Ensure statd gets started if required when non-root
|
|
user mounts an NFS filesystem.
|
|
|
|
The first time an NFS filesystem is mounted, we start statd from
|
|
/sbin/mount.nfs. If this first time is a non-root user doing the
|
|
mount, (thanks to e.g. the 'users' option in /etc/fstab)
|
|
then we need to be sure that the 'setuid' status from mount.nfs
|
|
is inherited through to rpc.statd so that it runs as root.
|
|
|
|
There are two places where we loose our setuid status due to the shell
|
|
(/bin/sh) discarding.
|
|
|
|
1/ mount.nfs uses "system" to run /usr/sbin/start-statd. This runs a
|
|
shell which is likely to drop privileges. So change that code to use
|
|
'fork' and 'execl' explicitly.
|
|
2/ start-statd is a shell script. To convince the shell to allow the
|
|
program to run in privileged mode, we need to add a "-p" flag.
|
|
|
|
We could just call setuid(getuid()) at some appropriate time, and it
|
|
might be worth doing that as well, however I think that getting
|
|
rid of 'system()' is a good idea and once that is done, the
|
|
adding of '-p' is trivial and sufficient.
