This patch prevents the following oops: [ 10.771813] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000 [...] [ 10.779790] RIP: 0010:ima_match_policy+0xf7/0xb80 [...] [ 10.798576] Call Trace: [ 10.798993] ? ima_lsm_policy_change+0x2b0/0x2b0 [ 10.799753] ? inode_init_owner+0x1a0/0x1a0 [ 10.800484] ? _raw_spin_lock+0x7a/0xd0 [ 10.801592] ima_must_appraise.part.0+0xb6/0xf0 [ 10.802313] ? ima_fix_xattr.isra.0+0xd0/0xd0 [ 10.803167] ima_must_appraise+0x4f/0x70 [ 10.804004] ima_post_path_mknod+0x2e/0x80 [ 10.804800] do_mknodat+0x396/0x3c0 It occurs when there is a failure during IMA initialization, and ima_init_policy() is not called. IMA hooks still call ima_match_policy() but ima_rules is NULL. This patch prevents the crash by directly assigning the ima_default_policy pointer to ima_rules when ima_rules is defined. This wouldn't alter the existing behavior, as ima_rules is always set at the end of ima_init_policy().
