https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D236622 Bug ID: 236622 Summary: security/clamav clamd will not run as root if the option is set in /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: ddrinnon@cdor.net CC: yasu@utahime.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(yasu@utahime.org) CC: yasu@utahime.org clamd will not run as root if=20 User root is set in /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf. It seems this is because /usr/local/etc/rc.d/clamav-clamd sets the default user as clamav. The only= way to set clamd to run as root is to add clamav_clamd_user=3D"root" in /etc/rc.conf and then the User <username> line in clamd.conf is honored. The line in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/clamav-clamd: : ${clamav_clamd_user=3D"clamav"} can alse be commented out and then the User root line in clamd.conf is hono= red. Not sure when the rc.conf option was added, but it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere. Please bring back the original behavior. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
