Base vector

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

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Verlihub versions 0.9.8d-RC2 and earlier

Description The issue allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/trigger.tmp temporary file, specifically through the cTrigger::DoIt function in the trigger mechanism in the daemon.

Recommendations For versions 0.9.8d-RC2 and earlier, consider restricting access to the cTrigger::DoIt function until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the trigger mechanism in the daemon to minimize the risk of exploitation.
