Descriptions
The trace functionality in libvdpau before 1.1.1, when used in a setuid or setgid application, allows local users to write to arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.
Vulnerabilidad en la funcionalidad de rastreo en libvdpau en versiones anteriores a 1.1.1, cuando se usa como una aplicación setuid o setgid, permite a usuarios locales escribir archivos arbitrarios a través de vectores no especificados.
Florian Weimer of Red Hat Product Security discovered that libvdpau, the VDPAU wrapper library, did not properly validate environment variables, allowing local attackers to gain additional privileges.
