- caf 7y agoNot certainly - perhaps there's no device node available to you to open the device that contains the bootloader, and no mknod to create one?
- schoen 7y agoPerhaps then python -c 'import os; os.mknod("/tmp/yow", 0060000, 2048); os.chmod("/tmp/yow", 0777)' But clearly your point is right that a Unix environment could still prevent someone with root access from accessing the raw disk device, including at the kernel level.
- staticassertion 7y agoThat's not really something I expect from an attacker at all.
