Descriptions

The jail rc.d script in FreeBSD 5.3 up to 6.2 does not verify pathnames when writing to /var/log/console.log during a jail start-up, or when file systems are mounted or unmounted, which allows local root users to overwrite arbitrary files, or mount/unmount files, outside of the jail via a symlink attack.

El script de cárcel rc.d en FreeBSD 5.3 hasta to 6.2 no verifica nombres de ruta cuando escribe en /var/log/console.log durante un arranque de cárcel, o cuando ficheros del sistema están montados o desmontados, lo cual permite a atacantes remotos sobre-escribir ficheros de su elección, o montar y desmontar ficheros, fuera de la cárcel mediante un ataque de enlaces simbólicos
