oddjob bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated oddjob packages that fix multiple bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The oddjobd service runs specified privileged tasks for unprivileged client
applications which communicate with it through the system message bus.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Previously, the oddjobd service failed to reconnect to the system message bus
after it lost its connection due to an internal function call. With this update,
the oddjobd service is now able to reconnect to the message bus successfully
after it loses a connection. (BZ#634356)
- If a umask is not specified in the oddjobd service's configuration file, the
service now uses the UMASK setting, if present, to calculate the permissions
which should be set on a user's home directory. (BZ#678345)
- The oddjobd service did not ensure, when creating a user's home directory,
that any intermediate directories that were created would have correct
permissions. This could have caused users to be unable to access their home
directory. With this update, oddjobd ensures that correct permissions are set
for any intervening directories such that the user is able to access their home
directory. (BZ#664418)
- The oddjobd init script exited with a exit status of "1" when it was passed a
non-existent action. Service init scripts should exit with an exit code of "2"
when they are asked to perform an unknown action. The oddjobd init script has
been corrected, and now conforms with init script guidelines. (BZ#674534)
- The oddjobd service failed to register the name of the mkhomedir service
because the message bus was not signaled to re-read its configuration files when
the oddjob-mkhomedir package was installed. With this update, oddjobd is now
able to register the mkhomedir service name successfully. (BZ#659681)
All oddjobd service users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages which
fix these bugs.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
