CVSS v3.1 |
| amlabel-cdrw in cdrw-taper 0.4 might allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack involving a /tmp/amlabel-cdrw.##### temporary directory. |
| arb-common 0.0.20071207.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (a) /tmp/arb_fdnaml_*, (b) /tmp/arb_pids_*, (c) /tmp/arbdsmz.html, and (d) /tmp/arbdsmz.htm temporary files, related to the (1) arb_fastdnaml and (2) dszmconnect.pl scripts. |
| The finger client in HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS 5.x allows local users to read arbitrary files via a link corresponding to a (1) .plan or (2) .project file. |
| faxspool in mgetty 1.1.36 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/faxsp.##### temporary file. |
| sympa.pl in sympa 5.3.4 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/sympa_aliases.$$ temporary file. NOTE: wwsympa.fcgi was also reported, but the issue occurred in a dead function, so it is not a vulnerability. |
| The init.d script for the X.Org X11 xfs font server on various Linux distributions might allow local users to change the permissions of arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/.font-unix temporary file. |
| The main function in skkdic-expr.c in SKK Tools 1.2 allows local users to overwrite or delete arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a skkdic$PID temporary file. |
| Tools/faqwiz/move-faqwiz.sh (aka the generic FAQ wizard moving tool) in Python 2.4.5 might allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a tmp$RANDOM.tmp temporary file. NOTE: there may not be common usage scenarios in which tmp$RANDOM.tmp is located in an untrusted directory. |
| mailscanner 4.68.8 and other versions before 4.74.16-1 might allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on certain temporary files used by the (1) f-prot-autoupdate, (2) clamav-autoupdate, (3) avast-autoupdate, and (4) f-prot-6-autoupdate scripts in /etc/MailScanner/autoupdate/; the (5) bitdefender-wrapper, (6) kaspersky-wrapper, (7) clamav-wrapper, and (8) rav-wrapper scripts in /etc/MailScanner/wrapper/; the (9) Quarantine.pm, (10) TNEF.pm, (11) MessageBatch.pm, (12) WorkArea.pm, and (13) SA.pm scripts in /usr/share/MailScanner/MailScanner/; (14) /usr/sbin/MailScanner; and (15) scripts that load the /etc/MailScanner/mailscanner.conf.with.mcp configuration file. |
| (1) xenbaked and (2) xenmon.py in Xen 3.1 and earlier allow local users to truncate arbitrary files via a symlink attack on /tmp/xenq-shm. |
| master-filter in printfilters-ppd 2.13 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/filter.debug temporary file. NOTE: the vendor disputes this vulnerability, stating 'this package does not have " possibility of attack with the help of symlinks"' |
| javareconf in R 2.7.2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files. |
| Certain setuid DB2 binaries in IBM DB2 before 9 Fix Pack 2 for Linux and Unix allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the DB2DIAG.LOG temporary file. |
| expn in the am-utils and net-fs packages for Gentoo, rPath Linux, and other distributions, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the expn[PID] temporary file. NOTE: this is the same issue as CVE-2003-0308.1. |
| The SmartPoster implementation on the Nokia 6131 Near Field Communication (NFC) phone with 05.12 firmware does not properly display the URI record when the Title record contains a certain combination of space, CR (aka \r), and . (dot) characters, which allows remote attackers to trick a user into loading an arbitrary URI via a crafted NDEF tag, as demonstrated by (1) an http: URI for a malicious web site, (2) a tel: URI for a premium-rate telephone number, and (3) an sms: URI that triggers purchase of a ringtone. |
| winetricks before 20081223 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the x_showmenu.txt temporary file. |
| Apple Safari 3.2.1 (aka AppVer 3.525.27.1) on Windows allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop or access violation) via a link to an http URI in which the authority (aka hostname) portion is either a (1) . (dot) or (2) .. (dot dot) sequence. |
| ClamAV 0.92 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) temporary files used by the cli_gentempfd function in libclamav/others.c or on (2) .ascii files used by sigtool, when utf16-decode is enabled. |
| vobcopy 0.5.14 allows local users to append data to an arbitrary file, or create an arbitrary new file, via a symlink attack on the (1) /tmp/vobcopy.bla or (2) /tmp/vobcopy_0.5.14.log temporary file. |
| Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.6 and SeaMonkey do not block links to the (1) about:plugins and (2) about:config URIs from .desktop files, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and execute arbitrary code with chrome privileges via vectors involving the URL field in a Desktop Entry section of a .desktop file, related to representation of about: URIs as jar:file:// URIs. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-4582. |
