Package : ppxp
Vulnerability : missing privilege release
Problem-Type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2005-0392
Jens Steube discovered that ppxp, yet another PPP program, does not
release root privileges when opening potentially user supplied log
files. This can be tricked into opening a root shell.
