From 759ec1113d0a1d6315b38bd83ec3562dacc08238 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lin Jian Date: Thu, 7 Sep 2023 10:27:20 +0800 Subject: nixos/network-interfaces: stop wrapping ping with cap_net_raw From systemd 243 release note[1]: This release enables unprivileged programs (i.e. requiring neither setuid nor file capabilities) to send ICMP Echo (i.e. ping) requests by turning on the "net.ipv4.ping_group_range" sysctl of the Linux kernel for the whole UNIX group range, i.e. all processes. So this wrapper is not needed any more. See also [2] and [3]. This patch also removes: - apparmor profiles in NixOS for ping itself and the wrapped one - other references for the wrapped ping [1]: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/8e2d9d40b33bc8e8f5d3479fb075d3fab32a4184/NEWS#L6457-L6464 [2]: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/13141 [3]: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/EnableSysctlPingGroupRange --- nixos/doc/manual/development/activation-script.section.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'nixos/doc/manual/development') diff --git a/nixos/doc/manual/development/activation-script.section.md b/nixos/doc/manual/development/activation-script.section.md index c339258c6dc48..cc317a6a01aa8 100644 --- a/nixos/doc/manual/development/activation-script.section.md +++ b/nixos/doc/manual/development/activation-script.section.md @@ -69,4 +69,4 @@ do: `/etc/group` and `/etc/shadow`.
