CVE-2006-5298
CVSS v2.0
1.2
Baixa
| Vetor | AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Mutt versions 1.5.12 and earlier
Description
The issue arises from the mutt adv mktemp function in the Mutt mail client, which fails to properly verify that temporary files have been created with restricted permissions. This could allow local users to create files with weak permissions via a race condition between the mktemp and safe fopen function calls.
Recommendations
For versions 1.5.12 and earlier, update to a version that addresses this issue, as the current version does not properly restrict permissions for temporary files.
