This OverlayFS bug is more importance that all of you noticed. It does
also break the RPATH library location mechanism and so many software
products like: LibreOffice and Java (jre-openjdk)

Serge,
Applications should not be making use of /proc, so any bug related to an
application reading /proc and implicitly trusting it's contents is a separate
bug. However correcting inaccuracy in /proc is worthy of a bug report.
/sys is the file system for applications to be using as a reliab
Seems to go along with (but perhaps not be a dup of) bug 959352.

What is the status of this bug? Has the OverlayFS team been made aware

This seams to effect a number of packages, albeit these packages are

Is any one even reading these?

Ohh, one added point is that you are only looking for overlayfs mounts:
lnk=$(readlink /proc/$(pgrep firefox)/exe); for ech in $(cut -f2,3 -d\

That's interesting. For self updating applications, well first of all
applications should not have access to modify there own source. Leaving
that aside as it's obviously working for you and your users are
presumably aware of the security risks.
Then I have to point out that the code you linked
I forgot ^/opt and the like.

Mike, we are using /proc/self/exe to substitute the executable with a
newer version. We can stop using it, but it was the most secure way to
get the path for the executable (see https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
central/source/xpcom/build/BinaryPath.h#83 for the other opportunity).

John,
If so then the bug 763192 would be that it uses /proc/self/exe. Usage of the
exe link should be limited to checking to see if this PID is a running instance
of a daemon. I'm not sure I've ever seen another good use for the exe link,
but I can tell at a glace that 763192 isn't it.

Joseph,
Any one running any kernel can test for this bug. Let me write a short shell
script that will do just that. I've tested this script on my box and it
revealed the bug.
(

mkdir -p /mnt/test /tmp/usr

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.5kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the
linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.
Once you've tested the upstream
I've made changes to /etc/asound.conf and now PulseAudio is starting and

Ohh, my. Yeah, it looks like PA is not starting for another reason.
Though this still looks like a bug in overlayfs that's causing a warning
from PA.
I have too many warnings on boot, that much is clear.
