@juliank @nik @pid_eins This isn't a new privilege escalation mechanism. All this option does is make some already existing features more easily accessible. I encourage you to take a look https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/39495 to see how trivial the PR introducing --empower was.

@daandemeyer @juliank @pid_eins As I repeated multiple times, my criticism is based in *the very fact* that the features of --empower are advertised behind a simple, innocent-lloking option.
