Previously, we'd create them from user-runtime-dir@.service. That has one benefit: since this service runs privileged, we can create the full set of device nodes. It has one major drawback though: it security-wise problematic to create files/directories in directories as privileged user in directories owned by unprivileged users, since they can use symlinks to redirect what we want to do. As a general rule we hence avoid this logic: only unpriv code should populate unpriv directories. Hence, let's move this code to an appropriate place in the service manager. This means we lose the inaccessible block device node, but since there's already a fallback in place, this shouldn't be too bad. |
