We are currently using 3.10.58 kernel and  we are facing this issue for samck enabled system.
and as we can check in other APIs like netlbl_sock_getattr and netlbl_conn_setattr have this preventive check so we added this check for netlbl_sock_delattr also.

And regarding patch re-submission, actually we have run checkpatch.pl before submission(successfull)  But when we submit the patch our editor changes tabs into space, we will resubmitt the patch ASAP.

This looks like a problem that was fixed some time ago.
The current Smack code clearly checks for this. What kernel
version are you testing against?

Further review shows that the Smack code in 3.10.72 (I don't believe it changed
after 3.10.58) already checks for the address family being AF_INET. This would indicate
that the netlink code is sending garbage to security_socket_sendmsg().

Can you provide a more specific test case? I would like to see if this problem is
present in newer kernels.

We have run trinity tool on smack enable system. like below:-

#./trinity -c sendto --dangerous
After some time we are able to crash the kernel:-

[<c04c8084>] (cipso_v4_sock_delattr+0x0/0x74) from [<c0517c44>] (netlbl_sock_delattr+0x18/0x1c)

[<c0517c2c>] (netlbl_sock_delattr+0x0/0x1c) from [<c027b3e0>] (smack_netlabel+0x88/0x9c)
[<c027b358>] (smack_netlabel+0x0/0x9c) from [<c027b520>] (smack_netlabel_send+0x12c/0x144)
 r7:d9cee3c0 r6:d7b01ef4 r5:c076f408 r4:d88c84c0
[<c027b3f4>] (smack_netlabel_send+0x0/0x144) from [<c027b58c>] (smack_socket_sendmsg+0x54/0x60)
[<c027b538>] (smack_socket_sendmsg+0x0/0x60) from [<c0278ad0>] (security_socket_sendmsg+0x28/0x2c)
[<c0278aa8>] (security_socket_sendmsg+0x0/0x2c) from [<c0434490>] (sock_sendmsg+0x68/0xc0)
[<c0434428>] (sock_sendmsg+0x0/0xc0) from [<c0436ac8>] (SyS_sendto+0xd8/0x110)
 r7:01400118 r6:0000007f r5:da308a00 r4:c076f408
[<c04369f0>] (SyS_sendto+0x0/0x110) from [<c0012280>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x48)
Code: e5903200 e1a04000 e3530000 089da818 (e5d33016)
[SELP] while loop ... please attach T32...

And after further debugging we find this crash always come with Netlink socket.
And except thi API "netlbl_sock_delattr"  all other related Netlabel APIs have check to validate socket family.
Thats why we added socket family check for this API "netlbl_sock_delattr" and resolves our issue.

Thanks
