** Description changed: - [chown() was racy relative to execve()] + Race condition in the prepare_binprm function in fs/exec.c in the Linux + kernel before 3.19.6 allows local users to gain privileges by executing + a setuid program at a time instant when a chown to root is in progress, + and the ownership is changed but the setuid bit is not yet stripped. Break-Fix: - 8b01fc86b9f425899f8a3a8fc1c47d73c2c20543
