CVSS v2.0
7.2
High
| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
SuSE Linux versions 7.0 and earlier
dqs version 3.2.7
Description:
A buffer overflow issue in the dsh component of dqs allows local users to gain privileges by providing a long first command line argument. This could potentially lead to exploitation, although specific details about the number of affected devices or real-world incidents are not provided.
Recommendations:
For SuSE Linux versions 7.0 and earlier, consider updating to a newer version to mitigate the risk, if a fixed version is available.
For dqs version 3.2.7, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the dsh component until a patch is available.
