CVE-2013-7135 (2014-01-28)

The Proc::Daemon module 0.14 for Perl uses world-writable permissions for a file that stores a process ID, which allows local users to have an unspecified impact by modifying this file.

Changes for version 0.06

  • A lot of documentation was add to the source code.
  • Daemon STDIN was fixed to "read" now instead of "write".
  • Replaced global filehandles with scalars.
  • Add a <die> if <chdir> fails.
  • Updated the documentation and add a note to the documentation about the behavior of process-group Signals.
