|
| 18 |
gpg needs to be setuid to make use of protected memory space, however the |
| 19 |
setgid bit allowed gpg user to overwrite goup root writable files and is |
| 20 |
therefor unnecessary. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
SOLUTION |

|
| 24 |
It is recommended that all Gentoo Linux users who are running |
| 25 |
