  - A vulnerability has been identified in the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) package, stemming from the mixed     privilege levels utilized by systemd services associated with PCP. While certain services operate within     the confines of limited PCP user/group privileges, others are granted full root privileges. This disparity     in privilege levels poses a risk when privileged root processes interact with directories or directory     trees owned by unprivileged PCP users. Specifically, this vulnerability may lead to the compromise of PCP     user isolation and facilitate local PCP-to-root exploits, particularly through symlink attacks. These     vulnerabilities underscore the importance of maintaining robust privilege separation mechanisms within PCP     to mitigate the potential for unauthorized privilege escalation. (CVE-2023-6917)
