CVE-2020-14367

Chrony before 3.5.1 is vulnerable to a local symlink attack on its PID file in /var/run/chrony. During startup, the PID file is created as root and, per sources, chronyd does not check for an existing symlink with the same file name. A privileged attacker could create a symlink named chrony’s def...

wildfly: Race condition on PID file allows for termination of arbitrary processes by local users

A flaw was discovered in wildfly that would allow local users, who are able to execute init.d script, to terminate arbitrary processes on the system. An attacker could exploit this by modifying the PID file in /var/run/jboss-eap/ allowing the init.d script to terminate any process as root...

USN-4269-1 systemd vulnerabilities

It was discovered that systemd incorrectly handled certain PIDFile files. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to trick systemd into killing privileged processes. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. CVE-2018-16888 It was discovered that systemd incorrectly handled certain udevadm...
