This bug and bug #1619888 are similar but different. This bug deals with SNAP_USER_DATA and chowning to the calling user. The seccomp arg filtering feature has landed and fixing this in security policy is planned soon now that various other dev work for snappy GA is being completed.
@Lars - your comment really about adding users to the system with which snaps can then drop privileges and therefore chown files. That work is planned but needs design. ** Summary changed: - ubuntu-core doesn't allow sed -i (fchown syscall) + please allow chown for calling user (eg, for files in SNAP_USER_DATA) ** Summary changed: - please allow chown for calling user (eg, for files in SNAP_USER_DATA) + please allow chown for calling user (eg, for files in SNAP_USER_DATA or chowning to root) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581310 Title: please allow chown for calling user (eg, for files in SNAP_USER_DATA or chowning to root) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1581310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
