>Description:
This is a follow up to security/36746, which was fixed by making
location of pkg_info binary configurable.
Since that time /etc/security started using pkg_admin, which has the
same problem. And /etc/daily also started using pkg_info and pkg_admin
with the same results.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install pkgtools/pkg_install package.
Disable pkg_install in base (/usr/sbin) by making it non-executable.
Observe daily and security failing with:
/etc/daily: pkg_info: permission denied
/etc/security: pkg_admin: permission denied
