+ <title>NetHack, Slash'EM, Falcon's Eye: Local privilege escalation</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ NetHack, Slash'EM and Falcon's Eye are vulnerable to local privilege
+ escalation vulnerabilities that could potentially allow the execution of
+ arbitrary code as other users.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ NetHack is the classic single player dungeon exploration game. Slash'EM
+ and Falcon's Eye are NetHack variants.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ NetHack, Slash'EM and Falcon's Eye have been found to be incompatible
+ with the system used for managing games on Gentoo Linux. As a result,
+ they cannot be played securely on systems with multiple users.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A local user who is a member of group "games" may be able to modify the
+ state data used by NetHack, Slash'EM or Falcon's Eye to trigger the
+ execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of other players.
+ Additionally, the games may create save game files in a manner not
+ suitable for use on Gentoo Linux, potentially allowing a local user to
+ create or overwrite files with the permissions of other players.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ Do not add untrusted users to the "games" group.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ NetHack has been masked in Portage pending the resolution of these
+ issues. Vulnerable NetHack users are advised to uninstall the package
+ until further notice.
