Subject: [PATCH 3.12 60/78] userns: Don't allow unprivileged creation of gid mappings
From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@...ssion.com>
3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit be7c6dba2332cef0677fbabb606e279ae76652c3 upstream.
As any gid mapping will allow and must allow for backwards
compatibility dropping groups don't allow any gid mappings to be
established without CAP_SETGID in the parent user namespace.
For a small class of applications this change breaks userspace
and removes useful functionality. This small class of applications
includes tools/testing/selftests/mount/unprivilged-remount-test.c
Most of the removed functionality will be added back with the addition
of a one way knob to disable setgroups. Once setgroups is disabled
setting the gid_map becomes as safe as setting the uid_map.
For more common applications that set the uid_map and the gid_map
with privilege this change will have no affect.
This is part of a fix for CVE-2014-8989.
