Subject: AUDIT: Avoid log pollution by untrusted strings.
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=83c7d09173fdb6b06b109e65895392db3e49ac9c;p=linux-beck.git

AUDIT: Avoid log pollution by untrusted strings.

We log strings from userspace, such as arguments to open(). These could
be formatted to contain \n followed by fake audit log entries. Provide
a function for logging such strings, which gives a hex dump when the
string contains anything but basic printable ASCII characters. Use it
for logging filenames.
