NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mtr-gtk-debuginfo package and not the mtr-gtk-debuginfo package as distributed by Amazon-Linux. See How to fix? for Amazon-Linux:2023 relevant fixed versions and status.

mtr through 0.95, in certain privileged contexts, mishandles execution of a program specified by the MTR_PACKET environment variable. NOTE: mtr on macOS may often have Sudo rules, as an indirect consequence of Homebrew not installing setuid binaries.
