From bc6155d1326092f4c29fe05a32b614249620d88e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2017 17:58:08 -0500 Subject: fs: Allow superblock owner to access do_remount_sb() Superblock level remounts are currently restricted to global CAP_SYS_ADMIN, as is the path for changing the root mount to read only on umount. Loosen both of these permission checks to also allow CAP_SYS_ADMIN in any namespace which is privileged towards the userns which originally mounted the filesystem.
