rPath Security Advisory: 2007-0020-1 Published: 2007-01-25 Products: rPath Linux 1 Rating: Severe Exposure Level Classification: Local Root Deterministic Privilege Escalation Updated Versions: rmake=/conary.rpath.com@rpl:devel//1/1.0.3-2-0.1 References: https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-987 Description: Previous versions of the rmake package do not drop supplemental users in the changeroot environment for builds. This provides malicious packages with excess permissions that are configuration-dependent, and may allow local users to run arbitrary code as the root user. _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
