CVE-2026-72694 Mrtg: mrtg daemon symlink-following chown allows local privilege escalation via pid file path manipulation

A flaw was found in MRTG. When the MRTG daemon is started as a root user and subsequently drops privileges, a local, low-privileged attacker can exploit a symbolic link symlink following vulnerability. By influencing or pre-placing a symlink in the process ID PID file path, the attacker can trick...

abrt: ChownProblemDir succeeds during active post-create event processing due to inadequate locking

A race condition was found in the abrt-dbus D-Bus service's ChownProblemDir method. ChownProblemDir opens the dump directory with DDOPENREADONLY and calls ddchown to change ownership of all files to the caller's uid, succeeding even while post-create event handlers hold a write lock. This allows ...
