| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Xscreensaver versions prior to 4.15
Description
The issue allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack due to insecure creation of temporary files in several components, including driver/passwd-kerberos.c, driver/xscreensaver-getimage-video, driver/xscreensaver.kss.in, and the vidwhacker and webcollage screensavers.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 4.15, update to version 4.15 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the affected components, such as the vidwhacker and webcollage screensavers, until the update is applied.
