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

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Dropbox version 0.7.110

Description The issue allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse shared library in the current working directory. This is due to dropboxd in Dropbox placing a zero-length directory name in the LD LIBRARY PATH.

Recommendations For Dropbox version 0.7.110, consider restricting access to the LD LIBRARY PATH environment variable to prevent exploitation until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using shared libraries in the current working directory.
