If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3754e5dc4a4dfc567d1ec6199ce978ec2e3646c4 Author: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Nov 25 10:46:51 2019 +0900 tomoyo: Don't use nifty names on sockets. [ Upstream commit 6f7c41374b62fd80bbd8aae3536c43688c54d95e ] syzbot is reporting that use of SOCKET_I()->sk from open() can result in use after free problem [1], for socket's inode is still reachable via /proc/pid/fd/n despite destruction of SOCKET_I()->sk already completed. At first I thought that this race condition applies to only open/getattr permission checks. But James Morris has pointed out that there are more permission checks where this race condition applies to. Thus, get rid of tomoyo_get_socket_name() instead of conditionally bypassing permission checks on sockets. As a side effect of this patch, "socket:[family=\$:type=\$:protocol=\$]" in the policy files has to be rewritten to "socket:[\$]".
