Severity: Normal
Title: libuv: Privilege escalation
Date: November 17, 2016
Bugs: #540826
ID: 201611-10

Synopsis
========

A vulnerability in libuv could lead to privilege escalation.

Background
==========

libuv is a multi-platform support library with a focus on asynchronous
I/O.

Affected packages
=================

——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 dev-libs/libuv < 1.4.2 >= 1.4.2

Description
===========

It was discovered that libuv does not call setgroups before calling
setuid/setgid. If this is not called, then even though the uid has
been dropped, there may still be groups associated that permit
superuser privileges.

Impact
======

Context-dependent attackers could escalate privileges via unspecified
vectors.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All libuv users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –verbose –oneshot “>=dev-libs/libuv-1.4.2”

References
==========
