Date: Tue, 31 May 2011 00:19:20 GMT From: bugzilla-daemon@...zilla.kernel.org To: linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org Subject: [Bug 36312] New: User belonging to another Group has no access when chmod 0040 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36312 Summary: User belonging to another Group has no access when chmod 0040 Product: File System Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 2.6.39 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: low Priority: P1 Component: ext4 AssignedTo: fs_ext4@...nel-bugs.osdl.org ReportedBy: ubuntuefnet@...il.com Regression: Yes This may not be a bug, this may be intentional - however it was considered pretty damn weird when encountered and worth a mention. Say we have user 'bob', he is the owner of file 'accounting.txt' and 'accounting.txt' has group 'staff' attributed to the file which 'bob' is a part of. If the permissions for the file only have group perms (e.g 0060), 'bob' will not be able to access 'accounting.txt', however all other users in the 'staff' group will have access. Replication via CLI: touch myfile.txt && chown `whoami`:`groups | awk '{print $2}'` myfile.txt && chmod 0040 myfile.txt && cat myfile.txt System: Debian 6.0.1 Arch: x86_64 Kernel: 2.6.39 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
