This PR creates a REST service for access to
smartctl
.This second route uses
smartctl --scan
to get an allow-list, and if the provided does not match an entry on the list of allowed devices, an empty object{}
will be returned instead.smartctl
can scan for devices as a user, but information about a specific device requires elevated permissions.This service can be run with elevated permissions, and ensure only well-formed commands are issued.
