[PATCH 4.4 338/342] security: let security modules use PTRACE_MODE_* with bitmasks

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2016-03-02 00:02:48
Also in: lkml

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jann Horn <redacted>

commit 3dfb7d8cdbc7ea0c2970450e60818bb3eefbad69 upstream.

It looks like smack and yama weren't aware that the ptrace mode
can have flags ORed into it - PTRACE_MODE_NOAUDIT until now, but
only for /proc/$pid/stat, and with the PTRACE_MODE_*CREDS patch,
all modes have flags ORed into them.
