Extending lwpsinfo_t with pr_lgrp for DTrace consumers
The sched provider defines the stable "lgrp" variable that is the lgroup of
the current CPU. This is mostly interesting when we can compare it with the
actual thread home lgroup, so I''d like to extend the lwpsinfo_t structure with
the new pr_lgrp field which will be implemented using translator. This will
match the addition of the pr_lgrp field to the proc(4) lwpsinfo_t

User Privileges and Dtrace
Dear Experts,
My customer is migrating to Solaris 10 from Solaris 8 and have asked me to determine if: With Dtrace, is the user limited to probing only processes they own?
The customer has a general security requirement to control user access via management of privileges. Currently, on Solaris 8, LDAP is strongly while RBAC is weakly applied. This will likely change in the Solaris 10 production

how can we use libdtrace within the DTrace security restrictions?
Hi all,
What is the correct way to give one non-root user the ability to use
DTrace with providers running in a process by another user?
Through the Web Stack project and some work by Ludovic Champenois and
Nasser Nouri, we have done a bit of work to bring together parts of
chime, the Web Stack Apache, Ruby and PHP providers, and stuff reused
from the DTrace toolkit. It''s in

Debian's Xen versions are vulnerable to a PV privilege escalation [1]. The issue
is tracked as CVE-2012-0217 and public as of today.
Therefore I am filing this bug for coordination

dtrace missing ''unlinkat''? showing process stack?
everyone,
Just out of curiosity, I did a
dtrace -n ''syscall:::entry { @num[execname, probefunc] = count(); }''
and looked at the entries produced by ''rm''.
I see everything that rm did, *except* the unlinkat - which is unfortunate because I want to trace which processes have deleted which files.
So - does dtrace contain unlinkat as a probe for a system call?

rsyncing from a compressed tarball.
Mike,
As it stands right now, we use xz for our compression, so if rsync had
a similar option for xz that would probably be an improvement.
However, I think being able to decompress directly to the remote
system would save more; elsewise I don't see how I'm going to be able
to avoid untarring and uncompressing the whole xz file on the other
end.
thanks much,

Intel LAN Driver Buffer Overflow Local Privilege Escalation
Hi,
I found an advisory
(http://www.intel.com/support/network/sb/CS-023726.htm) from intel for
their LAN driver for the eepro100 and gigabit network cards.
Is the FreeBSD em driver in any way affected by this problem? Looks like
it is at least derived from the intel driver.

Local privilege escalation bug in kernel
Do we know if this bug affects Centos?
http://www.techworld.com.au/article/413300/linux_vendors_rush_patch_privilege_escalation_flaw_after_root_exploits_emerge
The article states that it affects kernel 2.6.39 and above, but since RH
backports so much stuff I'm not sure if this would actually include the Centos
kernels.
