Title:
shiftfs: chown sets untranslated ids in lower fs
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
SRU Justification
Impact: shiftfs_setattr() creates an iattr struct with shifted ids for
the lower fs, but then mistakenly passes the original iattr struct
when changing the lower filesystem attributes. As a result, chown on a
shiftfs filesystem sets ownership using the untranslated user and
group ids.
Fix: Pass the struct containing shifted uids to notify_change().
Regression Potential: This is a simple and obvious fix, and it has
been tested to confirm it fixes the issue. Therefore the risk of
regressions is low.
Test Case: Within a lxd container using shiftfs, run:
# mkdir dir
# touch file
# ls -lh dir file
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Apr 11 13:05 dir
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Apr 11 13:05 file
# chown 500:500 dir file
# ls -lh dir file
Expected result:
drwxr-xr-x 2 500 500 4.0K Apr 11 13:05 dir
-rw-r--r-- 1 500 500 0 Apr 11 13:05 file
Result in 5.0.0-10.11:
drwxr-xr-x 2 1000500 1000500 4.0K Apr 11 12:42 dir
-rw-r--r-- 1 1000500 1000500 0 Apr 11 12:42 file
