Descriptions

main.c in Tinyproxy 1.8.4 and earlier creates a /run/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.pid file after dropping privileges to a non-root account, which might allow local users to kill arbitrary processes by leveraging access to this non-root account for tinyproxy.pid modification before a root script executes a "kill `cat /run/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.pid`" command.

El archivo main.c en Tinyproxy versión 1.8.4 y anteriores, crea un archivo /run/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.pid después de quitar los privilegios a una cuenta no root, lo que podría permitir a los usuarios locales eliminar procesos arbitrarios mediante el aprovechamiento del acceso a esta cuenta no root para la modificación de Tinyproxy.pid antes de que un script root ejecute el comando "kill` cat/run/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.pid`".
