merged Merged what? I don't see any commit marked for PR7062, and no change to this code. Translator-side code is in, but runtime-side code can't be quite a simple, since we must not permit unprivileged users to load any old module via an environment variable setting. So bug #5163 may need to be worked on with this issue in mind to cover all cases. It might be sufficient just to have staprun clear SYSTEMTAP_RUNTIME when setuid as it deos for SYSTEMTAP_STAPRUN. commit 73dc0c7 does the setuid-sensitive unsetenv suggested above. committed |
