Package: systemd Version: 225-1 Severity: wishlist File: /bin/systemd-ask-password
The file being in /bin suggests that users can use it. However, writing a service unit just now using User= to start a process as non-root exposed that /run/systemd/ask-password is not writeable by non-root. Is there any technical reason why not anyone can register password-ask requests with the system? Ideally, the requests would get a target user such that e.g. systemd-tty-ask-password-agent can be fired off by the target users to respond to queries. -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.0.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages systemd depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii libacl1 2.2.52-2 ii libapparmor1 2.9.2-3 ii libaudit1 1:2.4.4-1 ii libblkid1 2.27-1 ii libc6 2.19-19 ii libcap2 1:2.24-11 ii libcap2-bin 1:2.24-11 ii libcryptsetup4 2:1.6.6-5 ii libgcrypt20 1.6.3-2 ii libkmod2 21-1 ii liblzma5 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2.1 ii libmount1 2.27-1 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.1 ii libseccomp2 2.2.3-2 ii libselinux1 2.3-2+b1 ii libsystemd0 225-1 ii mount 2.27-1 ii sysv-rc 2.88dsf-59.2 ii udev 225-1 ii util-linux 2.27-1 Versions of packages systemd recommends: ii dbus 1.9.16-2 ii libpam-systemd 225-1 Versions of packages systemd suggests: pn systemd-container <none> pn systemd-ui <none> -- debconf-show failed -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@d.o> @martinkrafft : :' : proud Debian developer `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
