Package: libvirt-daemon-system Version: 9.0.0-4 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: deb...@rocketjump.eu
Hi, Currently, the permissions for /var/lib/libvirt/images are root:root u=rwx,go=x. It would be nice to change those to root:libvirt ug=rwx,o=x. This should not change anything from the security standpoint, as users of the libvirt group can already interact with libvirtd and add/remove/modify VMs. The upside would be that virt-v2v can run without root permissions, as it directly writes to that dir. I have verified that changing the permissions allows virt-v2v to run rootless. For completeness, this is the command line I've tested it with: virt-v2v -i ova -o libvirt -of qcow2 -oo compressed -oc 'qemu:///system' win11.zip -on win11trial Regards, Lee -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (990, 'stable-updates'), (990, 'stable-security'), (990, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-13-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages libvirt-daemon-system depends on: ii adduser 3.134 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.82 ii gettext-base 0.21-12 ii iptables 1.8.9-2 ii libvirt-clients 9.0.0-4 ii libvirt-daemon 9.0.0-4 ii libvirt-daemon-config-network 9.0.0-4 ii libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter 9.0.0-4 ii libvirt-daemon-system-systemd 9.0.0-4 ii logrotate 3.21.0-1 ii polkitd 122-3 Versions of packages libvirt-daemon-system recommends: ii dmidecode 3.4-1 ii dnsmasq-base [dnsmasq-base] 2.89-1 ii iproute2 6.1.0-3 ii mdevctl 1.2.0-3+b1 ii parted 3.5-3 Versions of packages libvirt-daemon-system suggests: ii apparmor 3.0.8-3 pn auditd <none> pn nfs-common <none> pn open-iscsi <none> pn pm-utils <none> ii systemd 252.17-1~deb12u1 pn systemtap <none> pn zfsutils <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/default/libvirt-guests changed [not included] /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf' -- debconf information excluded
