From: Michal Koutný <mkoutny@suse.com> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.109 commit ea21245cdcab3f2b46aecd421ac5f5753a1cf88d bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I574AE Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 467a726b754f474936980da793b4ff2ec3e382a7 upstream. The idea is to check: a) the owning user_ns of cgroup_ns, b) capabilities in init_user_ns. The commit 24f600856418 ("cgroup-v1: Require capabilities to set release_agent") got this wrong in the write handler of release_agent since it checked user_ns of the opener (may be different from the owning user_ns of cgroup_ns). Secondly, to avoid possibly confused deputy, the capability of the opener must be checked.
