Proposal: Limited File Write Category

[Frissi0n]

Currently all file writes are kept in the single category File Write.

However not all file writes are equal. Some, such as cp, dd, and mv give you full control over the content of the file to be written, which is a powerful primitive and highly exploitable.

Whereas some, such as nmap #153, by the author's own definition "I've yet to come up with a way to overwrite the contents of the system file according to what we want,"

I propose the creation of a Limited File Write category, that allows us to more effectively categorize file writes into bins that either

• let you control the full content (File Write),
• vs bins that let you control partial content (Limited or Partial File Write).

I'd be happy to help categorize should this go ahead.
