  It was discovered that acpid could create its log file ('/var/log/acpid')
  with random permissions on some systems. A local attacker could use this
  flaw to escalate their privileges if the log file was created as
  world-writable and with the setuid or setgid bit set. (CVE-2009-4033)

  Please note that this flaw was due to a Red Hat-specific patch
  (acpid-1.0.4-fd.patch) included in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 acpid
  package.
