privsh

Release License

A fairly dodgy interpreter which will allow you to run setuid shell scripts. Due to various race conditions, setuid shell scripts don't actually run as setuid on Linux (on BSDs they do because of the /dev/fd interface resolving the race conditions mentioned).

As a result if you wanted to hack together a shell script and make it setuid, you were out of luck. Until now.
