Title: Debian /usr/bin/suidexec Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
/usr/bin/suidexec will execute arbitrary commands as root,
as soon as just _one_ suid root shell script can be found
on the system: Just invoke
/usr/bin/suidexec <your program> /path/to/script
- it will happily execute your program with euid = 0. This
is completely sufficient for doing arbitrary damage on the
system.
Affected Products:
- Debian Linux 2.0.0
- Debian suidmanager 0.18.0
