Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Smack module. A local user with privileges to modify Smack's Domain of Interpretation (DOI) values could cause a denial of service. By writing a previously used DOI value to /smack/doi, networking for non-ambient labels becomes disabled. This prevents network communication for processes operating under specific security contexts, leading to a denial of service for affected applications.
