Quoting Seth Arnold (1244...@bugs.launchpad.net): > Serge, what does " After this version, respect the user's choice." mean?
It means if the user manually chmods /var/lib/lxc to 755, we don't change it again after this. (Except, see below) > Does this mean someone upgrading from e.g. 12.04.3 lxc packages to 14.04 > lxc packages -- skipping this update -- would have the 'unsafe' > permissions? > > Or will this check be carried before to e.g. 14.04 lxc packages and only > execute once, allowing an administrator to undo the change? The test for package version will be kept until at least after 14.04. Since the trusty lxc version checks for the 1.0.0~alpha2-0ubuntu5 versio, an lts-to-lts upgrade will get this check. Which sort of belies my statement that user choices will be respected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1244635 Title: setuid executables in a container may compromise security on the host To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1244635/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
