GNU inetutils before 2.5 may allow privilege escalation because of
unchecked return values of set*id() family functions in ftpd, rcp, rlogin,
rsh, rshd, and uucpd. This is, for example, relevant if the setuid system
call fails when a process is trying to drop privileges before letting an
ordinary user control the activities of the process.
