Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Sun OpenSolaris versions snv 100 through snv 101

Description The issue allows local users with privileges in a non-global zone to execute arbitrary code in the global zone. This can occur when a global-zone user is using mdb on a non-global zone process.

Recommendations For versions snv 100 through snv 101, consider restricting the use of mdb on non-global zone processes until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, limit privileges for non-global zone users to minimize the risk of exploitation.
