This forces us to run tftpd as root, to serve $CHROOT/boot to netboot clients, so it's actually LESS secure than it was before the change.

Also note that initrd.img, which may actually contain private information, is world-readable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/759725 Title: The kernel is no longer readable by non-root users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/759725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
