commit b25a7c5af9051850d4f3d93ca500056ab6ec724b upstream.
The printing of section addresses in /sys/module/*/sections/* was not using the correct credentials to evaluate visibility.
Before:
# cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text 0xffffffffc0458000 ... # capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text" 0xffffffffc0458000 ...
After:
# cat /sys/module/*/sections/*.text 0xffffffffc0458000 ... # capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text" 0x0000000000000000 ...
Additionally replaces the existing (safe) /proc/modules check with file->f_cred for consistency.
