Who loads the module - root. Who maintains the list of signatures - root. Who controls the code that verifies the signature - root. Your task Jim, should you choose to accept it, is to make the kernel distinguish between a good use of root and a malicious use by some who has broken in and got root privileges. When you can do that, then we can add signed modules. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
