Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-97
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The included cronjobs, especially the run-parts from /etc/crontab
shouldn't be run with the starting directory of /root
perl -npi~ -e 's%run-parts% cd / && run-parts%' /etc/crontab
should be sufficient for /etc/crontab; the other included cronjobs can
be modified accordingly.
Rationale: SELinux logs unallowed access attempts to /root for security
reasons. Since these scripts don't need access there they shouldn't
accidentially access it. Maybe setting HOME=/tmp/cron or something like
that is even better.
