Administrative users by way of undisclosed methods can exploit the ssldump utilityto write to arbitrary file paths. For users who do not have Advanced Shell access (for example, any user when licensed for Appliance Mode), this allows more permissive file access than intended. (CVE-2018-5519)
Impact
This vulnerability allows unauthorized modification.
