Issue #12336 has been updated by Patrick Carlisle. Status changed from Unreviewed to Accepted
---------------------------------------- Bug #12336: executing system commands may fail if user's PATH contains a tilde https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12336 Author: Chris Price Status: Accepted Priority: Low Assignee: Chris Price Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: As a result of the changes from #5224, we are now unsetting the HOME environment variable when we execute system commands from within puppet. (This applies mostly to the Exec provider, but may also affect other providers that issue system commands.) An exception will be thrown if the following conditions are met: * User's PATH contains a literal '~' character * The command to be executed is not specified via an absolute path Should be reproducible by adding, e.g., "~/bin" to PATH and then running the spec/unit/util_spec.rb tests. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
