CVE-2008-0217

FreeBSD CVE-2008-0217 describes two pty handling flaws in openpty/ptsname that allow a non‑root user to snoop or hijack a tty: when openpty is called by openpty, the new pty is world‑readable/writable; ptsname returns potentially invalid device names used by pt_chown to transfer ownership. Affect...
