Message-Id: <1393272676-3188-1-git-send-email-mike.pecovnik@gmail.com> Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2014 21:11:16 +0100 From: Mike Pecovnik <mike.pecovnik@...il.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: Mike Pecovnik <mike.pecovnik@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH net] net: Fix permission check in netlink_connect() netlink_sendmsg() was changed to prevent non-root processes from sending messages with dst_pid != 0. netlink_connect() however still only checks if nladdr->nl_groups is set. This patch modifies netlink_connect() to check for the same condition.
