From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx> commit e57457641613fef0d147ede8bd6a3047df588b95 upstream. cgroup process migration permission checks are performed at write time as whether a given operation is allowed or not is dependent on the content of the write - the PID. This currently uses current's cgroup namespace which is a potential security weakness as it may allow scenarios where a less privileged process tricks a more privileged one into writing into a fd that it created. This patch makes cgroup remember the cgroup namespace at the time of open and uses it for migration permission checks instad of current's. Note that this only applies to cgroup2 as cgroup1 doesn't have namespace support. This also fixes a use-after-free bug on cgroupns reported in https://lore.kernel.org/r/00000000000048c15c05d0083397@xxxxxxxxxx Note that backporting this fix also requires the preceding patch.
