Created: May 31, 2015    Updated: Dec 3, 2018
Resolved Date: Jun 23, 2015
Found In Version: 6.0.0.20
Fix Version: 6.0.0.22
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux 6
Component/s: Kernel

Description

The Btrfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.19 does not ensure that the visible xattr state is consistent with a requested replacement, which allows local users to bypass intended ACL settings and gain privileges via standard filesystem operations (1) during an xattr-replacement time window, related to a race condition, or (2) after an xattr-replacement attempt that fails because the data does not fit.
