Improper Group Permissions on Core Dump Files in ABRT C Handler Plug-in

CVE-2012-1106 · LOW Severity

AV:L/AC:M/AU:N/C:P/I:N/A:N

The C handler plug-in in Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (ABRT), possibly 2.0.8 and earlier, does not properly set the group (GID) permissions on core dump files for setuid programs when the sysctl fs.suid_dumpable option is set to 2, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.
