    kernfs: fix xattr name handling in LSM helpers · 1537ad15
    Ondrej Mosnacek authored
    The implementation of kernfs_security_xattr_*() helpers reuses the
    kernfs_node_xattr_*() functions, which take the suffix of the xattr name
    and extract full xattr name from it using xattr_full_name(). However,
    this function relies on the fact that the suffix passed to xattr
    handlers from VFS is always constructed from the full name by just
    incerementing the pointer. This doesn't necessarily hold for the callers
    of kernfs_security_xattr_*(), so their usage will easily lead to
    out-of-bounds access.
    
    Fix this by moving the xattr name reconstruction to the VFS xattr
    handlers and replacing the kernfs_security_xattr_*() helpers with more
    general kernfs_xattr_*() helpers that take full xattr name and allow
    accessing all kernfs node's xattrs.
