* TOMOYO: Add environment variable name restriction support.Tetsuo Handa2011-09-141-0/+122
This patch adds support for checking environment variable's names. Although TOMOYO already provides ability to check argv[]/envp[] passed to execve() requests, file execute /bin/sh exec.envp["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]="bar" will reject execution of /bin/sh if environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not defined. To grant execution of /bin/sh if LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not defined, administrators have to specify like file execute /bin/sh exec.envp["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]="/system/lib" file execute /bin/sh exec.envp["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]=NULL . Since there are many environment variables whereas conditional checks are applied as "&&", it is difficult to cover all combinations. Therefore, this patch supports conditional checks that are applied as "||", by specifying like file execute /bin/sh misc env LD_LIBRARY_PATH exec.envp["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]="/system/lib" which means "grant execution of /bin/sh if environment variable is not defined or is defined and its value is /system/lib".
