Hello everybody,
I found some errors in "security_check.sh". Here is my list of fixes
and attached you can find a patch against "msec-0.9-14mdk" rpm
-----8<------------------------------------------------------>8------
* Files that should not be owned by someone else or readable:
-> added ".gnupg/secring.gpg" as Mandrake uses GNUPG as default
* Files that should not be owned by someone else or writeable:
-> replaced "-" by "." in awk-script beause ".ssh" is a directory
* Check home directories. Directories should not be owned by
someone else or writeable:
-> replaced "-" by "d" in awk-script beause "~" is a directory
-> replaced username-check by uid-check (avoids false output
by usernames > 8 char, e.g. "fetchmail" != "fetchmai" )
-> removed "~lp" and "~mail" from group-check as their homedirs
are group writeable
-----8<------------------------------------------------------>8------
I think it's time to give MandrakeUpdate some work ;-)
