Gilbert Song created MESOS-6504:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Use 'geteuid()' for the root privileges check.
Key: MESOS-6504
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-6504
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Gilbert Song
Assignee: Gilbert Song
Currently, parts of code in Mesos check the root privileges using os::user() to
compare to "root", which is not sufficient, since it compares the real user.
When people change the mesos binary by 'setuid root', the process may not have
the right permission to execute.
We should check the effective user id instead in our code.
