Descriptions

Trusted Execution in IBM AIX 6.1 uses an incorrect pathname argument in a call to the trustchk_block_write function, which might allow local users to modify trusted files, related to missing checks in the TSD_FILES_LOCK policy for modifications performed via hard links, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-6680.

Trusted Execution en IBM AIX 6.1 utiliza un argumento de nombre de ruta incorrecto en una llamada a la función trustchk_block_write, lo que podría permitir a usuarios locales modificar archivos de confianza, relacionados con falta de comprobaciones en la política TSD_FILES_LOCK para modificaciones llevada a cabo mediante enlaces duros (hard links), un vector distinto a CVE-2007-6680.
