With libcap 2.41 the output of cap_to_text changed, also the original
author of code hoped that this would never happen.
To counter this now the security-wrapper only relies on the syscall
ABI, which is more stable and robust than string parsing. If new
breakages occur this will be more obvious because version numbers will
be incremented.
Furthermore all errors no make execution explicitly fail instead of
hiding errors behind debug environment variables and the code style was
more consistent with no goto fail; goto fail; vulnerabilities (https://gotofail.com/)
I found a logical error in the bash script, but during
debugging I enabled command echoing and realised it
would be a good idea to have it enabled all the time for
ease of bug reporting.
For in NixOS it is beneficial if both plasma5 and pam use the same Qt5
version. Because the plasma5 desktop may use a different version as the
default Qt5 version, we introduce plasma5Packages.
- Added an ExecPostStart to acme-$cert.service when webroot is defined to create the acme-challenge
directory and fix required permissions. Lego always tries to create .well-known and acme-challenge,
thus if any permissions in that tree are wrong it will crash and break cert renewal.
- acme-fixperms now configured with acme User and Group, however the script still runs as root. This
ensures the StateDirectories are owned by the acme user.
- Switched to list syntax for systemd options where multiple values are specified.
Closes#106603
Some webservers (lighttpd) require that the
files they are serving are world readable. We
do our own chmods in the scripts anyway, and
lego has sensible permissions on its output
files, so this change is safe enough.
systemd-tmpfiles is no longer required for
most of the critical paths in the module. The
only one that remains is the webroot
acme-challenge directory since there's no
other good place for this to live and forcing
users to do the right thing alone will only
create more issues.
Closes#106565
When generating multiple certificates which all
share the same server + email, lego will attempt
to create an account multiple times. By adding an
account creation target certificates which share
an account will wait for one service (chosen at
config build time) to complete first.
This means that all systems running from master will trigger
new certificate creation on next rebuild. Race conditions around
multiple account creation are fixed in #106857, not this commit.
See https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/fedora-31-control-group-v2 for
details on why this is desirable, and how it impacts containers.
Users that need to keep using the old cgroup hierarchy can re-enable it
by setting `systemd.unifiedCgroupHierarchy` to `false`.
Well-known candidates not supporting that hierarchy, like docker and
hidepid=… will disable it automatically.
Fixes#73800
This attribute is a generalized version of cryptHomeLuks for creating an
entry in /etc/security/pam_mount.conf.xml. It lets the configuration
control all the attributes of the <volume> entry, instead of just the
path. The default path remains the value of cryptHomeLuks, for
compatibility.
serviceConfig.ProtectSystem is usually a string so if set, the assert
itself would error out leaving no useable trace:

When using the ACME DNS-01 challenge, there is a possibility of a
failure to resolve the challenge if the record is not propagated
fast enough. To circumvent this generic DNS problem, this adds
a setting to explicitly tell the ACME provider to use a certain DNS
resolver to lookup the challenge.

This reverts commit fb6d63f3fd.
I really hope this finally fixes#99236: evaluation on Hydra.
This time I really did check basically the same commit on Hydra:
https://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1618011
Right now I don't have energy to find what exactly is wrong in the
commit, and it doesn't seem important in comparison to nixos-unstable
channel being stuck on a commit over one week old.
This should hopefully solve races with DNS servers (such as unbound)
during the activation of a new generation. Previously unbound could
still be unavailable and thus the acme script would fail.
9544c6078e / #96672 removed the samba option
`syncPasswordsByPam`.
Need to remove this option from the pam module, otherwise it will cause build errors
The `package`-option is always useful if modifying a package in an
overlay would mean that a lot of other packages need to be rebuilt as
well.
In case of `sudo` this is actually the case: when having an override for
it (e.g. for `withInsults = true;`), you'd have to rebuild e.g. `zfs`
and `grub` although that's not strictly needed.
The /run/wrapper directory is a tmpfs. Unfortunately, it's mounted with
its root directory has the standard (for tmpfs) mode: 1777 (world writeable,
sticky -- the standard mode of shared temporary directories). This means that
every user can create new files and subdirectories there, but can't
move/delete/rename files that belong to other users.
`rngd` seems to be the root cause for slow boot issues, and its functionality is
redundant since kernel v3.17 (2014), which introduced a `krngd` task (in kernel
space) that takes care of pulling in data from hardware RNGs:
