NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream flower package and not the flower package as distributed by Debian.
flower.initd in the Gentoo dev-python/flower package before 0.9.1-r1 for Celery Flower sets PID file ownership to a non-root account, which might allow local users to kill arbitrary processes by leveraging access to this non-root account for PID file modification before a root script executes a "kill cat /pathname" command.
