Re: User namespaces (unpriviledged)

Apparently since the release of Bullseye, it is enabled by default (https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#linux-user-namespaces): The previous Debian default was to restrict this feature to processes running as root, because it exposed more security issu...

User namespaces (unpriviledged)

Hello,

I've been reading about unpriviledged user namespaces and apparently the use of it is considered unsafe. It can make vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel more easily exploitable.

Is this still true with the kernel of the latest version of Debian?

Thanks

Hi, I’m noticing that the automatic turning on of the vpn, often fails and I think it’s because it occurs too quickly - as running it again it normally works. It cannot start too quickly as the script is only started when the interface is up and running (issued by event). check journal: sudo journa...
