[Bug 987707] Re: gvim in Precise can't connect to ibus and takes a long time to load

2013-01-04 Thread DaveB
Since for me the problem is just running gvim from a terminal, I have a 
workaround for that:
Add this to your ~/.bashrc file

function gvim() {
  nohup /usr/bin/gvim -f "$@" >& /dev/null
}

[Bug 858867] Re: XMLRPC allows unauthed users access to various methods (which it shouldn't)

2011-10-10 Thread daveb
Right - well the impact / if this is even a security "bug" is going to
be up to the user. Personally, I don't see why the methods are exposed
without good reason - is it a requirement that they are exposed?

[Bug 861261] [NEW] restore nested login in gdm

2011-09-28 Thread daveb
Public bug reported:

Hi, I am a long time user of gdm nested logins. However, they do not
exist in gdm3 :(  . Before I created new logins via the command
"gdmflexiserver -n" which would bring up another gdm login window inside
a Xephyr container. This functionality is rather useful, partly because
there isn't an apparmor XACE implementation at the present time and
party because it is (in general) a useful thing :p

There is a bug filed in the upstream at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624370 with a patch to
restore the functionality it would be awesome if this was applied in
ubuntu!

[Bug 826672] Re: /tmp debug file sillyness

2011-08-16 Thread daveb
Well the bug is that on systems which do not run with the YAMA kernel
patch(i.e. most non-ubuntu systems) the use of the debug file in the
/tmp directory could result in extra unwanted data being appended to
$random file(if /tmp/dhclient-script.debug is actually a symbolic link).

IMHO recording the debug output to syslog would be a better idea.

Public bug reported:

dhcp3 (also known as isc-dhcp) when you enable 'debug' (set RUN="yes")
in  the /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/debug  file blindly appends
data to whatever is at /tmp/dhclient-script.debug ... this seems rather
silly.

[Bug 805363] [NEW] this just looks "sus"

2011-07-04 Thread daveb
Public bug reported:

I did a grep in /usr/sbin for "python" and found hpssd. 
There is one function which just looks odd.

It is the following one:
# Qt4 only
def handle_hpdio_event(event, bytes_written):
log.debug("Reading %d bytes from hpdio pipe..." % bytes_written)
total_read, data = 0, ''

while True:
r, w, e = select.select([r3], [], [r3], 0.0)
if not r: break

x = os.read(r3, PIPE_BUF)
if not x: break

data = ''.join([data, x])
total_read += len(x)

if total_read == bytes_written: break

log.debug("Read %d bytes" % total_read)

if total_read == bytes_written:
dq = loads(data)

if check_device(event.device_uri) == ERROR_SUCCESS:
devices[event.device_uri].dq = dq.copy()

handle_event(device.Event(event.device_uri, '',
dq.get('status-code', STATUS_PRINTER_IDLE), prop.username, 0, 
''))

send_toolbox_event(event, EVENT_DEVICE_UPDATE_REPLY)


At the top of this python module it imported loads from cPickle(from cPickle 
import loads, HIGHEST_PROTOCOL).
The function might get called if the event code is an 
EVENT_DEVICE_UPDATE_REPLY[1]
The data that is loaded comes from r3 which is a global set in run() to be 
read_pipe3. 
(the comment in the function definition of run() states the following about 
read_pipe3 "read pipe from hpdio").

I am assuming that hpdio is the _physical_ hardware ... maybe it isn't
and the pickle loads call is on data which was dumped safely by a
trusted entity ?


[1]
(see the function  handle_event  for the rest of the context regarding the 
following code
elif event.event_code == EVENT_DEVICE_UPDATE_REPLY:
bytes_written = int(more_args[1])
handle_hpdio_event(event, bytes_written)
)

Added this line to /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules
