Opened: Oct 02, 2019

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

By building rpm of avrd, few cfg files get wrong set of permissions (executable)

Impact

Apparently not having the right set of permissions can lead to system halt

Conditions

Any build of avrd rpm

Workaround

Change permissions on file: # chmod -x /etc/avr/tmstat_tables.xml

Fix Information

AVR build the rpm cfg files with the right set of permissions, instead of building them as executable file, building them in 644 mode.
