Description Miloslav Trmač 2007-04-20 21:31:53 EDT

Description of problem:
When config files reference file paths, the file permission checks performed on
the files don't match the error messages used when the checks fail.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
audit-1.5.2-1.fc7

Comment 1 Miloslav Trmač 2007-04-20 21:34:23 EDT

Created attachment 153231 [details]
Modify the permission checks

The attached patch (only compile-tested) makes the permission checks consistent
with the messages.  I was not sure what the permission requirements actually
are, so the changes are just my best guess at the intended semantics.

I applied a variation of this patch to 1.5.3. Thanks for spotting the problem.

Comment 3 Steve Grubb 2007-05-02 13:16:17 EDT

audit-1.5.3 was built into rawhide and should solve this problem. Thanks for
reporting it.
