Re: [PATCH] selinux: Read sk->sk_family once in selinux_socket_bind()

From: Mickaël Salaün <mic@digikod.net>
Date: 2024-12-12 17:50:30
Also in: linux-security-module, selinux

This looks good be there are other places using sk->sk_family that
should also be fixed.

selinux_socket_bind() is called without holding the socket lock.

Use READ_ONCE() to safely read sk->sk_family for IPv6 socket in case
of lockless transformation to IPv4 socket via IPV6_ADDRFORM [1].
