From 7e767b7e90755f5b8c90b37e68ae14098fba5520 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Vladimir A. Nazarenko" Date: Sun, 20 Oct 2013 15:57:24 +1100 Subject: Use getuid instead of geteuid If someone gives the pacman binary setuid permissions, the geteuid check allows it to start running but subsequently fail. As we do not support setting pacman setuid, use getuid to check permissions instead. FS#37174. Signed-off-by: Vladimir A.
