I considered that approach, but having the LSM modifying the skb like that without the networking code's knowledge did seem like a layering violation, and fragile. It's also different than how LSM hooks typically operate - generally they return decisions and the calling code is responsible for taking appropriate action. I'm currently only interested in the MAC, but this approach can be extended to other fields. The selinux patch just splits up the read permission into two levels, privileged and unprivileged which is consistent with how netlink audit sockets are handled. > > > > > [1] https://adamdrake.com/mac-addresses-udids-and-privacy.html > > [2] Other access vectors like ioctl(SIOCGIFHWADDR) are already covered > > by existing LSM hooks. > > > > Signed-off-by: Jeff Vander Stoep <jeffv@xxxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > include/linux/lsm_hooks.h | 8 ++++++++ > > include/linux/security.h | 6 ++++++ > > net/core/rtnetlink.c | 12 ++++++++++-- > > security/security.c | 5 +++++ > > 4 files changed, 29 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/include/linux/lsm_hooks.h b/include/linux/lsm_hooks.h > > index df1318d85f7d..dfcb2e11ff43 100644 > > --- a/include/linux/lsm_hooks.h > > +++ b/include/linux/lsm_hooks.h > > @@ -728,6 +728,12 @@ > > * > > * Security hooks for Netlink messaging. > > * > > + * @netlink_receive > > + * Check permissions on a netlink message field before populating it. > > + * @sk associated sock of task receiving the message. > > + * @skb contains the sk_buff structure for the netlink message. > > + * Return 0 if the data should be included in the message. > > + * > > * @netlink_send: > > * Save security information for a netlink message so that permission > > * checking can be performed when the message is processed.
