The following bash script running under a normal user (Debian Linux)
makes a lot of directory's on a ext2 file system. After it has stop, I
cannot remove them (as root). Now I know this, I think is is a security
risk because all users can stop my server. I don't know if this is a bug
in mkdir/rmdir. Perhaps I don't have the knowledge to solve this
problem.
Don't test this script in a root partition because I had to make a new
ext2 file system on my test partition.
#!/bin/bash
while [ 1 ]
do
mkdir testdir
cd testdir
done
# end
If it is a bug then this email is my first bug report. Actually I did
not discover this problem myself but a friend told me he had read this
in a document on the internet.
