Re: /proc filesystem allows bypassing directory permissions on L
Why not?!?
File permissions allow everybody write access to the file.
The path via /proc to the file has been created when the initial path
via /tmp was wide open.
Closing the initial path via /tmp has no effect on the /proc path
And due to the actual file permissions the read-only fd can easily
changed to read-write.
