[PATCH] aacraid: Resend, Fix security hole

From: Alan Cox
Date: Mon Jul 23 2007 - 09:44:23 EST


On the SCSI layer ioctl path there is no implicit permissions check for
ioctls (and indeed other drivers implement unprivileged ioctls). aacraid
however allows all sorts of very admin only things to be done so should
check.
