Package: monkey
Version: 0.9.3-1
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole
Monkey webserver fails to drop supplemental groups when lowering privileges.
This allows any local user on the system to read any fine that root's
supplemental
groups can access. Monkey does perform a filesystem access check to make sure
that its EUID/EGID can access the target file, but this check is subject to
TOCTOU flaws.
