I'm looking into using ibsh as a restricted shell for ssh access
to virtual host containers. For the most part, our customers are
trustworthy and for us ibsh strikes a nice balance between
security, complexity and functionality. I've looked at rbash,
ondir and chroot ssh (and a post from Theo that says chroot ssh
is not worth the effort).
I see ibsh is vulnerable to programs that can spawn their own
shells (like vim and emacs). I am assuming there is a way to
disable this features from both editors. Customers will want an
editor.
Can folks here suggest other ways I might try to crack ibsh?
What vulnerabilities can you imagine?
Thanks,
