IBM AIXs Unix domain (AIX 7.2, 7.3, VIOS 3.1, and VIOS 4.1) datagram socket implementation could potentially expose applications using Unix domain datagram sockets with SO_PEERID operation and may lead to privilege escalation. IBM X-Force ID: 284903.
A product incorrectly assigns a privilege to a particular actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
