TORQUE is a resource manager providing control over batch jobs and
|
|
distributed compute nodes.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
TORQUE creates temporary files with predictable names. Please note that
|
|
the TORQUE package shipped in Gentoo Portage is not vulnerable in the
|
|
default configuration. Only systems with more permissive access rights
|
|
to the spool directory are vulnerable.
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
|
<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A local attacker could create links in the temporary file directory,
|
|
pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. This could lead
|
|
to the execution of arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Ensure that untrusted users don't have write access to the spool
|
|
directory.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All TORQUE users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=sys-cluster/torque-2.1.6"</code>
