Hi all, I wonder what it would take to make the security extension more useful again. A lot of people use X remotely with ssh which is unsafe without something like this. Openssh has convenient support to run clients as untrusted. Atleast for the programs I use remotely this works well.
Currently, the extension is not even compiled by default and there are a few clients which crash (but this seem to be minor problems and most seem to work just fine). I am currently trying to understand how much protection this extension actually provides and what is still missing. It would also be nice to have the RENDER extension available to untrusted clients. Because it already has XACE hooks, this might be doable. Any comments?
