Description |
BSD contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to gain access to unauthorized privileges. The issue is triggered when the native bsd C language compiler translates chown(path, owner) in ex3.7preserve as chown(path, owner, 0), which permits the creation of a file in group 0. This flaw may lead to a loss of integrity.
