Migrations, superusers, security and least privileges
...to know if anyone is interested in working with me to improve it (or knows an existing way to accomplish the same thing). Here''s the scenario: - I always create specific database users that only have CRUD priveleges, and run my web apps with these users - I need to log in with a superuser to run migrations and other test functions (like clone_structure) - I never want to store a superuser database password, encrypted or not, in any of my database.yml files - I don''t want to have to modify database.yml everytime I deploy, type in superuser credentials, migrate...

Support for deferrable constraints in PostgreSQLAdapter#disable_referential_integrity
I recently submitted a pull-request (https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/10939) to address a bug in PostgreSQLAdapter#disable_referential_integrity related to how the existing code behaves in a transaction when the PostgreSQL user account lacks superuser privileges on the PostgreSQL instance. While this permits the code to function without crashing, it doesn''t actually make #disable_referential_integrity work unless the user has superuser privileges (which apply to the entire PostgreSQL instance). There may be perfectly valid reasons for...

Setting up Security Groups
...her group of sip phones have the right to make local & toll free calls only. The outbound dialing is broken down into 4 contexts in extensions.conf; outbound-local, outbound-toll, outbound-tollfree, and outbound-longdistance. The sip users are set up in 3 contexts in extensions.conf; sip-superuser, sip-operator and sip-basic. Under default context in extensions.conf, I have an include statement for the outbound calling. To make sure they all worked, originally I had the include statement for the sip user groups also under the default context. Everyone could dial every type of call, whic...

Test Failure OpenSSH 7.1 P2 on HPE NSE for key-commands
...ations. The code that checks this is in > auth2-pubkey.c:subprocess() which calls auth.c:auth_secure_path(). > > What are the file permissions on /var/run/keycommand_SUPER.SUPER and > its parent directories? Did you run the test with SUDO=sudo? Where did > SUPER.SUPER come from? SUPERUSER ends up being 65535, which is root on this platform. SUPER.SUPER is the actual name of root. /var and /var/run are both 755, while /var/run/keycommand_SUPER.SUPER is 644. We do have to run the whole test suite under sudo anyway.

SMB2 CREATE + ACCESS_SYSTEM_SECURITY
Can anybody provide the expected response to an SMB2 CREATE request that includes ACCESS_SYSTEM_SECURITY in the DesiredAccess mask? I?m particularly interested in cases where the SMB client is connected as an authenticated user with administrative (superuser) privileges on the share, and has made the request on a directory. Should such a client expect full (read/change) access to the SACL (under any conditions)? The question above is theoretical in nature. Practically speaking, does any version of the Samba server respond correctly to the request desc...

Reposted from Superuser - Installing Ruby on Rails on Ubuntu 10.04: A Living Nightmare
I''m reposting this here from my original post on Superuser[1], to hopefully get more relevant feedback from more experienced RoR users. I need to get a RoR environment up and running, because I have a client that needs some RoR work done on her website. Although I''m new to RoR, I''m a quick learner and was expecting installing and setting...

Multiple grub2 Users with Passwords
Hello All, I am trying to set multiple users with passwords for modifying grub2 menu entries at boot. I know I can set a "root" user grub2 password with grub2-setpassword. I have also been able to make a grub2 user password using the grub2-mkpasswd-pbkdf2 command and adding ??? set superusers="user1" to the /etc/grub.d/40_custom file. However, I have multiple user administrators that will possibly need access to grub at boot (i.e. to boot to single user mode to fix a broken configuration file). I've tried generating two different passwords with grub2-mkpasswd-pbkdf2 and...

Problem Description Due to a 4.4BSD VM system problem, it is possible to memory-map a read-only descriptor to a character device in read-write mode. III. Impact The hole can be used by members of group kmem to gain superuser privileges. It also allows the superuser to lower the system securelevel. IV. Workaround No workaround is known. V.

kern.chroot_allow_open_directories
...The chroot(2) man page describes a sysctl called 'kern.chroot_allow_open_directories' which controls whether a process can chroot() and is already subject to the chroot() syscall. It seems that this sysctl can be trivially changed from within a chroot'd process (ie: if that process has superuser privileges). Is this sysctl meant to prevent breaking out of a chroot? Or am I missing the point of 'kern.chroot_allow_open_directories'?

creating fixtures for has_many :through

But I WOULD expect that you could write a user_roles.yaml file to make explicit associations, alon...

2.6 Kernel Differences
I am running CentOS 4, and trying to get an unsupported program running on it. This program makes a lot of socket calls and has to run as an unprivileged user. I think I remember reading somewhere that the 2.6 kernel requires superuser rights for some socket operations. Is there a way to disable this in the 2.6 kernel? Which ports require the superuser rights? Thanks, Doug
