Title
selinux: reject an unclaimed class value in security_get_classes()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: reject an unclaimed class value in security_get_classes()
security_get_classes() sizes an array by p_classes.nprim and fills it at
value - 1, so a class value the policy never defines leaves a NULL.
sel_make_classes() passes every entry to sel_make_dir(), reaching the same
d_alloc_name() dereference as the permission array. The class symbol table
is allowed to be sparse (policydb_class_isvalid() exists to absorb that),
but this getter builds its own array straight from the hash table and has
no such predicate.
Fail the lookup when a value went unclaimed instead of handing out the
NULL. Conforming policies define every class they declare and are
unaffected.
Severity
No CVSS data available.
