"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfs: Pass AT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag to getattr interface function\n\nWhen vfs_getattr_nosec() calls a filesystem's getattr interface function\nthen the 'nosec' should propagate into this function so that\nvfs_getattr_nosec() can again be called from the filesystem's gettattr\nrather than vfs_getattr(). The latter would add unnecessary security\nchecks that the initial vfs_getattr_nosec() call wanted to avoid.\nTherefore, introduce the getattr flag GETATTR_NOSEC and allow to pass\nwith the new getattr_flags parameter to the getattr interface function.\nIn overlayfs and ecryptfs use this flag to determine which one of the\ntwo functions to call.\n\nIn a recent code change introduced to IMA vfs_getattr_nosec() ended up\ncalling vfs_getattr() in overlayfs, which in turn called\nsecurity_inode_getattr() on an exiting process that did not have\ncurrent->fs set anymore, which then caused a kernel NULL pointer\ndereference. With this change the call to security_inode_getattr() can\nbe avoided, thus avoiding the NULL pointer dereference."

"value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: fs: pasar el indicador AT_GETATTR_NOSEC a la funci\u00f3n de interfaz getattr. Cuando vfs_getattr_nosec() llama a la funci\u00f3n de interfaz getattr de un sistema de archivos, entonces 'nosec' debe propagarse a esta funci\u00f3n para que se pueda volver a llamar a vfs_getattr_nosec() desde gettattr del sistema de archivos en lugar de vfs_getattr(). Esto \u00faltimo agregar\u00eda controles de seguridad innecesarios que la llamada inicial a vfs_getattr_nosec() quer\u00eda evitar. Por lo tanto, introduzca el indicador getattr GETATTR_NOSEC y permita pasar con el nuevo par\u00e1metro getattr_flags a la funci\u00f3n de interfaz getattr. En overlayfs y ecryptfs use este indicador para determinar cu\u00e1l de las dos funciones llamar. En un cambio de c\u00f3digo reciente introducido en IMA, vfs_getattr_nosec() termin\u00f3 llamando a vfs_getattr() en overlayfs, que a su vez llam\u00f3 a security_inode_getattr() en un proceso saliente que ya no ten\u00eda current->fs configurado, lo que luego provoc\u00f3 una desreferencia del puntero NULL del kernel . Con este cambio se puede evitar la llamada a security_inode_getattr(), evitando as\u00ed la desreferencia del puntero NULL."
