[PATCH] tests/fake_snap: sanitize paths

David Disseldorp ddiss at samba.org
Sat Aug 26 21:40:37 UTC 2017


Ensure fake_snap.pl can be run in taint mode (-T), by sanitizing paths
and the PATH env. This fixes the following samba3.rpc.fsrvp selftest
failures:
Insecure dependency in mkdir while running setgid at (eval 2) line 4.
snap create failed: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
snap create failed for shadow copy of /home/ddiss/isms/samba/st/nt4_dc/share

Bug: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12988
