CVE-2017-14483

CVE-2017-14483 affects the Gentoo dev-python/flower package prior to 0.9.1-r1. The issue arises in flower.initd where the PID file is created with ownership by a non-root account. This can allow local users to terminate arbitrary processes by exploiting access to that non-root account to modify t...

Updated libxdmcp packages fix security vulnerability

XDM uses weak entropy to generate the session keys on non BSD systems. On multi user systems it might possible to check the PID of the process and how long it is running to get an estimate of these values, which could allow an attacker to attach to the session of a different user CVE-2017-2625...
