SCP7-864 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2018-13405

Created: Jul 15, 2018    Updated: Oct 26, 2018
Resolved Date: Aug 14, 2018
Found In Version: 7.0.0.28
Fix Version: 7.0.0.29
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux 7
Component/s: Kernel

Description

The inode_init_owner function in fs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.4 allows local users to create files with an unintended group ownership, in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of that group. Here, the non-member can trigger creation of a plain file whose group ownership is that group. The intended behavior was that the non-member can trigger creation of a directory (but not a plain file) whose group ownership is that group.
