Jonathan,

Yes that is exactly the case. Look inside he unit filre, systemd-udevd.service. 
It contains lines like:

PrivateMounts=yes
MemoryDenyWriteExecute=yes
RestrictRealtime=yes
RestrictAddressFamilies=AF_UNIX AF_NETLINK AF_INET AF_INET6
SystemCallFilter=@system-service @module @raw-io
SystemCallErrorNumber=EPERM
SystemCallArchitectures=native
LockPersonality=yes

I think the SystemCallFilter is your culplrit here. Removing it will probably 
make your script work, but it may also remove important protection.

Subject: [systemd-devel] udev script can't resolve host name


Hi,

If I understand correctly, this mailing list can be used for questions about 
udev as well as about systemd. If that's not correct, somebody please let me 
know and I will go elsewhere (and if you know where that "elsewhere" should be, 
please let me know, that would be helpful!); I don't mean to use the list 
incorrectly.

I want to call a webhook inside a script run via a RUN directive in a udev rule.

When I try to do this, curl says it's unable to resolve the host name of the 
URL I am asking it to fetch.

To collect more data about the cause of this issue, I also tried doing a "ping 
-c 1 8.8.8.8" inside the script, and it gets, "sendmsg: Operation not 
permitted."

I assume this means udev scripts are running inside some sort of restricted 
environment or something, but I can't figure out what controls the restrictions 
on that environment, whether I can loosen them, or how.

I'm on Ubuntu 18.04.

Any advice?

Thank you,

Jonathan Kamens
