33 /* Relinquish privileges temporarily for a setuid or setgid program
34 * with the option of getting them back later. This is done by
35 * utilizing POSIX saved user and group IDs. Call RELINQUISH_PRIVS once
36 * at the beginning of the main program. This will cause all operations
37 * to be executed with the real userid. When you need the privileges
38 * of the setuid/setgid invocation, call PRIV_START; when you no longer
39 * need it, call PRIV_END. Note that it is an error to call PRIV_START
40 * and not PRIV_END within the same function.
42 * Use RELINQUISH_PRIVS_ROOT(a,b) if your program started out running
43 * as root, and you want to drop back the effective userid to a
44 * and the effective group id to b, with the option to get them back
47 * If you no longer need root privileges, but those of some other
48 * userid/groupid, you can call REDUCE_PRIV(a,b) when your effective
51 * Problems: Do not use return between PRIV_START and PRIV_END; this
52 * will cause the program to continue running in an unprivileged
55 * It is NOT safe to call exec(), system() or popen() with a user-
56 * supplied program (i.e. without carefully checking PATH and any
57 * library load paths) with relinquished privileges; the called program
58 * can acquire them just as easily. Set both effective and real userid
59 * to the real userid before calling any of them.
