18.5.2 - Can't execute scripts anymore

Ryan Partington

We've been using a speed test script for years on our SG/XGs, just a heads up from 18.5.2 we now get permission denied.

Just to be sure, ran it on another 18.5.1 box, worked. Upgraded to 18.5.2, permission denied. May be worth checking any quality of life scripts you use to see if you're affected.

    wget was removed on the appliance. Does your script use wget?

    "curl" is blocked too, but actually, I don't think curl or wget are blocked, as I can wget or curl down the original file fine from the command line, it's just when I run the script I get permission denied, even if I remove the #!/bin/sh first line.

    So looks like calling an executable file in any way is blocked, is there a work around? Even if I remove the .sh extension, it's still permission denied

    You need to give execute permission with chmod +x ns_speedtest_v4.sh

    Example:

    XG115w_XN03_SFOS 19.0.0 EAP1-Build244# vim test.sh
XG115w_XN03_SFOS 19.0.0 EAP1-Build244# ./test.sh
/bin/sh: ./test.sh: Permission denied
XG115w_XN03_SFOS 19.0.0 EAP1-Build244# chmod +x test.sh
XG115w_XN03_SFOS 19.0.0 EAP1-Build244# ./test.sh

    sorry i'd left that bit out of screenshot, same issue. Maybe it works on v19, do you have any 18.5.2's to try:

    Could be additional enhancements to protect the system itself. V19.0 EAP1 is not on the same stage of release cycle like MR2. 

    The question remains, why would anybody execute scripts?
