[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 06/29] 9pfs: local: open/opendir: don't follow symlinks

[Greg Kurz]

The local_open() and local_opendir() callbacks are vulnerable to symlink
attacks because they call:

(1) open(O_NOFOLLOW) which follows symbolic links in all path elements but
    the rightmost one
(2) opendir() which follows symbolic links in all path elements

This patch converts both callbacks to use new helpers based on
openat_nofollow() to only open files and directories if they are
below the virtfs shared folder

This partly fixes CVE-2016-9602.
