CVE-2018-16888 severity moderate: SUSE including 10 source package names (libgudev1-219-67.el7, libgudev1-devel-219-67.el7, …), 10 product×package rows across 1 product lines (SUSE Liberty Linux 7): Fixed 10.
It was discovered systemd does not correctly check the content of PIDFile files before using it to kill processes. When a service is run from an unprivileged user (e.g. User field set in the service file), a local attacker who is able to write to the PIDFile of the mentioned service may use this flaw to trick systemd into killing other services and/or privileged processes. Versions before v237 are vulnerable.
