Description Kai Engert (:kaie) (inactive account) 2017-12-08 12:41:53 UTC

Today it's possible to use write access through p11-kit-trust.so to write to the "Default Trust" token, which results in data being written into the /usr directory. (Requires root permission.)

I think it should never write to /usr, because:
- /usr may be read only on many systems
- /usr isn't supposed to get local system configuration,
  as the name implies it should limit to the default configuration
  (installed as part of RPM packages)

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2018-02-20 15:26:56 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 28 development cycle.
Changing version to '28'.

Comment 2 Daiki Ueno 2018-03-01 10:21:31 UTC

This should be fixed in p11-kit-0.23.10-1.
