| Vetor | AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
os-prober version 1.17
Description
The issue allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the
/tmp/mounted-map or /tmp/raided-map temporary file. The vendor disputes this issue, stating that the insecure code path should only ever run inside a d-i environment, which has no non-root users.Recommendations
For os-prober version 1.17, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
/tmp/mounted-map and /tmp/raided-map temporary files to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Link Following
