I recently tried to install a new ubuntu kernel (4.10.0-22). It failed, it seems due to Sophos.

I recently tried to install the latest kernel for ubuntu 17.04 - 4.10.0-22.  It kept failing saying an "operation was not permitted".  When I reported this on the ubuntu bug tracker it was suggested I turn off anti-virus and try again. 

I disabled the on-access scan and tried again, and installation worked.

I had no warnings or alerts from sophos.  I checked that the sophos warnings and emails were on and worked (I tested using the test virus file) and that all worked.

So, somehow sophos is preventing a file access.  I am on the latest version, including talpa.

The ubuntu report with full details is at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1696132

  • Hello

    I had the same issue.

    Exemple

     

    root@debian:/# apt install linux-image-4.19.0-2-amd64-unsigned
    dpkg: erreur de traitement de l'archive /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-4.19.0-2-amd64-unsigned_4.19.16-1_amd64.deb (--unpack) :
    impossible d'ouvrir « /lib/modules/4.19.0-2-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/libcxgb/libcxgb.ko.dpkg-new »: Opération non permise

     

    Can't open the file, is it because the dpkg-new extension?

    After 

     

    systemctl stop sav-protect.service

     

    Everything is ok
