This may be necessary, but it will prevent i.e. live-iso builders from writing for instance a CAP_NET_RAW=pe (instead of setuid-root) /bin/ping in the iso. > diff --git a/fs/fuse/dir.c b/fs/fuse/dir.c > index e3123bfbc711..1a3ee5663dea 100644 > --- a/fs/fuse/dir.c > +++ b/fs/fuse/dir.c > @@ -1882,6 +1882,10 @@ static int fuse_setxattr(struct dentry *entry, const char *name, > if (fc->no_setxattr) > return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > + if (!(fc->flags & FUSE_PRIV_XATTRS) && > + strncmp(name, XATTR_USER_PREFIX, XATTR_USER_PREFIX_LEN) != 0) > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > + > req = fuse_get_req_nopages(fc); > if (IS_ERR(req)) > return PTR_ERR(req); > @@ -1925,6 +1929,10 @@ static ssize_t fuse_getxattr(struct dentry *entry, const char *name, > if (fc->no_getxattr) > return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > + if (!(fc->flags & FUSE_PRIV_XATTRS) && > + strncmp(name, XATTR_USER_PREFIX, XATTR_USER_PREFIX_LEN) != 0) > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > + > req = fuse_get_req_nopages(fc); > if (IS_ERR(req)) > return PTR_ERR(req); > diff --git a/fs/fuse/fuse_i.h b/fs/fuse/fuse_i.h > index 81187ba04e4a..bc0fd14b962a 100644 > --- a/fs/fuse/fuse_i.h > +++ b/fs/fuse/fuse_i.h > @@ -46,6 +46,11 @@ > doing the mount will be allowed to access the filesystem */ > #define FUSE_ALLOW_OTHER (1 << 1) > > +/** If the FUSE_PRIV_XATTRS flag is given, then xattrs outside the > + user.* namespace are allowed.
