GHSA-vv6c-69r6-chg9

Go-Landlock in best-effort mode did not restrict TCP bind and connect operations correctly

Quick fix

GHSA-vv6c-69r6-chg9 — github.com/landlock-lsm/go-landlock: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

go get github.com/landlock-lsm/go-landlock@v0.0.0-20241013234402-fb3ad845df46

Details

### Impact When using the recommended "best-effort" mode, Go-Landlock did not restrict the TCP bind() and connect() operations any more when they were requested. This affects Go-Landlock users to whom both of the following conditions apply:

* They use Landlock rulesets that are supposed to restrict networking (through `landlock.V4`, `landlock.V5`, or self-configured). * These Landlock rulesets are used in best-effort mode.

Typically, affected code uses the Go-Landlock API like this (the crucial part being the combination of `V4`/`V5` and `.BestEffort()`):

``` err := landlock.V5.BestEffort().Restrict(...) ```

* This is a bug in the Go-Landlock library and does not affect programs that use Landlock via C or other language bindings. * The bug only affects networking restrictions. File system restrictions continue to work as expected.

### Patches Patched in: https://github.com/landlock-lsm/go-landlock/commit/fb3ad845df462d013f9c8a965c496617c6a5778b Users should upgrade to: v0.0.0-20241013234402-fb3ad845df46
