DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2018-03-19 CVE-2017-18240 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Collectd
The Gentoo app-admin/collectd package before 5.7.2-r1 sets the ownership of PID file directory to the collectd account, which might allow local users to kill arbitrary processes by leveraging access to this account for PID file modification before a root script sends a SIGKILL (when the service is stopped).
