commit 688e8128b7a92df982709a4137ea4588d16f24aa upstream. Protect the iSCSI transport handle, available in sysfs, by requiring CAP_SYS_ADMIN to read it. Also protect the netlink socket by restricting reception of messages to ones sent with CAP_SYS_ADMIN. This disables normal users from being able to end arbitrary iSCSI sessions.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
