Vetor base

AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions NCSA Mosaic versions 2.0 and earlier

Description The issue allows local users to cause a denial of service, also referred to as a "remote control" outage. This is achieved by creating a /tmp/xmosaic.pid file for every possible PID, which leads to the denial of service.

Recommendations For versions 2.0 and earlier, consider restricting access to the /tmp directory to prevent the creation of multiple /tmp/xmosaic.pid files, thereby minimizing the risk of a denial of service.
