CVE-2010-2061
CVSS v3.1
7.8
High
| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
rpcbind version 0.2.0
Description
The issue is related to the improper validation of temporary files /tmp/portmap.xdr and /tmp/rpcbind.xdr by rpcbind. An attacker can create these files before the daemon is started, potentially leading to exploitation.
Recommendations
For rpcbind version 0.2.0, consider restricting access to the /tmp directory to prevent attackers from creating malicious files until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, monitor the /tmp directory for suspicious files, such as portmap.xdr and rpcbind.xdr, and remove them before starting the rpcbind daemon.
Fix
RCE
