Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
geneve: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink<br />
<br />
A tunnel changelink() operates on at most two netns, dev_net(dev) and<br />
the sticky underlay netns geneve->net. They differ once the device is<br />
created in or moved to a netns other than the one the request runs in.<br />
The rtnl changelink path checks CAP_NET_ADMIN only against dev_net(dev),<br />
so a caller privileged there but not in geneve->net can rewrite a geneve<br />
device whose underlay lives in geneve->net.<br />
<br />
geneve_changelink() applies the new configuration against geneve->net:<br />
geneve_link_config() and the geneve_quiesce()/geneve_unquiesce() pair<br />
reopen the underlay sockets in that netns (geneve_sock_add() uses<br />
geneve->net), so the same reasoning as the tunnel changelink series<br />
applies here.<br />
<br />
Gate geneve_changelink() with rtnl_dev_link_net_capable(), at the top of<br />
the op before any attribute is parsed, matching ipgre_changelink() and<br />
the rest of the "require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for<br />
changelink" series.<br />
