Descriptions

Before correction, the copy_file_range system call checked only for the CAP_READ and CAP_WRITE capabilities on the input and output file descriptors, respectively. Using an offset is logically equivalent to seeking, and the system call must additionally require the CAP_SEEK capability.

This incorrect privilege check enabled sandboxed processes with only read or write but no seek capability on a file descriptor to read data from or write data to an arbitrary location within the file corresponding to that file descriptor.

Antes de la corrección, la llamada al sistema copy_file_range verificó solo las capabilities CAP_READ y CAP_WRITE en los descriptores de archivos de entrada y salida, respectivamente. Usar un desplazamiento es lógicamente equivalente a buscar, y la llamada al sistema debe requerir adicionalmente la capability CAP_SEEK. Esta verificación de privilegios incorrecta permitió que los procesos aislados con solo lectura o escritura pero sin capacidad de búsqueda en un descriptor de archivo leyeran o escribieran datos en una ubicación arbitraria dentro del archivo correspondiente a ese descriptor de archivo.
