Description The my popenv impl and my spawnv functions in src/condor utils/my popen.cpp and the systemCommand function in condor vm-gahp/vmgahp common.cpp do not properly check the return value of setuid calls, which might cause a subprocess to be created with root privileges and allow remote attackers to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
