Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fs/efivarfs: restrict inode permissions
Date: Thu, 15 Feb 2018 10:22:07 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180215182208.35003-2-joe.konno@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180215182208.35003-1-joe.konno@linux.intel.com>

From: Joe Konno <joe.konno@intel.com>

Efivarfs nodes are created with group and world readable permissions.
Reading certain EFI variables trigger SMIs. So, this is a potential DoS
surface.

Make permissions more restrictive-- only the owner may read or write to
created inodes.
