Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2011:0293 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Moderate: Red Hat Directory Server security update 2011-02-22 17:46:00 UTC

Description Jan Lieskovsky 2011-01-20 18:14:09 UTC 
It was discovered that 389 / Red Hat Directory Server's setup scripts
set insecure permissions (0777) on the /var/run/dirsrv directory used to
store Directory Server's pid files when multiple Directory Server
instances were configured on the system to be run under the different
unprivileged users.

A local user could use this flaw to create, remove or replace pid files
in this directory, possibly preventing correct start of the Directory
Server instances, or causing Directory Server init script to kill
arbitrary process during the Directory Server shutdown.
