</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Summary     : Network traffic analyzer
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Description :
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Wireshark is a network traffic analyzer for Unix-ish operating
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; systems. It is based on GTK+, a graphical user interface library,
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; and libpcap, a packet capture and filtering library.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; wally &lt;wally&gt; 1.8.4-2.mga3:
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; + Revision: 324195
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; - install dumpcap setuid root as upstream suggests (to allow to
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; start wireshark as normal user)
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; - drop run-as-root hacks
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Hi,
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; It seems you introduced a security flaw: now all users are able to
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; capture the network traffic.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; This should be reverted, or restrictions should be added (maybe by
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; making consolekit add acls if possible).
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Perhaps only make it only work for users in the wheel group?
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>
Ah, yes. Didn't think that much. :\

As Colin suggested we could &quot;chgrp wheel /usr/bin/dumpcap &amp;&amp; chmod
4750 /usr/bin/dumpcap&quot;. Or we could create wireshark group for it and
do the same.
