Kod programskog paketa LogWatch, distribuiranog s operacijskim sustavima Fedora 13, 14 i 15, uočen je novi sigurnosni nedostatak. Radi se o prilagodljivom alatu namijenjenom nadzoru logova na računalu. Problem se javlja prilikom obrade datoteka koje sadrže specijalne znakove u svom nazivu. Udaljeni napadač može iskoristiti navedeni propust za povećanje ovlasti na ranjivom sustavu i pokretanje proizvoljnih naredbi. Budući da je dostupna odgovarajuća programska nadogradnja, svi se korisnici spomenutog paketa potiču na njenu primjenu.
