I can't think of any real vulnerability about this, but it still feels
better to check a variable with "secure" in its name with
secure_getenv() rather than plain getenv().
Paranoia FTW!

We ended doing callouts to the Disconnected matches from bus_ensure_running()
and shouldn't. bus_ensure_running() should never do callouts. This change
should fix this however: once we notice that the connection is going down we
will now fail instantly with ENOTOCONN instead of calling any callbacks.
This should not change any behavior, as currently link_free_engines() is
always called after all addresses are dropped. But the function may be
used in other places in the future. So, let's also stop the clients.
Before this commit, event when Gateway=_dhcp4 or _ra is set, the
route was configured with 'protocol static', and other properties
specified by RouteTable=, RouteMTU=, or etc, were ignored.
This commit makes set the route protocol based on the protocol the
gateway address is obtained, and apply other settings if it is not
explicitly specified in the [Route] section.
bootctl implements three types of operation: those that work with an EFI
boot loader, those which work with any EFI boot loader that implements
the boot loader spec + interface, and finally those specific to sd-boot.
Previously the --help text and the man page mixed them all up. Let's put
them clearly in three separate sections however, to communicate clearly
what is supposed to work everywhere, and what is specific to
systemd-boot or boot loaders implementing the two specs.
This adjusts wording here and there, but is mostly just about
re-ordering existing docs, and putting them under new sections.
We close fds in two phases, first some and then the some more. When passing
a list of fds to exclude from closing to the closing function, we would
pass some in an array and the rest as separate arguments. For the fds which
should be excluded in both closing phases, let's always create the array
and put the relevant fds there. This has the advantage that if more fds to
exclude in both phases are added later, we don't need to add more positional
arguments.
The list passed to setup_pam() is not changed. I think we could pass more fds
to close there, but I'm leaving that unchanged.
The setting of FD_CLOEXEC on an already open fds is dropped. The fd is opened
in service_allocate_exec_fd() and there is no reason to suspect that it might
have been opened incorrectly. If some rogue code is unsetting our FD_CLOEXEC
bits, then it might flip any fd, no reason to single this one out.
We would return ENOENT, which is extremely confusing. Strace is not helpful because
no *file* is actually missing. So let's add some logs at debug level and also use
a custom return code. Let all user-facing utilities print a custom error message
in that case.
When connection to the bus fails it can be mighty hard to figure out
what went wrong because we have many different connection mechanisms and
we don't log what is happenning.
The function link_acquire_conf() may make the link state 'configuring'
when DHCP6 PD is enabled. Previously link_acquire_conf() was called
before link_enter_join_netdev(), and thus the assertion in the function
might be triggered.
Fixes#17329.
This updates the "systemd-analyze syscall-filter" command to show a
special section of syscalls that are included in @known but in no other
group. Typically this should show syscalls we either should add to any
of the existing groups or where we unsure were they best fit in.
Right now, it mostly shows arch-specific compat syscalls, we probably
should move "@obsolete". This patch doesn't add thta however.
The variable is renamed to SYSTEMD_PAGERSECURE (because it's not just about
less now), and we automatically enable secure mode in certain cases, but not
otherwise.
This approach is more nuanced, but should provide a better experience for
users:
- Previusly we would set LESSSECURE=1 and trust the pager to make use of
it. But this has an effect only on less. We need to not start pagers which
are insecure when in secure mode. In particular more is like that and is a
very popular pager.
- We don't enable secure mode always, which means that those other pagers can
reasonably used.
- We do the right thing by default, but the user has ultimate control by
setting SYSTEMD_PAGERSECURE.
Fixes#5666.
v2:
- also check $PKEXEC_UID
v3:
- use 'sd_pid_get_owner_uid() != geteuid()' as the condition
