CVSS v3.1 |
| (1) core/tests/test_memmap.py, (2) core/tests/test_multiarray.py, (3) f2py/f2py2e.py, and (4) lib/tests/test_io.py in NumPy before 1.8.1 allow local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file. |
| On desktop, Ubuntu UI Toolkit's StateSaver would serialise data on tmp/ files which an attacker could use to expose potentially sensitive data. StateSaver would also open files without the O_EXCL flag. An attacker could exploit this to launch a symlink attack, though this is partially mitigated by symlink and hardlink restrictions in Ubuntu. Fixed in 1.1.1188+14.10.20140813.4-0ubuntu1. |
| Check_MK through 1.2.5i2p1 allows local users to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack to a file in /var/lib/check_mk_agent/job. |
| Perl module Data::UUID from CPAN version 1.219 vulnerable to symlink attacks |
| Gemalto Tokend 2013 has an Arbitrary File Creation/Overwrite Vulnerability |
| OpenSC OpenSC.tokend has an Arbitrary File Creation/Overwrite Vulnerability |
| Gambas before 3.4.0 allows remote attackers to move or manipulate directory contents or perform symlink attacks due to the creation of insecure temporary directories. |
| Lintian before 2.5.12 allows remote attackers to gather information about the "host" system using crafted symlinks. |
| The fedora-business-cards package before 1-0.1.beta1.fc17 on Fedora 17 and before 1-0.1.beta1.fc18 on Fedora 18 allows local users to cause a denial of service or write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on /tmp/fedora-business-cards-buffer.svg. |
| pithos before 0.3.5 allows overwrite of arbitrary files via symlinks. |
| mailscanner before 4.79.11-2.1 might allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on certain temporary files. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-5313. |
| rpcbind 0.2.0 allows local users to write to arbitrary files or gain privileges via a symlink attack on (1) /tmp/portmap.xdr and (2) /tmp/rpcbind.xdr. |
| The init script in autokey before 0.61.3-2 allows local attackers to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack. |
| alsa-utils 1.0.19 and later versions allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack via the /usr/bin/alsa-info and /usr/bin/alsa-info.sh scripts. |
| A symlink issue exists in Iceweasel-firegpg before 0.6 due to insecure tempfile handling. |
| IBM TXSeries for Multiplatforms 10.1 could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information from the query string of an HTTP GET method to process a request which could be obtained using man in the middle techniques. |
| A code injection vulnerability in the SecuSUITE Server Web Administration Portal of SecuSUITE versions 5.0.420 and earlier could allow an attacker to potentially inject script commands or other executable content into the server that would run with root privilege. |
| The Improper link resolution before file access ('Link Following') vulnerability in SonicWall Connect Tunnel (version 12.4.3.271 and earlier of Windows client) allows users with standard privileges to delete arbitrary folders and files, potentially leading to local privilege escalation attack. |
| A potential security vulnerability has been identified in the HP Hotkey Support software, which might allow local escalation of privilege. HP is releasing mitigation for the potential vulnerability. Customers using HP Programmable Key are recommended to update HP Hotkey Support. |
| VIPRE Advanced Security PMAgent Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of VIPRE Advanced Security. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the Patch Management Agent. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the agent to delete a file. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-22315. |
