<p>
|
|
Florian Grandel reported that Syslog-ng does not call chdir() before
|
|
chroot() which leads to an inherited file descriptor to the current
|
|
working directory.

A local attacker might exploit a separate vulnerability in Syslog-ng
|
|
and use this vulnerability to escape the chroot jail.
