Descriptions

The pam_sm_close_session function in pam_xauth.c in the pam_xauth module in Linux-PAM (aka pam) 1.1.2 and earlier does not properly handle a failure to determine a certain target uid, which might allow local users to delete unintended files by executing a program that relies on the pam_xauth PAM check.

La función pam_sm_close_session en pam_xauth.c en el módulo pam_xauth en Linux-PAM (también conocido como pam) v1.1.2 y anteriores no maneja adecuadamente una característica para determinar un cierto objetivo UID, lo que permite a usuarios locales borrar archivos no buscados ejecutando un programa que confía en la comprobación del pam_xauth PAM.
