foo2zjs before 20110722dfsg-3ubuntu1 as packaged in Ubuntu, 20110722dfsg-1 as packaged in Debian unstable, and 20090908dfsg-5.1+squeeze0 as packaged in Debian squeeze create temporary files insecurely, which allows local users to write over arbitrary files via a symlink attack on /tmp/foo2zjs.
CVE-2015-3149 1 Redhat 8 Enterprise Linux, Enterprise Linux Desktop, Enterprise Linux Hpc Node and 5 more 2025-04-20 N/A
The Hotspot component in OpenJDK8 as packaged in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
CVE-2017-7549 2 Openstack, Redhat 3 Instack-undercloud, Openstack, Openstack-director 2025-04-20 N/A
A flaw was found in instack-undercloud 7.2.0 as packaged in Red Hat OpenStack Platform Pike, 6.1.0 as packaged in Red Hat OpenStack Platform Oacta, 5.3.0 as packaged in Red Hat OpenStack Newton, where pre-install and security policy scripts used insecure temporary files. A local user could exploit this flaw to conduct a symbolic-link attack, allowing them to overwrite the contents of arbitrary files.
CVE-2016-4679 1 Apple 4 Iphone Os, Mac Os X, Tvos and 1 more 2025-04-20 N/A
An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.1 is affected. macOS before 10.12.1 is affected. tvOS before 10.0.1 is affected. watchOS before 3.1 is affected. The issue involves the "libarchive" component, which allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a crafted archive containing a symlink.
CVE-2015-5705 2 Devscripts Devel Team, Fedoraproject 2 Devscripts, Fedora 2025-04-20 N/A
Argument injection vulnerability in devscripts before 2.15.7 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a crafted symlink and crafted filename.
CVE-2015-3315 1 Redhat 8 Automatic Bug Reporting Tool, Enterprise Linux, Enterprise Linux Desktop and 5 more 2025-04-20 N/A
Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (ABRT) allows local users to read, change the ownership of, or have other unspecified impact on arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) /var/tmp/abrt/*/maps, (2) /tmp/jvm-*/hs_error.log, (3) /proc/*/exe, (4) /etc/os-release in a chroot, or (5) an unspecified root directory related to librpm.
CVE-2017-7418 1 Proftpd 1 Proftpd 2025-04-20 N/A
ProFTPD before 1.3.5e and 1.3.6 before 1.3.6rc5 controls whether the home directory of a user could contain a symbolic link through the AllowChrootSymlinks configuration option, but checks only the last path component when enforcing AllowChrootSymlinks. Attackers with local access could bypass the AllowChrootSymlinks control by replacing a path component (other than the last one) with a symbolic link. The threat model includes an attacker who is not granted full filesystem access by a hosting provider, but can reconfigure the home directory of an FTP user.
CVE-2017-7501 1 Rpm 1 Rpm 2025-04-20 N/A
It was found that versions of rpm before 4.13.0.2 use temporary files with predictable names when installing an RPM. An attacker with ability to write in a directory where files will be installed could create symbolic links to an arbitrary location and modify content, and possibly permissions to arbitrary files, which could be used for denial of service or possibly privilege escalation.
CVE-2015-3211 1 Php-fpm 1 Php-fpm 2025-04-20 N/A
php-fpm allows local users to write to or create arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
CVE-2017-8108 1 Cisofy 1 Lynis 2025-04-20 N/A
Unspecified tests in Lynis before 2.5.0 allow local users to write to arbitrary files or possibly gain privileges via a symlink attack on a temporary file.
CVE-2017-6981 1 Apple 2 Iphone Os, Mac Os X 2025-04-20 N/A
An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.3.2 is affected. macOS before 10.12.5 is affected. The issue involves the "iBooks" component. It allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context via a crafted app that uses symlinks.
CVE-2017-2390 1 Apple 4 Iphone Os, Mac Os X, Tvos and 1 more 2025-04-20 N/A
An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.3 is affected. macOS before 10.12.4 is affected. tvOS before 10.2 is affected. watchOS before 3.2 is affected. The issue involves symlink mishandling in the "libarchive" component. It allows local users to change arbitrary directory permissions via unspecified vectors.
CVE-2017-12258 1 Cisco 1 Unified Communications Manager 2025-04-20 N/A
A vulnerability in the web-based UI of Cisco Unified Communications Manager could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute a cross-frame scripting (XFS) attack. The vulnerability exists because the affected software does not provide sufficient protections for HTML inline frames (iframes). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by directing a user of the affected software to an attacker-controlled web page that contains a malicious HTML inline frame. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to conduct click-jacking or other types of client-side browser attacks. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCve60993.
CVE-2017-2916 1 Meetcircle 2 Circle With Disney, Circle With Disney Firmware 2025-04-20 8.8 High
An exploitable vulnerability exists in the /api/CONFIG/restore functionality of Circle with Disney running firmware 2.0.1. Specially crafted network packets can cause an arbitrary file to be overwritten. An attacker can send an HTTP request to trigger this vulnerability.
CVE-2015-8326 1 Iptables-parse Project 1 Iptables-parse Module 2025-04-20 N/A
The IPTables-Parse module before 1.6 for Perl allows local users to write to arbitrary files owned by the current user.
