**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** splitvt versions 1.6.6 and earlier **Description** The issue allows local users to gain privileges due to the failure of misc.c in splitvt to drop group privileges before executing xprop. **Recommendations** For splitvt versions 1.6.6 and earlier, consider dropping group privileges manually before executing xprop as a temporary workaround. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
