https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-987
https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-1002
Description:
Previous versions of the rmake package do not drop supplemental users
in the changeroot environment for builds. This provides malicious
packages with excess permissions that are configuration-dependent,
and may allow local users to run arbitrary code as the root user.
29 January 2007 Update: An audit uncovered one other part of rMake
that contained a similar issue, enabling local users to provide
malicious recipes that enable the same type of attack. rMake 1.0.4
resolves both issues.
