5 Just noticed that there are other setuid-issues when I run
6 the hardened kernel. screen(1), for instance, suddenly
7 requires me to set /var/run/screen to 1777, so that it can
8 create the socket in there. Even though it should not:
9
10 peti# ls -ld /usr/bin/screen /var/run/screen
11 -rwxr-s--x 1 root utmp 423K Jun 18 01:15 /usr/bin/screen
12 drwxrwx--- 4 root utmp 4.0K Jun 18 03:00 /var/run/screen
13
14 But:
15
16 peti:~$ screen
17 Directory '/var/run/screen' must have mode 777.
18
19 Weird.
