Summary: [RFE] more pluggable way of setting pesign permissions

Whiteboard:
Fixed In Version: pesign-0.109-10.el7 Doc Type: Known Issue
Doc Text:
The *pesign* key database requires manually changing permissions to enable improved access permission controls The *pesign* key database, which is used to sign UEFI binaries, now offers a more generalized method of setting database access permissions. You can now configure permissions using system-wide key databases, and means that any user or group can now be granted access. However, a known issue in permission settings in *pesign* currently prevents the aforementioned new feature from working. To enable the improved access control, you must change the permissions to *pesign* manually: chmod 0660 /etc/pki/pesign/* chmod 0770 /etc/pki/pesign After setting these permissions, the improved access control will become available. If you do not perform these steps, *pesign* behavior will be identical to previous releases.

Description Pat Riehecky 2014-09-12 14:44:38 UTC
Created attachment 936989 [details]
add code for behavior

Description of problem: The sysvinit script provided with pesign sets ACLS for the pesign/socket file for kojibuilder:kojibuilder.  The systemd unit, however, does not.

I've built a more general solution for both the sysvinit and systemd unit that should allow for greater flexibility and compat behavior. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):pesign-0.109-6.el7


How reproducible:100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1.search for way to set acls under systemd unit like the sysvinit script
2.unable to locate
3.

Actual results:
the EPEL6 package sets ACLS for kojibuilder, but the EL7 package does not and has no provided solution

Expected results:
similar behavior between sysvinit script and systemd unit

Comment 8 Radka Brychtova 2016-09-29 15:58:25 UTC
During the testing we found a mistake:

there is simple patch like:

chmod 0660 /etc/pki/pesign/* ; chmod 0770 /etc/pki/pesign

without this change this bug is not fixed, it works the same way as it works before.
