Package: base-passwd Version: 3.5.45 Severity: normal Hi,
the range 64040-64044 is assigned to various grsec-related groups. The groups are created by the linux-grsec-base package postinst, which was used when src:linux-grsec was a thing. Unfortunately, there is no more package since grsecurity is now private, so linux-grsec-base doesn't really make sense anymore (although it can still be used for grsecurity customers). The grsec-proc group (64044) can still be used with the hidepid feature of mainline Linux kernel, and I'm pondering providing a package doing some hardening and maybe creating that group. It could also be a different gid, but I guess reusing it doesn't hurt that much? Thanks in advance for your input on this.
