It was found that when file permissions were modified via chmod and the user modifying them was not in the owning group or capable of CAP_FSETID, the setgid bit would be cleared. Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr sets the file permissions as well as the new ACL, but doesn’t clear the setgid bit in a similar way. This could allow a local user to gain group privileges via certain setgid applications.
