+ <title>aRts: Privilege escalation</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ The artswrapper part of aRts allows local users to execute arbitrary code
+ with elevated privileges.
+ </synopsis>
+ <product type="ebuild">aRts</product>
+ <announced>June 22, 2006</announced>

+ <affected>
+ <package name="kde-base/arts" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">3.5.2-r1</unaffected>
+ <unaffected range="rge">3.4.3-r1</unaffected>
+ <vulnerable range="lt">3.5.2-r1</vulnerable>

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ aRts is a real time modular system for synthesizing audio used by KDE.
+ artswrapper is a helper application used to start the aRts daemon.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ artswrapper fails to properly check whether it can drop privileges
+ accordingly if setuid() fails due to a user exceeding assigned resource
+ limits.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ Local attackers could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary
+ code with elevated privileges. Note that the aRts package provided by
+ Gentoo is only vulnerable if the artswrappersuid USE-flag is enabled.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All aRts users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose kde-base/arts</code>
+ </resolution>
