Symlink Attack

Overview adm-zip is a JavaScript implementation for zip data compression for NodeJS. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Symlink Attack through the extractAllTo, extractAllToAsync, and extractEntryTo code paths in util/utils.js. An attacker can write attacker-controlled contents...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in oddjob

A race condition was identified in the mkhomedir tool included with the oddjob package in versions prior to 0.34.5 and 0.34.6. During the home creation process, mkhomedir copies the /etc/skel directory into the newly created home directory and changes its ownership to the home’s user, without...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in sudo

The “sudoedit” personality of Sudo before version 1.9.5 might allow a local unprivileged user to perform arbitrary directory existence tests by exploiting a race condition in the “sudoedit.c” code, which allows a user-controlled directory to be replaced with a symlink pointing to an arbitrary pat...
