Subject: [PATCH] NetLabel: Verify sensitivity level has a valid CIPSO mapping
Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2007 15:01:31 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070228200140.491071752@hp.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: netlabel-cipso_std_bug --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1527 bytes --]

The current CIPSO engine has a problem where it does not verify that the given
sensitivity level has a valid CIPSO mapping when the "std" CIPSO DOI type is
used.  The end result is that bad packets are sent on the wire which should
have never been sent in the first place.  This patch corrects this problem by
verifying the sensitivity level mapping similar to what is done with the
category mapping.  This patch also changes the returned error code in this case
to -EPERM to better match what the category mapping verification code returns.
