>Description:
Unprivileged users can add and delete interface link addresses.
net/link_proto.c:link_control() doesn't check for privileges for
the SIOCALIFADDR and SIOCDLIFADDR ioctl commands.
>How-To-Repeat:
int=xennet0
ifconfig $int link aa:00:23:17:42:ec
ifconfig $int | grep link
ifconfig $int link aa:00:23:17:42:ec -alias
ifconfig $int | grep link
>Fix:
Add the following code in link_control() after
case SIOCDLIFADDR:
if (l == NULL)
return (EPERM);
if (kauth_authorize_network(l->l_cred, KAUTH_NETWORK_INTERFACE,
KAUTH_REQ_NETWORK_INTERFACE_SETPRIV, ifp, (void *)cmd,
NULL) != 0)
return (EPERM);
/*FALLTHROUGH*/
Or centralize the check in net/if.c:ifioctl().
The same check is done in netinet/in.c:in_control().
