What were you trying to do that didn't work?
Running subscription-manager as an unprivileged user runs the program through consolehelper and then userhelper to elevate permissions. When subscription manager is run this way the userhelper wrapper coredumps. However, the wrapped subscription-manager completes successfully
What is the impact of this issue to you?
In our CI/CD pipeline that we use to test configuration changes, our unregistration commands were not working because the coredump caused a non-zero exit code. We have implemented a workaround by calling the actual subscription-manager binary in /usr/sbin.
Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:
usermode-1.114-5.el9.x86_64
subscription-manager-1.29.42-1.el9.x86_64
How reproducible is this bug?:
I can reproduce it every time
Steps to reproduce
- Create a RHEL 9.5 test environment
- Run subscription-manager list as an unprivileged user
- Enter the root pass when prompted by the userhelper wrapper
Expected results
Seeing the output of the subscription-manager list command
Actual results
Seeing the output of the subscription-manager list command plus the "Aborted (core dumped)" text.
