Subject: [PATCH] fix CVE-2025-46802: attacher.c - prevent temporary 0666 mode
on PTYs
This temporary chmod of the PTY to mode 0666 is most likely a remnant of
past times, before the PTY file descriptor was passed to the target
session via the UNIX domain socket.
This chmod() causes a race condition during which any other user in the
system can open the PTY for reading and writing, and thus allows PTY
hijacking.
Simply remove this logic completely.
