Package: coreutils Version: 6.10-6 Severity: minor File: /usr/bin/id It is not always so funny to see someday that user nobody have administrator's security context under SELinux:
# id nobody uid=65534(nobody) gid=65534(nogroup) groups=65534(nogroup) context=admin_u:sysadm_r:sysadm_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 I suggest that behavior be documented in both manpage and info. Or 'context=' changed to 'current_process_context=' when id invoked with argument, or displaying of current context is disabled in that case (since it have no sense). By the way, when invoked with -Z, id refuses to show context if username is supplied. # id -Z nobody id: cannot print security context when user specified -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-spg (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R (charmap=KOI8-R) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.47-2 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libselinux1 2.0.65-5 SELinux shared libraries coreutils recommends no packages. coreutils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
