Package: dpkg Version: 1.13.25 Severity: important When the -c option is used to launch a process with reduced privileges the setsid() system call should be used to prevent ioctl(fd, TIOCSTI, &c) being used to push characters in to the sys-admin terminal input buffer.
setsid() is currently called when the -b option is used, I believe that this needs to be extended to support all uses of -c. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-xen-686 Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages dpkg depends on: ii coreutils 5.97-5 The GNU core utilities ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries dpkg recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
