CVSS v3.1 |
| The (1) config.guess, (2) contrib/groffer/perl/groffer.pl, and (3) contrib/groffer/perl/roff2.pl scripts in GNU troff (aka groff) 1.21 and earlier use an insufficient number of X characters in the template argument to the tempfile function, which makes it easier for local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-0969. |
| The (1) configure and (2) config.guess scripts in GNU troff (aka groff) 1.20.1 on Openwall GNU/*/Linux (aka Owl) improperly create temporary files upon a failure of the mktemp function, which makes it easier for local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file. |
| Bournal before 1.4.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on unspecified temporary files associated with a --hack_the_gibson update check. |
| client/mount.cifs.c in mount.cifs in smbfs in Samba 3.0.22, 3.0.28a, 3.2.3, 3.3.2, 3.4.0, and 3.4.5 allows local users to mount a CIFS share on an arbitrary mountpoint, and gain privileges, via a symlink attack on the mountpoint directory file. |
| ncpfs 2.2.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, or possibly gain privileges via symlink attacks involving the (1) ncpmount and (2) ncpumount programs. |
| fusermount in FUSE before 2.7.5, and 2.8.x before 2.8.2, allows local users to unmount an arbitrary FUSE filesystem share via a symlink attack on a mountpoint. |
| fcrontab in fcron before 3.0.5 allows local users to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack on an unspecified file. |
| pam_motd (aka the MOTD module) in libpam-modules before 1.1.0-2ubuntu1.1 in PAM on Ubuntu 9.10 and libpam-modules before 1.1.1-2ubuntu5 in PAM on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS allows local users to change the ownership of arbitrary files via a symlink attack on .cache in a user's home directory, related to "user file stamps" and the motd.legal-notice file. |
| MySQL before 5.1.46 allows local users to delete the data and index files of another user's MyISAM table via a symlink attack in conjunction with the DROP TABLE command, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-4098 and CVE-2008-7247. |
| The play_wave_from_socket function in audio/auserver.c in Flite 1.4 allows local users to modify arbitrary files via a symlink attack on /tmp/awb.wav. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information. |
| base/pkit.py in HP Linux Imaging and Printing (HPLIP) through 3.13.11 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/hp-pkservice.log temporary file. |
| userpref.c in libimobiledevice 1.1.4, when $HOME and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME are not set, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) HostCertificate.pem, (2) HostPrivateKey.pem, (3) libimobiledevicerc, (4) RootCertificate.pem, or (5) RootPrivateKey.pem in /tmp/root/.config/libimobiledevice/. |
| The (1) contrib/eqn2graph/eqn2graph.sh, (2) contrib/grap2graph/grap2graph.sh, and (3) contrib/pic2graph/pic2graph.sh scripts in GNU troff (aka groff) 1.21 and earlier do not properly handle certain failed attempts to create temporary directories, which might allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in a temporary directory, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-1296. |
| nagios.upgrade_to_v3.sh, as distributed by Red Hat and possibly others for Nagios Core 3.4.4, 3.5.1, and earlier, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary nagioscfg file with a predictable name in /tmp/. |
| The (1) tomcat5, (2) tomcat6, and (3) tomcat7 init scripts, as used in the RPM distribution of Tomcat for JBoss Enterprise Web Server 1.0.2 and 2.0.0, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6, allow local users to change the ownership of arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (a) tomcat5-initd.log, (b) tomcat6-initd.log, (c) catalina.out, or (d) tomcat7-initd.log. |
| A certain Debian patch for txt2man 1.5.5, as used in txt2man 1.5.5-2, 1.5.5-4, and others, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on /tmp/2222. |
| (1) contrib/gforge-3.0-cronjobs.patch, (2) cronjobs/homedirs.php, (3) deb-specific/fileforge.pl, (4) deb-specific/group_dump_update.pl, (5) deb-specific/ssh_dump_update.pl, (6) deb-specific/user_dump_update.pl, (7) plugins/scmbzr/common/BzrPlugin.class.php, (8) plugins/scmcvs/common/CVSPlugin.class.php, (9) plugins/scmcvs/cronjobs/cvs.php, (10) plugins/scmcvs/cronjobs/ssh_create.php, (11) plugins/scmgit/common/GitPlugin.class.php, (12) plugins/scmsvn/common/SVNPlugin.class.php, (13) plugins/wiki/cronjobs/create_groups.php, (14) utils/cvs1/cvscreate.sh, and (15) utils/include.pl in FusionForge 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2 allows local users to change arbitrary file permissions, obtain sensitive information, and have other unspecified impacts via a (1) symlink or (2) hard link attack on certain files. |
| android-tools 4.1.1 in Android Debug Bridge (ADB) allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on /tmp/adb.log. |
| welcome.py in xdiagnose before 2.5.2ubuntu0.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file with a predictable name in /tmp. |
| Monkey HTTP Daemon 0.9.3 might allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a PID file, as demonstrated by a pathname different from the default /var/run/monkey.pid pathname. |
