acl: Symlink traversal privilege escalation via libacl functions

A flaw was found in the acl package, specifically within its libacl pathname-based functions. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using a symbolic link to replace a pathname component. This could allow the attacker to redirect access control list ACL read or write operations to...

acl: TOCTOU Symlink Traversal via getfacl/setfacl

A time-of-check to time-of-use TOCTOU race condition vulnerability was found in acl. By replacing a pathname component with a symbolic link between a security check and subsequent file operations, an attacker can redirect file access control list operations. This occurs when privileged processes...
