[ Upstream commit 3ca459eaba1bf96a8c7878de84fa8872259a01e3 ] Currently tun checks the group permission even if the user have matched. Besides going against the usual permission semantic, this has a very interesting implication: if the tun group is not among the supplementary groups of the tun user, then effectively no one can access the tun device. CAP_SYS_ADMIN still can, but its the same as not setting the tun ownership. This patch relaxes the group checking so that either the user match or the group match is enough. This avoids the situation when no one can access the device even though the ownership is properly set. Also I simplified the logic by removing the redundant inversions: tun_not_capable() --> !tun_capable() Signed-off-by: Stas Sergeev <stsp2@yandex.ru> Reviewed-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241205073614.294773-1-stsp2@yandex.ru Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
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.
