Subject: Re: [patch 00/10]  mount ownership and unprivileged mount syscall (v3)
Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2007 03:08:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87d522kvmw.fsf@jbms.ath.cx> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070416110308.739051445@szeredi.hu> (Miklos Szeredi's message of "Mon, 16 Apr 2007 13:03:08 +0200")

It seems that this might introduce serious denial of service
possibilities due to the fact that many of the file systems are not
robust to invalid on-block-device data.
