commit 982ec302b67f3c7f8df667dadb67352b1e4a6d18 (libsepol/cil: Account for anonymous category sets in an expression) attempted to properly handle anonymous category sets when resolving category expressions. Unfortunately, it did not check whether a category set was actually an anonymous category set and expanded all category sets in an expression. If a category set refers to itself in the expression, then everything from the name of the category set to the end of the expression is ignored. So, for example, the rule "(categoryset cs (c0 cs c1 c2))", would be equivalent to the rule "(categoryset cs (c0))" as everything from "cs" to the end would be dropped. The secilc-fuzzer found that the rule "(categoryset cat (not cat))" would cause a segfault since "(not)" is not a valid expression and it is assumed to be valid during later evaluation because syntax checking has already been done. Instead, check whether or not the category set is anonymous before expanding it when resolving an expression.
