fs/open.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not properly strip setuid and setgid bits when there is a write to a file, which allows local users to gain the privileges of a different group, and obtain sensitive information or possibly have unspecified other impact, by creating an executable...

SUSE CVE-2009-1895

The personality subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.31-rc3 has a PERCLEARONSETID setting that does not clear the ADDRCOMPATLAYOUT and MMAPPAGEZERO flags when executing a setuid or setgid program, which makes it easier for local users to leverage the details of memory usage to 1 conduct NULL...

SUSE CVE-2010-0727

The gfs2lock function in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34-rc1-next-20100312, and the gfslock function in the Linux kernel on Red Hat Enterprise Linux RHEL 5 and 6, does not properly remove POSIX locks on files that are setgid without group-execute permission, which allows local users to cause a...

SUSE CVE-2010-2059

lib/fsm.c in RPM 4.8.0 and unspecified 4.7.x and 4.6.x versions, and RPM before 4.4.3, does not properly reset the metadata of an executable file during replacement of the file in an RPM package upgrade, which might allow local users to gain privileges by creating a hard link to a vulnerable 1...

SUSE CVE-2010-3316

The runcoprocess function in pamxauth.c in the pamxauth module in Linux-PAM aka pam before 1.1.2 does not check the return values of the setuid, setgid, and setgroups system calls, which might allow local users to read arbitrary files by executing a program that relies on the pamxauth PAM check...

SUSE CVE-2011-0536

Multiple untrusted search path vulnerabilities in elf/dl-object.c in certain modified versions of the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6, including glibc-2.5-49.el55.6 and glibc-2.12-1.7.el60.3 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux, allow local users to gain privileges via a crafted dynamic shared object DSO...

SUSE CVE-2011-1946

gnomesu-pam-backend in libgnomesu 1.0.0 prints an error message but proceeds with the non-error code path upon failure of the setgid or setuid function, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to two unprivileged user accounts, and running many processes under one of thes...

SUSE CVE-2013-4559

lighttpd before 1.4.33 does not check the return value of the 1 setuid, 2 setgid, or 3 setgroups functions, which might cause lighttpd to run as root if it is restarted and allows remote attackers to gain privileges, as demonstrated by multiple calls to the clone function that cause setuid to fai...

SUSE CVE-2014-4014

The capabilities implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.14.8 does not properly consider that namespaces are inapplicable to inodes, which allows local users to bypass intended chmod restrictions by first creating a user namespace, as demonstrated by setting the setgid bit on a file with grou...

SUSE 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...

SUSE CVE-2016-2854

The aufs module for the Linux kernel 3.x and 4.x does not properly maintain POSIX ACL xattr data, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging a group-writable setgid directory...

SUSE CVE-2016-7097

The filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.8.2 preserves the setgid bit during a setxattr call, which allows local users to gain group privileges by leveraging the existence of a setgid program with restrictions on execute permissions...

SUSE CVE-2017-5551

The simplesetacl function in fs/posixacl.c in the Linux kernel before 4.9.6 preserves the setgid bit during a setxattr call involving a tmpfs filesystem, which allows local users to gain group privileges by leveraging the existence of a setgid program with restrictions on execute permissions. NOT...

SUSE CVE-2019-3843

It was discovered that a systemd service that uses DynamicUser property can create a SUID/SGID binary that would be allowed to run as the transient service UID/GID even after the service is terminated. A local attacker may use this flaw to access resources that will be owned by a potentially...

SUSE CVE-2019-3844

It was discovered that a systemd service that uses DynamicUser property can get new privileges through the execution of SUID binaries, which would allow to create binaries owned by the service transient group with the setgid bit set. A local attacker may use this flaw to access resources that wil...

PT-2023-19717
