This seems to be out of bound read for "scontext" at
for (i = 1; i < SECINITSID_NUM; i++) {
if (!strcmp(initial_sid_to_string[i], scontext)) {
*sid = i;
return 0;
}
}
because "initial_sid_to_string[i]" is "const char *".

If "value" does not terminate with '\0' or '\n', "value" and
"size" are as-is passed to "scontext" and "scontext_len" above
/* Obtain a SID for the context, if one was specified. */
if (size && str[0] && str[0] != '\n') {
if (str[size-1] == '\n') {
str[size-1] = 0;
size--;
}
error = security_context_to_sid(value, size, &sid, GFP_KERNEL);
which will allow strcmp() to trigger out of bound read when "size" is
larger than strlen(initial_sid_to_string[i]).
Thus, I guess the simplest fix is to use strncmp() instead of strcmp().
