Descriptions

The aio_mount function in fs/aio.c in the Linux kernel before 4.7.7 does not properly restrict execute access, which makes it easier for local users to bypass intended SELinux W^X policy restrictions, and consequently gain privileges, via an io_setup system call.

La función aio_mount en fs/aio.c en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.7.7 no restringe adecuadamente el acceso de ejecución, lo que facilita a usuarios locales eludir restricciones de política destinadas SELinux W^X, y consecuentemente obtener privilegios, a través de una llamada de sistema io_setup.
