**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
SCO UnixWare version 7.1.4 before p534589
**Description**
A directory traversal issue exists, allowing local users to create or append to arbitrary files. This is achieved by using ".." sequences in an unspecified environment variable, likely `PKGINST`, within the `pkgadd` environment.
**Recommendations**
For SCO UnixWare version 7.1.4 before p534589, consider restricting access to the `pkgadd` command until a patch is available, specifically by limiting the ability to manipulate the environment variable that is being exploited.
