Summary
Moderate: libsepol security update
Details

The libsepol library provides an API for the manipulation of SELinux binary policies. It is used by checkpolicy (the policy compiler) and similar tools, as well as by programs like load_policy that need to perform specific transformations on binary policies (for example, customizing policy boolean settings).

Security Fix(es):

  • libsepol: use-after-free in __cil_verify_classperms() (CVE-2021-36084)

  • libsepol: use-after-free in __cil_verify_classperms() (CVE-2021-36085)

  • libsepol: use-after-free in cil_reset_classpermission() (CVE-2021-36086)

  • libsepol: heap-based buffer overflow in ebitmap_match_any() (CVE-2021-36087)
