|---|
| 4 | Securely enter a chroot and run a command or login shell. |
|---|
| 5 | |
|---|
| 6 | Note that giving untrusted users root access to chroots is a serious |
|---|
| 7 | security risk! Although the untrusted user will only have root access |
|---|
| 8 | to files inside the chroot, in practice there are many obvious ways of |
|---|
| 9 | breaking out of the chroot and of disrupting services on the host |
|---|
| 10 | system. As always, this boils down to trust. Don't give chroot root |
|---|
| 11 | access to users you would not trust with root access to the host |
|---|
| 12 | system. |
|---|
| 13 | |
|---|
| 14 | For compatibility with existing tools and scripts, wrapper binaries |
|---|
| 15 | for dchroot and DSA dchroot are provided. |
