elevated-privileges

This executable does not run with the identity of the user who executes it. It runs instead with its owner ID in the file system or with its group ID, or both.

This security-relevant setting is intentional for programs that regularly acquire elevated privileges, such as /bin/su, but can be a significant risk when it the setting is not intended.

Please override if needed.

Severity: warning
Experimental: false
Renamed from: setuid-binary, setgid-binary, setuid-gid-binary
