https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=211580 --- Comment #5 from Joe Barbish <qjail1@a1poweruser.com> --- I have been thinking about this more and I remember having this discussion some time a few years ago in the past. There is nothing wrong with the dmesg command issued from within a non-vimage jail showing the in kernel message info. This also happens with the ifconfig command when issued from within a non-vimage jail. The intent was not to give a compromised jail attacker any indication he was not on the host, but in a jailed environment. Turning off dmesg or ifconfig when issued from a jail would indeed be such an indication. In a vnet/vimage this would also be true for the dmesg command. This is not a bug, but done by design with intent. This pr should be closed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
