Subject: CVE Request: qemu -runas does not clear supplementary groups
There's a missing initgroups() call in qemu in the -runas
argument handling. Details are available on
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/807893
in short, -runas is supposed to reduce privileges to a
bare minimum (after all initialization is completed),
but the process still has all the supplementary groups
which should be dropped too.
Can a CVE id be assigned for this issue?
Thanks,
/mjt
