Subject: [multipathd] /var/run/multipathd.sock is world-writable
X-Git-Url: http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux%2Fstorage%2Fmultipath-tools%2F.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=0a0319d381249760c71023edbe0ac9c093bb4a74;hp=15d4bdddcb9b71e0ec6fecc3c37a1b8cae8f51ff

[multipathd] /var/run/multipathd.sock is world-writable

Due to an stray 'umask()' the socket file is in fact world-writable,
allowing for an easy exploit.
