Descriptions

A flaw exists in OpenBSD's implementation of the stack guard page that allows attackers to bypass it resulting in arbitrary code execution using setuid binaries such as /usr/bin/at. This affects OpenBSD 6.1 and possibly earlier versions.

Existe un error en la implementación de OpenBSD de la página stack guard que permite que los atacantes la omitan, lo que resulta en la ejecución de código arbitrario mediante el uso de binarios setuid como /usr/bin/at. Esto afecta a OpenBSD 6.1 y posiblemente a versiones anteriores.

Qualys has released a large amount of research surrounding the use of stack clash vulnerabilities and how stack guard on Linux can be bypassed.
