Control: tags -1 patch Please find attached a very basic patch which inverts the logic, introducing a udev ENV attribute to specify which devices are safe to probe, and assuming that devices are not safe unless specified otherwise.
It is evident from the history of this bug that the maintainers don't agree with this as an approach. IMO this situation is a very serious bug because it has possible personal safety implications. If I don't get a positive response, I will escalate this (belatedly!) to the TC. By a "positive response" I mean a promise to arrange that (at least in buster), Debian will no longer by default probe unknown serial devices without explicit user permission of some kind. Thanks, Ian. -- Ian Jackson <[email protected]> These opinions are my own.
