Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 Initialization of a Resource with an Insecure Default (CVE-2024-56433)

shadow-utils aka shadow 4.4 through 4.17.0 establishes a default /etc/subuid behavior e.g., uid 100000 through 165535 for the first user account that can realistically conflict with the uids of users defined on locally administered networks, potentially leading to account takeover, e.g., by...

shadow-utils: Default subordinate ID configuration in /etc/login.defs could lead to compromise

A flaw was found in shadow-utils. Affected versions of shadow-utils establish a default /etc/subuid behavior, for example, uid 100000 through 165535 for the first user account, that can conflict with the uids of users defined on locally administered networks. This issue potentially leads to accou...

NOTE: it may also be argued that system administrators should not have assigned uids, within local networks, that are within the range that can occur in /etc/subuid.
