Synopsis
========

A vulnerability in Bash may allow users to escalate privileges.

Background
==========

Bash is the standard GNU Bourne Again SHell.

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

     -------------------------------------------------------------------
      Package              /     Vulnerable     /            Unaffected

   1  app-shells/bash            < 5.0_p11-r1            >= 5.0_p11-r1

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

It was discovered that Bash incorrectly dropped privileges by setting
its effective UID to its real UID.

Impact
======

A local attacker could possibly escalate privileges.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All Bash users should upgrade to the latest version:

   # emerge --sync
   # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-shells/bash-5.0_p11-r1"
