They differ once the device is created in or moved to a netns other than the one the request runs in. The rtnl changelink path checks CAP_NET_ADMIN only against dev_net(dev), so a caller privileged there but not in t->net can rewrite a tunnel that lives in t->net. Gate ip6_tnl_changelink() on rtnl_dev_link_net_capable() at its top, before any attribute is parsed. A local attacker, privileged in one network namespace but not another, could exploit a missing capability check in the `ip6_tnl_changelink()` function. This vulnerability allows the attacker…
