[Bug 1169604] Re: set permission to og+rx on working directory to allow test execution by any user

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

The case I'm trying to address, is a test running as root to prepare the
test environment (for example start/stop services) then drop privileges
to another user with 'su' to run the actual testsuite.

Title:
  set permission to og+rx on working directory to allow test execution
  by any user

Status in “autopkgtest” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  adt-run creates a working directory with mktemp in /tmp/ e.g /tmp/tmp.XXXXXX which is set to the default permissions u+rwx.
  This makes impossible to execute tests with another user than the user who started the tests or root.

  permissions should be changed to og+rx for this directory.
