[Bug 945021] Re: Ubuntu 12.04 Beta1 AMIs have wrong permissions in /etc

[Moritz Grimm]

The bot asks for a package name ... well, many packages feel responsible
for /etc. Anyways, maybe blaming hostname(1) puts more visibility on
this bug.

** Package changed: ubuntu => hostname (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Ubuntu 12.04 Beta1 AMIs have wrong permissions in /etc

Status in “hostname” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The packaging process of the EC2 AMIs for 12.04 seems to be containing
  errors, as /etc is group-writeable, and two files (hostname, hosts)
  have bad ownership and insecure permissions.

  This does not occur on a regular -server installation, but can be
  observed on (at least) AMI ami-7b152c0f (eu-west-1).

  # ls -la /etc
  total 788
  drwxrwxr-x 86 root   root    4096 Mar  2 17:44 .
  [...]
  -rw-r--r--  1 ubuntu ubuntu    18 Mar  2 17:44 hostname
  -rw-rw-r--  1 ubuntu ubuntu   221 Jan  9 08:47 hosts
