| From | Dongsu Park <> | Subject | [PATCH 05/11] fs: Allow superblock owner to access do_remount_sb() | Date | Fri, 22 Dec 2017 15:32:29 +0100 |
| |
From: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com>
Superblock level remounts are currently restricted to global CAP_SYS_ADMIN, as is the path for changing the root mount to read only on umount. Loosen both of these permission checks to also allow CAP_SYS_ADMIN in any namespace which is privileged towards the userns which originally mounted the filesystem.
Patch v4 is available: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8944631/
