An addition to patches you work now: /usr/games/cfscores and /usr/games/snscore should be moved out of DM (remove HIDEGAME since they are not a games). It assumes that score files itself remains public-readable, of course. BTW, better way to be protected is not make binary setuid/gid at all if possible, more better then revoke setuid/gid early at startup since worms can be found in startup code. Bloating non setuid/gid binary with revoke code is not needed and not helps for startup worms in any case. -- Andrey A. Chernov <ache@null.net> http://www.nagual.pp.ru/~ache/
