From ccb544781d34afdb73a9a73ae53035d824d193bf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Smalley Date: Fri, 12 May 2017 12:41:24 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] selinux: do not check open permission on sockets open permission is currently only defined for files in the kernel (COMMON_FILE_PERMS rather than COMMON_FILE_SOCK_PERMS). Construction of an artificial test case that tries to open a socket via /proc/pid/fd will generate a recvfrom avc denial because recvfrom and open happen to map to the same permission bit in socket vs file classes. open of a socket via /proc/pid/fd is not supported by the kernel regardless and will ultimately return ENXIO. But we hit the permission check first and can thus produce these odd/misleading denials. Omit the open check when operating on a socket.
