Subject: [PATCH] qemu: caps: Use CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE for probing to avoid
permission issues
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
This is mainly about /dev/sev and its default permissions 0600. Of
course, rule of 'tinfoil' would be that we can't trust anything, but the
probing code in QEMU is considered safe from security's perspective + we
can't create an udev rule for this at the moment, because ioctls and
file system permissions aren't cross-checked in kernel and therefore a
user with read permissions could issue a 'privileged' operation on SEV
which is currently only limited to root.
