Subject: CVE-2016-7097 causes acl leak
Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2016 09:16:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bb7177d2-08dc-d75c-9012-26e3b2888461@android.com> (raw)

Commit 073931017b49d9458aa351605b43a7e34598caef has several occurrences 
of an acl leak.

posix_acl_update_mode(inose, &mode, &acl);

. . .

posix_acl_release(acl);


acl is NULLed in posix_acl_update_mode to signal caller to not update 
the acl; but because it is nulled, it is never released.


Sincerely -- Mark Salyzyn
