Abstract |
The security of Xwindows is usually divided into authentication/authorization of connections, and authorization of Xclient interactions [5]. The first issue has been well addressed in research through mechanisms such as xhost and xauth1. In this paper we discuss the approaches to the last issue: one of authorization. We present a taxonomy of different approaches and discuss the effectiveness of a lightweight mechanism which we proposed. |
