[ Upstream commit 854277e2cc ]
Use sk_is_tcp() to check if socket is TCP in bind(2) and connect(2)
hooks.
SMC, MPTCP, SCTP protocols are currently restricted by TCP access
rights. The purpose of TCP access rights is to provide control over
ports that can be used by userland to establish a TCP connection.
Therefore, it is incorrect to deny bind(2) and connect(2) requests for a
socket of another protocol.
However, SMC, MPTCP and RDS implementations use TCP internal sockets to
establish communication or even to exchange packets over a TCP
connection [1]. Landlock rules that configure bind(2) and connect(2)
usage for TCP sockets should not cover requests for sockets of such
protocols. These protocols have different set of security issues and
security properties, therefore, it is necessary to provide the userland
with the ability to distinguish between them (eg. [2]).
Control over TCP connection used by other protocols can be achieved with
upcoming support of socket creation control [3].
