CVSS v3.1
7.8
Alta
| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
man-db versions prior to 2.8.5
Description
The issue allows local users with access to the man user account to gain root privileges because /usr/bin/mandb is executed by root but not owned by root. Additionally, the owner can strip the setuid and setgid bits.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.8.5, update to version 2.8.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider changing the ownership of /usr/bin/mandb to root to prevent exploitation.
