Calling fchmodat2() to change a file attribute in the same fashion than chmod() or fchmodat() will bypass audit rules such as: -w /tmp/test -p rwa -k test_rwa The current patch adds fchmodat2() to the change attributes class. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | bpftool6.12 amzn 2023 | 1:6.12.77-99.140.amzn2023 |
