Just found this, because I also noticed the debsums error. A quick look in the changelog finds this: > procps (2:3.3.16-1ubuntu1) focal; urgency=low > [...] > * Dropped changes, no longer needed: > ... > - 10-link-restrictions.conf: this is redundant with link-protect.conf > from Debian. > * debian/procps.maintscript: handle migration of link-protect.conf from > /etc to /usr. > > -- Steve Langasek <steve.langa...@ubuntu.com> Thu, 13 Feb 2020 22:53:02 > -0800
But apparently that file never arrived downstream? Neither find /usr ... nor apt-file search can find it. Having had a look at the contents of said file by opening the .deb archive has me a bit worried: > # These settings eliminate an entire class of security vulnerability: > # time-of-check-time-of-use cross-privilege attacks using guessable > # filenames (generally seen as "/tmp file race" vulnerabilities). This could very well warrant a bump in severity, given there are security implications. A simple workaround is to just copy that file manually into /etc/sysctl.d under a different name, so postinst can't find it, should it try to murder it again. :P Of course it won't solve the debsums error but it solves the bigger problem of the file missing entirely. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867537 Title: 10-link-restrictions.conf missing - removed by postinst To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/procps/+bug/1867537/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
