Message-ID: <OF51A49383.B5D44458-ON85256E60.006016A7-85256E60.0060C8A4@epamail.epa.gov> From: Sullivan.Danielj at epamail.epa.gov (Sullivan.Danielj@...mail.epa.gov) Subject: AIX 4.3.3 has make sgid 0? The "make" to worry about appears to be the one in /usr/local/bin, not /usr/ccs/bin. See the sample exploit script at the usual spot. The problem appears to be with GNU's make, which is installed setgid (by default) on AIX so as to enable the "-l load" option. This option is used to throttle the number of jobs created by "make" as the system load increases (especially during parallel makes). I haven't checked whether /usr/local/bin/make is part of some supplemental AIX package, or just happens to be on those systems where the admin installed GNU make. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
