From dfc47ef8639facd77210e74be831943c2fdd9c74 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2012 03:03:00 +0000 Subject: net: Push capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) into the rtnl methods - In rtnetlink_rcv_msg convert the capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) check to ns_capable(net->user-ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN). Allowing unprivileged users to make netlink calls to modify their local network namespace. - In the rtnetlink doit methods add capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) so that calls that are not safe for unprivileged users are still protected. Later patches will remove the extra capable calls from methods that are safe for unprivilged users. Acked-by: Serge Hallyn Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S.
