Product: initscripts
Component: initscripts
Summary: killproc kills outside it own chroot
Product: initscripts
Version: 7.06-14mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: initscripts
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
native system: /
chroot system: /chroot
xfs is used as an example, same applies to other daemons (cron, etc)
Deinstall XFree86-xfs from chroot system. xfs is not running in chroot (no pid
file), killproc doesn't find a pid file, looks up the "xfs" processes in the
process table and kills them. Result: xfs running in native system ( / ) is killed.
possible fix: check if the process you are trying to kill has the same root.
- lsof will give this information in "rtd".
- compare if /proc/$$/root = /proc/$kill_pid/root
