[PATCH 5.4 068/111] apparmor: Fix aa_label refcnt leak in policy_update
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

commit c6b39f070722ea9963ffe756bfe94e89218c5e63 upstream.
policy_update() invokes begin_current_label_crit_section(), which
returns a reference of the updated aa_label object to "label" with
increased refcount.
When policy_update() returns, "label" becomes invalid, so the refcount
should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.
The reference counting issue happens in one exception handling path of
policy_update(). When aa_may_manage_policy() returns not NULL, the
refcnt increased by begin_current_label_crit_section() is not decreased,
causing a refcnt leak.
Fix this issue by jumping to "end_section" label when
aa_may_manage_policy() returns not NULL.
Fixes: 5ac8c355ae00 ("apparmor: allow introspecting the loaded policy pre internal transform")
