Subject: [PATCH 6/6] ipv4: Allow unprivileged users to use per net sysctls
Date: Sat, 19 Oct 2013 16:27:35 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ppr0g7tk.fsf@xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87r4bghml4.fsf-aS9lmoZGLiVWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org> (Eric W. Biederman's message of "Sat, 19 Oct 2013 16:23:19 -0700")
Allow unprivileged users to use:
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_ignore_bogus_error_response
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_ratelimit
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_ratemask
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_ports_range
These are occassionally handy and after a quick review I don't see
any problems with unprivileged users using them.
