Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
SUSE shadow versions 4.2.1-27.9.1 through 4.5-5.39 for SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 and 15
Description
The issue is related to errors in access control in the useradd function of the SUSE shadow utility. This can allow an attacker to escalate their privileges. Local attackers might exploit this issue by utilizing world-writable directories created during user creation, potentially leading to privilege escalation and other unspecified attacks.
Recommendations
For SUSE Linux Enterprise 12, update the shadow package to a version later than 4.2.1-27.9.1.
For SUSE Linux Enterprise 15, update the shadow package to a version later than 4.5-5.39.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
useradd function until a patch is available.Correção
