SCO UnixWare Ptrace Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

SCO UnixWare is prone to a local privilege-escalation vulnerability.

This issue allows local attackers to 'ptrace' privileged processes. Attackers may call arbitrary system calls, and then alter the behavior of the traced process, leading to a full system compromise.

SCO UnixWare 7.1.3 and 7.1.4 are vulnerable.
