This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled unix: correctly track in-flight fds in sending process user_struct to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: unix-correctly-track-in-flight-fds-in-sending-process-user_struct.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Feb 29 14:33:50 PST 2016 From: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 3 Feb 2016 02:11:03 +0100 Subject: unix: correctly track in-flight fds in sending process user_struct From: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 415e3d3e90ce9e18727e8843ae343eda5a58fad6 ] The commit referenced in the Fixes tag incorrectly accounted the number of in-flight fds over a unix domain socket to the original opener of the file-descriptor. This allows another process to arbitrary deplete the original file-openers resource limit for the maximum of open files. Instead the sending processes and its struct cred should be credited. To do so, we add a reference counted struct user_struct pointer to the scm_fp_list and use it to account for the number of inflight unix fds.
