Package: hal
Version: 0.4.2-5
Severity: normal
When a media of unknown (to hald) type is inserted into a dvd-ram drive,
hald polls the device without closing it. This makes it impossible to
remove the media. hald needs to be killed to open the tray. To
reproduce:
- insert any dvd-ram into the drive
- save the first 1 MB of data: dd if=/dev/dvdram bs=1M count=1 of=data.saved
- zero out this block: dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=1 of=/dev/dvdram
- open/close the tray
- check device usage: fuser /dev/dvdram
-> hald
- device is locked
- kill hald to open
- repair the dvd-ram: dd if=data.saved bs=1M count=1 of=/dev/dvdram
Though this example seems to be of minor practical importance, this leads
to a more serious problem if the dvd-ram contains a device-mapper encrypted
filesystem. However, as you need super user privileges anyways to mount
such an encrypted volume, you are able to kill hald as well.
