[PATCH] netfilter: don't permit unprivileged writes to global state via sysctls

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This prevents the modification of nf_conntrack_max in unprivileged network
namespaces. For unprivileged network namespaces, ip_conntrack_max is kept
as a readonly sysctl in order to minimize potential compatibility issues.

This patch should apply cleanly to the net tree.
