d8c6e85432944 ("msg/security: Pass kern_ipc_perm not msg_queue into the msg_queue security hooks")

appears to have introduced a bug into selinux_msg_queue_msgsnd and selinux_msg_queue_msgrcv


specifically the portion of the patch that does

-       isec = msq->q_perm.security;
+       isec = msq->security;

which leaves the code
	isec = msq->security;
	msec = msg->security;

however isec and msec are different size structures. specifically isec is an ipc_security_struct and msec is a msg_security_struct. Which are defined as

struct msg_security_struct {
	u32 sid;	/* SID of message */
};

struct ipc_security_struct {
	u16 sclass;	/* security class of this object */
	u32 sid;	/* SID of IPC resource */
};

where the msg->security field is allocated as an ipc_security_struct. Access the msec->sid would thus appear to overlay the isec->sclass.
