Security Advisory
CVE-2026-80913
N/A
UNKNOWN
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: require every boolean value to be defined
p_bools.nprim comes from the policy image independently of how many
booleans follow it, and cond_index_bool() fills bool_val_to_struct[] at
value - 1, so a count larger than the values present leaves NULL entries.
Every user of that array then walks it by index and dereferences each
entry: cond_evaluate_expr() on the access-vector path,
security_get_bools() and security_get_bool_value() behind selinuxfs, and
security_set_bools(). A sparse class value is absorbed by
policydb_class_isvalid() and its siblings; booleans have no such
predicate, and no consumer that could use one.
Reject a boolean value that no boolean defines, once, where the array is
built. Conforming policies define every boolean they declare and are
unaffected.
