Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 200907-10

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory GLSA 200907-10 – Syslog-ng does not properly initialize its chroot jail allowing for an escape if a separate vulnerability in Syslog-ng is exploited. Florian Grandel reported that Syslog-ng does not call chdir() before chroot() which leads to an inherited file descriptor to the current working directory. Versions less than 2.1.3 are affected.
