Latest nagios plugins rpm ships with checks that can't run
Posted: Thu May 23, 2019 3:42 am
A bunch of my servers auto updated to this package this morning: nagiosxi-nagiosplugins-5.6.2-1.el7.x86_64, and the almost all of the checks have lost their execute bit.
The /usr/local/nagios/libexec install dir looks like this:
The upstream rpm file originates from here: https://repo.nagios.com/nagios/7/nagios ... x86_64.rpm
A server I downgraded the plugins to the package nagiosxi-nagiosplugins-5.6.1-1.el7.x86_64 on looks like this:
We execute the plugins remotely from NagiosXI via ncpa, and ncpa won't exec the plugins, so now I have 80 alerts to deal with. It would be quite a bit higher, but not everything auto updates, and we use ncpa's internal where we can.
Here's the output of the rpm command showing the chmod entries set on install:
Can someone please fix the rpm ASAP?
As an aside, as a paying customer, I really do expect a duty of care that's absent with this update, given the considerable amount we're spending on the NagiosXI product.
