Description Mark J. Cox 2005-01-25 13:09:21 UTC
*** This bug has been split off bug 146102 ***

------- Original comment by Mark J. Cox (Security Response Team) on 2005.01.25

The moxa char driver is missing a CAP_SYS_RAWIO check which could allow a local
user the ability to do things like replace the firmware.  This is already fixed
in 2.4-bk and in 2.6.10-ac7 from Alan Cox (although it's ommitted from 2.6.10-ac10).
