Of sorts. I don’t recall ever seeing a Warbler in my yard until yesterday, when

Sounds insane, but it allows remote upgrades over the network because it will
So rm -rf / wipes your whole hard drive. If you have the permissions
to do it. Because the exploit actually opens a terminal, it could
theoretically do this, but note that the guy could not get a command
with spaces to work. I have ideas for possible easy ways around this,
though.

No - I don't have a clue what you're talking about. I need an idiot's

Root services are running at all times in Unix, a security hole allows
an unautorized user to take over
the service, that's what most of the security holes in Windows NT based
systems are dealing with these
days. There used to be several very large holes in UNIX so I don't
doubt that there are

Thanks Herb. I assume these commands are only accessed on deeper levels,

Command line stuff, Cotty. Sounds like it is probably not to worry about. Most
likely set up so Apple's Helpdesk people can get into your machine and fix
things remotely. A deliberate back door (see the movie War Games).

Actually, if / is set user root. Nothing would happen. The command would have
to be rewritten slightly to do what you mentioned. I think I will not say
specifically how, to save Cotty having problems (GRIN), though almost any book
on Unix Systems Administration would have a warning about it. I

my assumption too, but if Apple had thought about it enough, they would have
used a special id and group for the service.

Really? What do you think would happen if you did this?

Brad,
That's stretching the meaning of the word essential way past the breaking
