[Vserver] Does adding tty and pty devices to a Vserver compromise security?

Hello,

I'm running a perl script inside of a linux vserver, and the script
requires access to tty and pty devices. However /dev/MAKEDEV and mknod
cannot create pty devices from within a vserver. Therefore I am adding
pty devices to a vserver by way of the host operating system:

[vserver host] cp -a /dev/tty* /vservers/my_vserver/dev/
[vserver host] cp -a /dev/pty* /vservers/my_vserver/dev/

Does this compromise the security of the vserver in any way? Is there
a way to add devices from within a vserver itself?

Thanks in advance,
EKC
