Package : torque
CVE ID : CVE-2014-3684
Debian Bug : 763922
Chad Vizino reported a vulnerability in torque, a PBS-derived batch
processing queueing system. A non-root user could exploit the flaw in
the tm_adopt() library call to kill any process, including root-owned
ones on any node in a job.
For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.4.16+dfsg-1+deb7u4.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.4.16+dfsg-1.5.
We recommend that you upgrade your torque packages.
