Descriptions

pam_namespace.c in the pam_namespace module in Linux-PAM (aka pam) before 1.1.3 uses the environment of the invoking application or service during execution of the namespace.init script, which might allow local users to gain privileges by running a setuid program that relies on the pam_namespace PAM check, as demonstrated by the sudo program.

pam_namespace.c en el módulo pam_namespace para Linux-PAM (también conocido como PAM) anterior a v1.1.3 utiliza el entorno de invocación de la aplicación o servicio durante la ejecución de la secuencia de comandos namespace.init, lo que podría permitir a usuarios locales obtener privilegios mediante la ejecución de un programa setuid que se basa en la comprobación de pam_namespace, como lo demuestra el programa sudo.
