The branch main has been updated by emaste: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=062b69ba045dc0fef3d9b8d73365d2798c05a480 commit 062b69ba045dc0fef3d9b8d73365d2798c05a480 Author: Ed Maste <emaste@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2024-11-27 20:36:46 +0000 Commit: Ed Maste <emaste@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2024-11-28 13:04:10 +0000 comsat: Improve use of setuid() Just return from jkfprintf if either (a) user lookup fails (that is, getpwnam fails) or (b) setuid() to the user's uid fails. If comsat is invoked from inetd using the default of tty:tty we will now return due to setuid() failing rather than fopen() failing.
