CVE-2018-14335 2 H2database, Redhat 2 H2, Jboss Data Grid 2024-11-21 6.5 Medium
An issue was discovered in H2 1.4.197. Insecure handling of permissions in the backup function allows attackers to read sensitive files (outside of their permissions) via a symlink to a fake database file.
CVE-2018-14329 1 Htslib 1 Htslib 2024-11-21 4.7 Medium
In HTSlib 1.8, a race condition in cram/cram_io.c might allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
CVE-2018-13054 2 Debian, Linuxmint 2 Debian Linux, Cinnamon 2024-11-21 N/A
An issue was discovered in Cinnamon 1.9.2 through 3.8.6. The cinnamon-settings-users.py GUI runs as root and allows configuration of (for example) other users' icon files in _on_face_browse_menuitem_activated and _on_face_menuitem_activated. These icon files are written to the respective user's $HOME/.face location. If an unprivileged user prepares a symlink pointing to an arbitrary location, then this location will be overwritten with the icon content.
CVE-2018-12026 1 Phusion 1 Passenger 2024-11-21 N/A
During the spawning of a malicious Passenger-managed application, SpawningKit in Phusion Passenger 5.3.x before 5.3.2 allows such applications to replace key files or directories in the spawning communication directory with symlinks. This then could result in arbitrary reads and writes, which in turn can result in information disclosure and privilege escalation.
CVE-2018-12015 7 Apple, Archive\, Canonical and 4 more 10 Mac Os X, \, Ubuntu Linux and 7 more 2024-11-21 N/A
In Perl through 5.26.2, the Archive::Tar module allows remote attackers to bypass a directory-traversal protection mechanism, and overwrite arbitrary files, via an archive file containing a symlink and a regular file with the same name.
CVE-2018-11637 1 Dialogic 1 Powermedia Xms 2024-11-21 N/A
Information leakage vulnerability in the administrative console in Dialogic PowerMedia XMS through 3.5 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files from the /var/ directory because a symlink exists under the web root.
CVE-2018-10928 4 Debian, Gluster, Opensuse and 1 more 8 Debian Linux, Glusterfs, Leap and 5 more 2024-11-21 8.8 High
A flaw was found in RPC request using gfs3_symlink_req in glusterfs server which allows symlink destinations to point to file paths outside of the gluster volume. An authenticated attacker could use this flaw to create arbitrary symlinks pointing anywhere on the server and execute arbitrary code on glusterfs server nodes.
CVE-2018-10897 2 Redhat, Rpm 6 Enterprise Linux, Enterprise Linux Desktop, Enterprise Linux Server and 3 more 2024-11-21 8.1 High
A directory traversal issue was found in reposync, a part of yum-utils, where reposync fails to sanitize paths in remote repository configuration files. If an attacker controls a repository, they may be able to copy files outside of the destination directory on the targeted system via path traversal. If reposync is running with heightened privileges on a targeted system, this flaw could potentially result in system compromise via the overwriting of critical system files. Version 1.1.31 and older are believed to be affected.
CVE-2018-10722 1 Cylance 1 Cylanceprotect 2024-11-21 N/A
In Cylance CylancePROTECT before 1470, an unprivileged local user can obtain SYSTEM privileges because users have Modify access to the %PROGRAMFILES%\Cylance\Desktop\log folder, the CyUpdate process grants users Modify access to new files created in this folder, and a new file can be a symlink chain to a pathname of an arbitrary DLL that CyUpdate uses.
CVE-2018-10380 3 Debian, Kde, Opensuse 3 Debian Linux, Plasma, Leap 2024-11-21 N/A
kwallet-pam in KDE KWallet before 5.12.6 allows local users to obtain ownership of arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
CVE-2018-1000862 2 Jenkins, Redhat 3 Jenkins, Openshift, Openshift Container Platform 2024-11-21 N/A
An information exposure vulnerability exists in Jenkins 2.153 and earlier, LTS 2.138.3 and earlier in DirectoryBrowserSupport.java that allows attackers with the ability to control build output to browse the file system on agents running builds beyond the duration of the build using the workspace browser.
CVE-2018-1000544 3 Debian, Redhat, Rubyzip Project 4 Debian Linux, Cloudforms, Cloudforms Managementengine and 1 more 2024-11-21 9.8 Critical
rubyzip gem rubyzip version 1.2.1 and earlier contains a Directory Traversal vulnerability in Zip::File component that can result in write arbitrary files to the filesystem. This attack appear to be exploitable via If a site allows uploading of .zip files , an attacker can upload a malicious file that contains symlinks or files with absolute pathnames "../" to write arbitrary files to the filesystem..
CVE-2018-1000073 2 Redhat, Rubygems 7 Enterprise Linux, Rhel Aus, Rhel E4s and 4 more 2024-11-21 N/A
RubyGems version Ruby 2.2 series: 2.2.9 and earlier, Ruby 2.3 series: 2.3.6 and earlier, Ruby 2.4 series: 2.4.3 and earlier, Ruby 2.5 series: 2.5.0 and earlier, prior to trunk revision 62422 contains a Directory Traversal vulnerability in install_location function of package.rb that can result in path traversal when writing to a symlinked basedir outside of the root. This vulnerability appears to have been fixed in 2.7.6.
CVE-2017-7500 1 Rpm 1 Rpm 2024-11-21 N/A
It was found that rpm did not properly handle RPM installations when a destination path was a symbolic link to a directory, possibly changing ownership and permissions of an arbitrary directory, and RPM files being placed in an arbitrary destination. An attacker, with write access to a directory in which a subdirectory will be installed, could redirect that directory to an arbitrary location and gain root privilege.
CVE-2017-5188 1 Opensuse 1 Open Build Service 2024-11-21 N/A
The bs_worker code in open build service before 20170320 followed relative symlinks, allowing reading of files outside of the package source directory during build, allowing leakage of private information.
CVE-2017-2619 3 Debian, Redhat, Samba 4 Debian Linux, Enterprise Linux, Storage and 1 more 2024-11-21 7.5 High
Samba before versions 4.6.1, 4.5.7 and 4.4.11 are vulnerable to a malicious client using a symlink race to allow access to areas of the server file system not exported under the share definition.
CVE-2017-18925 1 Openr 1 Opentmpfiles 2024-11-21 5.5 Medium
opentmpfiles through 0.3.1 allows local users to take ownership of arbitrary files because d entries are mishandled and allow a symlink attack.
CVE-2017-18188 1 Openr 1 Opentmpfiles 2024-11-21 N/A
OpenRC opentmpfiles through 0.1.3, when the fs.protected_hardlinks sysctl is turned off, allows local users to obtain ownership of arbitrary files by creating a hard link inside a directory on which "chown -R" will be run.
CVE-2017-18078 3 Debian, Opensuse, Systemd Project 3 Debian Linux, Leap, Systemd 2024-11-21 7.8 High
systemd-tmpfiles in systemd before 237 attempts to support ownership/permission changes on hardlinked files even if the fs.protected_hardlinks sysctl is turned off, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via vectors involving a hard link to a file for which the user lacks write access, as demonstrated by changing the ownership of the /etc/passwd file.
CVE-2017-15111 2 Keycloak-httpd-client-install Project, Redhat 2 Keycloak-httpd-client-install, Enterprise Linux 2024-11-21 N/A
keycloak-httpd-client-install versions before 0.8 insecurely creates temporary file allowing local attackers to overwrite other files via symbolic link.
