Subject: [PATCH] SELinux - support mls categories for context mounts
Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2006 15:30:53 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0609281529140.28065@d.namei> (raw)
From: Cory Olmo <colmo@TrustedCS.com>
This patch allows commas to be embedded into context mount options (i.e.
"-o context=some_selinux_context_t"), to better support multiple
categories, which are separated by commas and confuse mount.
For example, with the current code:
mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom -o \
ro,context=system_u:object_r:iso9660_t:s0:c1,c3,c4,exec
The context option that will be interpreted by SELinux is
context=system_u:object_r:iso9660_t:s0:c1
instead of
context=system_u:object_r:iso9660_t:s0:c1,c3,c4
The options that will be passed on to the file system will be
ro,c3,c4,exec.
The proposed solution is to allow/require the SELinux context option
specified to mount to use quotes when the context contains a comma.
This patch modifies the option parsing in parse_opts(), contained in
mount.c, to take options after finding a comma only if it hasn't seen a
quote or if the quotes are matched. It also introduces a new function
that will strip the quotes from the context option prior to translation.
The quotes are replaced after the translation is completed to insure that
in the event the raw context contains commas the kernel will be able to
interpret the correct context.
