landlock: Fix wrong type usage

2026-01-23T10:21:22+00:00

[ Upstream commit 29fbfa46e4287c596bdc77e2c599e3a1bbf8bb67 ] I think, based on my best understanding, that this type is likely a typo (even though in the end both are u16) Signed-off-by: Tingmao Wang Fixes: 2fc80c69df82 ("landlock: Log file-related denials") Reviewed-by: Günther Noack Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/7339ad7b47f998affd84ca629a334a71f913616d.1765040503.git.m@maowtm.org Signed-off-by: Mickaël Salaün Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

landlock: Fix TCP handling of short AF_UNSPEC addresses

2026-01-23T10:21:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit e4d82cbce2258f454634307fdabf33aa46b61ab0 ] current_check_access_socket() treats AF_UNSPEC addresses as AF_INET ones, and only later adds special case handling to allow connect(AF_UNSPEC), and on IPv4 sockets bind(AF_UNSPEC+INADDR_ANY). This would be fine except AF_UNSPEC addresses can be as short as a bare AF_UNSPEC sa_family_t field, and nothing more. The AF_INET code path incorrectly enforces a length of sizeof(struct sockaddr_in) instead. Move AF_UNSPEC edge case handling up inside the switch-case, before the address is (potentially incorrectly) treated as AF_INET.

landlock: Fix handling of disconnected directories

2025-12-18T13:03:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit 49c9e09d961025b22e61ef9ad56aa1c21b6ce2f1 ] Disconnected files or directories can appear when they are visible and opened from a bind mount, but have been renamed or moved from the source of the bind mount in a way that makes them inaccessible from the mount point (i.e. out of scope). Previously, access rights tied to files or directories opened through a disconnected directory were collected by walking the related hierarchy down to the root of the filesystem, without taking into account the mount point because it couldn't be found. This could lead to inconsistent access results, potential access right widening, and hard-to-debug renames, especially since such paths cannot be printed. For a sandboxed task to create a disconnected directory, it needs to have write access (i.e. FS_MAKE_REG, FS_REMOVE_FILE, and FS_REFER) to the underlying source of the bind mount, and read access to the related mount point. Because a sandboxed task cannot acquire more access rights than those defined by its Landlock domain, this could lead to inconsistent access rights due to missing permissions that should be inherited from the mount point hierarchy, while inheriting permissions from the filesystem hierarchy hidden by this mount point instead. Landlock now handles files and directories opened from disconnected directories by taking into account the filesystem hierarchy when the mount point is not found in the hierarchy walk, and also always taking into account the mount point from which these disconnected directories were opened. This ensures that a rename is not allowed if it would widen access rights [1]. The rationale is that, even if disconnected hierarchies might not be visible or accessible to a sandboxed task, relying on the collected access rights from them improves the guarantee that access rights will not be widened during a rename because of the access right comparison between the source and the destination (see LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER). It may look like this would grant more access on disconnected files and directories, but the security policies are always enforced for all the evaluated hierarchies. This new behavior should be less surprising to users and safer from an access control perspective. Remove a wrong WARN_ON_ONCE() canary in collect_domain_accesses() and fix the related comment. Because opened files have their access rights stored in the related file security properties, there is no impact for disconnected or unlinked files.

landlock: fix splats from iput() after it started calling might_sleep()

2025-11-12T09:47:42+00:00

At this point it is guaranteed this is not the last reference. However, a recent addition of might_sleep() at top of iput() started generating false-positives as it was executing for all values. Remedy the problem by using the newly introduced iput_not_last().

Instead of doing direct access to ->i_count, add a helper to handle this. This will make it easier to convert i_count to a refcount later.

landlock: Fix warning from KUnit tests

get_id_range() expects a positive value as first argument but get_random_u8() can return 0. Fix this by clamping it. Validated by running the test in a for loop for 1000 times. Note that MAX() is wrong as it is only supposed to be used for constants, but max() is good here.
