Subject: [PATCH net v4 5/7] net: ip6_gre: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2026 00:31:08 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260609163110.1717419-6-maoyixie.tju@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260609163110.1717419-1-maoyixie.tju@gmail.com>

ip6gre_changelink() and ip6erspan_changelink() rewrite the tunnel in its
creation netns. After an IFLA_NET_NS_FD migration that netns is not the
caller's, but the rtnl changelink path only checks CAP_NET_ADMIN against
the caller's netns. A caller with caps only in its current netns can then
rewrite a tunnel in another netns and pick its endpoint addresses.

Gate both ops on net_admin_capable() at their top, before any attribute
is parsed. The check is skipped when the tunnel netns is the device's
current netns, where the rtnl path already checked the cap.

Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CABAhCOSzP1vaThGV35_VnsRCb=87_CPjPVsTHbq905k8A+BuUg@mail.gmail.com/
