  1 Notes for TOMOYO Linux project
  2 
  3 This is a handy Mandatory Access Control patch for Linux kernels.
  4 This patch is released under the GPLv2.
  5 
  6 Project URL: https://tomoyo.sourceforge.net/
  7 
  8 The authors of this patch (hereafter, we) don't have much experience
  9 in kernel programming. We are worried that this patch would contain
 10 some mistakes such as missing hooks, improper location of hooks,
 11 potential deadlocks. There would be better way of implementation.
 12 All kinds of comments, pointing the errors and suggestions are welcome.
 13 
 14 We do hope this patch reduces the labor of server security management
 15 and you enjoy the life with Linux.
 16 
 17 This project was very inspired by the comic "Card Captor SAKURA",
 18 one of the CLAMP's masterworks.

 20 ChangeLog:
 21 
 22 Version 1.0   2005/11/11   First release.
 23 
 24 Fix 2005/11/18
 25 
 26     @ Add setattr() missing hook in SYAORAN fs.
 27 
 28       setattr() checking for special inode was missing.
 29 
 30 Fix 2005/11/25
 31 
 32     @ Allow initrd.img include /sbin/init .
 33 
 34       Since version 1.0 loads policy when /sbin/init is called
 35       for the first time, initrd.img without the policy directory
 36       mustn't start /sbin/init . This forced users not to use
 37       initrd.img that includes /sbin/init .
 38       I modified to delay loading policy if the policy directory
 39       doesn't exist and wait for /sbin/init being called again.
 40 
 41 Fix 2005/12/02
 42 
 43     @ Use lookup_one_len() instead of lookup_hash().
 44 
 45       Kernel 2.6.15 changed parameters for lookup_hash().
 46       I modified to use lookup_one_len() to keep compatibility.
 47 
 48 Fix 2005/12/06
 49 
 50     @ Add S_ISDIR() check in SYAORAN fs.
 51 
 52       Malicious configuration file that attempts to create an inode
 53       under non-directory inode caused segmentation fault.
 54 
 55 Version 1.0.1 2005/12/08   Minor update release.
 56 
 57 Fix 2006/01/04
 58 
 59     @ Add CheckWritePermission() check in unix_bind().
 60 
 61       I modified to check write permission in unix_bind(), for
 62       sys_mknod(S_IFSOCK) checks write permission.
 63 
 64     @ Show hook version in proc_misc_init().
 65 
 66       The hook part of this patch depends on the kernel's version,
 67       while the rest part of this patch doesn't.
 68       I added the hook version so that the administrator can
 69       know the last modified date of the hooks.
 70 
 71     @ Move permission checks from filp_open() to open_namei().
 72 
 73       I moved the location of checking MAC's permission
 74       from filp_open() to open_namei().
 75 
 76     @ Fix an error in filp_open().  (only 2.6.15-rc5)
 77 
 78       This error was only in the patch 2.6.15-rc5 and
 79       was fixed in the patch for 2.6.15.
 80 
 81 Fix 2006/01/12
 82 
 83     @ Add /proc/ccs/info/self_domain.
 84 
 85       I added /proc/ccs/info/self_domain so that the userland programs
 86       can know the name of domain they belong to if necessary.
 87 
 88 Fix 2006/01/13
 89 
 90     @ Merge constants for CheckTaskCapability().
 91 
 92       I merged *_INHERITABLE_* and *_LOCAL_* to avoid always
 93       calling CheckTaskCapability() with both constants.
 94 
 95     @ DropTaskCapability() returns -EAGAIN on success.
 96 
 97       DropTaskCapability() must not return 0 on success, for
 98       DropTaskCapability() is called from do_execve().
 99 
100     @ Fix an error for chroot() permission check.
101 
102       The chroot() restriction was not working due to the following mistake.
103       CheckChRootPermission() || CheckTaskCapability() returns 0 or 1, while
104       CheckChRootPermission() | CheckTaskCapability() returns 0 or -EPERM.
105 
106 Fix 2006/01/17
107 
108     @ Suppress some of debug messages in TOMOYO.
109 
110       I added KERN_DEBUG to suppress some of debug messages.
111 
112 Fix 2006/01/19
113 
114     @ Remove isRoot() checks in AddChrootACL() and AddMountACL().
115 
116       I found a program that needs to chroot by non-root.
117       So, I stopped checking uid=euid=0 for these functions so that
118       "accept mode" can append ACLs.
119       The isRoot() is checked at AddChrootPolicy() and AddMountPolicy().
120 
121     @ Map NULL device name to "<NULL>" in AddMountACL().
122 
123       VMware mounts vmware-hgfs with NULL device name.
124       So I mapped NULL device name to "<NULL>".
125 
126 Fix 2006/01/20
127 
128     @ Suppress some of debug messages in SAKURA.
129 
130       I added KERN_DEBUG to suppress some of debug messages.
131 
132     @ Call panic() if failed to load given profile.
133 
134       Call panic() if profile index was given via CCS= parameter
135       but the profile doesn't exist.
136       If CCS= parameter is not given, the kernel attempts to load
137       profile 0, but it doesn't call panic() if profile 0 doesn't exist.
138 
139 Fix 2006/01/24
140 
141     @ Use full_name_hash() for IsGloballyReadableFile().
142 
143       I modified to use full_name_hash() for faster scan.
144 
145     @ Add signal checking condition in CheckSignalACL().
146 
147       The documentation says "if the target domain's domainname
148       starts with the source domain's domainname, it is always granted"
149       but actually it isn't. I'll change the documentation instead of
150       changing the source code.
151 
152       Also, checking for pid = -1 was missing. This error was fixed.
153 
154 Fix 2006/02/09
155 
156     @ Use mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock instead of down()/up().
157 
158       Kernel 2.6.16 changed members of "struct inode".
159       I modified to use mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock() for after 2.6.16
160       and down()/up() for before 2.6.16.
161 
162 Version 1.0.2 2006/02/14   Many bug-fixes release.
163 
164 Fix 2006/02/21
165 
166     @ Divide generic-write permission into individual write permissions.
167 
168       Write permission was divided into the following permissions.
169 
170       'mkdir'     for creating directory.
171       'rmdir'     for deleting directory.
172       'create'    for creating regular file.
173       'unlink'    for deleting non-directory.
174       'mksock'    for creating UNIX domain socket.
175       'mkfifo'    for creating FIFO.
176       'mkchar'    for creating character device.
177       'mkblock'   for creating block device.
178       'link'      for creating hard link.
179       'symlink'   for creating symbolic link.
180       'rename'    for renaming directory or non-directory.
181       'truncate'  for truncating regular file.
182 
183       The permission check for opening files is done using
184       conventional read/write/execute permission.
185 
186     @ Add /proc/ccs/info/mapping.
187 
188       I added /proc/ccs/info/mapping so that the userland programs
189       can know the mapping of individual write permissions.
190 
191 Fix 2006/02/27
192 
193     @ Fix handling of trailing '\*' in PathMatchesToPattern().
194 
195       PathMatchesToPattern("/tmp/", "/tmp/\*") returned true
196       because "\*" matches "zero or more repetitions of characters
197       until '/' or end". But since this is a comparison between
198       directory and non-directory, this should not match.
199 
200       This behavior causes the following security risks.
201       In enforce mode, allowing "2 /tmp/\*" grants
202       "mkdir /tmp/" and "rmdir /tmp/" which should be
203       granted only when "2 /tmp/" is allowed.
204       In accept mode, "mkdir /tmp/" or "rmdir /tmp/" appends
205       "2 /tmp/\*" into the domain policy if "file_pattern /tmp/\*"
206       is in the exception policy.
207 
208       I changed not to ignore trailing '\*' in the pattern
209       if pathname ends with '/'.
210 
211 Fix 2006/03/01
212 
213     @ Add missing spinlock in GetAbsolutePath().
214 
215       vfsmount_lock was missing.
216 
217 Fix 2006/03/08
218 
219     @ Add support for "shared subtree" mount operations.
220 
221       Kernel 2.6.15 introduced "shared subtree" functionality.
222       But CheckMountPermission() couldn't recognize flags for
223       do_change_type().
224 
225     @ Add support for more mount flags.
226 
227       atime/noatime, diratime/nodiratime, recurse/norecurse flags
228       are supported.
229 
230 Fix 2006/03/20
231 
232     @ Check port numbers for only AF_INET/AF_INET6.
233 
234       CheckBindEntry() and CheckConnectEntry() should check port numbers
235       only when the given address family is either AF_INET or AF_INET6,
236       for address family such as AF_UNSPEC could be passed to bind()
237       and connect() for PF_INET/PF_INET6 sockets.
238 
239 Fix 2006/03/27
240 
241     @ Use /proc/self/ rather than /proc/\$/ for current process.
242 
243       GetAbsolutePath() now uses "self" instead of pid
244       if current process refers to information related to itself.
245       This exception violates the rule "TOMOYO Linux's pathnames don't
246       contain symbolic links before the last '/'", but I think it worth
247       to do so. The following are the merits gained by this exception.
248 
249       Prevent administrators from granting redundant permissions
250       when a process needs to refer to only current process's information.
251 
252       Allow administrators make current process's information always
253       readable using 'allow_read' directive.
254 
255 Version 1.1   2006/04/01   Functionality enhancement release.
256 
257 Fix 2006/04/03
258 
259     @ Use queue instead of fixed sized array for audit log.
260 
261       WriteAuditLog() now uses queue to save statically allocated memory.
262       Administrators can give any size for audit logs at runtime.
263 
264     @ Use kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() + memset().
265 
266       kmalloc() + memset() were replaced with kzalloc().
267 
268 Fix 2006/04/04
269 
270     @ Support "delayed enforcing" mode.
271 
272       Until now, access request was immediately rejected
273       if policy doesn't allow that access and the system is
274       running in enforce mode.
275       Sometimes, especially after updating softwares,
276       some unexpected access requests arise from proper procedure.
277       Such access requests should be granted because
278       they are not caused by malicious attacks.
279       So I introduced a mechanism to allow administrator some grace
280       to decide to grant or reject such access requests.
281       This mechanism is implemented in the following manner.
282         "Don't return immediately if permission denied."
283         "Sleep for a while waiting administrator's decision."
284         "Return successfully if administrator tells to do so."
285 
286 Fix 2006/04/12
287 
288     @ Fix handling of prefix in GetAbsolutePath().
289 
290       Some objects doesn't have prefix "/".
291       Pipe has prefix "pipe:" and socket has prefix "socket:".
292       GetAbsolutePath() couldn't handle prefixes other than '/' properly.
293 
294     @ Remove IsCorrectPath() checks for File Access Control functions.
295 
296       File Access Control functions accepted only pathnames that start
297       with '/' because these functions assumed pathnames returned by
298       GetAbsolutePath() always start with '/'.
299       However, I found a program that opens an unnamed pipe via
300       (probably) /proc/PID/fd/ directory. (You can see entries like
301       "pipe:[number]" if you run "ls -l /proc/*/fd/".)
302       Now, File Access Control functions have to accept pathnames
303       that don't start with '/'. So, I stopped checking IsCorrectPath().
304 
305 Fix 2006/04/19
306 
307     @ Fix handling of NULL nameidata in vfs_open().
308 
309       In 2.6 kernels, NFS daemon and sys_mq_open() call
310       vfs_create() with NULL nameidata. In such cases,
311       CheckSingleWritePermission() must not be called.
312 
313 Version 1.1.1 2006/05/15   Functionality enhancement release.
314 
315 Fix 2006/05/16
316 
317     @ Support program files aggregation.
318 
319       Until now, programs that have no fixed names and their
320       parent programs had to be run in a trusted domain
321       since it is impossible to use patterns for granting
322       execute permission and defining domains.
323       I introduced a mechanism to aggregate similar programs
324       using 'aggregator' directive.
325       Some examples:
326 
327         'aggregator /tmp/logrotate.\?\?\?\?\?\? /tmp/logrotate.tmp'
328         to run all temporary programs for logrotate as /tmp/logrotate.tmp
329 
330         'aggregator /usr/bin/tac /bin/cat'
331         to run /usr/bin/tac and /bin/cat as /bin/cat
332 
333 Fix 2006/05/18
334 
335     @ Unlimit max count for audit log.
336 
337       I forgot to replace MAX_GRANT_LOG and MAX_REJECT_LOG with INT_MAX
338       so that administrators can give any size for audit logs at runtime.
339 
340 Fix 2006/05/22
341 
342     @ Support individual domain ACL removal.
343 
344       Until now, to remove ACLs from a domain, administrator had to
345       once delete and recreate that domain, which wastes a lot of memory.
346       I introduced a mechanism to remove domain ACL without deleting and
347       recreating domains.
348       Administrator can delete domains or remove ACLs from domains
349       via /proc/ccs/policy/domain_policy .
350       /proc/ccs/policy/delete_domain and /proc/ccs/policy/update_domain
351       were removed.
352 
353 Fix 2006/05/30
354 
355     @ Add missing spinlock in SAKURA_MayMount().
356 
357       vfsmount_lock was missing.
358 
359 Version 1.1.2 2006/06/02   Functionality enhancement release.
360 
361 Fix 2006/06/13
362 
363     @ Merge tomoyo_connect.c and tomoyo_bind.c into tomoyo_port.c
364 
365       I merged these files that have only difference CONNECT and BIND,
366       that are likely to be enabled both or neither.
367 
368     @ Add CONFIG_TOMOYO_AUDIT option.
369 
370       I made auditing functions as optional because some Linux boxes
371       may have not enough disk space to store audit logs.
372 
373 Fix 2006/06/15
374 
375     @ Support use of symbolic links for program execution.
376 
377       Until now, domains for programs executed by dereferencing
378       symbolic links were defined using dereferenced pathnames.
379       This was inconvenient for some Linux boxes who use busybox but
380       can't keep hard links of busybox.
381       I introduced a mechanism to allow using pathnames of
382       symbolic links using 'alias' directive.
383       Some examples:
384 
385         'alias /sbin/busybox /bin/ls' to run /bin/ls
386         (which is a symbolic link to /sbin/busybox) as /bin/ls
387         if /bin/ls is executed.
388 
389         'alias /bin/bash /bin/sh' to run /bin/sh
390         (which is a symbolic link to /bin/bash) as /bin/sh
391         if /bin/sh is executed.
392 
393 Fix 2006/06/21
394 
395     @ Use ccs_alloc() instead of kzalloc().
396 
397       To detect memory leaks,
398       I added a wrapper for tracing kmalloc() and kfree().
399       There is no way to detect memory leaks caused by ccs-*.txt .

401 Version 1.1.3 2006/07/13   Functionality enhancement release.
402 
403 Fix 2006/07/14
404 
405     @ Change behavior of pathname pattern matching.
406 
407       Until now, it was impossible to use patterns like "\*.txt" because
408       "\*" matched zero or more repetitions of characters until next '/'.
409       Now, "\*" matches zero or more repetitions of characters.
410 
411       Until now, it was impossible to use patterns like "\$00"
412       because "\$" matched one or more repetitions of digits until next
413       non digit character.
414       Now, "\$" matches one or more repetitions of digits.
415 
416       Also, new patterns "\x" "\X" "\a" "\A" "\@" are added.
417 
418 Fix 2006/07/21
419 
420     @ Add CONFIG_TOMOYO_NETWORK option.
421 
422       Until now, only port numbers for TCP and UDP were controllable.
423       Now, the combination of IPv4/IPv6 address and port numbers
424       for TCP and UDP is controllable.
425       CONFIG_TOMOYO_NETWORKPORT became obsolete.

429     @ Change matching rule for CheckFileACL().
430 
431       Until now, only first entry that matched the requested pathname
432       was used for permission checking. For example, two entries
433 
434       "2 /tmp/file-\$.txt"
435       "4 /tmp/fil\?-0.txt"
436 
437       are given in this order and requested pathname is "/tmp/file-0.txt",
438       the "2 /tmp/file-\$.txt" is used. But if two entries
439 
440       "4 /tmp/fil\?-0.txt"
441       "2 /tmp/file-\$.txt"
442 
443       are given in this order, the "4 /tmp/fil\?-0.txt" is used.
444       This may potentially cause trouble because the result of
445       permission checks depends on the order of entries.
446 
447       Now, all entries that matched the requested pathname
448       are used for permission checking so that the result of
449       permission checks doesn't depend on the order of entries.

453     @ Support RAW IPv4/IPv6 control.
454 
455       Some programs such as 'ping' and 'traceroute' use raw IP socket.
456       Now, the combination of IPv4/IPv6 address and protocol numbers
457       for IP is controllable.

460 
461     @ Add filename and argv[0] comparison check.
462 
463       The domain transition was done based on filename passed to do_execve(),
464       while the behavior was defined based on argv[0].
465       There is no problem if the filename is argv[0]-unaware application.
466       But if argv[0]-aware, access control bypassing happens if the process
467       transits to trusted domain but behaves as different program.
468       For example, when the administrator specifies domain for /bin/ls as
469       trusted but both /bin/ls and /bin/cat are links to /sbin/busybox ,
470       a cracker can run /bin/cat in a trusted domain if the cracker
471       succeeds to invoke do_execve() with filename = "/bin/ls" and
472       argv[0] = "/bin/cat".
473 
474       I introduced a directive that permits the mismatch of
475       basename of filename and argv[0].

477 Fix 2006/08/10
478 
479     @ Support ID based condition checks.
480 
481       It was impossible to use process id (uid and gid and so on) for
482       checking individual domain ACL.
483 
484       Now it became possible to use process id for checking individual
485       domain ACL. For example,
486 
487         "1 /bin/sh if task.euid!=0"
488 
489       allows the domain to execute /bin/sh only when the process's euid
490       is not 0, and
491 
492         "6 /home/\*/\* if task.uid=path1.uid"
493 
494       allows the domain to read-write user's home directory
495       only when the file's owner matches the process's uid.

502       I changed to use the larger size of 'void *' and 'long'
503       instead of 'int'.
504       For environment where sizeof(int) = sizeof(long) = sizeof(void *),
505       this change has no effect.

556       Until now, policies are loaded when /sbin/init starts and
557       initial control levels are switched using CCS= parameter.
558       But since some boxes have to fixate kernel command line options
559       at compilation time, I think it will become more flexible
560       by running external policy loader using init= parameter so that
561       initial control levels can be specified before /sbin/init starts.
562 
563       Call panic() if initial control levels are not specified.

577       since makesyaoranconf can't pick up entries that are

587       the domain of open time rather than first read time.
588       This modification makes shell's redirection usage
589       more convenient since redirection opens file
590       but doesn't read at the time.
591 
592       'cat < /proc/ccs/info/self_domain' will return
593       the domain of shell, and
594       'cat /proc/ccs/info/self_domain' will return
595       the domain of cat .

597 Fix 2006/11/06
598 
599     @ Replace MAX_ENFORCE_GRACE with ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE.
600 
601       Since it was inconvenient that requests that are waiting for
602       supervisor's decision are rejected automatically when
603       MAX_ENFORCE_GRACE seconds has elapsed, I modified WriteAnswer()
604       reset timeout counter whenever a supervisor's decision is written
605       and I modified ccs-queryd write a dummy decision every seconds
606       so that the requests won't be rejected automatically as long as
607       ccs-queryd is running.
608       This change made MAX_ENFORCE_GRACE's meaning boolean.
609       So I fixated MAX_ENFORCE_GRACE to 10 seconds and removed
610       MAX_ENFORCE_GRACE parameter.
611       To allow administrators selectively enable "delayed enforcing"
612       mode, I added ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE parameter.
613       The behavior of "delayed enforcing" mode is defined
614       in the following order.
615 
616       (1) The requests are rejected immediately if ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE=0.
617       (2) The requests are rejected immediately
618           if nobody is opening /proc/ccs/policy/query interface.
619       (3) The requests won't be rejected automatically
620           if ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE=1 and ccs-queryd is running.
621       (4) The requests will be rejected in 10 seconds
622           if somebody other than ccs-queryd (such as less(1)) is
623           opening /proc/ccs/policy/query interface, for
624           such process doesn't write dummy decisions.

628 Fix 2006/11/13
629 
630     @ Replace trust_domain with keep_domain.
631 
632       Since it was troublesome that there are two elements that can disable MAC
633       (assigning a profile that doesn't enable MAC or registering domains
634       with trust_domain directive), I removed trust_domain directive.
635       Instead, I introduced keep_domain directive to not to transit domains
636       unless a program registered with initializer directive is executed.
637       This change has the following advantages.
638 
639       (1) Allows administrator use "enforce mode" for operations after login.
640           Since it was difficult to know what commands and files are invoked
641           and accessed in what sequences beforehand, we had to use trust_domain
642           directive for such domain, allowing users invoke any commands and
643           access any files in any sequence.
644           But now, we can use keep_domain directive and assign a profile for
645           "enforce mode" for such domain, forcing users invoke only allowed
646           commands and access only allowed files in any sequence
647           while these operations are kept under the control of "enforce mode".
648 
649       (2) Allows administrator determine easily whether the domain is
650           under MAC or not because only the profile currently assigned to
651           the domain determines it.
652 
653       (3) Saves total number of domains and memory.

657     @ Don't allow use of undefined profile.
658 
659       To avoid assigning undefined profile to domains by error,

661       Now, profiles have to be defined prior to assigning them to domains.

666 
667     @ Allow pathname grouping.
668 
669       To reduce the labor of repeating '/\*' to allow access recursively,
670       I introduced a macro 'path_group' to make group such pathnames.
671       For example, you had to give like
672 
673         4 /var/www/html/\*
674         4 /var/www/html/\*/\*
675         4 /var/www/html/\*/\*/\*
676         4 /var/www/html/\*/\*/\*/\*
677 
678       but now, you can give just
679 
680         4 @WEB-CONTENTS
681 
682       if you give
683 
684         path_group WEB-CONTENTS /var/www/html/\*
685         path_group WEB-CONTENTS /var/www/html/\*/\*
686         path_group WEB-CONTENTS /var/www/html/\*/\*/\*
687         path_group WEB-CONTENTS /var/www/html/\*/\*/\*/\*
688 
689       in the exception policy.
690       This macro will be useful when grouping different directories.

703 
704       It was difficult to restrict programs that can update policies
705       via /proc/ccs/ interfaces using pathnames of these programs, for
706       these programs could be unintendedly invoked.
707       Now, it became possible to restrict domains that can update policies
708       via /proc/ccs/ interfaces as well as programs.
709       By restricting using domainnames, it becomes easier to avoid
710       unintended invocation.

714     @ Add initialize_domain,no_initizlize_domain,no_keep_domain

716       To control domain transitions more strictly,
717       initialize_domain,no_initizlize_domain,no_keep_domain directives
718       were introduced.
719 
720       "initialize_domain /some/program" means
721       jump to "<kernel> /some/program" domain if /some/program is
722       called from any domain.
723       This is equivalent to conventional "initializer /some/program".
724 
725       "initialize_domain /some/program from some_domain" means
726       jump to "<kernel> /some/program" domain only if /some/program is
727       called from "some_domain" domain.
728 
729       "no_initialize_domain /some/program" means
730       don't jump to "<kernel> /some/program" domain even if
731       "initialize_domain /some/program" or
732       "initialize_domain /some/program from some_domain" are given
733       if /some/program is called from any domain.
734 
735       "no_initialize_domain /some/program from some_domain" means
736       don't jump to "<kernel> /some/program" domain even if
737       "initialize_domain /some/program" or
738       "initialize_domain /some/program from some_domain" are given
739       if /some/program is called from "some_domain" domain.
740 
741       "keep_domain some_domain" means don't jump to child domain
742       if any programs are called from "some_domain" domain.
743 
744       "keep_domain /some/program from some_domain" means
745       don't jump to child domain only if /some/program is
746       called from "some_domain" domain.
747 
748       "no_keep_domain some_domain" means
749       jump to child domain even if
750       "keep_domain /some/program" or
751       "keep_domain /some/program from some_domain" are given
752       if any programs are called from "some_domain" domain.
753 
754       "no_keep_domain /some/program from some_domain" means
755       jump to child domain even if
756       "keep_domain /some/program" or
757       "keep_domain /some/program from some_domain" are given
758       if /some/program is called from "some_domain" domain.
759 
760       "some_domain" can be just the last component of domainname.
761       For example, giving "/bin/mail" as "some_domain" matches
762       all domains whose domainname ends with "/bin/mail".

770       if the deleted entries are given again.
771       But to allow administrators switch domain policy periodically,
772       I introduced "is_deleted" flag.
773 
774       Writing "some_domain" to /proc/ccs/policy/domain_policy
775       creates "some_domain" using new memory if it didn't exist.
776 
777       Writing "select some_domain" doesn't create "some_domain"
778       if it didn't exist.
779 
780       Writing "delete some_domain" deletes "some_domain"
781       but does not delete entries in "some_domain".
782 
783       Writing "undelete some_domain" undeletes "some_domain"

865 Fix 2007/04/18
866 
867     @ Change argv[0] checking rule.
868 
869       I was comparing the basename of symbolic link's pathname and argv[0].
870       Since execute permission check and domain transition are done
871       based on realpath while argv[0] check is done based on the symlink's
872       pathname and argv[0], this specification will allow attackers behave
873       as /bin/cat in the domain of /bin/ls if "/bin/ls and /bin/cat are
874       links to /sbin/busybox" and "the attacker is permitted to create
875       a symlink named ~/cat that points to /bin/ls" and "the attacker is
876       permitted to run /bin/ls".
877       So, I changed to compare the basename of realpath and argv[0].
878       Also, I moved the location to compare before processing
879       "aggregator" directive so that
880       "aggregator /tmp/logrotate.\?\?\?\?\?\? /tmp/logrotate.tmp"
881       won't cause the mismatch of the basename of realpath and argv[0].
882 
883       If /bin/ls is a symlink to /sbin/busybox, then
884       creating a symlink named ~/cat that points to /bin/ls and
885       executing ~/cat won't work as expected because permission check and
886       domain transition are done using /sbin/busybox (realpath of /bin/ls)
887       and will be rejected since the administrator won't grant
888       "1 /sbin/busybox".

890 Fix 2007/05/07
891 
892     @ Support pathname subtraction.
893 
894       There was no way to exclude specific pathnames when granting
895       permissions using wildcards.
896       There would be a need to exclude specific files and directories.
897       I introduced "\-" as subtraction operator.
898 
899         "A\-B" means "A" other than "B".
900         "A\-B\-C" means "A" other than "B" and "C".
901         "A\-B\-C\-D" means "A" other than "B" and "C" and "D".
902 
903       "A", "B", "C", "D" may contain wildcards.
904 
905       An example usage is "/home/\*/\*\-.ssh/\*", which means
906       "/home/\*/\*/\*" other than "/home/\*/.ssh/\*".
907 
908       "A" should contain wildcards because subtraction from constants
909       (e.g. "/usr\-usr/" or "/usr\-home/") is meaningless.
910 
911       Don't try "A\-B\+C" because "\+" is not addition operator.

945 
946     @ Remove mount-flags manipulation.
947 
948       Until now, administrator is permitted to turn on/off specific mount
949       options regardless of mount options passed to kernel.
950       I removed this feature because "exact option matching" sounds better than
951       "automatic option enabler/disabler".
952 
953     @ Remove /proc/ccs/info/mapping .
954 
955       I removed /proc/ccs/info/mapping because nobody seems to use this
956       feature.
957 
958     @ Call external policy loader automatically.
959 
960       Until now, users had to add init=/.init parameter to load policy
961       before /sbin/init starts.
962       I inserted call_usermodehelper() to call external policy loader when
963       execve("/sbin/init") is requested and external policy loader exists.
964 
965       This change will remove init=/.init parameter from most environment,
966       although call_usermodehelper() can't handle interactive operations.
967 
968     @ Move external policy loader from /.init to /sbin/ccs-init .

972 Fix 2007/08/13
973 
974     @ Update external policy loader.
975 
976       It turned out that /sbin/ccs-init invoked via call_usermodehelper()
977       can handle interactive operations by opening /dev/console .
978       Now, there is no difference between init=/sbin/ccs-init and
979       call_usermodehelper("/sbin/ccs-init"), and users no longer need to
980       add init=/sbin/ccs-init parameter to load policy before /sbin/init
981       starts.

983 Fix 2007/08/14
984 
985     @ Update recvmsg() hooks.
986 
987       Until now, it was impossible to apply network access control for
988       incoming UDP and RAW packets if they are brought to userland using
989       read() or recvmsg() with NULL address because address buffer is NULL.
990       I moved hooks from sock_recvmsg() to skb_recv_datagram() so that
991       network access control for incoming UDP and RAW packets always work.

998       But SELinux determines whether selinuxfs is supported by kernel
999       based on whether error code is -ENODEV or not.
1000       So I stopped returning -EPERM unconditionally.

1032 
1033     @ Avoid eating memory after quota exceeded.
1034 
1035       Although ACL entries in a domain won't be added if the domain's quota
1036       has exceeded, SaveName() in AddFileACL() is called anyway.
1037       This caused unneeded memory consumption.
1038 
1039       Now, quota checking is done before getting domain_acl_lock lock.
1040       This may exceed quota by one or two entries, but that won't matter.

1042 Fix 2007/10/16
1043 
1044     @ Add environment variable check.
1045 
1046       There are environment variables that may cause dangerous behavior
1047       like LD_\* .
1048       So I introduced 'allow_env' directive that allows specified
1049       environment variable inherited to next domain.
1050       Unlike other permissions, this check is done at execve() time
1051       using next domain's ACL information.
1052 
1053       To manage commonly inherited environments like PATH ,
1054       you can use 'allow_env' directive in exception policy
1055       to globally grant specified environment variable.

1111 
1112       Directives for file's read/write/execute permissions were
1113       4/2/1 respectively. But for easier understanding, they are now
1114       replaced by read/write/execute (e.g. "allow_read" instead of "4").
1115       But for easier inputting, 4/2/1 are still accepted instead of
1116       allow_read/allow_write/allow_execute respectively.

1122 
1123       Each entry had a field for conditional permission support.
1124       But since this field is unlikely used, I separated the field from

1150 
1151 Fix 2008/02/14
1152 
1153     @ Add execve() parameter checking.
1154 
1155       Until now, it was impossible to check argv[] and envp[] parameters
1156       passed to execve().
1157       I expanded conditional permission syntax so that
1158       { argc, envc, argv[] , envp[] } parameters can be checked if needed.
1159       This will allow administrator permit execution of /bin/sh only when
1160       /bin/sh is invoked in the form of "/bin/sh -c" and environment variable
1161       HOME is set by specifying
1162 
1163         allow_execute /bin/sh if exec.argv[1]="-c" exec.envp["HOME"]!=NULL
1164 
1165       in the policy.
1166       This extension will make exploit codes difficult to start /bin/sh because
1167       they unlikely set up environment variables and unlikely specify "-c"
1168       option when invoking /bin/sh , whereas proper functions likely set up
1169       environment variables and likely specify "-c" option.

1171 Fix 2008/02/18
1172 
1173     @ Add process state checking.
1174 
1175       Until now, it was impossible to change ACL without executing program.
1176       I added three variables for performing stateful checking within a domain.
1177       You can set current process's state like:
1178 
1179         allow_network TCP accept @TRUSTED_HOSTS 1024-65535 ; set task.state[0]=1
1180         allow_network TCP accept @UNTRUSTED_HOSTS 1024-65535 ; set task.state[0]=0
1181 
1182       and you can use the state like
1183 
1184         allow_read /path/to/important/file if task.state[0]=1
1185 
1186       in the policy.
1187       The state changes when the request was granted by the MAC's policy,
1188       so please be careful with situations where the state has changed
1189       successfully but the request was not processed because of other reasons
1190       (e.g. out of memory).

1197       But to permit /proc/ccs/ access by non-root user so that it won't require
1198       ssh login by root user when administrating from remote host,
1199       I made "(current->uid == 0 && current->euid == 0)" requirement optional.
1200       If this requirement is disabled, only "conventional DAC permission
1201       checks" and "/proc/ccs/manager checks" are used.
1202 
1203 Fix 2008/02/29
1204 
1205     @ Add sleep_on_violation feature.
1206 
1207       Some exploit codes (e.g. trans2open for Samba) continue running
1208       until it achieves the purpose of the exploit code (e.g. invoke /bin/sh).
1209 
1210       If such code is injected due to buffer overflow but the kernel
1211       rejects the request, it triggers infinite "Permission denied" loop.
1212       As a result, the CPU usage becomes 100% and gives bad effects to
1213       the rest of processes.
1214       This is a side effect of rejecting the request from the exploit code
1215       which wouldn't happen if the request from the exploit code was granted.
1216 
1217       To avoid such CPU consumption, I added a penalty that forcibly
1218       sleeps for specified period when a request is rejected.
1219 
1220       This penalty doesn't work if the exploit code does nothing but
1221       continue running, but I think most exploit code's purpose is
1222       to start some program rather than to slow down the target system.
1223 
1224     @ Add alt_exec feature.
1225 
1226       Since TOMOYO Linux's approach is "know all essential requests in advance
1227       and create policy that permits only them", you can regard anomalous
1228       requests as attacks (if you want to do so).
1229 
1230       Common MAC implementations merely reject requests that violate policy.
1231       But I added a special handler for execve() to TOMOYO Linux.
1232 
1233       This handler is triggered when a process requested to execute a program
1234       but the request was rejected by the policy.
1235       This handler executes a program specified by the administrator
1236       instead of a program requested by the process.
1237 
1238       Most attackers attempt to execute /bin/sh to start something malicious.
1239       Attackers execute an exploit code using buffer overflow vulnerability
1240       to steal control of a process. But this handler can get back control
1241       if an exploit code requests execve() that is not permitted by policy.
1242 
1243       By default, this handler does nothing (i.e. merely reject execve()
1244       request). You can specify any program to start what you want to do.
1245 
1246       You can redirect attackers to somewhere else (e.g. honey pot).
1247       This makes it possible to act your Linux box as an on-demand honey pot
1248       while keeping regular services for your usage.
1249 
1250       You can collect information of the attacker (e.g. IP address) and
1251       update firewall configuration.
1252 
1253       You can silently terminate a process who requested execve()
1254       that is not permitted by policy.

1256 Fix 2008/03/03
1257 
1258     @ Add "force_alt_exec" directive.
1259 
1260       To be able to fully utilize "alt_exec" feature,
1261       I added "force_alt_exec" directive so that
1262       all execute requests are replaced by the execute request of a program
1263       specified by alt_exec feature.
1264 
1265       If this directive is specified for a domain, the domain no longer
1266       executes any programs regardless of the mode of file access control
1267       (i.e. the domain won't execute even if MAC_FOR_FILE=0 ).
1268       Instead, the domain executes the program specified by alt_exec feature
1269       and the program specified by alt_exec feature validates the execute
1270       request and executes it if it is appropriate to execute.
1271 
1272       If you can tolerate that there is no chance to return an error code
1273       to the caller to tell the execute request was rejected,
1274       this is more flexible approach than in-kernel execve() parameter
1275       checking because we can do argv[] and envp[] checking easily.

1300     @ Rename "force_alt_exec" directive to "execute_handler".
1301 
1302       To be able to use different programs for validating execve() parameters,
1303       I moved the location to specify the program's pathname from profile
1304       to domain policy.
1305 
1306       The "execute_handler" directive takes one pathname which is
1307       invoked whenever execve() request is issued. Thus, any "allow_execute"
1308       directives in a domain with "execute_handler" are ignored.
1309       This directive is designed for validating expected/desirable execve()
1310       requests in userspace, although there is no way to tell the caller
1311       that the execve() request was rejected.
1312 
1313     @ Rename "alt_exec" directive to "denied_execute_handler".
1314 
1315       The "denied_execute_handler" directive takes one pathname which is
1316       invoked only when execve() request was rejected. In other words,
1317       this program is invoked only when the following conditions are met.
1318 
1319         (1) None of "allow_execute" directives in the domain matched.
1320         (2) The execve() request was rejected in enforcing mode.
1321         (3) "execute_handler" directive is not used by the domain.
1322 
1323       This directive is designed for handling unexpected/undesirable execve()
1324       requests, to redirect the process issuing such requests to somewhere.

1329 
1330       lock_kernel()/unlock_kernel() in pre_vfs_rename() were redundant for
1331       2.6 kernels.
1332 
1333       Locking order in pre_vfs_link() and pre_vfs_unlink() for 2.4 kernels
1334       after 2.4.33 were different from before 2.4.32 .

1336 Fix 2008/03/28
1337 
1338     @ Disable execute handler loop.
1339 
1340       To be able to use "execute_handler" in a "keep_domain" domain,
1341       ignore "execute_handler" and "denied_execute_handler" directives
1342       if the current process is executing programs specified by
1343       "execute_handler" or "denied_execute_handler" directive.
1344 
1345       This exception is needed to avoid infinite execute handler loop.
1346       If a domain has both "keep_domain" and "execute_handler",
1347       any execute request by that domain is handled by an execute handler,
1348       and the execute handler attempts to process original execute request.
1349       But the original execute request is handled by the same execute handler
1350       unless the execute handler ignores "execute_handler".
1351 
1352     @ Update coding style.
1353 
1354       I rewrote the code to pass scripts/checkpatch.pl as much as possible.

1396 Fix 2008/05/06
1397 
1398     @ Add memory quota.
1399 
1400       1.5.x returns -ENOMEM when FindNextDomain() failed to create a new
1401       domain, but I forgot to return -ENOMEM when find_next_domain() failed to
1402       create a new domain.
1403 
1404       A domain is automatically created by find_next_domain() only if
1405       the domain for the requested program doesn't exist.
1406       This behavior is for the administrator's convenience.
1407       The administrator needn't to know how many domains are needed for running
1408       the whole programs in the system beforehand when developing the policy.
1409       But the administrator does not want the kernel to reject execution of the
1410       requested program when developing the policy.
1411 
1412       So, I think it is better to grant execution of programs even if
1413       find_next_domain() failed to create a new domain than reject execution.
1414       Thus, I decided not to return -ENOMEM when find_next_domain() failed to
1415       create a new domain. This exception breaks the domain transition rules,
1416       so I print "transition_failed" warning in /proc/ccs/domain_policy
1417       when this exception happened.
1418 
1419       Also, to prevent the system from being halted by unexpectedly allocating
1420       all kernel memory for the policy, I added memory quota.
1421       This quota is configurable via /proc/ccs/meminfo like
1422 
1423         echo Shared:  1048576 > /proc/ccs/meminfo

1434 
1435     @ Wait for completion of /sbin/ccs-init .
1436 
1437       Since 2.4 kernel's call_usermodehelper() can't wait for termination of
1438       the executed program, I was using the close() request of
1439       /proc/ccs/meminfo to indicate that loading policy has finished.
1440       But since /proc/ccs/meminfo could be accessed for setting memory quota
1441       by /etc/ccs/ccs-post-init , I stopped using the close() request.
1442       The policy loader no longer need to access /proc/ccs/meminfo to notify
1443       the kernel that loading policy has finished.

1469 
1470     @ Remove ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE parameter.
1471 
1472       Since unexpected requests caused by doing software updates can happen
1473       in all profiles, users likely have to write ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE=enabled
1474       to all profiles. And it makes meaningless to allow users to selectively
1475       enable specific profile's ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE parameter.
1476       So, I removed ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE parameter.
1477       Now, the system behaves as if ALLOW_ENFORCE_GRACE=enabled is specified.
1478       The behavior of "delayed enforcing" mode is defined in the following
1479       order.
1480 
1481       (1) The requests are rejected immediately if nobody is opening
1482           /proc/ccs/query interface.
1483       (2) The requests will be rejected in 10 seconds if somebody other than
1484           ccs-queryd (such as less(1)) is opening /proc/ccs/query interface,
1485           for such process doesn't write dummy decisions.

1557     @ Add "try again" response to "delayed enforcing" mode.
1558 
1559       To be able to handle pathname changes caused by software updates,
1560       "delayed enforcing" mode was introduced. It allows administrator to
1561       grant access requests which are about to be rejected by the kernel.
1562 
1563       To be able to handle pathname changes caused by software updates better,
1564       I introduced "try again" response. As "delayed enforcing" mode sleeps
1565       a process which violated policy, administrator can update policy while
1566       the process is sleeping. This "try again" response allows administrator
1567       to restart policy checks from the beginning after updating policy.
1568 
1569 Fix 2008/09/11
1570 
1571     @ Remember whether the process is allowed to write to /proc/ccs/ interface.
1572 
1573       Since programs for manipulating policy (e.g. ccs-queryd ) are installed
1574       in the form of RPM/DEB packages, these programs lose the original
1575       pathnames when they are updated by the package manager. The package
1576       manager renames these programs before deleting these programs so that
1577       the package manager can rollback the operation.
1578       This causes a problem when the programs are listed into /proc/ccs/manager
1579       using pathnames, as the programs will no longer be allowed to write to
1580       /proc/ccs/ interface while the process of old version of the program is
1581       alive.
1582 
1583       To solve this problem, I modified to remember the fact that the process
1584       is once allowed to write to /proc/ccs/ interface until the process
1585       attempts to execute a different program.
1586       This change makes it impossible to revoke permission to write to
1587       /proc/ccs/ interface without killing the process, but it will be better
1588       than nonfunctioning ccs-queryd program.

1591 
1592     @ Allow selecting a domain by PID.
1593 
1594       Sometimes we want to know what ACLs are given to specific PID, but
1595       finding a domainname for that PID from /proc/ccs/.process_status and
1596       reading ACLs from /proc/ccs/domain_policy by the domainname is very slow.
1597       Thus, I modified /proc/ccs/domain_policy to allow selecting a domain by
1598       PID. For example, to read domain ACL of current process from bash,
1599       run as follows.
1600 
1601       # exec 100<>/proc/ccs/domain_policy
1602       # echo select pid=$$ >&100
1603       # while read -u 100; do echo $REPLY; done
1604 
1605       If a domain is once selected by PID, reading /proc/ccs/domain_policy will
1606       print only that domain if that PID exists or print nothing otherwise.
1607 
1608     @ Disallow concurrent /proc/ccs/ access using the same file descriptor.
1609 
1610       Until now, one process can read() from /proc/ccs/ while other process
1611       that shares the file descriptor can write() to /proc/ccs/ .
1612       But to implement "Allow selecting a domain by PID" feature, I disabled
1613       concurrent read()/write() because the feature need to modify read buffer
1614       while writing.

1626     @ Don't transit to new domain until do_execve() succeeds.
1627 
1628       Until now, a process's domain was updated to new domain which the process
1629       will belong to before do_execve() succeeds so that the kernel can do
1630       permission checks for interpreters and environment variables based on
1631       new domain. But this caused a subtle problem when other process sends
1632       signals to the process, for the process returns to old domain if
1633       do_execve() failed.
1634 
1635       So, I modified to pass new domain to functions so that I can avoid
1636       modifying a process's domain before do_execve() succeeds.

1701 
1702       To compare PID given from userland, I can't use current->pid.
1703       So, I modified to use sys_getpid() instead for current->pid.
1704 
1705       I modified to use task_tgid_nr_ns() for 2.6.25 and later instead for
1706       current->tgid when checking /proc/self/ in get_absolute_path().

1708 Fix 2008/11/07
1709 
1710     @ Fix is_alphabet_char().
1711 
1712       is_alphabet_char() should match 'A' - 'Z' and 'a' - 'z',
1713       but was matching from 'A' - 'F' and 'a' - 'f'.
1714 
1715     @ Add /proc/ccs/.execute_handler .
1716 
1717       Process information became visible to userspace by
1718       "Show process information in /proc/ccs/.process_status" feature.
1719       However, programs specified by execute_handler directive may run as
1720       non root user, making it impossible to see process information.
1721 
1722       So, I added a new interface that allows execute handler processes
1723       to see process information. The content of /proc/ccs/.execute_handler is
1724       identical to /proc/ccs/.process_status .

1727 
1728 Fix 2008/12/01
1729 
1730     @ Introduce "task.type=execute_handler" condition.
1731 
1732       The execute_handler directive is very very powerful. You can use this
1733       directive to do anything you want to do (e.g. logging and validating and
1734       modifying command line parameters and environment variables, opening and
1735       closing and redirecting files, creating pipes to implement antivirus and
1736       spam filtering, deploying a DMZ between the ssh daemon and the login
1737       shells).
1738 
1739       To be able to use this directive in a domain with keep_domain directive
1740       while limiting access to resources needed for such purposes to only
1741       programs invoked as an execute handler process, I added a new condition.
1742 
1743       In learning mode, "if task.type=execute_handler" condition part will be
1744       automatically added for requests issued by an execute_handler process.
1745 
1746     @ Introduce file's type and permissions as conditions.
1747 
1748       To be able to limit file types a process can access, I added
1749       new conditions for checking file's type and permissions.
1750       For example,
1751 
1752         allow_read /etc/fstab if path1.type=file path1.perm=0644
1753 
1754       will allow opening /etc/fstab for reading only if /etc/fstab is a regular
1755       file and it's permission is 0644, and
1756 
1757         allow_write /dev/null if path1.type=char path1.dev_major=1 path1.dev_minor=3
1758 
1759       will allow opening /dev/null for writing only if /dev/null is a character
1760       device file with major=1 and minor=3 attributes.
1761 
1762     @ Add memory quota for temporary memory used for auditing.
1763 
1764       Although there are MAX_GRANT_LOG and MAX_REJECT_LOG parameters
1765       which limit the number of entries for audit logs so that we can avoid
1766       memory consumption by audit logs, it would be more convenient if we can
1767       also limit the size in bytes.
1768       Thus, I added a new quota line.
1769 
1770         echo Dynamic: 1048576 > /proc/ccs/meminfo
1771 
1772       This quota is not applied to temporary memory used for permission checks.
1773 
1774 Fix 2008/12/09
1775 
1776     @ Fix ccs_can_save_audit_log() checks.
1777 
1778       Due to incorrect statement "if (ccs_can_save_audit_log() < 0)"
1779       while ccs_can_save_audit_log() is boolean, MAX_GRANT_LOG and
1780       MAX_REJECT_LOG were not working.
1781 
1782       This bug will trigger OOM killer if /usr/sbin/ccs-auditd is not working.
1783 
1784 Fix 2008/12/24
1785 
1786     @ Add "ccs_" prefix.
1787 
1788       To be able to tell whether a symbol is TOMOYO Linux related or not,
1789       I added "ccs_" prefix as much as possible.
1790 
1791     @ Fix ccs_check_flags() error message.
1792 
1793       I meant to print SYAORAN-ERROR: message when error == -EPERM,
1794       but I was printing it when error == 0 since 1.6.0 .
1795 
1796 Fix 2009/01/05
1797 
1798     @ Use kmap_atomic()/kunmap_atomic() for reading "struct linux_binprm".
1799 
1800       As remove_arg_zero() uses kmap_atomic(KM_USER0), I modified to use
1801       kmap_atomic(KM_USER0) rather than kmap().
1802 
1803 Fix 2009/01/28
1804 
1805     @ Fix "allow_read" + "allow_write" != "allow_read/write" problem.
1806 
1807       Since 1.6.0 , due to a bug in ccs_update_single_path_acl(),
1808       appending "allow_read/write" entry didn't update internal "allow_read"
1809       and "allow_write" entries. As a result, attempt to open(O_RDWR) succeeds
1810       but open(O_RDONLY) and open(O_WRONLY) fail.
1811 
1812       Workaround is to write an entry twice when newly appending that entry.
1813       If written twice, internal "allow_read" and "allow_write" entries
1814       are updated.
1815 
1816 Fix 2009/02/26
1817 
1818     @ Fix profile read error.
1819 
1820       Incorrect profiles were shown in /proc/ccs/profile
1821       if either CONFIG_SAKURA or CONFIG_TOMOYO is disabled.
1822 
1823 Fix 2009/03/02
1824 
1825     @ Undelete CONFIG_TOMOYO_AUDIT option.
1826 
1827       While HDD-less systems can use profiles with MAX_GRANT_LOG=0 and
1828       MAX_REJECT_LOG=0 , I undeleted CONFIG_TOMOYO_AUDIT option for saving
1829       memory used for /proc/ccs/grant_log and /proc/ccs/reject_log interfaces.
1830 
1831 Fix 2009/03/13
1832 
1833     @ Show only profile entry names ever specified.
1834 
1835       Even if an administrator specifies only COMMENT= and MAC_FOR_FILE=
1836       entries for /proc/ccs/profile , all available profile entries are shown.
1837       This was designed to help administrators to know what entries are
1838       available, but sometimes makes administrators feel noisy because of
1839       entries showing default values.
1840 
1841       Thus, I modified to show only profile entry names ever specified.
1842 
1843 Fix 2009/03/18
1844 
1845     @ Add MAC_FOR_IOCTL functionality.
1846 
1847       To be able to restrict ioctl() requests, I added MAC_FOR_IOCTL
1848       functionality.
1849 
1850       This functionality requires modification of ccs-patch-\*.diff .
1851 
1852     @ Use better name for socket's pathname.
1853 
1854       Until now, socket's pathname was represented as "socket:[\$]" format
1855       where \$ is inode's number. But inode's number is useless for name based
1856       access control. Therefore, I modified to represent socket's pathname as
1857       "socket:[family=\$:type=\$:protocol=\$]" format.
1858 
1859       This will help administrator to control ioctl() against sockets more
1860       precisely.
1861 
1862     @ Fix misplaced ccs_capable() call.  (only 2.6.8-\* and 2.6.9-\*)
1863 
1864       Location to insert ccs_capable(TOMOYO_SYS_IOCTL) in sys_ioctl() was
1865       wrong since version 1.1 .
1866 
1867     @ Insert ccs_check_ioctl_permission() call.
1868 
1869       To make MAC_FOR_IOCTL functionality working, I inserted
1870       ccs_check_ioctl_permission() call into ccs-patch-\*.diff .
1871 
1872 Fix 2009/03/23
1873 
1874     @ Move sysctl()'s check from ccs-patch-\*.diff to fs/tomoyo_file.c .
1875 
1876       Since try_parse_table() in kernel/sysctl.c is almost identical between
1877       all versions, I moved that function to fs/tomoyo_file.c .
1878 
1879     @ Relocate definitions and functions.
1880 
1881       To reduce exposed symbols, I relocated some definitions and functions.
1882 
1883 Fix 2009/03/24
1884 
1885     @ Add CONFIG_TOMOYO_BUILTIN_INITIALIZERS option.
1886 
1887       Some systems don't have /sbin/modprobe and /sbin/hotplug .
1888       Thus, I made these pathnames configurable.

1892 Fix 2009/04/06
1893 
1894     @ Drop "undelete domain" command.
1895 
1896       I added "undelete domain" command on 2007/01/19, but never used by policy
1897       management tools. The garbage collector I added on 2007/01/29 will
1898       automatically reuse memory and allow administrators switch domain policy
1899       periodically, provided that the administrator kills processes in old
1900       domains before recreating new domains with the same domainnames.
1901 
1902       Thus, I dropped "undelete domain" command.
1903 
1904     @ Escape invalid characters in ccs_check_mount_permission2().
1905 
1906       ccs_check_mount_permission2() was passing unencoded strings to printk()
1907       and ccs_update_mount_acl() and ccs_check_supervisor(). This may cause
1908       /proc/ccs/system_policy and /proc/ccs/query to contain invalid
1909       characters within a string.
1910 
1911 Fix 2009/04/07
1912 
1913     @ Fix IPv4's "address_group" handling error.
1914 
1915       Since 1.6.5 , due to lack of ntohl() (byte order conversion) in
1916       ccs_update_address_group_entry(), "address_group" with IPv4 address was
1917       not working.
1918 
1919       This problem happens on little endian platforms (e.g. x86).
1920 
1921 Fix 2009/05/08
1922 
1923     @ Add condition for symlink's target pathname.
1924 
1925       Until now, "allow_symlink" keyword allows creation of a symlink but does
1926       not check the symlink's target. Usually it is no problem because
1927       permission checks are done using dereferenced pathname. But in some
1928       cases, we should restrict the symlink's target. For example,
1929       "ln -s .htpasswd /var/www/html/readme.html" by CGI program should be
1930       blocked because we will allow Apache to read both
1931       /var/www/html/readme.html and /var/www/html/.htpasswd .
1932 
1933       Thus, I added new condition, "symlink.target".
1934 
1935         allow_symlink /var/www/html/\*.html if symlink.target="\*.html"
1936 
1937         allow_symlink /var/www/html/\*\-.\* if symlink.target="\*\-.\*"
1938 
1939     @ Don't return -EAGAIN at ccs_socket_recvmsg_permission().
1940 
1941       It turned out that it is not permitted for accept() and recvmsg() to
1942       return -EAGAIN if poll() said connections/datagrams are ready. However,
1943       recvmsg() may return -EAGAIN and potentially confuse some applications
1944       because ccs_socket_recvmsg_permission() is returning -EAGAIN.
1945 
1946       Thus, I modified ccs_socket_recvmsg_permission() to return -ENOMEM
1947       rather than -EAGAIN.
1948 
1949 Fix 2009/05/19
1950 
1951     @ Don't call get_fs_type() with a mutex held.
1952 
1953       Until now, when ccs_update_mount_acl() is called with unsupported
1954       filesystem, /sbin/modprobe is executed from get_fs_type() to load
1955       filesystem module. And get_fs_type() does not return until /sbin/modprobe
1956       finishes.
1957 
1958       This means that it will cause deadlock if /sbin/modprobe (which is
1959       executed via get_fs_type() in ccs_update_mount_acl()) calls
1960       ccs_update_mount_acl(); although it won't happen unless an administrator
1961       inserts execute_handler to call mount() requests in learning mode or to
1962       add "allow_mount" entries to /proc/ccs/system_policy .
1963 
1964       I modified to unlock the mutex before calling get_fs_type().

1969 
1970       Since 1.5.0, I was doing network access control for incoming UDP and RAW
1971       packets inside skb_recv_datagram(). But to synchronize with LSM version,
1972       I moved ccs_recv_datagram_permission() hook from skb_recv_datagram() to
1973       udp_recvmsg()/udpv6_recvmsg()/raw_recvmsg()/rawv6_recvmsg() with name
1974       change to ccs_recvmsg_permission().

1980     @ Fix buffer overrun when used with CONFIG_SLOB=y .
1981 
1982       Since 1.6.7 , ccs_allocate_execve_entry() was requesting for only 4000
1983       bytes while the comment says it is 4096 bytes. This may lead to buffer
1984       overrun when slob allocator is used, for slob allocator allocates exactly
1985       4000 bytes whereas slab and slub allocators allocate 4096 bytes.
1986 
1987 Fix 2009/09/01
1988 
1989     @ Add garbage collector support.
1990 
1991       Until now, it was impossible to release memory used by deleted policy.
1992       I added SRCU based garbage collector so that memory used by deleted
1993       policy will be automatically released.
1994 
1995     @ Remove word length limitation and line length limitation.
1996 
1997       Until now, the max length of a word is 4000 and the max length of a line
1998       is 8192. To be able to handle longer pathnames, I removed these
1999       limitations. Now, the max length (except the domainname and
2000       argv[]/envp[]) is 128K (which is the max amount of memory kmalloc()
2001       can allocate in most environments).

2014     @ Allow number grouping.
2015 
2016       To help specifying numeric values, a new directive "number_group" is

2018 
2019     @ Remove "alias" directive and "allow_argv0" directive.
2020 
2021       Until now, "allow_execute" used dereferenced pathname if it is a symlink
2022       unless explicitly specified by "alias" directive.
2023 
2024       Now, "allow_execute" uses symlink's pathname if it is a symlink.
2025       "exec.realpath" in "if" clause checks the dereferenced pathname.
2026       "exec.argv[0]" in "if" clause checks the invocation name.
2027 
2028     @ Remove /proc/ccs/system_policy and /etc/ccs/system_policy.conf .
2029 
2030       "deny_autobind" was moved to /proc/ccs/exception_policy and
2031       /etc/ccs/exception_policy.conf . Other directives were moved to
2032       /proc/ccs/domain_policy and /etc/ccs/domain_policy.conf .
2033 
2034     @ Remove syaoran filesystem.
2035 
2036       Since "allow_create"/"allow_mkdir"/"allow_mkfifo"/"allow_mksock"/
2037       "allow_mkblock"/"allow_mkchar"/"allow_chmod"/"allow_chown"/"allow_chgrp"
2038       can restrict mode changes and owner/group changes, there is no need to
2039       restrict these changes at filesystem level.
2040 
2041       Thus, I removed syaoran filesystem.
2042 
2043     @ Reduce spinlocks.
2044 
2045       Until now, TOMOYO was using own list for detecting memory leak. But as
2046       kernel 2.6.31 introduced memory leak detection mechanism
2047       ( CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK ), TOMOYO no longer needs to use own list.
2048 
2049       I removed the list to reduce use of spinlocks.

2056 
2057       open(pathname, 3) means open for ioctl() only.
2058       Until now, TOMOYO was checking "allow_read/write" for open(pathname, 3).
2059       But since TOMOYO checks "allow_ioctl" for ioctl(), I modified not to

2074     @ Add global PID to audit logs.
2075 
2076       ccs-queryd was using domainname for reaching the domain which the process
2077       belongs to, but the domain could be deleted while ccs-queryd is handling
2078       policy violation. If the domain is deleted, ccs-queryd no longer can
2079       reach the domain by domainname. Thus, ccs-queryd now uses PID for
2080       reaching the domain which the process belongs to.
2081 
2082       Kernel 2.6.24 introduced PID namespace. The PID in access logs generated
2083       by a process inside a container is useless for ccs-queryd for reaching
2084       the domain which the process belongs to.
2085 
2086       Thus, I added global PID in audit logs.

2106     @ Fix wrong error code in ccs_try_alt_exec().
2107 
2108       ccs_try_alt_exec() was returning ENOMEM when kmalloc() failed.
2109       It needs to return -ENOMEM to fail.

2111 Fix 2009/09/10
2112 
2113     @ Do not check umount() permission for mount(MS_MOVE) requests.
2114 
2115       Until 1.6.x , umount() restriction was black listing. In 1.7.0 , it is
2116       white listing. This change caused "mount --move old new" requests to
2117       require "allow_unmount old" permission in addition to
2118       "allow_mount old new --move 0" permission.
2119       But we don't want to allow umount(old) requests when we want to allow
2120       only mount(old, new, MS_MOVE) requests. Thus, I modified not to check
2121       "allow_unmount old" permission for mount(old, new, MS_MOVE) requests.
2122 
2123 Fix 2009/09/11
2124 
2125     @ Support recursive match operators.
2126 
2127       Until now, ccs_path_matches_pattern() did not support recursive
2128       comparison. Thus, users had to repeat "/\*" when they want to specify
2129       recursively.
2130 
2131       I introduced "\{" and "\}" as repetition operator.
2132       To ensure consistency with TOMOYO's '/'-tokenized pattern matching rules
2133       and "\-" operator, only "/\{dir\}/" sequences (where dir does not contain
2134       '/') is permitted.
2135 
2136 Fix 2009/09/24
2137 
2138     @ Don't check chmod/chown capability for requests from kernel.
2139 
2140       Until now, ccs_setattr_permission() was inserted in notify_change().
2141       But notify_change() is also called by requests from kernel (e.g. UnionFS)
2142       and it made difficult to use TOMOYO on UnionFS.
2143 
2144       Thus, I moved ccs_capable() checks from ccs_setattr_permission() to
2145       ccs_chmod_permission() and ccs_chown_permission(), and removed
2146       ccs_setattr_permission().
2147 
2148 Fix 2009/09/25
2149 
2150     @ Embed more information into audit logs.
2151 
2152       Until now, /proc/ccs/grant_log /proc/ccs/reject_log /proc/ccs/query were
2153       not printing file's information (e.g. file's uid/gid/mode).
2154 
2155       Recently, users who started using "if" clause expect that the learning
2156       mode automatically adds various conditions like "if task.uid=path1.uid".
2157 
2158       But the profile will become too complicated if I support all possible
2159       conditions. Thus, I added all information which is enough to generate
2160       "if" clause with all possible conditions from audit logs.
2161 
2162       Now, the learning mode got different usage. Users can specify
2163       "CONFIG::learning={ max_entry=0 }" in the profile. All requests which
2164       are not permitted by policy will be sent to /proc/ccs/reject_log with
2165       "mode=learning" header lines. Users can selectively append conditions
2166       and append to the policy using "/usr/sbin/ccs-loadpolicy -d".
2167       The learning mode with "CONFIG::learning={ max_entry=0 }" is almost
2168       the same with the permissive mode, only difference is "mode=learning"
2169       and "mode=permissive".

2171 Fix 2009/10/05
2172 
2173     @ Fix size truncation bug at ccs_memcmp().
2174 
2175       ccs_memcmp() was using "u8" for size parameter by error. Therefore, when
2176       size >= 256 was passed to ccs_memcmp(), it was doing partial comparison
2177       (incorrect result) or read overrun (CPU stall).
2178 
2179       ccs_memcmp() should use "size_t" for size parameter because size of
2180       "struct ccs_condition" may exceed 256 bytes if complicated condition was
2181       given.

2190     @ Add CONFIG_CCSECURITY_ALTERNATIVE_TRIGGER option.
2191 
2192       Some environments do not have /sbin/init . In such environments, we need
2193       to use different program's pathname (e.g. /init or /linuxrc ) as
2194       activation trigger.
2195 
2196       Thus, I made the alternative trigger ( /sbin/ccs-start ) configurable.

2214 
2215     @ Reduce mutexes.
2216 
2217       I was using mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock() so that I can use
2218       atomic_dec_and_test() for removing an element from a list.
2219       I moved that operation to garbage collector in order to reduce frequency

2226       ccs_read_number_group_policy(), I wasn't.
2227 
2228       As a result, reading path_group and number_group caused kernel oops

2256 
2257     @ Don't check "allow_write" permission for open(O_RDONLY | O_TRUNC).
2258 
2259       Since TOMOYO checks "allow_truncate" permission rather than "allow_write"
2260       permission for O_TRUNC, I need to distinguish open(O_RDONLY | O_TRUNC)
2261       and open(O_RDWR | O_TRUNC). But I made a mistake between TOMOYO 1.7.0 and
2262       1.7.1 which made it impossible for TOMOYO for kernels 2.6.14 and earlier
2263       to distinguish them.

2277       rcu_read_lock() rather than read_lock(&tasklist_lock) because find_pid()
2278       uses RCU primitives but spinlock does not prevent RCU callback if

2286       To notify users of "this domain has too many entries to hold" and "some
2287       process in this domain was not able to perform domain transition",
2288       "quota_exceeded" and "transition_failed" messages are used respectively.
2289       These messages were not deletable. But it is more convenient for users
2290       to be notified again if such events occurred again after tuning policy.
2291       Thus, I made these messages deletable.

2297       While I was trying to remove ccs_execve_list list for GC optimization
2298       between TOMOYO 1.7.0 and 1.7.1 , I made a mistake which made TOMOYO to

2303 
2304       I was checking DAC permissions regarding directory entry modification

2330 Fix 2010/03/02
2331 
2332     @ Allow domain transition without execve().
2333 
2334       To be able to split permissions for Apache's CGI programs which are
2335       executed without execve(), I added special domain transition which is
2336       performed by atomically writing '\0'-terminated binary string to
2337       /proc/ccs/.transition interface. For example, a process which belongs to
2338       "<kernel> /usr/sbin/httpd" domain will transit to
2339       "<kernel> /usr/sbin/httpd //app=cgi1\040id=10000" domain by atomically
2340       writing "app=cgi1 id=10000" + '\0' to /proc/ccs/.transition using
2341       Apache's ap_hook_handler() functionality.
2342 
2343       Note that '\0'-terminated binary string is converted to TOMOYO's string
2344       inside kernel and prefix "//" is automatically added to the string so
2345       that domainname does not conflict with domainnames created by execve().
2346       Without this prefix, if "<kernel> /usr/sbin/sshd /bin/bash" domain is
2347       allowed to open /proc/ccs/.transition for writing and
2348       "<kernel> /usr/sbin/sshd /bin/bash /usr/bin/passwd" domain is allowed to
2349       access /etc/shadow , /bin/bash will be able to access /etc/shadow by
2350       atomically writing "/usr/bin/passwd" + '\0' to /proc/ccs/.transition .
2351       Allowing /bin/bash to access /etc/shadow is not what people want.
2352 
2353       Permission for this operation is checked by "allow_transit" keyword.
2354       Unlike "allow_execute" keyword, the string parameter for "allow_transit"
2355       keyword does not refer a real file on filesystem's namespace. Therefore,
2356       you can store any combination of parameters like LDAP's DN entry in the
2357       string parameter for "allow_transit" keyword.

2364       possible to compile TOMOYO Linux as loadable kernel module.
2365       Although patching the kernel source and recompiling the kernel are
2366       inevitable, this change will make it easier to enable TOMOYO Linux

2446     @ Fix umount() pathname calculation.
2447 
2448       "mount --bind /path/to/file1 /path/to/file2" is legal.
2449       Therefore, "umount /path/to/file2" is also legal.

2451       does not end with '/'.
2452 
2453     @ Add preserve KABI compatibility option. (2.6 kernels only)
2454 
2455       TOMOYO needs "struct ccs_domain_info *" and "u32" for each
2456       "struct task_struct". But embedding these variables into
2457       "struct task_struct" breaks KABI for prebuilt kernel modules (which
2458       means that you will need to rebuild prebuilt kernel modules).
2459 
2460       Since KABI is commonly used (compared to 5 years ago), asking users to
2461       rebuild kernel modules which are not included in kernel package is no
2462       longer preferable. Therefore, I added a new option that keeps
2463       "struct task_struct" unmodified in order to keep KABI.
2464 
2465       Note that you have to use ccs-patch-2.6.\*.diff which patches
2466       kernel/fork.c in order to use this option. Otherwise, TOMOYO will leak
2467       memory whenever "struct task_struct" is released.
2468 
2469     @ Change directives.
2470 
2471       I removed "allow_" prefix from directives. New directives for files are
2472       prefixed with "file ". For example, "allow_read" changed to "file read",
2473       "allow_ioctl" changed to "file ioctl". New directive for "allow_network
2474       TCP" is "network inet stream", "allow_network UDP" is "network inet
2475       dgram", "allow_network RAW" is "network inet raw". New directive for
2476       "allow_env" is "misc env". New directive for "allow_signal" is "ipc
2477       signal". New directive for "allow_capability" is "capability". These new
2478       directives correspond with keywords used by profile's CONFIG lines.
2479 
2480       I removed "deny_rewrite" and "allow_rewrite" directives and introduced
2481       "file append" directive. Thus, permission for open(O_WRONLY | O_APPEND)
2482       changed from "allow_write" + "allow_rewrite" to "file append".
2483 
2484       I removed "SYS_MOUNT", "SYS_UMOUNT", "SYS_CHROOT", "SYS_KILL",
2485       "SYS_LINK", "SYS_SYMLINK", "SYS_RENAME", "SYS_UNLINK", "SYS_CHMOD",
2486       "SYS_CHOWN", "SYS_IOCTL", "SYS_PIVOT_ROOT" keywords from capabilities
2487       because these permissions can be checked by other directives (e.g.
2488       "file mount", "ipc signal").
2489 
2490       I also removed "conceal_mount" keyword from capabilities because this
2491       check requires hooks in filesystem part while almost all hooks for
2492       filesystem part have moved to LSM by Linux 2.6.34.
2493 
2494       New directive for "execute_handler" is "task auto_execute_handler",
2495       "denied_execute_handler" is "task denied_execute_handler".
2496 
2497     @ Distinguish send() and recv() operations.
2498 
2499       Until now, it was impossible for UDP and IP sockets to allow either
2500       only sending or only receiving because permissions were aggregated with
2501       "connect" keyword. I broke "connect" keyword into "send" and "recv"
2502       keywords so that you can keep access control for send() operation enabled
2503       when you have to disable access control for recv() operation due to
2504       application breakage by discarding incoming datagram.
2505 
2506     @ Add Unix domain socket restriction support.
2507 
2508       Until now, it was possible to restrict only inet domain sockets (i.e.
2509       TCP/UDP/RAW). I added restriction for Unix domain sockets (i.e. stream/
2510       dgram/seqpacket). New directive "network unix" is added as well as
2511       "network inet" directive.
2512 
2513     @ Allow specifying multiple permissions in a line.
2514 
2515       Until now, only "allow_read/write" can be specified for combination of
2516       "allow_read" + "allow_write". Now, you can combine other permissions as
2517       long as type of parameters for these permissions is same. For example,
2518       "file read/write/append/execute/unlink/truncate /tmp/file" is correct
2519       but "file read/write/create /tmp/file" is wrong because "file create"
2520       requires create mode whereas "file read" and "file write" do not.
2521 
2522     @ Allow wildcard for execute permission and domainname.
2523 
2524       Until now, to execute programs with temporary names, "aggregator" is
2525       needed. To simplify code, I modified to accept wildcards for execute
2526       permission and domainname. Now, you can directly specify
2527       "file execute /tmp/logrotate.\?\?\?\?\?\?" and use
2528       "/tmp/logrotate.\?\?\?\?\?\?" within domainnames.
2529 
2530     @ Change pathname for non-rename()able filesystems.
2531 
2532       LSM version of TOMOYO wants to use /proc/self/ rather than /proc/$PID/ if
2533       $PID matches current thread's process ID in order to prevent current
2534       thread from accessing other process's information unless needed.
2535       But since procfs can be mounted on various locations (e.g. /proc/ /proc2/
2536       /p/ /tmp/foo/100/p/ ), LSM version of TOMOYO cannot tell that whether the
2537       numeric part in the string returned by __d_path() represents process ID
2538       or not.
2539 
2540       Therefore, to be able to convert from $PID to self no matter where procfs
2541       is mounted, I changed pathname representations for filesystems which do
2542       not support rename() operation (e.g. proc, sysfs, securityfs).
2543 
2544       Now, "/proc/self/mounts" changed to "proc:/self/mounts" and
2545       "/sys/kernel/security/" changed to "sys:/kernel/security/" and
2546       "/dev/pts/0" changed to "devpts:/0".
2547 
2548     @ Add a new keyword "any" for domain transition control.
2549 
2550       To be able to make it easier to apply auto_execute_handler on each
2551       domain, I added "any" keyword to domain transition control keywords. Now,
2552       "initialize_domain /usr/sbin/sshd" changed to
2553       "initialize_domain /usr/sbin/sshd from any" and
2554       "keep_domain <kernel> /usr/sbin/sshd /bin/bash" changed to
2555       "keep_domain any from <kernel> /usr/sbin/sshd /bin/bash".
2556 
2557       "keep_domain /path/to/auto_execute_handler from any" will allow you to
2558       apply auto_execute_handler for any domains without creating domains for
2559       auto_execute_handler.
2560 
2561     @ Change buffering mode for reading policy.
2562 
2563       To be able to read() very very long lines correctly, I changed the way
2564       TOMOYO buffers policy for reading.
2565 
2566     @ Introduce "acl_group" keyword.
2567 
2568       Until now, it was possible to specify only "allow_read" and "allow_env"
2569       keywords in the exception policy.
2570 
2571       Since some operations like "file read/write/append /dev/null" and
2572       "network UDP send/recv @DNS_SERVER 53" are very common and should be
2573       permitted to all domains, I introduced "acl_group" keyword for giving
2574       such permissions.
2575 
2576       For example, specify "acl_group 0 file read/write/append /dev/null" in
2577       the exception policy and specify "use_group 0" from the domains in the
2578       domain policy.
2579 
2580       "ignore_global_allow_read" and "ignore_global_allow_env" directives were
2581       removed from domain policy and "use_group" keyword was added.
2582 
2583     @ Remove "if" and "; set" keyword.
2584 
2585       I removed need for specifying these keyword.
2586       You can simply specify like below.
2587 
2588         file read /etc/shadow task.uid=0
2589 
2590     @ Remove "file_pattern" keyword.
2591 
2592       I removed "file_pattern" keyword because it is impossible to predefine
2593       all possible pathname patterns. Also, learning pathnames using incomplete
2594       patterns makes it difficult to later replace using "path_group" keyword.
2595 
2596     @ Replace verbose= parameter with statistic interface.
2597 
2598       Since it is noisy if a lot of policy violation messages are printed,
2599       I removed printk(). To be able to check whether policy violation occurred
2600       or not, I introduced /proc/ccs/stat interface which counts number of
2601       policy violations occurred. You can firstly check /proc/ccs/stat and then
2602       check /proc/ccs/reject_log .
2603 
2604     @ Remove global preference.
2605 
2606       I removed global preference in order to make code simpler.
2607 
2608     @ Allow controlling generation of access granted logs for per an entry
2609       basis.
2610 
2611       I added per-entry flag which controls generation of grant logs because
2612       Xen and KVM issues ioctl requests so frequently. For example,
2613 
2614         file ioctl /dev/null 0x5401 grant_log=no
2615 
2616       will suppress /proc/ccs/grant_log even if preference says grant_log=yes .
2617 
2618         file ioctl /dev/null 0x5401 grant_log=yes
2619 
2620       will generate /proc/ccs/grant_log even if preference says grant_log=no .
2621 
2622         file ioctl /dev/null 0x5401
2623 
2624       will generate /proc/ccs/grant_log only if preference says grant_log=yes .
2625 
2626       This flag is intended for frequently accessed resources like
2627 
2628         file read /var/www/html/\{\*\}/\*.html grant_log=no
2629 
2630       .
2631 
2632     @ Automatically create domain by execve() even if enforcing mode.
2633 
2634       Until now, new domains are not created if the domain was not defined and
2635       current domain is enforcing mode ("CONFIG::file::execute=enforcing").
2636 
2637       To be able to restrict shell session without using "keep_domain",
2638       I changed to create new domains automatically even if current domain is
2639       enforcing mode.
2640 
2641     @ Replace "task.state" with "auto_domain_transition".
2642 
2643       task.state is difficult to use. Thus, I replaced task.state with
2644       auto_domain_transition which performs domain transition instead of
2645       changing current process's state variables.
2646 
2647       If domain transition failed, current process will be killed by SIGKILL
2648       signal. This should not happen in normal circumstances, for you know the
2649       domain to transit to and thereby you will define the domain beforehand
2650       when you use "auto_domain_transition" keyword.
2651 
2652     @ Replace "allow_transit" with "task manual_domain_transition".
2653 
2654       I changed this directive to specify absolute domainname (e.g.
2655       "<kernel> /usr/sbin/httpd //app=cgi1\040id=10000") rather than virtual
2656       pathname (e.g. "//app=cgi1\040id=10000") because you know the domain to
2657       transit to and thereby you will define the domain beforehand when you use
2658       "task manual_domain_transition" directive.
2659 
2660       This change allows you to jump to arbitrary domain.
2661 
2662       Note that this change also reverts "Change /proc/ccs/info/self_domain ."
2663       made on 2006/10/24. Now, 'cat < /proc/ccs/info/self_domain' will act like
2664       'cat /proc/ccs/info/self_domain'. Programs depending on old assumption
2665       need to be updated.
2666 
2667     @ Add "task auto_domain_transition".
2668 
2669       This is similar to "task manual_domain_transition", but is automatically
2670       applied whenever conditions are met. For example,
2671 
2672         task auto_domain_transition <kernel> //./non-root task.uid!=0
2673 
2674       will automatically jump to "<kernel> //./non-root" domain if current
2675       process's UID is not 0 whereas
2676 
2677         task manual_domain_transition <kernel> //./non-root task.uid!=0
2678 
2679       will jump to "<kernel> //./non-root" domain if current process's UID is
2680       not 0 and current process wrote "<kernel> //./non-root" to
2681       /proc/ccs/self_domain interface.
2682 
2683       If domain transition failed, current process will be killed by SIGKILL
2684       signal.
2685 
2686     @ Optimize for object's size.

2688       I merged similar code in order to reduce object's filesize.

2692 Fix 2010/12/01
2693 
2694     @ Use same interface for audit logs.
2695 
2696       To be able to perform fine grained filtering by /usr/sbin/ccs-auditd ,
2697       I merged /proc/ccs/grant_log and /proc/ccs/reject_log as
2698       /proc/ccs/audit and added granted=yes or granted=no to audit logs.
2699 
2700 Fix 2010/12/17
2701 
2702     @ Split ccs_null_security into ccs_default_security and ccs_oom_security.
2703 
2704       ccs_null_security is used by preserve KABI compatibility option and is
2705       used for providing default values against threads which have not yet
2706       allocated memory for their security contexts.
2707 
2708       If current thread failed to allocate memory for current thread's security
2709       context, current thread uses ccs_null_security. Since current thread is
2710       allowed to modify current thread's security context, current thread might
2711       modify ccs_null_security which should not be modified for any reason.
2712 
2713       Therefore, I split ccs_null_security into ccs_default_security and
2714       ccs_oom_security and use ccs_oom_security when current thread failed to
2715       allocate memory for current thread's security context.
2716 
2717       Threads which do not share ccs_oom_security are not affected by threads
2718       which share ccs_oom_security. Threads which share ccs_oom_security will
2719       experience temporary inconsistency, but such threads are about to be
2720       killed by SIGKILL signal.
2721 
2722 Fix 2011/01/11
2723 
2724     @ Use filesystem name for unnamed devices when vfsmount is missing.
2725 
2726       "Change pathname for non-rename()able filesystems." changed to use
2727       "$fsname:" if the filesystem does not support rename() operation and
2728       "dev($major,$minor):" otherwise when vfsmount is missing. But it turned
2729       out that it is useless to use "dev($major,$minor):" for unnamed devices
2730       (filesystems with $major == 0). Thus, I changed to use "$fsname:" rather
2731       than "dev($major,$minor):" for filesystems with $major == 0 when vfsmount
2732       is missing.
2733 
2734 Fix 2011/02/07
2735 
2736     @ Fix infinite loop bug when reading /proc/ccs/audit or /proc/ccs/query .
2737 
2738       In ccs_flush(), head->r.w[0] holds pointer to string data to be printed.
2739       But head->r.w[0] was updated only when the string data was partially
2740       printed (because head->r.w[0] will be updated by head->r.w[1] later if
2741       completely printed). However, regarding /proc/ccs/audit and
2742       /proc/ccs/query , an additional '\0' is printed after the string data was
2743       completely printed. But if free space for read buffer became 0 before
2744       printing the additional '\0', ccs_flush() was returning without updating
2745       head->r.w[0]. As a result, ccs_flush() forever reprints already printed
2746       string data.
2747 
2748 Fix 2011/03/01
2749 
2750     @ Run garbage collector without waiting for /proc/ccs/ users.
2751 
2752       Currently TOMOYO holds SRCU lock upon open() and releases it upon close()
2753       because list elements stored in the "struct ccs_io_buffer" instances are
2754       accessed until close() is called. However, such SRCU usage causes lockdep
2755       to complain about leaving the kernel with SRCU lock held. Therefore,
2756       I changed to hold/release SRCU upon each read()/write() by selectively
2757       deferring kfree() by keeping track of the "struct ccs_io_buffer"
2758       instances.
2759 
2760 Fix 2011/03/05
2761 
2762     @ Support built-in policy configuration.
2763 
2764       To be able to start using enforcing mode from the early stage of boot
2765       sequence, I added support for built-in policy configuration and
2766       activating access control without calling external policy loader program.
2767 
2768       This will be useful for systems where operations which can lead to the
2769       hijacking of the boot sequence are needed before loading the policy.
2770       For example, you can activate immediately after loading the fixed part of
2771       policy which will allow only operations needed for mounting a partition
2772       which contains the variant part of policy and verifying (e.g. running GPG
2773       check) and loading the variant part of policy. Since you can start using
2774       enforcing mode from the beginning, you can reduce the possibility of
2775       hijacking the boot sequence.

2785     @ Pack policy when printing via /proc/ccs/ interface.
2786 
2787       The kernel side is ready for accepting packed input like
2788 
2789         file read/write/execute /path/to/file
2790 
2791       but was using unpacked output like
2792 
2793         file read /path/to/file
2794         file write /path/to/file
2795         file execute /path/to/file
2796 
2797       because most of userland tools were not ready for accepting packed input.
2798 
2799       The advantages of using packed policy are that it makes policy files
2800       smaller and it speeds up loading/saving policy files.
2801 
2802       Since most of userland tools are ready for accepting packed input by now,
2803       I changed to use packed policy for both input and output.

2818 Fix 2011/04/03
2819 
2820     @ Fix fcntl(F_SETFL, O_APPEND) handling.
2821 
2822       Since 1.8.0, TOMOYO was by error checking "file write" permission rather
2823       than "file append" permission when changing file's writing mode from
2824       "overwriting" to "append".
2825 
2826       This error should impact little (except CentOS 6.0 kernels) because once
2827       a file was opened for "overwriting" mode, changing that file to "append"
2828       mode cannot undo overwriting the file. Regarding CentOS 6.0 kernels,
2829       due to different ACC_MODE definition, TOMOYO was by error needlessly
2830       checking "file read" permission when fcntl() was requested.

2859 
2860     @ Add policy namespace support.
2861 
2862       To be able to use TOMOYO in LXC environments, I introduced policy
2863       namespace. Each policy namespace has its own set of domain policy,
2864       exception policy and profiles, which are all independent of other
2865       namespaces.
2866 
2867     @ Remove CONFIG_CCSECURITY_BUILTIN_INITIALIZERS option.
2868 
2869       From now on, exception policy and manager need to be able to handle
2870       policy namespace (which is a <$namespace> prefix added to each line).
2871       Thus, space-separated list for CONFIG_CCSECURITY_BUILTIN_INITIALIZERS is
2872       no longer suitable for handling policy namespace.

2897     @ Remove /proc/ccs/.domain_status interface.
2898 
2899       Writing to /proc/ccs/.domain_status can be emulated by
2900 
2901         ( echo "select " $domainname; echo "use_profile " $profile ) |
2902         /usr/sbin/ccs-loadpolicy -d
2903 
2904       and reading from /proc/ccs/.domain_status can be emulated by
2905 
2906         grep -A 1 '^<' /proc/ccs/domain_policy |
2907         awk ' { if ( domainname == "" ) { if ( substr($1, 1, 1) == "<" )
2908         domainname = $0; } else if ( $1 == "use_profile" ) {
2909         print $2 " " domainname; domainname = ""; } } ; '
2910 
2911       . Since this interface is used by only /usr/sbin/ccs-setprofile ,
2912       remove this interface by updating /usr/sbin/ccs-setprofile .

2914 Fix 2011/07/09
2915 
2916     @ Fix /proc/ccs/stat parser.
2917 
2918       For optimization, I changed to use simple_strtoul() rather than sscanf()
2919       in ccs_write_stat(). But it caused parsing failure if space is inserted
2920       before value (e.g. "Memory used by policy: $value").
2921 
2922 Fix 2011/07/13
2923 
2924     @ Accept "::" notation for IPv6 address.
2925 
2926       In order to add network access restriction to TOMOYO 2.4, I backported
2927       routines for parsing/printing IPv4/IPv6 address from kernel 3.0 into
2928       TOMOYO 1.8.2.
2929       Now, IPv6 address accepts "::1" instead of "0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1".

2931 Fix 2011/09/03
2932 
2933     @ Avoid race when retrying "file execute" permission check.
2934 
2935       There was a race window that the pathname which is subjected to
2936       "file execute" permission check when retrying via supervisor's decision
2937       because the pathname was recalculated upon retry. Though, there is an
2938       inevitable race window even without supervisor, for we have to calculate
2939       the symbolic link's pathname from "struct linux_binprm"->filename rather
2940       than from "struct linux_binprm"->file because we cannot back calculate
2941       the symbolic link's pathname from the dereferenced pathname.
2942 
2943     @ Remove unneeded daemonize().
2944 
2945       Garbage collector thread is created using kthread_create() since 2.6.7.
2946       Kernel threads created by kthread_create() does not need to call
2947       daemonize().
2948 
2949 Fix 2011/09/16
2950 
2951     @ Allow specifying domain transition preference.
2952 
2953       I got an opinion that it is difficult to use exception policy's domain
2954       transition control directives because they need to match the pathname
2955       specified to "file execute" directives. For example, if "file execute
2956       /bin/\*\-ls\-cat" is given, corresponding domain transition control
2957       directive needs to be like "no_keep_domain /bin/\*\-ls\-cat from any".
2958 
2959       To solve this difficulty, I introduced optional argument that supersedes
2960       exception policy's domain transition control directives.
2961 
2962         file execute /bin/ls keep exec.realpath="/bin/ls" exec.argv[0]="ls"
2963         file execute /bin/cat keep exec.realpath="/bin/cat" exec.argv[0]="cat"
2964         file execute /bin/\*\-ls\-cat child
2965         file execute /usr/sbin/httpd <apache> exec.realpath="/usr/sbin/httpd" exec.argv[0]="/usr/sbin/httpd"
2966 
2967       This argument allows transition to different domains based on conditions.
2968 
2969         <kernel> /usr/sbin/sshd
2970         file execute /bin/bash <kernel> /usr/sbin/sshd //batch-session exec.argc=2 exec.argv[1]="-c"
2971         file execute /bin/bash <kernel> /usr/sbin/sshd //root-session task.uid=0
2972         file execute /bin/bash <kernel> /usr/sbin/sshd //nonroot-session task.uid!=0

2974 Fix 2011/09/25
2975 
2976     @ Simplify garbage collector.
2977 
2978       It turned out that use of batched processing tends to choke garbage
2979       collector when certain pattern of entries are queued. Thus, I replaced it
2980       with sequential processing.

2984 Fix 2011/10/24
2985 
2986     @ Fix incomplete read after seek.
2987 
2988       ccs_flush() tries to flush data to be read as soon as possible.
2989       ccs_select_domain() (which is called by write()) enqueues data which
2990       meant to be read by next read(), but previous read()'s read buffer's
2991       size was not cleared. As a result, since 1.8.0, sequence like
2992 
2993         char *cp = "select global-pid=1\n";
2994         read(fd, buf1, sizeof(buf1));
2995         write(fd, cp, strlen(cp));
2996         read(fd, buf2, sizeof(buf2));
2997 
2998       causes enqueued data to be flushed to buf1 rather than buf2.
2999 
3000     @ Use query id for reaching target process's domain policy.
3001 
3002       Use query id for reaching target process's domain policy rather than
3003       target process's global PID. This is for synchronizing with TOMOYO 2.x,
3004       but this change makes /usr/sbin/ccs-queryd more reliable because the
3005       kernel will return empty domain policy when the query has expired before
3006       ccs-queryd reaches target process's domain policy.
3007 
3008     @ Fix quota counting.
3009 
3010       "task manual_domain_transition" should not be counted for quota as with
3011       "task auto_domain_transition"/"task auto_execute_handler"/
3012       "task denied_execute_handler" because these are not appended by learning
3013       mode.

3015 Fix 2011/11/11
3016 
3017     @ Optimize for object's size.
3018 
3019       I rearranged functions/variables into three groups in order to reduce
3020       object's filesize. Also, I added kernel config options for reducing more
3021       by excluding unnecessary functionality.
3022 
3023 Fix 2011/11/18
3024 
3025     @ Fix kernel config mapping error.
3026 
3027       Due to a typo in ccs_p2mac definition, mode for CONFIG::file::execute was
3028       by error used when checking "file getattr" permission. Most users will
3029       not be affected by this error because CONFIG::file::execute and
3030       CONFIG::file::getattr are by default configured to use CONFIG::file or
3031       CONFIG settings.
3032 
3033 Fix 2011/12/13
3034 
3035     @ Follow __d_path() behavior change. (Only 2.6.36 and later)
3036 
3037       The behavior of __d_path() has changed in 3.2-rc5. __d_path() now returns
3038       NULL when the pathname cannot be calculated. You must update to this
3039       version when using with 3.2-rc5 and later kernels, or the kernel will
3040       panic because ccs_get_absolute_path() triggers NULL pointer dereference.
3041 
3042       The patch that changed the behavior of __d_path() might be backported to
3043       2.6.36 to 3.1 kernels. You must update to this version if the patch was
3044       backported, or you will experience the kernel panic as with 3.2-rc5.
3045 
3046       The patch that changed the behavior of __d_path() also changed the way of
3047       handling pathnames under lazy-unmounted directory. Until now, TOMOYO was
3048       using incomplete pathnames returned by __d_path() when the pathname is
3049       under lazy-unmounted directory. But from now on, TOMOYO uses different
3050       pathnames returned by ccs_get_local_path() when the pathname is under
3051       lazy-unmounted directory (because __d_path() no longer returns it).
3052 
3053       Since applications unlikely do lazy unmounts, requesting pathnames under
3054       lazy-unmounted directory should not happen unless the administrator
3055       explicitly does lazy unmounts. But pathnames which is defined for such
3056       conditions in the policy file (if any) will need to be rewritten.
3057 
3058 Fix 2012/01/20
3059 
3060     @ Follow changes in 3.3-rc1.

3065 Fix 2012/02/25
3066 
3067     @ Follow changes in linux-next.
3068 
3069       UMH_WAIT_PROC constant (currently 1) is scheduled for renumbering in 3.4.
3070 
3071       Use UMH_WAIT_PROC constant instead of hardcoded constant in preparation
3072       for backporting call_usermodehelper() related changes. If renumbering was
3073       backported, you will start experiencing the kernel panic upon execution
3074       of external policy loader (i.e. /sbin/ccs-init), for the kernel will no
3075       longer wait for completion of external policy loader process.
3076 
3077       Although I changed to use UMH_WAIT_PROC constant, this change could fail
3078       to detect renumbering in 2.6.22 and earlier kernels, for UMH_WAIT_PROC
3079       constant is currently available to only 2.6.23 and later kernels. If you
3080       started to experience the kernel panic, please check whether renumbering
3081       was backported or not.

3084 
3085     @ Fix mount flags checking order.
3086 
3087       Userspace can pass in arbitrary combinations of MS_* flags to mount().
3088 
3089       If both MS_BIND and one of MS_SHARED/MS_PRIVATE/MS_SLAVE/MS_UNBINDABLE
3090       are passed, device name which should be checked for MS_BIND was not
3091       checked because MS_SHARED/MS_PRIVATE/MS_SLAVE/MS_UNBINDABLE had higher
3092       priority than MS_BIND.
3093 
3094       If both one of MS_BIND/MS_MOVE and MS_REMOUNT are passed, device name
3095       which should not be checked for MS_REMOUNT was checked because MS_BIND/
3096       MS_MOVE had higher priority than MS_REMOUNT.
3097 
3098       Fix these bugs by changing priority to MS_REMOUNT -> MS_BIND ->
3099       MS_SHARED/MS_PRIVATE/MS_SLAVE/MS_UNBINDABLE -> MS_MOVE as with do_mount()
3100       does. Also, I changed to unconditionally return -EINVAL if more than one
3101       of MS_SHARED/MS_PRIVATE/MS_SLAVE/MS_UNBINDABLE is passed so that TOMOYO
3102       will not generate inaccurate audit logs, for commit 7a2e8a8f "VFS: Sanity
3103       check mount flags passed to change_mnt_propagation()" clarified that
3104       these flags must be exclusively passed.

3131       Commit 208d8984 "[IPV4]: Fix BUG() in 2.6.x, udp_poll(), fragments +
3132       CONFIG_HIGHMEM" clarified that skb_kill_datagram() should use
3133       spin_lock_bh()/spin_unlock_bh() rather than
3134       spin_lock_irq()/spin_unlock_irq().

3139 
3140       Since RHEL 5.2 and later kernels have backported commit 95766fff
3141       "[UDP]: Add memory accounting." patch, TOMOYO needs to call
3142       lock_sock()/release_sock() around skb_kill_datagram() call when UDP

3156     @ Fix KABI breakage on Ubuntu 12.10.
3157 
3158       I was using include/linux/security.h as the common path for pulling in
3159       include/linux/ccsecurity.h so that I can avoid scattering #include line.
3160 
3161       When scripts/genksyms/genksyms calculates hash values for Module.symvers
3162       file, it uses the extracted form of involved structures if the structure
3163       layout is known but it instead uses UNKNOWN if the structure layout is
3164       not known. Therefore, pulling in include files that define structure's
3165       layout from include/linux/ccsecurity.h causes changes in the hash values
3166       and causes KABI breakage, even if no changes were made to the involved
3167       structures.
3168 
3169       Fix this breakage by avoiding pulling in include/linux/sched.h and
3170       include/linux/dcache.h from include/linux/ccsecurity.h where possible.

3218 
3219     @ Use memory allocation flags used by TOMOYO 2.x.
3220 
3221       Until now, TOMOYO 1.x was using memory allocation flags which are weaker
3222       than TOMOYO 2.x in order to make sure that memory allocation request by
3223       TOMOYO 1.x shall not cause silent livelock problem.
3224 
3225       But as I learn about this livelock problem, I understood that this is
3226       not a problem which TOMOYO can manage. While hitting a silent livelock
3227       at memory allocation is a problem, refusing critical access requests
3228       by critical processes due to memory allocation failure caused by use of
3229       weaker memory allocation flags is also a problem.
3230 
3231       Since situations regarding memory allocation flags in upstream kernels
3232       are changing, it will be safer to use memory allocation flags used by
3233       TOMOYO 2.x.

3263       Commit 5625f2e3266319fd ("TOMOYO: Change pathname for non-rename()able
3264       filesystems.") intended to be applied to filesystems where the content is
3265       not controllable from the userspace (e.g. proc, sysfs, securityfs), based
3266       on an assumption that such filesystems do not support rename() operation.
3267 
3268       But it turned out that read-only filesystems also do not support rename()
3269       operation despite the content is controllable from the userspace, and that
3270       commit is annoying TOMOYO users who want to use e.g. squashfs as the root
3271       filesystem due to use of local name which does not start with '/'.
3272 
3273       Therefore, based on an assumption that filesystems which require the
3274       device argument upon mount() request is an indication that the content
3275       is controllable from the userspace, do not use local name if a filesystem
3276       does not support rename() operation but requires the device argument upon
3277       mount() request.

3284       Since unchecked mount manipulation is not acceptable, for now pretend
3285       as if move_mount(2) is unavailable.
3286 
3287     @ Don't check open/getattr permission on sockets.
3288 
3289       syzbot found that use of SOCKET_I()->sk from open() can result in
3290       use after free problem, for socket's inode is still reachable via
3291       /proc/pid/fd/n despite destruction of SOCKET_I()->sk already completed.
3292 
3293       But there is no point with calling security_file_open() on sockets
3294       because open("/proc/pid/fd/n", !O_PATH) on sockets fails with -ENXIO.
3295 
3296       There is some point with calling security_inode_getattr() on sockets
3297       because stat("/proc/pid/fd/n") and fstat(open("/proc/pid/fd/n", O_PATH))
3298       are valid. But since information which can be protected by checking
3299       security_inode_getattr() on sockets is trivial, let's not check it.

3301 Version 1.8.6   2019/08/20   Bug fix release.
3302 
3303 Fix 2019/12/07
3304 
3305     @ Don't use nifty names on sockets.
3306 
3307       Revert "Don't check open/getattr permission on sockets.", and then
3308       get rid of special handling of sockets. As a side effect of this patch,
3309       "socket:[family=\$:type=\$:protocol=\$]" in the policy files has to be
3310       rewritten to "socket:[\$]".
3311 
3312 Fix 2020/04/09
3313 
3314     @ Fix wrong put_page() usage in ccs_dump_page().
3315 
3316       ccs_dump_page() for 5.6+ was by error using wrong function to put page.
3317 
3318 Fix 2020/05/01
3319 
3320     @ Loosen domainname validation and pathname validation.
3321 
3322       Currently a domainname must start with "<$namespace>" followed by
3323       zero or more repetitions of a pathname which starts with '/'.
3324 
3325       But situation is getting more and more difficult to enforce use of
3326       a pathname which starts with '/', for execve() request of a pathname
3327       on e.g. some filesystems cause ccs_realpath() to return a pathname
3328       in "$fsname:/$pathname" format.
3329 
3330       Fortunately, since $fsname must not contain '.' since Linux 2.6.22,
3331       we can recognize a token which appears '/' before '.' appears (e.g.
3332       proc:/self/exe ) as a pathname and a token which appears '.' before
3333       '/' appears (e.g. exec.realpath="/bin/bash" ) as a condition parameter,
3334       with an exception that a pathname cannot start with
3335       auto_domain_transition=" because it is reserved as a delimiter string
3336       for on-match domain transition. Also, we can recognize "<$namespace>"
3337       followed by such tokens (e.g. <kernel> /foo proc:/self/exe /bar ) as
3338       a domainname.
3339 
3340 Version 1.8.7   2020/05/05   Usability enhancement release.
3341 
3342 Fix 2020/07/22
3343 
3344     @ Fix domain transition preference.
3345 
3346       The domain transition preference which was introduced in 1.8.3 is
3347       by error ignored since 1.8.3p4, for ccs_update_task_domain() from
3348       ccs_write_log2() from ccs_supervisor() from ccs_audit_log() always
3349       resets r->matched_acl to NULL. Change ccs_update_task_domain() not
3350       to reset r->matched_acl to NULL.
3351 
3352 Fix 2020/08/17
3353 
3354     @ Fix ccs_realpath() fallback.
3355 
3356       ccs_realpath() for 3.17+ was by error not calling ccs_get_local_path()
3357       when ccs_get_absolute_path() returned -EINVAL.
3358 
3359 Fix 2020/08/19
3360 
3361     @ Fix wrong ccs_search_binary_handler() mapping.
3362 
3363       When support for 5.8 kernel was added, ccs_search_binary_handler() for
3364       3.7- was by error mapped to wrong function.
3365 
3366 Fix 2020/10/24
3367 
3368     @ Fix /proc pathname calculation for Linux 5.8+ kernels.
3369 
3370       ccs_realpath() for 5.8+ was by error not using proc_pid_ns() when
3371       calculating /proc pathname.
3372 
3373 Version 1.8.8   2020/11/11   Fifteenth anniversary release.
3374 
3375 Fix 2021/03/13
3376 
3377     @ Skip permission checks for fileless execution requests.
3378 
3379       Kernels from 4.18 to 5.8 are using call_usermodehelper_setup_file() for
3380       starting program without a valid pathname on a filesystem.
3381       /sbin/modprobe from dockerd process could not load bpfilter.ko module
3382       because ccs_symlink_path() cannot calculate pathname of program without
3383       a valid pathname. Thus, allow call_usermodehelper_setup_file() to bypass
3384       permission checks and suppress domain transitions.
3385 
3386     @ Fix ccs_kernel_service().
3387 
3388       Kernels from 5.5 to 5.11 are using PF_KTHREAD flag for the io_uring
3389       worker threads.
3390 
3391 Version 1.8.9   2021/04/01   Bug fix release.
3392 
3393 Fix 2021/12/28
3394 
3395     @ Check exceeded quota early.
3396 
3397       Backport commit 04e57a2d952bbd34 ("tomoyo: Check exceeded quota early in
3398       tomoyo_domain_quota_is_ok().") and commit f702e1107601230e ("tomoyo: use
3399       hwight16() in tomoyo_domain_quota_is_ok()"), for these help reducing
3400       overhead of the learning mode. Note that the former patch requires you to
3401       explicitly delete "quota_exceeded" entry from the domain policy in order
3402       to resume the learning mode.
3403 
3404 Fix 2024/03/31
3405 
3406     @ Fix a UAF bug introduced by an oversight in TOMOYO revision 2930.
3407 
3408       Backport commit 2f03fc340cac ("tomoyo: fix UAF write bug in
3409       tomoyo_write_control()").
3410 
3411 Version 1.8.10   2024/04/01   Security bug fix release.
3412 
3413 Fix 2024/06/28
3414 
3415     @ Unblock move_mount() system call.
3416 
3417       Since util-linux 2.39 started using libmount-mountfd-support,
3418       implementing appropriate permission check for move_mount() became
3419       necessary for successfully booting a Linux system.
3420 
3421 Version 1.8.11   2024/07/15   Bug fix release.
