Re: [systemd-devel] Port 231 security patch to 213
Christian, Found the fix here: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/4240 This seems to work, I no longer have an issue even with the endless loop option used to create the problem. -Jay On 10/24/16 11:11, Christian Hesse wrote: Jay Burger on Mon, 2016/10/24 10:54: Hi, I need some help porting the security patch released in version 231 back to version 213.

Re: [systemd-devel] Applications using mulitple fork() in SystemD
Hi Andrei, Thanks for the quick reply. *"Most simple answer - it tries to find C in PATH and PATH in* *your login session is different from PATH systemd uses.* *"* I have all the binaries placed in a single environment file and my unit file includes that environment file. So ideally it should take all the binaries from PATH environment variable right. -- Regards, Raghavendra. H.

This is outside of scope of systemd. You need to debug B why it fails to start C.

[systemd-devel] Applications using mulitple fork() in SystemD
Hi All, I'm a newbie and exploring Systemd init system and I have a doubt regarding how multiple fork() from an application is handled in SystemD environment. I have application of process A, which forks process B and B in turn forks another process C like A -> B -> C. *My systemd service file will spawn the application and starts process A and I can see that only process B is forked but not process C.* Below given is my unit file. *[Unit]* *Description=Multiple fork* *[Service]* *ExecStart=/etc/A* *[Install]* *WantedBy=multi-user.target* Instead of running in a unit file, if I run my application manually all the processes will spawned. For Eg : == cd /etc ./A & ---> this will cause all the 3 process to be spawned Can anyone let me know how to resolve this issue in SystemD ? Like *"Type=forking", *do we have any other option which helps in achieving this problem statement. -- Regards, Raghavendra. H.

What exactly are you referring to?
Does this help? (There is no v213 tree, but v214 is next.)

Re: [systemd-devel] Port 231 security patch to 213
Christian, I am using a Yocto distribution "daisy" which is on version 211, they have provided recipe updates to what they call systemd 213. I am referring to the patch as discussed on the following site: https://threatpost.com/hack-crashes-linux-distros-with-48-characters-of-code/121052/ This claims the problem began is version 209. I found the systemd-231-security_fix-1.patch on this page but am not sure if it applies. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/downloads/systemd/ Thanks for your help. -Jay On 10/24/16 11:11, Christian Hesse wrote: Jay Burger on Mon, 2016/10/24 10:54: Hi, I need some help porting the security patch released in version 231 back to version 213.

Hi, I need some help porting the security patch released in version 231 back to version 213. If this is not the correct place for this question can someone point me to the proper forum? Updating my system from 213 to 231 is not an option for me at this time. If anyone knows if this has been done can you point me to the patch?
