Max Vozeler discovered a format string vulnerability in super, a
program to allow specified users to execute commands with root
privileges.  This vulnerability could potentially be exploited by a
local user to execute arbitrary code with root privileges.

Why is the problem remote, when it can be exploited by a local user?
