Jilles Tjoelker <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #2 from Jilles Tjoelker <[email protected]> --- The pid in LOCAL_PEERCRED is not a security feature but only a feature to enforce that a proper security feature can be added later. This is because there is nothing to enforce that the pid refers to the same process or that it has not executed some other binary; also, applications are not isolated in a way that makes different Wayland privileges useful for security. Adding pid to struct ucred seems wrong since it is shared between processes that do not change their credentials. This would make more sense as a property of the socket. The pid would then be the pid of the process that called listen() or connect(). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
