This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled IMA: block writes of the security.ima xattr with unsupported algorithms to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ima-block-writes-of-the-security.ima-xattr-with-unsu.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 8e29604ceaa2b06fba44ab98f16249bd286f25c0 Author: THOBY Simon <Simon.THOBY@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Aug 16 08:10:59 2021 +0000 IMA: block writes of the security.ima xattr with unsupported algorithms [ Upstream commit 50f742dd91474e7f4954bf88d094eede59783883 ] By default, writes to the extended attributes security.ima will be allowed even if the hash algorithm used for the xattr is not compiled in the kernel (which does not make sense because the kernel would not be able to appraise that file as it lacks support for validating the hash). Prevent and audit writes to the security.ima xattr if the hash algorithm used in the new value is not available in the current kernel.
