If so, then this change introduces the possibility for normal users to send privileged commands to connector based subsystems, even if they may not be able to bind() to suitable sockets to receive any replies. Am I missing something?Yup, connector is very async at that place, but I wonder why the hell I ever made that decision. I believe we can replace it with pure sync call of the registered connector callback, since netlink is synchronous and no one has any problem with it.
Are you going to do this or do you want me to take care of it?
