Subject: dynamic context transitions - a seteuid parallel
Date: Mon, 1 Nov 2004 19:28:53 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041101192853.GF9643@lkcl.net> (raw)

okay, so this dynamic context transitions idea is pretty much
identical to the seteuid equivalence proposals, and doing
an equivalent of seteuid() it has been made abundantly clear
[many times], and why, that it should not be done.

... question: what it is about MLS that makes it so necessary to
implement dynamic context transitions?

what are the alternatives?

l.

p.s. not that i actually understand MLS enough to understand any answers
[yet] but i'm just encouraging people to bounce ideas.
