>Description:
Securelevels consist of different security measures lumped together. A more
useful approach would be to enable the administrator to set various measures
individually; for example, one may wish not to allow modules to be loaded or
unloaded, but at the same time allow the immutable flag to be unset from
files. The existing mechanism makes such differentiation impossible.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Instead of providing securelevels, provide ON/OFF switches for individual
security measures, or, at least, provide these switches within the context of
existing securelevels.
