Synopsis
========
A DTrace component, dtprobed, allows arbitrary file creation through
crafted USDT provider names.
Background
==========
DTrace is a dynamic tracing tool for analysing or debugging the whole
system. Specifically, dtprobed is a component of the DTrace system that
keeps track of USDT probes within running processes, parsing and storing
the DOF they provide for later consumption by dtrace proper.
Affected packages
=================
Package Vulnerable Unaffected
---------------- ------------ ------------
dev-debug/dtrace < 2.0.6 >= 2.0.6
Description
===========
A vulnerability has been found in dtprobed that allows for arbitrary
file creation through specially crafted USDT provider names.
Impact
======
The worst possible outcome is the ability for an attacker to run
arbitrary code via the maliciously created file.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All DTrace users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-debug/dtrace-2.0.6"
