[Vserver] CAN-2004-1235 anyone?

2005-01-11 Thread Gregory (Grisha) Trubetskoy
Is this something to worry about on vs 1.9.3 kernels?
http://isec.pl/vulnerabilities/isec-0021-uselib.txt
I saw Fedora released an updated kernel, though the comment at the 
beginning of the exploit code in the link above says tested only on 
2.4.x. I for one could get it to compile, though I didn't try very hard.

yep, local (vserver) root priviledge escalation is possible
AFAICT it's not possible to leave a vserver (at least not
without other exploits) ...
