Package: open-iscsi
Tags: security

A minor DoS vulnerability has been discovered in open-iscsi:

| usr/log.c in iscsid in open-iscsi (iscsi-initiator-utils) before
| 2.0-865 uses a semaphore with insecure permissions
| (world-writable/world-readable) for managing log messages using shared
| memory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang)
| by grabbing the semaphore.

I don't know if this is worth a security update for stable.

Please mention the name CVE-2007-3100 in the changelog when fixing
this bug.
