and by lksctp-tools func_tests [3]. Changes since v2: - patches 1 and 2 dropped as they are already in mainline (not reverted) - in patch 3, the return value of security_sctp_assoc_established() is changed to int, the call is moved earlier in the function, and if the hook returns an error value, the packet will now be discarded, aborting the association - patch 4 has been changed a lot - please see the patch description for details on how the hook is now implemented and why [1] https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux-testsuite/ [2] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/selinux/patch/20211021144543.740762-1-omosnace@redhat.com/ [3] https://github.com/sctp/lksctp-tools/tree/master/src/func_tests Ondrej Mosnacek (2): security: add sctp_assoc_established hook security: implement sctp_assoc_established hook in selinux Documentation/security/SCTP.rst | 22 ++++---- include/linux/lsm_hook_defs.h | 2 + include/linux/lsm_hooks.h | 5 ++ include/linux/security.h | 8 +++ net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c | 8 +-- security/security.c | 7 +++ security/selinux/hooks.c | 90 ++++++++++++++++++++++++------- -- 7 files changed, 103 insertions(+), 39 deletions(-)
