Package: x11-common Version: 1:7.1.0-7 Severity: wishlist
Hi, x11-common installs the /usr/bin/X wrapper with SUID root permissions: -rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 18416 2006-11-19 01:58 /usr/bin/X This is fine on a workstation where one wants a X server. However, on a server that does not need a X server, but only X clients, this is a security risk that I would prefer not to worry about (BTW, see bug #396958). -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (100, 'unstable'), (99, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-2-686 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages x11-common depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.9 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.17.3 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii lsb-base 3.1-22 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip x11-common recommends no packages. -- debconf information: x11-common/experimental_packages: x11-common/xwrapper/actual_allowed_users: console x11-common/xwrapper/nice_value/error: x11-common/xwrapper/allowed_users: Console Users Only x11-common/xwrapper/nice_value: 0 * x11-common/upgrade_issues: * x11-common/x11r6_bin_not_empty: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
