Bug #: 14328
Summary: Rewriter::overwriteChangedFiles() extremely dangerous
when running as root.
Product: clang
Version: trunk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P
Component: -New Bugs

Classification: Unclassified
I've been using clang's Rewriter to perform source-to-source transforms on
specific source files. If a rewrite changes (accidentally or otherwise) a
system include file, and you call overwriteChangedFiles(), and you have write
permission, the include file will be modified. I believe this is rarely desired
behavior, and it is performed silently.
