Descriptions
The issetugid system call in the Linux compatibility layer in FreeBSD 9.3, 10.1, and 10.2 allows local users to gain privilege via unspecified vectors.
La llamada de sistema issetugid en la capa de compatibilidad de Linux en FreeBSD 9.3, 10.1 y 10.2 permite a usuarios locales obtener privilegios a través de vectores no especificados.
A programming error in the Linux compatibility layer could cause the issetugid(2) system call to return incorrect information. If an application relies on output of the issetugid(2) system call and that information is incorrect, this could lead to a privilege escalation.
