Multiple Concurrent Security Modules? Really?
This talk will cover the ongoing work to update the
Linux Security Module (LSM) infrastructure to allow
multiple concurrent security modules.
The talk starts with a statement of the problem being
solved, that the existing infrastructure allows only
a single LSM (plus Yama) to be active at a time. The
rationale for the current scheme will be discussed as
well as what has changed so that the new scheme is in
the works.
The talk continues with a description of the externally
visible changes and the reasons they've been made.
The peculiar configuration issues with networking will
be covered in some detail. The additions in /proc/.../attr
will be noted.
Next the structure of the stacking mechanism is detailed,
with special attention to the allocation and freeing of
security blobs. The handling of networking hooks and
secids will be examined.
Finally, the current project plan and status will be
described.
