ima: accept previously set IMA_NEW_FILE
commit 1ac202e978e18f045006d75bd549612620c6ec3a upstream. Modifying the attributes of a file makes ima_inode_post_setattr reset the IMA cache flags. So if the file, which has just been created, is opened a second time before the first file descriptor is closed, verification fails since the security.ima xattr has not been written yet. We therefore have to look at the IMA_NEW_FILE even if the file already existed. With this patch there should no longer be an error when cat tries to open testfile: $ rm -f testfile $ ( echo test >&3 ; touch testfile ; cat testfile ) 3>testfile A file being new is no reason to accept that it is missing a digital signature demanded by the policy.
