Name

PRXY-139 — Proxy cannot change its root directory

Severity

C (critical)

Message text

Cannot change root directory to %s

Description

It is possible to run a proxy in the so-called chroot environment.

A directory is chosen to be a new root directory for the proxy. This effectively restricts the proxy into a subtree of the file system tree and disables access to all files outside the subtree. If chroot operation is requested but cannot be performed, the proxy exits.
