Linux >= 2.6.13 prctl kernel exploit
This patch mainly adds suidsafe to suid_dumpable sysctl but also a new per process, user setable argument to PR_SET_DUMPABLE. This flaw allows us to create a root owned coredump into any directory. This is trivially exploitable.
Mitigation:
Update the kernel version to the latest version.
