Description Robin Green 2011-03-03 11:01:01 UTC

Description of problem:
The same filename, ~/seremote, is used by each X sandbox, so theoretically if two sandboxes were started at the same time, there could be a race condition. Maybe create a secure temporary file instead?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
policycoreutils-sandbox-2.0.85-12.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible:
Haven't tried

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2011-03-03 14:06:33 UTC

~/seremote is copied into the different TEMPHOMEDIR so it is not the same seremote.

Comment 2 Robin Green 2011-03-03 14:48:27 UTC

Ah yes. Silly me.
