*** This bug has been split off bug 146102 *** ------- Original comment by Mark J. Cox (Security Response Team) on 2005.01.25 08:07 ------- 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). Patch available: http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.4/cset@41e2c5fb3htiRRycYu5I4skGWXcv5g
