From cd4a40174b71acd021877341684d8bb1dc8ea4ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2015 14:28:26 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] mnt: Fail collect_mounts when applied to unmounted mounts The only users of collect_mounts are in audit_tree.c In audit_trim_trees and audit_add_tree_rule the path passed into collect_mounts is generated from kern_path passed an audit_tree pathname which is guaranteed to be an absolute path. In those cases collect_mounts is obviously intended to work on mounted paths and if a race results in paths that are unmounted when collect_mounts it is reasonable to fail early. The paths passed into audit_tag_tree don't have the absolute path check. But are used to play with fsnotify and otherwise interact with the audit_trees, so again operating only on mounted paths appears reasonable. Avoid having to worry about what happens when we try and audit unmounted filesystems by restricting collect_mounts to mounts that appear in the mount tree. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
