[added to the 4.1 stable tree] KEYS: prevent keys from being removed from specified keyrings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Mimi Zohar <zohar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit d3600bcf9d64d88dc1d189a754dcfab960ce751f ]

Userspace should not be allowed to remove keys from certain keyrings
(eg. blacklist), though the keys themselves can expire.

This patch defines a new key flag named KEY_FLAG_KEEP to prevent
userspace from being able to unlink, revoke, invalidate or timed
out a key on a keyring.  When this flag is set on the keyring, all
keys subsequently added are flagged.

In addition, when this flag is set, the keyring itself can not be
cleared.
