Descriptions

The RBAC functionality in grsecurity before 2.1.11-2.6.24.5 and 2.1.11-2.4.36.2 does not enforce user_transition_deny and user_transition_allow rules for the (1) sys_setfsuid and (2) sys_setfsgid calls, which allows local users to bypass restrictions for those calls.

la funcionalidad RBAC en grsecurity anterior a 2.1.11-2.6.24.5 y 2.1.11-2.4.36.2, no refuerza adecuadamente las reglas de user_transition_deny y user_transition_allow para las llamadas a (1) sys_setfsuid y (2) sys_setfsgid, lo que permite a usuarios locales evitar ciertas restricciones para esas llamadas.
