Do you mean CAP_NET_RAW? Here's the comments for it:
/* Allow use of RAW sockets */
/* Allow use of PACKET sockets */
/* Allow binding to any address for transparent proxying (also via NET_ADMIN) */
Func restricted_pointer() from lib/vsprintf.c uses CAP_SYSLOG. The comment for CAP_SYSLOG:
/* Allow configuring the kernel's syslog (printk behaviour) */
Func kallsyms_show_value() also uses CAP_SYSLOG. And there is a non-exported global kptr_restrict that they use apparently to allow overriding all this for profiling.
Here is NET_ADMIN's comments:
/* Allow interface configuration */
/* Allow administration of IP firewall, masquerading and accounting */
/* Allow setting debug option on sockets */
/* Allow modification of routing tables */
/* Allow setting arbitrary process / process group ownership on
sockets */
/* Allow binding to any address for transparent proxying (also via NET_RAW) */
/* Allow setting TOS (type of service) */
/* Allow setting promiscuous mode */
/* Allow clearing driver statistics */
/* Allow multicasting */
/* Allow read/write of device-specific registers */
/* Allow activation of ATM control sockets */
