Package: gnupg Version: 1.4.9-2 Severity: normal Hi,
I have an program at work which is used to automate some tasks related to debian package management (automating some checks and uploading packages to a local repository). To avoid permission issues, the executable is setuid to a user which is the owner of the repositories : [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/ldi -rwsr-sr-x 1 debinstall debinstall 4448 fév 6 11:02 /usr/bin/ldi It worked fine until recently, when the signature checks ran by the programm started failing with a very weird error message: gpg: Ohhhh jeeee: ... this is a bug (../../g10/gpg.c:2052:main) secmem usage: 0/0 bytes in 0/0 blocks of pool 0/32768 This thread (http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2006-August/029097.html) suggests that the setuid bit is reponsible for the crash. However the program has been working correctly since february (the machine is running unstable but is not upgraded very often). I think the change introduced in 1.4.6-2.2 broke this behaviour (Do not install gpg setuid root, this is not necessary anymore since Linux kernel 2.6.9. (Closes: #356550, #346597, #453122)) ? If I chmod u+s /usr/bin/gpg, my ldi command works fine again. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to fr_FR.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnupg depends on: ii gpgv 1.4.9-1 GNU privacy guard - signature veri ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.5-0.1 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.7-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libreadline5 5.2-3 GNU readline and history libraries ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-11 userspace USB programming library ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnupg recommends: ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.9-1 OpenLDAP libraries -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
