Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
landlock: Fix LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF inheritance across fork()<br />
<br />
hook_cred_transfer() only copies the Landlock security blob when the<br />
source credential has a domain. This is inconsistent with<br />
landlock_restrict_self() which can set LOG_SUBDOMAINS_OFF on a<br />
credential without creating a domain (via the ruleset_fd=-1 path): the<br />
field is committed but not preserved across fork() because the child&#39;s<br />
prepare_creds() calls hook_cred_transfer() which skips the copy when<br />
domain is NULL.<br />
<br />
This breaks the documented use case where a process mutes subdomain logs<br />
before forking sandboxed children: the children lose the muting and<br />
their domains produce unexpected audit records.<br />
<br />
Fix this by unconditionally copying the Landlock credential blob.
