[Bug 1244635] Re: setuid executables in a container may compromise security on the host

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package lxc - 1.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu13

---------------
lxc (1.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu13) saucy-proposed; urgency=low

  * debian/rules and debian/lxc.postinst: set /var/lib/lxc and /var/cache/lxc
    to be perms 700.  That prevents unprivileged users from running setuid-root
    applications.  Install that way by default, and for any previous versions,
    update the permissions.  After this version, respect the user's choice.
