Descriptions

The ptsname function in FreeBSD 6.0 through 7.0-PRERELEASE does not properly verify that a certain portion of a device name is associated with a pty of a user who is calling the pt_chown function, which might allow local users to read data from the pty from another user.

La función ptsname en FreeBSD 6.0 hasta el 7.0-PRERELEASE no verifica de forma adecuada que una cierta porción de un nombre de dispositivo está asociado con un pty de un usuario quien está llamando a la función, la cual podría permitir a usuarios locales leer datos del pty desde otro usuario.
