similar to: BUG - lmtp multiple recipients fail - setuid issue?

Hello, I am having a problem with the lmtp delivery of mail addressed to multiple recipients. ?The first recipient receives the mail correctly but the next recipients do not. ?ltmp apparently tries to create a link from the subsequent recipients' mail store to the first recipient mail store and fails. This returns 451 smtp codes to the sender which then resends at some later time. Please see

I'm trying to create a setuid Perl script (yes, I am aware about the security implications), but am getting this error: % cat testsetuid.pl #!/usr/bin/perl -UT print "My real user id is $< but my effective user id is $>\n"; exit(0); % ./testsetuid.pl Can't do setuid (cannot exec sperl) I am using the stock Perl that came with CentOS 4.5.

Hi, I dunno much about exploiting, but I was wondering about the setuid root program 'opiepasswd' to use one-time-passwords. When having a seed of (null) and a sequence of -1, I get a segfault.

Hi there, some of the recent holes discussed on this list, and David Holland''s suggestion for a utmp manager daemon got me thinking. I ended up coding a sample program that demonstrates how a `resource manager'' can be used to allow applications access to certain resources while not giving them any privileges. The sample program is a primitve modem manager that hands out open

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I trying to create an automated backup from one machine to the other via SSH. I have setup ssh keys and so on, so everything is pretty much working. The only thing is, I am trying to perserve file ownership. I don't want to use ssh keys w/o a password (for obvious reasons), so I what I did was this: I setup a chrooted account called

version: rsync v2.6.1 (+ a minor, unrelated patch). I'm rsyncing files (not as root) and am happy (indeed, for what I want, delighted) that the files at the target side end up owned by the account doing the rsync. However, I've found that if I have a setuid/setgid file on the source side, the target file ends up setuid/setgid too (but under a different id!). This happens whether

When i go to Yast Control center i can see that the user log in is set to /bin/bash and this is the default. Is this what you meant? Where else to find smbmnt?

I have combed google for days searching for an answer to this but cannot find anything anywhere, I'm hoping that posting to this list will get me the solution. I have FC4 running dovecot v1.0.beta7 to serve my POP3 (I had to install v1.0.beta7 because it's on a x86_64 and I need mysql support). It runs great for about two hours, after which I start getting the resource

Hi, I just configured my Postfix installation to deliver via Dovecot LDA. But because I use separate uids for virtual domains I had to set deliver to be setuid root. Altough I find this as frequent answer to this problem with deliver LDA I am not a 100% sure - basically because I try to avoid root setuids as much as I can. What should be better solution - to have all mailboxes with one owner or

Hi! I've set up postfix(2.4.1) + dovecot(1.0-cvs) + dovecot-lda(1.0-cvs). Dovecot's deliver is running as vmail:vmail (according to postfix's master.cf). Now the problem (when receiving mail): deliver(leva): auth input: leva deliver(leva): auth input: uid=8006 deliver(leva): auth input: gid=8000 deliver(leva): auth input: home=/var/mail/virtual/leva deliver(leva): setuid(8006)

Running dovecot 1.2.4 on FreeBSD using Postfix. Everything works fine normally, but deliver is executable by world. This is not normally a problem, as I don't run deliver SetUID root. But for whatever reason, when deliver is called by something that IS SetUID root I get the following error: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver must not be both world-executable and setuid-root. This

With service imap { client_limit = 5, service_count = 0 }, when the auth process crashes the existing imap processes cannot reconnect to the auth-master socket because they have long ago dropped root privileges. Is the right solution to this: (1) change the perms on the auth-master socket so processes running as vmail:vmail can connect to it, or (2) change the code so that multi-client imap

Dear all, I'm running Samba version 3.0.4 (this is what comes with Solaris 10) on a Solaris machine. For WORM file system support, a new "Snaplock"-mechanism has been implemented into SAM-FS. This mechanism uses the setting of the "setuid" bit (e. g.: "chmod 4000 <filename>") to trigger a file to become a WORM file (i. e. it cannot be modified / deleted

Hello list, I wonder if it is a really bad idea to setuid bit on samba daemons to make them start with root privileges? I need it in an embedded systems where the daemons are started by a non root user and I don't have access to sudo etc and we all know that smbd should run under root. Cheers, henke
