Users of the Phusion Passenger Watchdog module, especially for Plesk and CPanel packages, are recommended to update to the latest version as soon as possible.

The vulnerability potentially allows local privilege escalation: an attacker with access to a normal, logged-in user account could gain root-level access to the server.

Both Plesk and CPanel have patched packages available.

No CVE has been assigned at time of writing. Links to original reports and recomended steps are on the Plesk Advisory and the CPanel Advisory
