Subject: [PATCH 14/27] selftests/landlock: Make audit_message large enough for any exe filter
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2026 16:25:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008142604.39107-16-gnoack3000@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008142604.39107-2-gnoack3000@gmail.com>
audit_filter_exe() copies the filtered executable path after the
audit_rule_data header in struct audit_message. The message buffer was
sized as PATH_MAX + 200 bytes with received records in mind, but
struct audit_rule_data alone takes 1040 bytes. That leaves only 3256
bytes for the path, while the kernel accepts up to PATH_MAX bytes, so a
long path overflows the message.
Size the buffer for an audit_rule_data followed by a PATH_MAX string.
This only makes the buffer larger, so received records still fit.
Also check that the request fits in the message and return -E2BIG
otherwise, in case exe_len does not match the filter's buffer.
