Subject[RFC PATCH 1/1] security: add SECURE_KEEP_FSUID to preserve fsuid/fsgid across execve
Date
Many kernel interfaces require real and/or effective root uid instead
of relying solely of capabilities. An executable that uses such
interfaces has to be set-uid-root or be executed by a thread with
effective root uid. Presently, fsuid and saved uid will reset to the
effective uid during execve. As a result, it is not possible to
execute a binary such that it has effective root uid but retains
fsuid/fsgid of the actual user. Retaining fsuid/fsgid of the actual
user could be required if the executable needs to access the
filesystem. It may also be desired from the security perspective of
delegating the minimal set of privileges.

Setting SECURE_KEEP_FSUID bit ensures that the current fsuid/fsgiud is
retained by execve.
