CVSS v3.1 |
| GNU patch 2.7.1 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack in a patch file. |
| acinclude.m4, as used in the configure script in PHP 5.5.13 and earlier, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/phpglibccheck file. |
| The create_script function in the lxc_container module in Ansible before 1.9.6-1 and 2.x before 2.0.2.0 allows local users to write to arbitrary files or gain privileges via a symlink attack on (1) /opt/.lxc-attach-script, (2) the archived container in the archive_path directory, or the (3) lxc-attach-script.log or (4) lxc-attach-script.err files in the temporary directory. |
| base/logging.c in Nagios Core before 4.2.4 allows local users with access to an account in the nagios group to gain root privileges via a symlink attack on the log file. NOTE: this can be leveraged by remote attackers using CVE-2016-9565. |
| include/tests_webservers in Lynis before 1.5.5 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/lynis.*.unsorted file with an easily determined name. |
| IBM BigFix Remote Control before 9.1.3 allows local users to obtain sensitive information by leveraging unspecified privileges to read a log file. |
| The openTempFile function in goo/gfile.cc in Xpdf and Poppler 0.24.3 and earlier, when running on a system other than Unix, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files with predictable names. |
| sudoedit in Sudo before 1.8.15 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on a file whose full path is defined using multiple wildcards in /etc/sudoers, as demonstrated by "/home/*/*/file.txt." |
| Apache Commons FileUpload before 1.3.3 DiskFileItem File Manipulation Remote Code Execution |
| p7zip 9.20.1 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack in an archive. |
| include/tests_webservers in Lynis before 1.5.5 on AIX allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/lynis.##### file. |
| 389 Directory Server 1.3.1.x, 1.3.2.x before 1.3.2.27, and 1.3.3.x before 1.3.3.9 stores "unhashed" passwords even when the nsslapd-unhashed-pw-switch option is set to off, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information by reading the Changelog. |
| The Show In Browser (show_in_browser) gem 0.0.3 for Ruby allows local users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a symlink attack on /tmp/browser.html. |
| The mountpoint_last function in fs/namei.c in the Linux kernel before 3.15.8 does not properly maintain a certain reference count during attempts to use the umount system call in conjunction with a symlink, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via the umount program. |
| Directory traversal vulnerability in afc in AppleFileConduit in Apple iOS before 8.1.3 and Apple TV before 7.0.3 allows attackers to access unintended filesystem locations by creating a symlink. |
| libodm.a in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.x, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-2179. |
| Moxa Secure Router EDR-G903 devices before 3.4.12 allow remote attackers to read configuration and log files via a crafted URL. |
| main/php_open_temporary_file.c in PHP before 5.5.28 and 5.6.x before 5.6.12 does not ensure thread safety, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (race condition and heap memory corruption) by leveraging an application that performs many temporary-file accesses. |
| The VFS subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x provides an incomplete set of requirements for setattr operations that underspecifies removing extended privilege attributes, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (capability stripping) via a failed invocation of a system call, as demonstrated by using chown to remove a capability from the ping or Wireshark dumpcap program. |
| rsync 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in the synchronization path. |
