9pfs: local: lremovexattr: don't follow symlinks
The local_lremovexattr() callback is vulnerable to symlink attacks because it calls lremovexattr() which follows symbolic links in all path elements but the rightmost one. This patch introduces a helper to emulate the non-existing fremovexattrat() function: it is implemented with /proc/self/fd which provides a trusted path that can be safely passed to lremovexattr(). local_lremovexattr() is converted to use this helper and opendir_nofollow(). This partly fixes CVE-2016-9602. Signed-off-by: Greg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> Reviewed-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
