CVE-2018-13054

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-13054

An issue was discovered in Cinnamon 1.9.2 through 3.8.6. The cinnamon-settings-users.py GUI runs as root and allows configuration of (for example) other users' icon files in _on_face_browse_menuitem_activated and _on_face_menuitem_activated. These icon files are written to the respective user's $HOME/.face location. If an unprivileged user prepares a symlink pointing to an arbitrary location, then this location will be overwritten with the icon content. Se ha descubierto un problema en Cinnamon, desde la versión 1.9.2 hasta la 3.8.6. • https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1083067 https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/pull/7683 https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2018/07/msg00011.html • CWE-59: Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') •
