If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Kevin Cernekee commit 916a27901de01446bcf57ecca4783f6cff493309 upstream. 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.
