AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: linux-atm versions prior to 2.4.1

Description: The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the les utility for ATM on Linux. This can be exploited by local users to gain privileges, specifically when the les utility is used with setuid and a long -f command line argument is provided.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 2.4.1, update to version 2.4.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider removing the setuid bit from the les utility to prevent local users from exploiting the buffer overflow.
