Subject: [PATCH] MPBL0010 driver sysfs permissions wide open
Date: Tue, 04 Apr 2006 12:32:21 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4432C9C5.7090800@mvista.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 330 bytes --]

The MPBL0010 Telco clock driver (drivers/char/tlclk.c) uses 0222 (anyone 
can write) permissions on its writable sysfs entries. IMHO this is a bit 
too wide open for proper security. The patch (against 2.6.16.1) alters 
the permissions to 0220 (owner and group can write).
