What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb/client: fix chown/chgrp with SMB3 POSIX Extensions

Ownership (chown) and group (chgrp) modifications were being ignored when

mounting with SMB3 POSIX Extensions unless CIFS_MOUNT_CIFS_ACL or

CIFS_MOUNT_MODE_FROM_SID were also explicitly set.

Fix this by checking for posix_extensions in cifs_setattr_nounix() when

updating UID and GID, ensuring that id_mode_to_cifs_acl() is called to map

and set the ownership/group information on the server.
