§

FileSetID = 4

Overrides the following restrictions that the effective user ID shall match the file owner ID when setting the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits on that file; that the effective group ID (or one of the supplementary group IDs) shall match the file owner ID when setting the S_ISGID bit on that file; that the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits are cleared on successful return from chown (not implemented).

Allow setting realtime ioprio class. Allow setting ioprio class on other processes.

§

SystemResource = 24

Override resource limits. Set resource limits. Override quota limits. Override reserved space on ext2 filesystem. Modify data journaling mode on ext3 filesystem (uses journaling resources).

Allow configuration of audit via unicast netlink socket.

§

SetFileCapabilities = 31

Set or remove capabilities on files. Map uid=0 into a child user namespace.

§

MACOverride = 32

Override MAC access. The base kernel enforces no MAC policy. An LSM may enforce a MAC policy, and if it does and it chooses to implement capability based overrides of that policy, this is the capability it should use to do so.

§

MACAdmin = 33

Allow MAC configuration or state changes. The base kernel requires no MAC configuration. An LSM may enforce a MAC policy, and if it does and it chooses to implement capability based checks on modifications to that policy or the data required to maintain it, this is the capability it should use to do so.

§

PerformanceMonitoring = 38

Allow system performance and observability privileged operations using perf_events, i915_perf and other kernel subsystems.

§

BerkeleyPacketFilters = 39

This capability allows the following BPF operations:

  • Creating all types of BPF maps
  • Advanced verifier features
    • Indirect variable access
    • Bounded loops
    • BPF to BPF function calls
    • Scalar precision tracking
    • Larger complexity limits
    • Dead code elimination
    • And potentially other features
  • Loading BPF Type Format (BTF) data
  • Retrieve xlated and JITed code of BPF programs
  • Use bpf_spin_lock helper

Capability::PerformanceMonitoring relaxes the verifier checks further:

  • BPF progs can use of pointer-to-integer conversions
  • speculation attack hardening measures are bypassed
  • bpf_probe_read to read arbitrary kernel memory is allowed
  • bpf_trace_printk to print kernel memory is allowed

Capability::SystemAdmin is required to use bpf_probe_write_user.

Capability::SystemAdmin is required to iterate system-wide loaded programs, maps, links, and BTFs, and convert their IDs to file descriptors.

Capability::PerformanceMonitoring and Capability::BerkeleyPacketFilters are required to load tracing programs. Capability::NetAdmin and Capability::BerkeleyPacketFilters are required to load networking programs.

§

CheckpointRestore = 40

Allow checkpoint/restore related operations. Allow PID selection during clone3. Allow writing to ns_last_pid.
