WARNING: SCO-Xenix game "hack", setuid root NO DANGER, OOOOPS

[David Schanen]

   It's probably setuid so that the program can update a score file.  The
score file should have protections set so that noone can modify it without
running the program(setuid and owned by 'user'.)  If you are really concerned
you can make a games user (and possibly group) for all the games stuff.

Ps  What is the newsgroup sub.security?
