Descriptions

The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x provides an incomplete set of requirements for setattr operations that underspecifies removing extended privilege attributes, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (capability stripping) via a failed invocation of a system call, as demonstrated by using chown to remove a capability from the ping or Wireshark dumpcap program.

El subsistema VFS en el kernel de Linux 3.x provee un conjunto incompleto de requerimientos para operaciones setattr que subespecifica eliminando atributos de extensión de privilegios, lo que permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (desprovisión de capacidad) a través de una invocación fallida of a system call, según lo demostrado usando chown para eliminar una capacidad una capacidad de ping o del programa dumpcap de Wireshark.
