Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization (Race Condition) A race condition in the nginx module in Phusion Passenger allows local escalation of privileges when a non-standard `passenger_instance_registry_dir` with insufficiently strict permissions is configured. Replacing a file with a symlink after the file was created, but before it was chowned, leads to the target of the link being chowned via the path. Targeting sensitive files such as root's crontab file allows privilege escalation.

Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource An issue was discovered in Phusion Passenger. The set of groups (gidset) is not set correctly, leaving it up to randomness (i.e., uninitialized memory) which supplementary groups are actually being set while lowering privileges.
