 philipp | about unpriviliged users can install packages: That is true on any normal linux desktop/server. Even if the package manager doesn't help you, local users will be able to execute all the code they want to. | 18:38:41 |
 andi- | I also have a few ideas for PoCs on how to demonstrate downsides of our current stuff and what the average NixOS contributor should be aware of... DM me (in a few days/weeks) if you feel like you need more :) | 18:38:44 |

I thought about mentioning security of NixOS containers where root in container is root on the host
This was mitigated some time ago IRRC?

| kunrooted | afaik | 18:39:16 |
| kunrooted | you can make specific users having just write access to just specific things, it's really flexible af | 18:39:37 |
| andi- | You can set noexec on ~ | 18:39:39 |

it won't be an issue anymore? | 18:39:55 |
| andi- | I vaguely recall someone talking about it months ago | 18:40:10 |
| kunrooted | I was writing a container a while ago and it was mentioned an issue then by some of my collegues | 18:40:14 |
| andi- | perhaps this? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/67336 | 18:41:05 |
| kunrooted | ah, so it limits a root on the container? | 18:41:36 |
| kunrooted | I think that still not many people might know about this option | 18:42:19 |
| andi- | It wasn't merged yet so who knows what the actual state is :D | 18:42:43 |
| kunrooted | yeah, it's a 'draft', weird | 18:42:53 |

 ris_ | hah. i've heard of squash-merges before but this author squashes their entire releases https://github.com/pgpartman/pg_partman/commit/0b6565ad378c358f8a6cd1d48ddc482eb7f854d3 | 13:01:19 |
| ris_ | luckily the search_path changes are all i need and they are separable by file | 13:01:56 |
| ris_ | nothing fetchpatch can't handle | 13:02:09 |
