[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/dhcp: add security options to DHCP server

[Yann E. MORIN]

Andreas, All,

On 2022-04-28 09:46 +0200, Andreas Ehmanns spake thusly:
> I was trying to make the ISC dhcp daemon more secure by using the
> -user and -group option to let dhcp server run as non-root user.
> Unfortunately these options are not available when building ISC dhcp
> server with buildroot.
> The reason is, that the configure script must be called with the
> option --enable-paranoia to activate these options. But this option
> is not set in the dhcp.mk file.
> 
> To be backward compatible I added a new option to the dhcp's Config.in
> file to enable this feature when desired and parse this option in
> dhcp.mk.
