Subject: [PATCH] fs: clear file privilege bits when mmap writing

Normally, when a user can modify a file that has setuid or setgid bits,
those bits are cleared when they are not the file owner or a member
of the group. This is enforced when using write and truncate but not
when writing to a shared mmap on the file. This could allow the file
writer to gain privileges by changing a binary without losing the
setuid/setgid/caps bits.

Changing the bits requires holding inode->i_mutex, so it cannot be done
during the page fault (due to mmap_sem being held during the fault).
Instead, clear the bits if PROT_WRITE is being used at mmap open time.
But we can't do the check in the right place inside mmap, so we have to
do it before holding mmap_sem, which means duplicating some checks, which
have to be available to the non-MMU builds too.

Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>

This just keeps getting uglier. :(

v3:
- move outside of mmap_sem for real now, fengguang
- check return code of file_remove_privs, akpm
v2:
- move to mmap from fault handler, jack
