RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Bala.FA 2013-07-29 10:50:24 UTC
errata tool reports secalert for glusterfs-fuse

File /usr/bin/fusermount-glusterfs on x86_64 is setuid root but is not on the setxid whitelist

Comment 1 Amar Tumballi 2013-07-29 18:04:16 UTC
Bala, looks like '/usr/bin/fusermount' from package 'fuse' also has same setxid bits enabled. We just need fusermount-glusterfs to be added to the whitelist then.

Comment 2 Amar Tumballi 2013-08-23 18:24:01 UTC
Issue fixed with fixing the modes.

Comment 4 Amar Tumballi 2013-10-09 05:22:04 UTC
Steps to check:

On any glusterfs version (not on RHS or on RHS, before glusterfs-3.4.0.10rhs)
amar@ganaka:~/work/rhs-glusterfs$ ls -l /usr/bin/fusermount-glusterfs
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 102192 Oct  5 00:03 /usr/local/bin/fusermount-glusterfs

with latest rhs, you don't see the setuid set on the file. (ie, no 's' in the mode bits).

Comment 5 Gowrishankar Rajaiyan 2013-10-09 06:23:48 UTC
[root@dhcp201-162 ~]# ls -l /usr/bin/fusermount-glusterfs
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 28304 Oct  8 11:35 /usr/bin/fusermount-glusterfs
[root@dhcp201-162 ~]# 

[root@dhcp201-162 ~]# rpm -qf  /usr/bin/fusermount-glusterfs
glusterfs-fuse-3.4.0.34rhs-1.el6.x86_64
[root@dhcp201-162 ~]# 

Verified.
