Fusionforge · Fusionforge · CVE-2013-1423
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
FusionForge versions 5.0 through 5.2
**Description**
The issue allows local users to change arbitrary file permissions, obtain sensitive information, and have other unspecified impacts via a symlink or hard link attack on certain files. This can lead to a violation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. The exploitation of these vulnerabilities can be carried out by a local attacker.
**Recommendations**
For FusionForge versions 5.0 through 5.2, consider restricting access to the affected files, such as contrib/gforge-3.0-cronjobs.patch, cronjobs/homedirs.php, and others, to minimize the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the vulnerable files until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
