[PATCH 4/7] procfs privacy: /proc/bus & /proc/net directory entries

From: Lorenzo Hernández García-Hierro
Date: Mon Apr 18 2005 - 13:55:55 EST


This patch changes the permissions of the /proc/net and /proc/bus
directory entries so non-root users are restricted from accessing them.

It's also available at:
