[PATCH 4.15 05/45] selinux: skip bounded transition processing if the policy isnt loaded

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Feb 23 2018 - 14:05:24 EST


4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paul Moore <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4b14752ec4e0d87126e636384cf37c8dd9df157c upstream.

We can't do anything reasonable in security_bounded_transition() if we
don't have a policy loaded, and in fact we could run into problems
with some of the code inside expecting a policy. Fix these problems
like we do many others in security/selinux/ss/services.c by checking
to see if the policy is loaded (ss_initialized) and returning quickly
if it isn't.
