io_uring: enable audit and restrict cred override for IORING_OP_FIXED_FD_INSTALL
We need to correct some aspects of the IORING_OP_FIXED_FD_INSTALL command to take into account the security implications of making an io_uring-private file descriptor generally accessible to a userspace task. The first change in this patch is to enable auditing of the FD_INSTALL operation as installing a file descriptor into a task's file descriptor table is a security relevant operation and something that admins/users may want to audit. The second change is to disable the io_uring credential override functionality, also known as io_uring "personalities", in the FD_INSTALL command. The credential override in FD_INSTALL is particularly problematic as it affects the credentials used in the security_file_receive() LSM hook. If a task were to request a credential override via REQ_F_CREDS on a FD_INSTALL operation, the LSM would incorrectly check to see if the overridden credentials of the io_uring were able to "receive" the file as opposed to the task's credentials. After discussions upstream, it's difficult to imagine a use case where we would want to allow a credential override on a FD_INSTALL operation so we are simply going to block REQ_F_CREDS on IORING_OP_FIXED_FD_INSTALL operations.
