Descriptions

The privilege-dropping implementation in the (1) pam_env and (2) pam_mail modules in Linux-PAM (aka pam) 1.1.2 does not perform the required setfsgid and setgroups system calls, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information by leveraging unintended group permissions, as demonstrated by a symlink attack on the .pam_environment file in a user's home directory. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2010-3435.

La implementación de la escalada de privilegios en los módulos pam_env (1) y (2) pam_mail de Linux-PAM (también conocido como pam) v1.1.2 no realiza la setfsgid requiere y pide setgroups sistema, que podría permitir a usuarios locales obtener información sensible mediante el aprovechamiento de permisos de grupo no deseados, como lo demuestra un ataque de enlace simbólico en el archivo pam_environment en el directorio home del usuario. NOTA: esta vulnerabilidad existe debido a una solución incompleta para CVE-2010-3435.
