The ima_keyrings buffer was used as a work buffer for strsep()-based parsing of the "keyrings=" option of an IMA policy rule. This parsing was re-performed each time an asymmetric key was added to a kernel keyring for each loaded policy rule that contained a "keyrings=" option. An example rule specifying this option is: measure func=KEY_CHECK keyrings=a|b|c The rule says to measure asymmetric keys added to any of the kernel keyrings named "a", "b", or "c". The size of the buffer size was equal to the size of the largest "keyrings=" value seen in a previously loaded rule (5 + 1 for the NUL-terminator in the previous example) and the buffer was pre-allocated at the time of policy load. The pre-allocated buffer approach suffered from a couple bugs: 1) There was no locking around the use of the buffer so concurrent key add operations, to two different keyrings, would result in the strsep() loop of ima_match_keyring() to modify the buffer at the same time. This resulted in unexpected results from ima_match_keyring() and, therefore, could cause unintended keys to be measured or keys to not be measured when IMA policy intended for them to be measured. 2) If the kstrdup() that initialized entry->keyrings in ima_parse_rule() failed, the ima_keyrings buffer was freed and set to NULL even when a valid KEY_CHECK rule was previously loaded. The next KEY_CHECK event would trigger a call to strcpy() with a NULL destination pointer and crash the kernel. Remove the need for a pre-allocated global buffer by parsing the list of keyrings in a KEY_CHECK rule at the time of policy load. The ima_rule_entry will contain an array of string pointers which point to the name of each keyring specified in the rule. No string processing needs to happen at the time of asymmetric key add so iterating through the list and doing a string comparison is all that's required at the time of policy check. In the process of changing how the "keyrings=" policy option is handled, a couple additional bugs were fixed: 1) The rule parser accepted rules containing invalid "keyrings=" values such as "a|b||c", "a|b|", or simply "|". 2) The /sys/kernel/security/ima/policy file did not display the entire "keyrings=" value if the list of keyrings was longer than what could fit in the fixed size tbuf buffer in ima_policy_show().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
