Description
This exploit takes advantage of xglance-bin, part of HP's Glance (or Performance Monitoring) version 11 'and subsequent' , which was compiled with an insecure RPATH option. The RPATH includes a relative path to -L/lib64/ which can be controlled by a user. Creating libraries in this location will result in an escalation of privileges to root.
