"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nxfs: fix capability check in xfs\n\nAn user reported a bug where he managed to evade group's quota\nby changing a file's gid to a different group id the same user\nbelonged to, even though quotas were enforced on both gids and the\nfile's size was big enough to exceed the quota's hardlimit.\n\nCommit eba0549bc7d1 replaced a capable() call by a\nhas_capability_noaudit() to prevent unnecessary selinux audit messages.\nTurns out that both calls have slightly different semantics even though\ntheir documentation seems similar. Where in a nutshell:\n\ncapable() - Tests the task's effective credentials\nhas_ns_capability_noaudit() - Tests the task's real credentials\n\nThis most of the time has no practical difference but in some cases like\nchanging attrs (specifically group id in this case) through a NFS client\nthis will allow the quota code to use XFS_QMOPT_FORCE_RES, effectively\nbypassing quota accounting checks.\n\nUsing instead ns_capable_noaudit() should fix this issue and prevent\nselinux audit messages.\n\nThis also fix the remaining calls to has_capability_noaudit()"

"value": "AV:N - An NFSv4 COMPOUND/SETATTR request carries FATTR4_OWNER_GROUP; nfsd4_decode_setattr() sets ATTR_GID, and nfsd4_setattr()->nfsd_setattr()->notify_change()->xfs_vn_setattr() reaches the patched xfs_setattr_nonsize(). NFS is routable, so the vector is Network.\nAC:L - The attacker controls the deterministic sequence: AUTH_SYS credentials assert both groups, NFS WRITE fills the source group's quota, and SETATTR moves each file to the over-limit destination group. No race or external state transition is required.\nPR:N - svcauth_unix_accept() accepts the uid, gid, and supplementary groups asserted in an AUTH_SYS RPC without account verification, and nfsd_setuser() installs them as subjective credentials. chgrp_ok() then requires only the asserted owner identity and destination-group membership.\nUI:N - The remote client creates and fills the file and sends the SETATTR group change itself; neither nfsd_setattr() nor xfs_setattr_nonsize() requires a separate victim action.\nS:U - xfs_trans_dqresv() skips a quota check and xfs_qm_vop_chown() updates dquots within the same host XFS security authority; no VM, sandbox, or other security boundary is crossed.\nC:N - XFS_QMOPT_FORCE_RES only bypasses the limit branch in xfs_trans_dqresv(), after which quota counters and inode ownership are updated; the path performs no out-of-bounds read or disclosure of kernel or other-file data.\nI:L - With XFS_QMOPT_FORCE_RES set, xfs_trans_dqresv() omits the hard-limit test and xfs_qm_vop_chown() charges blocks and inodes to an already over-limit group. This defeats quota policy and modifies resource accounting, but provides no arbitrary write or control over other users' file contents.\nA:H - xfs_qm_vop_chown() debits the source dquot and, after forced reservation, credits the already over-limit destination; repeating NFS writes and group changes can consume the entire XFS volume. Full-volume exhaustion denies allocations to all users and services on that filesystem."
