You make it sound so easy to gain root. I am aware that the Linux kernel is not 100% guaranteed free from privilege escalation bugs. But it is very important to know the escalation vector. Given that the kernel used is fully updated and root SSH login dismissed do you know a way of getting root without an unknown kernel bug? Ed <http://blog.eonsec.com>
... My finger points at PHP, indirectly, through a hole in an application giving a remote attacker local user privs. Once they're in your system, all bets are off - even if they're not root yet, they could be sometime soon. Graeme
