[PATCH 4.9 096/310] selinux: do not check open permission on sockets

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Stephen Smalley <sds@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit ccb544781d34afdb73a9a73ae53035d824d193bf ]

open permission is currently only defined for files in the kernel
(COMMON_FILE_PERMS rather than COMMON_FILE_SOCK_PERMS). Construction of
an artificial test case that tries to open a socket via /proc/pid/fd will
generate a recvfrom avc denial because recvfrom and open happen to map to
the same permission bit in socket vs file classes.

open of a socket via /proc/pid/fd is not supported by the kernel regardless
and will ultimately return ENXIO. But we hit the permission check first and
can thus produce these odd/misleading denials.  Omit the open check when
operating on a socket.
