## Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  smack: /smack/doi: accept previously used values  Writing to /smack/doi a value that has ever been written there in the past disables networking for non-ambient labels. E.g.      # cat /smack/doi     3     # netlabelctl -p cipso list     Configured CIPSO mappings (1)      DOI value : 3        mapping type : PASS_THROUGH     # netlabelctl -p map list     Configured NetLabel domain mappings (3)      domain: "_" (IPv4)        protocol: UNLABELED      domain: DEFAULT (IPv4)        protocol: CIPSO, DOI = 3      domain: DEFAULT (IPv6)        protocol: UNLABELED      # cat /smack/ambient     _     # cat /proc/$$/attr/smack/current     _     # ping -c1 10.1.95.12     64 bytes from 10.1.95.12: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.964 ms     # echo foo >/proc/$$/attr/smack/current     # ping -c1 10.1.95.12     64 bytes from 10.1.95.12: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.956 ms     unknown option 86      # echo 4 >/smack/doi     # echo 3 >/smack/doi !>  [  214.050395] smk_cipso_doi:691 cipso add rc = -17     # echo 3 >/smack/doi !>  [  249.402261] smk_cipso_doi:678 remove rc = -2 !>  [  249.402261] smk_cipso_doi:691 cipso add rc = -17      # ping -c1 10.1.95.12 !!> ping: 10.1.95.12: Address family for hostname not supported      # echo _ >/proc/$$/attr/smack/current     # ping -c1 10.1.95.12     64 bytes from 10.1.95.12: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.617 ms  This happens because Smack keeps decommissioned DOIs, fails to re-add them, and consequently refuses to add the “default” domain map:      # netlabelctl -p cipso list     Configured CIPSO mappings (2)      DOI value : 3        mapping type : PASS_THROUGH      DOI value : 4        mapping type : PASS_THROUGH     # netlabelctl -p map list     Configured NetLabel domain mappings (2)      domain: "_" (IPv4)        protocol: UNLABELED !>  (no ipv4 map for default domain here)      domain: DEFAULT (IPv6)        protocol: UNLABELED  Fix by clearing decommissioned DOI definitions and serializing concurrent DOI updates with a new lock.  Also: - allow /smack/doi to live unconfigured, since   adding a map (netlbl_cfg_cipsov4_map_add) may fail.   CIPSO_V4_DOI_UNKNOWN(0) indicates the unconfigured DOI - add new DOI before removing the old default map,   so the old map remains if the add fails  (2008-02-04, Casey Schaufler)
