Check permission before opening a real file. ovl_path_open() is used by readdir and copy-up routines. ovl_permission() theoretically already checked copy up permissions, but it doesn't hurt to re-do these checks during the actual copy-up. For directory reading ovl_permission() only checks access to topmost underlying layer. Readdir on a merged directory accesses layers below the topmost one as well. Permission wasn't checked for these layers. Note: modifying ovl_permission() to perform this check would be far more complex and hence more bug prone. The result is less precise permissions returned in access(2). If this turns out to be an issue, we can revisit this bug. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com> |
