module: Do not expose section addresses to non-CAP_SYSLOG
commit b25a7c5a 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.
