Package: dnsmasq
Version: 2.23-1
Severity: normal
The dnsmasq process on my machine runs as 'nobody', which is an
account that basically should not be used for anything. Since any
process owned by 'nobody' can intefere with any other process owned by
'nobody', its use by any server is significantly less secure than the
use of a special-purpose user (which is what most other daemons do,
and what I believe dnsmasq should do).
