Subject: [PATCH] Harden dracut against BASH_ENV environment variable
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When dracut silently produces a broken initramfs, then the system will
likely not boot and this can be very problematic. Typical use case is
after the kernel has been updated.

It appears that dracut is not protected against the BASH_ENV variable,
causing various scripts called by dracut to possibly fail or provide
wrong output (e.g. "ldd" is one of these).
Having a broken output for "ldd" makes the generated initramfs be not
usable, typically because vital binaries will be missing (e.g.
"awk", "udevadm", ...).

Note: because the shebang line cannot contain more than one argument,
the '--norc' option had to be removed. IMHO, it was useless anyway.
