commitd2f007dbe7upstream. The current logic first clones the extent array and sorts both copies, then maps the lower IDs of the forward mapping into the lower namespace, but doesn't map the lower IDs of the reverse mapping. This means that code in a nested user namespace with >5 extents will see incorrect IDs. It also breaks some access checks, like inode_owner_or_capable() and privileged_wrt_inode_uidgid(), so a process can incorrectly appear to be capable relative to an inode. To fix it, we have to make sure that the "lower_first" members of extents in both arrays are translated; and we have to make sure that the reverse map is sorted *after* the translation (since otherwise the translation can break the sorting). This is CVE-2018-18955. Fixes:6397fac491("userns: bump idmap limits to 340") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Tested-by: Eric W.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
