commit 25fc94b2f02d832fa8e29419699dcc20b0b05c6a upstream. Invoking BPF_OBJ_GET on a pinned bpf_link checks the path access permissions based on file_flags, but the returned fd ignores flags. This means that any user can acquire a "read-write" fd for a pinned link with mode 0664 by invoking BPF_OBJ_GET with BPF_F_RDONLY in file_flags. The fd can be used to invoke BPF_LINK_DETACH, etc. Fix this by refusing non-O_RDWR flags in BPF_OBJ_GET. This works because OBJ_GET by default returns a read write mapping and libbpf doesn't expose a way to override this behaviour for programs and links.

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.
