CVE ID:	CVE-2007-6206
Description:	The do_coredump function in fs/exec.c in Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x up to 2.6.24-rc3, and possibly other versions, does not change the UID of a core dump file if it exists before a root process creates a core dump in the same location, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information.
Test IDs:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.60047
