Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2017 17:32:22 +0000 From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com> To: linux-security-module@...r.kernel.org Cc: gnomes@...rguk.ukuu.org.uk, linux-efi@...r.kernel.org, dhowells@...hat.com, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, jforbes@...hat.com Subject: [PATCH 14/30] asus-wmi: Restrict debugfs interface when the kernel is locked down From: Matthew Garrett <matthew.garrett@...ula.com> We have no way of validating what all of the Asus WMI methods do on a given machine - and there's a risk that some will allow hardware state to be manipulated in such a way that arbitrary code can be executed in the kernel, circumventing module loading restrictions. Prevent that if the kernel is locked down.
