This is actually a security bug. A user named "skivdal" will be able to do whatever he likes to do when the superuser runs yum. ShXt, once again this bad bugzilla search tool fooled me. This bug has already been reported a number of times in the night (cf 136172). Sorry for that. E. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 136172 *** Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041012 Firefox/0.10.1 Description of problem: /usr/bin/yum contains: sys.path.insert(0, '/home/skvidal/cvs/yum-HEAD') as a consequence, yummain.py from /usr/share/yum-cli is not found. yum does not run ; given the importance of yum, this is critical. The concerned line should read: sys.path.insert(0, '/usr/share/yum-cli') Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-2.1.8-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Type ``yum'' on the command line ; that's all. 2. 3. Actual Results: [root@tate thome]# yum Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 6, in ? import yummain ImportError: No module named yummain Expected Results: not this. An error as I haven't given any command, but not this sort of crash Additional info: Here is some additional info from rpm -qi Name : yum Version : 2.1.8 Release : 1 Build Date: Mon 18 Oct 2004 07:47:52 AM CEST Build Host: tweety.build.redhat.com Size : 649456
