Package: boot-floppies
Version: potato
Hi,
The bash package in potato includes a nice /etc/skel/.bash_logout file:
# ~/.bash_logout: executed by bash(1) when login shell exits.
# when leaving the console clear the screen to increase privacy
case "`tty`" in
/dev/tty[0-9]) clear
esac
However, after installation, root's account doesn't have this, as it is not
created using adduser/useradd, I guess, but made by the installation system.
This file should be added to ~root, because root's privacy must be of utmost
importance. :) TIA.

Eww! Barf! I would actually consider it a bug if my shell did that
by default. It's also a completely broken test, if doesn't work for
tty10 for example.

Well, okay, the test can be improved, but the idea should be good.

Lets do that.
The problem: bash should not clear the screen by default, it's imho

reassign 72327 bash
retitle 72327 /etc/skel/.bash_logout should not exist
thanks
I also wonder why do we need .bash_profile and .bashrc in /etc/skel at all.
Policy says /etc/skel should be as empty as we can make it.

Lets do that.
The problem: bash should not clear the screen by default, it's imho
highly annoying behaviour.

If clearing of the screen shouldn't be done by the shell, can it be done by
the getty instead, please? I filed the bug because I _want_ the root's
screen to be cleared after exiting, not the other way around.

But some people does not want this to happen and consider it a bad
default. What's wrong with adding your own /root/.bash_logout?
The status of /root/.bash_logout is even better than a conffile: You
can add such file if you want one and you don't have it, it will never
be overwritten by a system file, and dpkg will never prompt about it.

The defaults on new installations should be adjusted to be most safe for
newbie users. Imagine this type of `social engineering': a malicious person
sees a newbie admin (it could be a home machine, even) edit something,
guesses it could be sensitive information, and immediately thinks of a
reason for him to have to leave the console. Then he comes in pretending to
be rushing, screams the aforemented reason, which causes the newbie to exit
the editor, type exit and run off hastily. The malicious person then
captures the sensitive information still on screen (approx. 15 lines at
least), without being noticed and without any real logs.
Yeah, sure, it's not going to happen every day; but we do fix all exploit
cases in our packages, even if they are only potential, don't we?
I also can't think of any advantage in leaving the screen not cleared after
root logout.

People who know that they don't want it would also know how easily they can
remove it. So IMHO it would be better to have the screen cleared by default.

The defaults on new installations should be adjusted to be most safe for
newbie users. Imagine this type of `social engineering': a malicious person
sees a newbie admin (it could be a home machine, even) edit something,
guesses it could be sensitive information, and immediately thinks of a
reason for him to have to leave the console. Then he comes in pretending to
be rushing, screams the aforemented reason, which causes the newbie to exit
the editor, type exit and run off hastily. The malicious person then
captures the sensitive information still on screen (approx. 15 lines at
least), without being noticed and without any real logs.
Yeah, sure, it's not going to happen every day; but we do fix all exploit
cases in our packages, even if they are only potential, don't we?
I also can't think of any advantage in leaving the screen not cleared after
root logout.

People who know that they don't want it would also know how easily they can
remove it. So IMHO it would be better to have the screen cleared by default.

Well, this is security throught obscurity, and I don't think we should
encourage it. Privacy and security should be different things. While I
agree we should fix every security hole, I don't think we should
impose a default privacy policy. If we did what you suggest, we should
change default mode for directories in /home to be 750 or something alike.
I think the lack of a .bash_logout file is in line with /home directories
being 755 by default and other non-privacy defaults in Debian, if we decide
to change one of them we would have to change them all.

But this is a wee bit different. This is the _root_ account. Its home
directory, /root, is mode 700. Admin is a special kind of user, and his
security/privacy policies are special.

maybe this changed. At least a have some slink boxes where 700 was the
