Shorewall 5.1.10.2 is now available for download: Problems Corrected:
1) There are two related defects in 5.1.10 and 5.1.10.1 that manifest
when AUTOMAKE=Yes. When AUTOMAKE=Yes, the commands 'start',
'restart' and 'reload' cause the 'find' utility to be run in each
entry in the CONFIG_PATH to look for files that have been modified
since the current firewall script was created.
a) While the compiler only searches in the directories themselves,
'find' was not limited to just those directories, but was rather
searched the entire tree rooted in each entry of the
directories.
b) If the CONFIG_PATH was prefixed by ":", then there was
effectively an empty entry in CONFIG_PATH, which resulted in a
search of the entire tree rooted in the current working
directory.
Both problems have been corrected:
a) Find is run with '-maxdepth 1', to limit the search to just the
files in the directory.
b) Find is not run on empty paths in CONFIG_PATH.
Thank you for using Shorewall,
-Tom
