+Subject: [PATCH] reiserfs: Fix permissions on .reiserfs_priv
+References: bnc#593906 CVE-2010-1146
+Patch-mainline: Submitted 8 Apr 2010
+
+ Commit 677c9b2e393a0cd203bd54e9c18b012b2c73305a removed the magic
+ from the lookup code to hide the .reiserfs_priv directory since it
+ was getting loaded at mount-time instead. The intent was that the
+ entry would be hidden from the user via a poisoned d_compare, but
+ this was faulty.
+
+ This introduced a security issue where unpriviledged users could
+ access and modify extended attributes or ACLs belonging to other
+ users, including root.
+
+ This patch resolves the issue by properly hiding .reiserfs_priv. This
+ was the intent of the xattr poisoning code, but it appears to have
+ never worked as expected. This is fixed by using d_revalidate instead
+ of d_compare.
+
+ This patch makes -oexpose_privroot a no-op. I'm fine leaving it this
+ way. The effort involved in working out the corner cases wrt permissions
+ and caching outweigh the benefit of the feature.
