output of "strace uucp -C fi_uir.asc t17007!~/
notice the return values to the get*uid*() calls. I can't tell how uucp lost
it's suid during program execution from this output, but it apparently did.
this helps me - user must be in uucp group - chmod g+w /var/spool/uucppublic |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Description of problem: $ uucp -C fi_uir.asc t17007!~/ uucp: stat (/home/bms/tmp/rjc/fi_uir.asc): Permission denied ... which is a misleading error message since strace indicates that uucp is unable to open /var/spool/uucp/t17007/SEQF: $ ls -l /var/spool/uucp/t17007/SEQF -rw------- 1 uucp uucp 4 Oct 12 10:01 /var/spool/uucp/t17007/SEQF strace indicates that the reason it can't is because uucp seems to not have the uucp uid at that point (it has mine instead). But uucp is definitely suid: $ ls -l /usr/bin/uucp -r-sr-xr-x 1 uucp uucp 1305254 Jan 25 2003 /usr/bin/uucp Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): uucp-1.06.1-47 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to "uucp -C" a file from your system to another system 2. 3. Actual Results: uucp failed with an error message and the copy didn't happen. Expected Results: uucp copies the file to the spool directory and then transfers the file to the remote system.
