CVSS v3.1 |
| /bin/login in shadow 4.0.18.1 in Debian GNU/Linux, and probably other Linux distributions, allows local users in the utmp group to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file referenced in a line (aka ut_line) field in a utmp entry. |
| sealert in setroubleshoot 2.0.5 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the sealert.log temporary file. |
| Open redirect vulnerability in htdocs/user.php in XOOPS 2.0.18 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a URL in the xoops_redirect parameter. |
| Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connectivity loss) or steal credentials via a 1Ch registration that causes WINS to change the domain controller to point to a malicious server. NOTE: this problem may be limited when Windows 95/98 clients are used, or if the primary domain controller becomes unavailable. |
| PatchLink Update client for Unix, as used by Novell ZENworks Patch Management Update Agent for Linux/Unix/Mac (LUM) 6.2094 through 6.4102 and other products, allows local users to (1) truncate arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/patchlink.tmp file used by the logtrimmer script, and (2) execute arbitrary code via a symlink attack on the /tmp/plshutdown file used by the rebootTask script. |
| mtx-changer.Adic-Scalar-24 in bacula-common 2.4.2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/mtx.##### temporary file, probably a related issue to CVE-2005-2995. |
| This issue was addressed with improved validation of symlinks. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.7.2 and iPadOS 18.7.2, iOS 26.1 and iPadOS 26.1, macOS Sequoia 15.7.2, macOS Sonoma 14.8.2, macOS Tahoe 26.1, tvOS 26.1, visionOS 26.1, watchOS 26.1. An app may be able to break out of its sandbox. |
| This issue was addressed with improved handling of symlinks. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.7.2, macOS Sonoma 14.8.2, macOS Tahoe 26.1. An app may be able to access protected user data. |

| Nhost is an open source Firebase alternative with GraphQL. Prior to 0.48.0, the auth service's OAuth provider callback flow places the refresh token directly into the redirect URL as a query parameter. Refresh tokens in URLs are logged in browser history, server access logs, HTTP Referer headers, and proxy/CDN logs. Note that the refresh token is one-time use and all of these leak vectors are on owned infrastructure or services integrated by the application developer. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.48.0. |
| util-linux is a random collection of Linux utilities. Prior to version 2.41.4, a TOCTOU (Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use) vulnerability has been identified in the SUID binary /usr/bin/mount from util-linux. The mount binary, when setting up loop devices, validates the source file path with user privileges via fork() + setuid() + realpath(), but subsequently re-canonicalizes and opens it with root privileges (euid=0) without verifying that the path has not been replaced between both operations. Neither O_NOFOLLOW, nor inode comparison, nor post-open fstat() are employed. This allows a local unprivileged user to replace the source file with a symlink pointing to any root-owned file or device during the race window, causing the SUID binary to open and mount it as root. Exploitation requires an /etc/fstab entry with user,loop options whose path points to a directory where the attacker has write permission, and that /usr/bin/mount has the SUID bit set (the default configuration on virtually all Linux distributions). The impact is unauthorized read access to root-protected files and block devices, including backup images, disk volumes, and any file containing a valid filesystem. This issue has been patched in version 2.41.4. |
| Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Host Process for Windows Tasks allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally. |
| LORIS (Longitudinal Online Research and Imaging System) is a self-hosted web application that provides data- and project-management for neuroimaging research. From 20.0.0 to before 27.0.3 and 28.0.1, an endpoint in the publication module was incorrectly trusting the baseURL submitted by a user's POST request rather than the internal LORIS value. This could result in a theoretical attacker with publication module access forging an email to an external domain under the attacker's control which appeared to come from LORIS. This vulnerability is fixed in 27.0.3 and 28.0.1. |
| The XPC implementation in Admin Framework in Apple OS X before 10.10.3 allows local users to bypass authentication and obtain admin privileges via unspecified vectors. |
| Weblate is a web based localization tool. In versions prior to 5.17, the ZIP download feature didn't verify downloaded files, potentially following symlinks outside the repository. This issue has been fixed in version 5.17. |
| There was a way to change the value of JavaScript Object properties that were supposed to be non-writeable. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 144, Firefox ESR 115.29, Firefox ESR 140.4, Thunderbird 144, and Thunderbird 140.4. |
| The Claude SDK for Python provides access to the Claude API from Python applications. From version 0.86.0 to before version 0.87.0, the async local filesystem memory tool in the Anthropic Python SDK validated that model-supplied paths resolved inside the sandboxed memory directory, but then returned the unresolved path for subsequent file operations. A local attacker able to write to the memory directory could retarget a symlink between validation and use, causing reads or writes to escape the sandbox. The synchronous memory tool implementation was not affected. This issue has been patched in version 0.87.0. |
| BuildKit is a toolkit for converting source code to build artifacts in an efficient, expressive and repeatable manner. Prior to version 0.28.1, insufficient validation of Git URL fragment subdir components may allow access to files outside the checked-out Git repository root. Possible access is limited to files on the same mounted filesystem. The issue has been fixed in version v0.28.1 The issue affects only builds that use Git URLs with a subpath component. As a workaround, avoid building Dockerfiles from untrusted sources or using the subdir component from an untrusted Git repository where the subdir component could point to a symlink. |
| openCryptoki is a PKCS#11 library and provides tooling for Linux and AIX. Versions 2.3.2 and above are vulnerable to symlink-following when running in privileged contexts. A token-group user can redirect file operations to arbitrary filesystem targets by planting symlinks in group-writable token directories, resulting in privilege escalation or data exposure. Token and lock directories are 0770 (group-writable for token users), so any token-group member can plant files and symlinks inside them. When run as root, the base code handling token directory file access, as well as several openCryptoki tools used for administrative purposes, may reset ownership or permissions on existing files inside the token directories. An attacker with token-group membership can exploit the system when an administrator runs a PKCS#11 application or administrative tool that performs chown on files inside the token directory during normal maintenance. This issue is fixed in commit 5e6e4b4, but has not been included in a released version at the time of publication. |
