Synopsis ========
Improper file ownership may allow a member of the tomcat group to execute scripts as root.
Background ==========
Tomcat is the Apache Jakarta Project's official implementation of Java Servlets and Java Server Pages.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 net-www/tomcat < 5.0.27-r3 >= 5.0.27-r3 *>= 4.1.30-r4 *>= 3.3.2-r2
Description ===========
The Gentoo ebuild for Tomcat sets the ownership of the Tomcat init scripts as tomcat:tomcat, but those scripts are executed with root privileges when the system is started. This may allow a member of the tomcat group to run arbitrary code with root privileges when the Tomcat init scripts are run.
Impact ======
This could lead to a local privilege escalation or root compromise by authenticated users.
Workaround ==========
Users may change the ownership of /etc/init.d/tomcat* and /etc/conf.d/tomcat* to be root:root:
# chown -R root:root /etc/init.d/tomcat* # chown -R root:root /etc/conf.d/tomcat*
Resolution ==========
All Tomcat users can upgrade to the latest stable version, or simply apply the workaround:
# emerge sync # emerge -pv ">=net-www/tomcat-5.0.27-r3" # emerge ">=net-www/tomcat-5.0.27-r3"
Availability ============
This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website:

Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us. Any security concerns should be addressed to security@gentoo.org or alternatively, you may file a bug at http://bugs.gentoo.org.
