Descriptions

The xfs_swapext function in fs/xfs/xfs_dfrag.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 does not properly check the file descriptors passed to the SWAPEXT ioctl, which allows local users to leverage write access and obtain read access by swapping one file into another file.

La función xfs_swapext en fs/xfs/xfs_dfrag.c en el kernel de Linux kernel anterior v2.6.35 no chequea adecuadamente los descriptores de archivo en SWAPEXT ioctl, lo que permiete a usuarios locales aprovechar el acceso de escritura y obtener acceso de lectura por intercambio de un fichero en otro fichero.
