Summary
Fix high severity security issue in
pkg/trace/tracer.go.Vulnerability
V-003pkg/trace/tracer.go:274Description: The application integrates libbpfgo (v0.9.2) and resurgo (v0.4.2) to load and execute eBPF programs, which requires CAP_BPF or CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges. The security assessment does not confirm that the application drops these elevated capabilities after the BPF programs are loaded, meaning the entire process lifetime (including file I/O, argument parsing, and report generation) runs with kernel-level privileges. This privilege retention critically amplifies the impact of all other vulnerabilities in the application: the path traversal findings (V-001, V-002) become capable of overwriting any file on the system when combined with root/CAP_SYS_ADMIN execution. Additionally, the eBPF tracing capability can observe sensitive data from all processes on the system.
