Created: May 31, 2015    Updated: Sep 8, 2018
Resolved Date: Jul 10, 2015
Previous ID: LIN5-20495
Found In Version: 7.0.0.5
Fix Version: 7.0.0.8
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux 7
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.
