Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions quagga package before 0.99.23-2.6.1 in openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP 1

Description The issue concerns weak permissions for the /etc/quagga directory, allowing local users to obtain sensitive information by reading files in the directory. This is related to insufficient access control in the quagga package, which can be exploited by a local attacker to gain confidential information.

Recommendations For quagga package before 0.99.23-2.6.1, update to version 0.99.23-2.6.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the /etc/quagga directory to minimize the risk of exploitation.
