Unclear It is not clear whether commands already running are still cancelled, or which systems the new path checks apply to.
What
Remote tool serving lets a cloud session run commands on your computer. Its changes:
- Off-switch wording: the emergency off-switch message now says no new command is accepted until it is turned back on. Before, it said any command a cloud session was running on this computer was cancelled.
- Mount table: the list of mounted drives and folders is now read from
/proc/self/mountinfo. - Special links: paths through special links under
/procand/dev/fdare rejected. - Folder aliases: aliases such as
/binfor/usr/binare treated as the same place.
Why
The off-switch now describes stopping new commands rather than cancelling running ones. The stricter path checks make it harder for a remote command to reach files through indirect routes.
