Description Florian Weimer 2013-01-28 11:31:31 UTC
Description of problem:

The file /usr/sbin/uuidd should be owned by root.root:

-rwxr-xr-x. 1 uuidd uuidd 28464 Dec  3 18:54 /usr/sbin/uuidd


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

uuidd-2.22.1-2.4.fc18.x86_64

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ls -l /usr/sbin/uuidd
  
Actual results:

File is owned by uuidd.uuidd.

Expected results:

File is owned by root.root.

Additional info:

The systemd unit file drops permissions before calling the binary file, so there is no privilege escalation uuidd -> root.
