The following reply was made to PR kern/131032; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Dominic Fandrey <kamikaze@bsdforen.de> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, kamikaze@bsdforen.de Cc: Subject: Re: kern/131032: [panic] hald causing panic in scsi_sg Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2009 10:35:17 +0100 I wonder how HAL manages to start this panic. It doesn't have the rights to access any SCSI device. I did a # su -m haldaemon and tried read operations on all da*, cd*, xpt* and pass* devices. And all I ever received was: Permission denied So how doe HAL go about accessing things it must not? This looks like a major breech of security to me.
