From 8d9c8c3980a85d79db13c5ce4bb118fef32d4f50 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2014 12:32:47 -0700 Subject: fs: Add a missing permission check to do_umount commit a1480dcc3c706e309a88884723446f2e84fedd5b upstream. Accessing do_remount_sb should require global CAP_SYS_ADMIN, but only one of the two call sites was appropriately protected. Fixes CVE-2014-7975.
