Description Daniel Walsh 2010-10-25 13:18:08 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #646443 +++

Description of problem:

Please remove setuid setup of files in your package with file capabilities.

This is to satisfy the F15 feature.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/RemoveSETUID

An example of how this was done for X is.


%if 0%{?fedora} < 15
%define Xorgperms %attr(4711, root, root)
%else
%define Xorgperms %attr(0711,root,root) %caps(cap_sys_admin,cap_sys_rawio,cap_dac_override=pe)
%endif

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2011-04-05 13:22:58 UTC

Any movement on this?

Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2011-07-12 22:36:34 UTC

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 3 Charles R. Anderson 2011-07-12 23:22:35 UTC

Putting a note in here for myself to keep track of #706682 for SUID-less and CAP_NET_RAW-less kernel support and check if anything else in fping needs SUID.

Comment 4 Jon Stanley 2012-02-09 16:31:19 UTC

Any progress here?

Apparently fping is hard-coded to check if your UID is 0 and if not bail (I haven't looked at the code myself).

Comment 5 Charles R. Anderson 2012-02-18 20:18:38 UTC

Closing, since F17 is using cap_net_raw instead of set-uid root.  Will backport to F16 as well.

Comment 6 Jon Stanley 2012-02-25 19:35:24 UTC

Is it possible to backport to EL6 as well?
