Descriptions
The Gentoo net-im/jabberd2 package through 2.6.1 sets the ownership of /var/run/jabber to the jabber account, which might allow local users to kill arbitrary processes by leveraging access to this account for PID file modification before a root script executes a "kill -TERM `cat /var/run/jabber/filename.pid`" command.
El paquete net-im/jabberd2 de Gentoo, hasta la versión 2.6.1, establece la propiedad de /var/run/jabber en la cuenta jabber, lo que podría permitir que usuarios locales finalicen procesos arbitrarios aprovechando el acceso a esta cuenta para modificar archivos PID antes de que un script root ejecute un comando "kill -TERM `cat /var/run/jabber/filename.pid`"
