Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ima: limit both open-writers and ToMToU violations
Date: Wed, 19 Feb 2025 11:21:29 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250219162131.416719-1-zohar@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

Each time a file in policy, that is already opened for write, is opened
for read an open-writers integrity violation audit message is emitted
and a violation record is added to the IMA measurement list, even if an
open-writers violation has already been recorded.

Similalry each time a file in policy, that is already opened for read,
is opened for write a Time-of-Measure-Time-of-Use (ToMToU) integrity
violation audit message is emitted and a violation record is added to
the IMA measurement list, even if a ToMToU violation has already been
recorded.

Minimize the violations in the audit log and the IMA measurement list.


Mimi Zohar (2):
  ima: limit the number of open-writers integrity violations
  ima: limit the number of ToMToU integrity violations
