[PATCH 1/2] apparmor: Check buffer bounds when mapping permissions mask

Tyler Hicks tyhicks at canonical.com
Fri Jul 6 05:25:00 UTC 2018


Don't read past the end of the buffer containing permissions
characters or write past the end of the destination string.

Detected by CoverityScan CID#1415361, 1415376 ("Out-of-bounds access")

Fixes: e53cfe6c7caa ("apparmor: rework perm mapping to a slightly broader set")
