Subject: [PATCH] smackfs: Prevent underflow in smk_set_cipso()
Date: Thu, 6 Jul 2023 08:52:39 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5070f3eb-55e2-44db-a97d-41f9b9878c6d@moroto.mountain> (raw)

There is a upper bound to "catlen" but no lower bound to prevent
negatives.  I don't see that this necessarily causes a problem but we
may as well be safe.

Fixes: e114e473771c ("Smack: Simplified Mandatory Access Control Kernel")
