Subject: inotify_rm_watch behavior
Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2006 15:05:24 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200609111505.24567.efleury@br.ibm.com> (raw)

Hey all,

I'm doing some tests and currently inotify_rm_watch is not performing any 
permission checks, i.e., an ordinary user can remove a watch set by root on a 
file with root:root 400 permission.

Is this the expected behavior? Seems like neither MAC nor MLS checks are being 
done.

Regards,
