Hi,

This may be an odd request.  The proprietary fglrx driver has an
info disclosure flaw in one of it's shell scripts [0].  It passes the
xauth secret cookie in an insecure manner (such that it's exposed to
prying eyes in the output of ps for example).

Ping, can we get an id for this one?

Thanks,
Mike
