Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : kernel (MDKSA-2000:012)

POSIX 'Capabilities' have recently been implemented in the Linux kernel. These 'Capabilities' are an additional form of privilege control to enable more specific control over what privileged processes can do. Capabilities are implemented as three fairly large bitfields, which each bit representin...

Design/Logic Flaw

The Linux kernel 2.6.33.2 and earlier, when a ReiserFS filesystem exists, does not restrict read or write access to the .reiserfspriv directory, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying 1 extended attributes or 2 ACLs, as demonstrated by deleting a file under .reiserfspriv/xattrs/...
