The LXC driver uses virSetUIDGID() to become UID/GID 0. It passes an empty groups list to virSetUIDGID() to get rid of all supplementary groups from the host side. But virSetUIDGID() calls setgroups() only if the supplied list is larger than 0. This leads to a container root with unrelated supplementary groups. In most cases this issue is unoticed as libvirtd runs as UID/GID 0 without any supplementary groups. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at> Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
