Description Jiri Denemark 2013-11-21 10:47:05 UTC

Description of problem:

Libvirt now comes with a new SUID binary called virt-login-shell, which is used to connect a user to an LXC container when they log in. Since the binary is SUID, we would like it to be owned by a dedicated group so that it can only be used by users that have been chosen by an administrator to use virt-login-shell as their shell. It's ownership and permissions would then look like the following:

-rwsr-x---  root    virtlogin   /usr/bin/virt-login-shell

Ideally, the new group would be called "virtlogin".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

libvirt-1.1.4

Comment 1 Ondrej Vasik 2013-11-22 10:43:43 UTC

Discussed with Jirka, static allocation is not required here. He will keep the dynamic allocation. If required, this has to be handled via FPC ticket anyway ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:UsersAndGroups#Soft_static_allocation ). Closing NOTABUG.
