2013-11-09 00:26:44 Brian Murray description A dialoge message is constantly coming up saying that a problem with ubuntu has occured. When I click send details, another error comes up saying: This problem report is damaged and cannot be processed. PermissionError(13, 'Permission denied') No other information is given. Impact: Users are notified of crash files for which they do not have permission to read, subsequently they can see odd "permission denied" dialogs which creates an unpleasant experience. Test Case: 1) Login in as a guest user 2) In a terminal run 'xeyes &' 3) Then run 'pkill -11 xeyes' 4) Observe apport crash dialog and click X to close it 5) Switch back to your regular user 6) Observe a crash dialog for a "system crash", enter your password and then observe no apport crash dialog. (The original description indicates a permission denied message and this will happen if your user also has a .crash file that needs reporting, but that'd be a longer test case.) Regression Potential: As this changes the upstart job for crash notification's a fair bit its possible that some crashes will not be reported. With the package from -proposed you will not receive a crash dialog for the guest user's crash file. A dialoge message is constantly coming up saying that a problem with ubuntu has occured. When I click send details, another error comes up saying: This problem report is damaged and cannot be processed. PermissionError(13, 'Permission denied') No other information is given.

Impact: Users are notified of crash files for which they do not have permission to read, subsequently they can see odd "permission denied" dialogs which creates an unpleasant experience. Test Case: 1) Create a second user 2) Log out as your regular user 3) Login as this second user 4) In a terminal run 'xeyes &' 5) In a terminal run 'pkill -11 xeyes' 6) Close resulting crash dialog (do not send it) 7) Log out as second user 8) Log in as your regular user 9) As your regular user install d-feet 10) In a terminal run 'd-feet &' 11) In a terminal run 'pkill -11 d-feet' 12) Close resulting crash dialog (do not send it) 13) Log out 14) In a virtual terminal modify both crash files (xeyes and d-feet) in /var/crash by adding a second to the Date: field in each crash file. This causes the upstart job to think they are new again. 15) Log in as your regular user and observe two crash notifications, one will be for d-feet the other will be a "Permission denied" dialog. With the package version from -proposed you will only receive one crash dialog.
