There are two - plus one reasons why we need to do this, and one very unfortunate - consequence. - - Firstly, SUID does not work on an executable script. In the end, it is - the execution of the translator, in our case guile, which determines the - effective user, and it is not wise to make the system guile installation - SUID root! - - Secondly, executable scripts show up in ugly ways in listings of the - system process table. Guile in particular, with its multi-line - #! ...\ \n -s ...!# - idiosyncracies shows up in process listings in a way that is difficult - to determine what program is actually running. - - A third reason for the C wrapper which might be mentioned is that a - security-conscious system administrator can choose to only install a - binary, thus removing the possibility of a user studying a guile script - and working out ways of hacking it to his own ends, or worse still - finding a way to modify it to his own ends. - - Unfortunately, running the guile script from inside a C program means - that the sigaction function does not work. Instead, it is necessary to - perform the signal processing in C. - - The guile code itself is substituted for the GU1LE_PROGRAM_GOES_HERE (sic) - token by the makefile, which processes the scheme to make it look like one - big string. -*/ - - - -#include <string.h> -#include <signal.h> -#include <libguile.h> - - - -/* This is a function designed to be installed as a signal handler, for signals - which are supposed to initiate shutdown of this program.
