Description

The libcap-ng library is intended to make programming with posix capabilities much easier than the traditional libcap library. It includes utilities that can analyse all currently running applications and print out any capabilities and whether or not it has an open ended bounding set. An open bounding set without the securebits "NOROOT" flag will allow full capabilities escalation for applications retaining uid 0 simply by calling execve.

The included utilities are designed to let administrators and developers spot applications from various ways that may be running with too much privilege. For example, any investigation should start with network facing applications since they would be prime targets for intrusion. The netcap program will check all running applications and display the results.
