In my program, I want to call `update_prebinding' programmatically and possibly track it's progress. But whenever the program gets to this call, I get the following message from Perl.

"Insecure dependency in system while running setuid at /usr/bin/ update_prebinding line 55."

Now as I understand it, Perl is having issues with the command in the script which executes `update_prebinding_core', the binary which actually does the work. But shouldn't it only be acting this way in Taint mode? The Taint flag isn't present in the `update_prebinding' script.

Is there any way to execute this script? The process calling it is a SetUID tool, so proper permissions are in place.

Running SUID triggers Taint mode automatically in Perl, even without the -T.


But it may not matter, because prebinding has been deprecated as of Tiger. Have a look at:
