VULHUB ™

FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE ships with Seyon, a communications program which is known to have several vulnerabilities which can allow for a malicious user to elevate priviliges. The vulnerability, however, is that seyon is still installed setgid dialer in FreeBSD. When seyon is exploited, a local user can grant him/herself priviliges which allow access to the communications devices or anything else accessable by the group dialer.
