Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Preservation of Permissions in the execve plugin. An attacker can execute the execve() plugin in deployments where this was explicitly forbidden by configuring the prevent_execve flag in the configuration file.
Note:
This is only exploitable if the prevent_execve flag is set, which is not commonly recommended.
