NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cgmanager package and not the cgmanager package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

cmanager 0.32 does not properly enforce nesting when modifying cgroup properties, which allows local users to set cgroup values for all cgroups via unspecified vectors.
