[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 20/25] ovl: Always reevaluate the file signature for IMA
From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sun Aug 13 2023 - 12:13:09 EST

[ Upstream commit 18b44bc5a67275641fb26f2c54ba7eef80ac5950 ]
Commit db1d1e8b9867 ("IMA: use vfs_getattr_nosec to get the i_version")
partially closed an IMA integrity issue when directly modifying a file
on the lower filesystem. If the overlay file is first opened by a user
and later the lower backing file is modified by root, but the extended
attribute is NOT updated, the signature validation succeeds with the old
original signature.
Update the super_block s_iflags to SB_I_IMA_UNVERIFIABLE_SIGNATURE to
force signature reevaluation on every file access until a fine grained
solution can be found.
