Summary: Fix a case where a user 'ro' or 'roo' exists on the system
Key: CLOUDSTACK-10067
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-10067
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Reporter: Lars Tobias Skjong-Børsting
Fix a case where a user 'ro' or 'roo' exists on the system or other variants,
like 'cen' and 'centos'.
If one sets user=roo, this will return two directories (/root /home/roo) and
then it will fail.
Also, if user 'ro' or 'roo' does not exist, this will happily put the sshkey to
the authorized_keys of the root account, which is not the intended place.
As another slightly less improbable example, if we have two users in our
company named lars, then we could end up with lars's sshkey in larsb's
authorized_keys.
The binary getent should be available on most Linux platforms, including ones
using uClibc.
