rhnsd Denial of Service Vulnerability

rhnsd is a network service daemon in Linux. A security vulnerability exists in rhnsd that stems from the program creating the PID file as globally readable. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service...

PT-2017-13577

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Kannel versions 1.5.0 and earlier Description The server daemons in Kannel create a PID file after dropping privileges to a non-root account. This could allow local users to terminate arbitrary processes by modifying the PID file before a root...

PT-2017-13579

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Bareos versions prior to 16.2.7 Description The issue allows local users to potentially kill arbitrary processes by modifying the PID file, which is created after dropping privileges to a non-root account. This can be exploited when a root...

CVE-2017-14610: Improper Initialization

bareos-dir, bareos-fd, and bareos-sd in bareos-core in Bareos 16.2.6 and earlier create a PID file after dropping privileges to a non-root account, which might allow local users to kill arbitrary processes by leveraging access to this non-root account for PID file modification before a root scrip...

CVE-2017-14609: Improper Initialization

The server daemons in Kannel 1.5.0 and earlier create a PID file after dropping privileges to a non-root account, which might allow local users to kill arbitrary processes by leveraging access to this non-root account for PID file modification before a root script executes a "kill cat /pathname"...
