From 4a4a009f78d7267d58a1dbd95f70f12ee3fe89f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Peebles Date: Mon, 30 Oct 2017 17:25:41 +0100 Subject: Allow optional localhost network access to sandboxed derivations This will allow bind and connect to 127.0.0.1, which can reduce purity/ security (if you're running a vulnerable service on localhost) but is also needed for a ton of test suites, so I'm leaving it turned off by default but allowing certain derivations to turn it on as needed. It also allows DNS resolution of arbitrary hostnames but I haven't found a way to avoid that. In principle I'd just want to allow resolving localhost but that doesn't seem to be possible. I don't think this belongs under `build-use-sandbox = relaxed` because we want it on Hydra and I don't think it's the end of the world. --- src/libstore/sandbox-defaults.sb | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/libstore/sandbox-defaults.sb') diff --git a/src/libstore/sandbox-defaults.sb b/src/libstore/sandbox-defaults.sb index d63c8f813c9e..cf700c62c6fb 100644 --- a/src/libstore/sandbox-defaults.sb +++ b/src/libstore/sandbox-defaults.sb @@ -30,6 +30,29 @@ ; Without this line clang cannot write to /dev/null, breaking some configure tests.
