Package: libpam-foreground
Version: 0.2
Severity: important
When using libpam-foreground on a system where /var/run/ isn't on a
ram file system, the /var/run/console/ directory might fill up with
files for users logged into the console when the machine crashed. The
package need to remove all files in /var/run/console/ at boot time if
the directory exist to work properly and not grant access to the wrong
users.
I suggest adding a init.d script like this in
/etc/rcS.d/S46libpam-foreground-clean:
#!/bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: libpam-foreground-clean
# Required-Start: $local_fs $remote_fs
# Required-Stop:
# Default-Start: S
# Default-Stop:
# Short-Description: Clean old status files during boot.
### END INIT INFO
set -e
. /lib/lsb/init-functions
PATH=/sbin:/bin
STATEDIR=/var/run/console
case "$1" in
start)
if [ -d $STATEDIR ]; then
log_begin_msg "Cleaning up $STATEDIR/..."
rm -f $STATEDIR/*
log_end_msg 0
fi
exit 0
;;
stop|restart|force-reload)
exit 0
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|force-reload}" >&2
exit 3
;;
esac
