From: Ondrej Mosnacek <omosnace@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 464c258aa45b09f16aa0f05847ed8895873262d9 ] When sid == 0 (we are resetting keycreate_sid to the default value), we should skip the KEY__CREATE check. Before this patch, doing a zero-sized write to /proc/self/keycreate would check if the current task can create unlabeled keys (which would usually fail with -EACCESS and generate an AVC). Now it skips the check and correctly sets the task's keycreate_sid to 0. Bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1719067 Tested using the reproducer from the report above.
