selinux: Implement userns_create hook
Unprivileged user namespace creation is an intended feature to enable sandboxing, however this feature is often used to as an initial step to perform a privilege escalation attack. This patch implements a new user_namespace { create } access control permission to restrict which domains allow or deny user namespace creation. This is necessary for system administrators to quickly protect their systems while waiting for vulnerability patches to be applied. This permission can be used in the following way: allow domA_t domA_t : user_namespace { create }; Signed-off-by: Frederick Lawler <fred@cloudflare.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com>
