Bug ID: 874942 QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org Severity: high External Bug URL: http://rt.cpan.org/Public/ Version: rawhide Priority: unspecified CC: mmaslano@redhat.com, perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org, psabata@redhat.com Assignee: mmaslano@redhat.com Summary: Net-DNS: system configuration is used instead of user's Regression: --- Story Points: --- Classification: Fedora OS: Unspecified Reporter: mmaslano@redhat.com Type: Bug Documentation: --- Hardware: Unspecified Mount Type: --- Status: NEW Component: perl-Net-DNS Product: Fedora External Bug ID: CPAN 67602
If I define my own configuration file, system files are used, which could be security issue. Example: My configuration file is defined as: my $res = Net::DNS::Resolver->new(config_file => '/my/dns.conf'); These files are read even if I defined my own file: /etc/resolv.conf $HOME/.resolv.conf ./.resolv.conf Last 2 files shouldn't be read by default since it's possible security issue - user can drop .resolv.conf pointing to malicious dns server. This issue was found during testing spamassassin with selinux. For details see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/sh ow_bug.cgi?id=628866#c2
I'm reporting this error back into our bugzilla because of last comment in rt: I think the level of this PR should be elevated to 'security'.

--- Comment #8 from Fedora End Of Life endoflife@fedoraproject.org --- This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.
Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
