Subject[PATCH 1/2] VM/SELinux: require CAP_SYS_RAWIO for all mmap_zero operations
Date
Currently non-SELinux systems need CAP_SYS_RAWIO for an application to mmap
the 0 page. On SELinux systems they need a specific SELinux permission,
but do not need CAP_SYS_RAWIO. This has proved to be a poor decision by
the SELinux team as, by default, SELinux users are logged in unconfined and
thus a malicious non-root has nothing stopping them from mapping the 0 page
of virtual memory.

On a non-SELinux system, a malicious non-root user is unable to do this, as
they need CAP_SYS_RAWIO.

This patch checks CAP_SYS_RAWIO for all operations which attemt to map a
page below mmap_min_addr.
