Subject: [PATCH 09/12] netfilter: xt_osf: Add missing permission checks
Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2017 19:45:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171213184520.8193-10-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171213184520.8193-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
From: Kevin Cernekee <cernekee@chromium.org>
The capability check in nfnetlink_rcv() verifies that the caller
has CAP_NET_ADMIN in the namespace that "owns" the netlink socket.
However, xt_osf_fingers is shared by all net namespaces on the
system. An unprivileged user can create user and net namespaces
in which he holds CAP_NET_ADMIN to bypass the netlink_net_capable()
check:
vpnns -- nfnl_osf -f /tmp/pf.os
vpnns -- nfnl_osf -f /tmp/pf.os -d
These non-root operations successfully modify the systemwide OS
fingerprint list. Add new capable() checks so that they can't.
