Yes, i guess there is little doubt that capsicum is the superior (compared to seccomp) capabilities framework, but if it's not used outside of FreeBSD's base, (e.g. ssh, bhyve, etc.) then it is indeed a shame.

Does anybody know if FreeBSD has any form of sandboxing (e.g. seccomp) available for any of the available browsers?

Most people who have tried tiling window managers come to the same conclusion. It's a true eye-opener.

iirc, OpenWRT also uses password-less root access via ssh by default and indeed, one might find these kind of configs in provisioning setups quite often. What are the options these days besides default user/pw? The (Plastic)Router from

'The affected SSHD configuration has the PermitEmptyPasswords option set to "yes".' Wow.

Isn't wireless hardware in general more like a IP/Patenting/Licensing issue?

> I think that long term they are much better off controlling their entire hardware stack. But CPU/GPU aren't the only chips Apple is sourcing from 3rd party. Think wireless modems like WiFi, LTE, etc.

edit: not part of the kernel, but userpace utilities to interact with the kernel api.

ebtables ≠ iptables. Both are part of the netfilter subsystem in the linux kernel.

FreeBSD's Jails doesnt allow raw socket access by default since i have been using it (~10Y) and probably even much longer. edit: Since 2004 to be precise. https://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.3R/relnotes-amd64.h

Thanks, you are right. If he refers this post (which i believe he does), he is indeed right. Anyhow, personally i wouldn't exclude something like this, e.g. suing, as a last resort. Anything that changes apples attitude towards securit

I dont understand the implied correlation between, what you call, irresponsible disclosure and "wanting to hurt apple". Where did you get this impression from? edit: Typo.

by sydney6 9y ago
Not the attitude of the people reporting the issue have put "millions of apple customers" at risk, but the company which allowed to let issues like this one slip through their Q&A process. IMO, this behaviour is part of the pr

Well, i can only account for the machines that i have, of course.. Most Business Laptops come with Intel Chipsets (Wifi, Ethernet, Graphics, etc.) throughout and at least these should be working fine.
