I have now tested on one of my systems and that I have a security problem there. On the other system (2.4.26 + grsec) the problem do not exist. So I'm not
sure if I can confim or deny this.

How did you tested and found what kind of security problem?
I assume you found you couldn't pass the test 109,121 of testfs.sh script, right?

Let me quote the explanation from upstream:
<quote>
23:51 < Bertl> 109 and 121 indicate that the barrier is not working ...
23:52 < Bertl> -> minor issue with namespaces, major chroot security issue with
               legacy guests

It would be really good if you could install the sarge util-vserver on the sid kernel-patch-vserver + linux-source-2.6.12 system to see if this is a
problem with util-vserver or with the kernel patches.


I tested that several days ago, I was upgraded kernel on my system first and then I got the same fails from the test of testfs.sh script again. I have upgraded to 0.30.208-2, I still got the same fails on i386, but no errors on powerpc after I rebuilt the util-vserver package from source.

Here is how I did the test and what I got on an i386 machine:
# testfs.sh -l -t -D /dev/loop4 -M /mnt
