CVE-2017-11747
main.c in Tinyproxy created a /var/run/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.pid file after dropping privileges to a non-root account, which might have allowed local users to kill arbitrary processes by leveraging access to this non-root account for tinyproxy.pid modification before a root script executed a 'kill `cat /run/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.pid`' command.
OTHER
Furthermore, a severe flaw had been discovered by Tim Duesterhus in Debian's init script for tinyproxy. With the tiny.conf configuration file having the PidFile option removed, the next run of logrotate (if installed) would have changed the owner of the system's base directory ('/') to tinyproxy:tinyproxy.
For Debian 8 Jessie, this problem has been fixed in version 1.8.3-3+deb8u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your tinyproxy packages.
