Subject: message queue limits
Date: Sun, 11 Apr 2004 22:48:28 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <407A2DAC.3080802@redhat.com> (raw)
Something has to change in the way message queues are created.
Currently it is possible for an unprivileged user to exhaust all mq
slots so that only root can create a few more. Any other unprivileged
user has no change to create anything.
I think it is necessary to create a per-user limit instead of a
system-wide limit.
