| Package | Affected versions | Patched versions |
|---|---|---|
| needrestart | ≥ 0.8, < 3.6 | 3.6 |
needrestart 0.8 through 3.5 before 3.6 is prone to local privilege escalation. Regexes to detect the Perl, Python, and Ruby interpreters are not anchored, allowing a local user to escalate privileges when needrestart tries to detect if interpreters are using old source files.
