Subject: Fix for CVE-2016-7097 missing from linux-4.1.y
Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2016 16:59:17 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5824FBC5.7060606@akamai.com> (raw)

Hi Jan

You are the author of commit 073931017b49 ("posix_acl: Clear SGID bit 
when setting file permissions") which has been identified to resolve 
CVE-2016-7097, but is missing from linux-4.1.y.

If you believe this commit should be part of linux-4.1.y can you please 
reply with your approval for its inclusion?

Thanks!
Josh

P.S.: This is my first attempt at trying to make sure all known CVE 
fixes are in the stable kernels. After a discussion with Sasha at 
Plumbers I'd like to start doing this on a regular basis. Any feedback 
here is welcome.
