CVE-2005-2876 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Util-linux 2018-10-19 7.2 HIGH N/A
umount in util-linux 2.8 to 2.12q, 2.13-pre1, and 2.13-pre2, and other packages such as loop-aes-utils, allows local users with unmount permissions to gain privileges via the -r (remount) option, which causes the file system to be remounted with just the read-only flag, which effectively clears the nosuid, nodev, and other flags.
CVE-2006-7108 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Util-linux 2017-10-10 4.1 MEDIUM N/A
login in util-linux-2.12a skips pam_acct_mgmt and chauth_tok when authentication is skipped, such as when a Kerberos krlogin session has been established, which might allow users to bypass intended access policies that would be enforced by pam_acct_mgmt and chauth_tok.
CVE-2001-1494 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Util-linux 2017-10-10 2.1 LOW N/A
script command in the util-linux package before 2.11n allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files by setting a hardlink from the typescript log file to any file on the system, then having root execute the script command.
CVE-2003-0124 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Man 2017-10-09 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
man before 1.5l allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed man file with improper quotes, which causes the my_xsprintf function to return a string with the value "unsafe," which is then executed as a program via a system call if it is in the search path of the user who runs man.
CVE-2004-0080 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Util-linux 2017-10-09 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The login program in util-linux 2.11 and earlier uses a pointer after it has been freed and reallocated, which could cause login to leak sensitive data.
CVE-2001-1175 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Util-linux 2017-10-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
vipw in the util-linux package before 2.10 causes /etc/shadow to be world-readable in some cases, which would make it easier for local users to perform brute force password guessing.
CVE-2003-0094 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Util-linux 2017-10-09 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
A patch for mcookie in the util-linux package for Mandrake Linux 8.2 and 9.0 uses /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random, which causes mcookie to use an entropy source that is more predictable than expected, which may make it easier for certain types of attacks to succeed.
CVE-2003-0645 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Man 2017-07-10 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
man-db 2.3.12 and 2.3.18 to 2.4.1 uses certain user-controlled DEFINE directives from the ~/.manpath file, even when running setuid, which could allow local users to gain privileges.
CVE-2003-0620 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Man 2016-10-17 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
Multiple buffer overflows in man-db 2.4.1 and earlier, when installed setuid, allow local users to gain privileges via (1) MANDATORY_MANPATH, MANPATH_MAP, and MANDB_MAP arguments to add_to_dirlist in manp.c, (2) a long pathname to ult_src in ult_src.c, (3) a long .so argument to test_for_include in ult_src.c, (4) a long MANPATH environment variable, or (5) a long PATH environment variable.
CVE-2001-1147 1 Andries Brouwer 1 Util-linux 2008-09-05 7.2 HIGH N/A
The PAM implementation in /bin/login of the util-linux package before 2.11 causes a password entry to be rewritten across multiple PAM calls, which could provide the credentials of one user to a different user, when used in certain PAM modules such as pam_limits.
