CVE-2016-5995

Untrusted search path vulnerability in IBM DB2 9.7 through FP11, 10.1 through FP5, 10.5 before FP8, and 11.1 GA on Linux, AIX, and HP-UX allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse library that is accessed by a setuid or setgid program...

The vulnerability of the NameSurfer IP address management server allows a malicious actor to perform unauthorized privilege escalation within the system.

The vulnerability of the Nixu NameSurfer software lies in errors in the program’s code. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a malicious individual to unauthorizedly elevate privileges within the system by writing a path to their file into the $PATH variable, and having that application executed...

UBUNTU-CVE-2016-3672

The archpickmmaplayout function in arch/x86/mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 does not properly randomize the legacy base address, which makes it easier for local users to defeat the intended restrictions on the ADDRNORANDOMIZE flag, and bypass the ASLR protection mechanism for a setuid...

UBUNTU-CVE-2015-5200

The trace functionality in libvdpau before 1.1.1, when used in a setuid or setgid application, allows local users to write to arbitrary files via unspecified vectors...

Cisco Prime Infrastructure SUID Root Binaries Remote Command Execution Vulnerability

Cisco Prime Infrastructure PI is a set of Cisco Prime LAN Management Solution LMS and Cisco Prime Network Control System NCS technologies for wireless management. solution. A remote command execution vulnerability exists in Cisco PI, which can be exploited by an attacker to execute arbitrary syst...

kernel: race condition between chown() and execve()

A race condition flaw was found between the chown and execve system calls. When changing the owner of a setuid user binary to root, the race condition could momentarily make the binary setuid root. A local, unprivileged user could potentially use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the syst...

UBUNTU-CVE-2015-3339

Race condition in the preparebinprm function in fs/exec.c in the Linux kernel before 3.19.6 allows local users to gain privileges by executing a setuid program at a time instant when a chown to root is in progress, and the ownership is changed but the setuid bit is not yet stripped...

mod_wsgi: possible privilege escalation in setuid() failure scenarios

It was found that modwsgi did not properly drop privileges if the call to setuid failed. If modwsgi was set up to allow unprivileged users to run WSGI applications, a local user able to run a WSGI application could possibly use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. Note: modwsgi i...

UBUNTU-CVE-2014-5033

KDE kdelibs before 4.14 and kauth before 5.1 does not properly use D-Bus for communication with a polkit authority, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions by leveraging a PolkitUnixProcess PolkitSubject race condition via a 1 setuid process or 2 pkexec process, related to...

UBUNTU-CVE-2014-0240

The modwsgi module before 3.5 for Apache, when daemon mode is enabled, does not properly handle error codes returned by setuid when run on certain Linux kernels, which allows local users to gain privileges via vectors related to the number of running processes...

DEBIAN-CVE-2014-0181

The Netlink implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.14.1 does not provide a mechanism for authorizing socket operations based on the opener of a socket, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and modify network configurations by using a Netlink socket for the 1 stdou...

UBUNTU-CVE-2013-6171

checkpassword-reply in Dovecot before 2.2.7 performs setuid operations to a user who is authenticating, which allows local users to bypass authentication and access virtual email accounts by attaching to the process and using a restricted file descriptor to modify account information in the...

DEBIAN-CVE-2013-4288

Race condition in PolicyKit aka polkit allows local users to bypass intended PolicyKit restrictions and gain privileges by starting a setuid or pkexec process before the authorization check is performed, related to 1 the polkitunixprocessnew API function, 2 the dbus API, or 3 the --process...
