           Summary: Xenstore Permissions Checking
           Product: Xen
           Version: unstable
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools
        AssignedTo: xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: jyoung5@xxxxxxxxxx


Problem:
    Xenstore currently does not check permissions in the store. What this means
is that an unprivileged domains can  domain can do anything it likes, this
includes manipulating data in the store for another doamin ( like screwing iwth
the domains memory).

Possible Solution:
    Xenstore permissions checking needs to be implemented in Xend and enabled.
