Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
ppp versions 2.4.4 and earlier
Description
The issue concerns a problem with the winbind plugin in pppd, where it does not check the return code from the setuid function call. This might allow local users to gain privileges by causing setuid to fail. The exploitation of vulnerabilities in the ppp package may lead to a breach of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. A local attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities.
Recommendations
For versions 2.4.4 and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the setuid function call until a patch is available.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
