Title:
GVFS violating UNIX permissions inside Samba shares
Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
If a samba share is mounted with gvfs-mount or just using the file
manager on a Linux client, any user having write permissions in that
share can edit and change all files inside this share even if their
UNIX permissions would not allow. That means for instance, that an
ordinary user can edit and change a file belonging to root:root with
permissions 0644 (-rw-r--r--) inside this share. Afterwards, on the
server, the file will no more belong to root:root, but to $USER:$USER.
This violation of UNIX permissions does not happen if the share is
mounted via cifs-vfs (mount -t cifs) or SmbNetFS instead, irrespective
of UNIX extensions beeng active or not.
Ubuntu 16.04
Samba Version 4.3.11-Ubuntu (server and client)
gvfs 1.28.2 (client)
