Descriptions
ld.so in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.13 and earlier expands the $ORIGIN dynamic string token when RPATH is composed entirely of this token, which might allow local users to gain privileges by creating a hard link in an arbitrary directory to a (1) setuid or (2) setgid program with this RPATH value, and then executing the program with a crafted value for the LD_PRELOAD environment variable, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-3847 and CVE-2011-0536. NOTE: it is not expected that any standard operating-system distribution would ship an applicable setuid or setgid program.
ld.so en la librería C GNU (también conocida como glibc o libc6) v2.13 y anteriores expande la cadena dinámica $ORIGEN cuando $RPATH esta compuesta de este token, lo que podría permitir a usuarios locales obtener privilegios mediante la creación de un enlace duro en un directorio arbitrario para (1) setuid o (2) un programa setgid con este valor RPATH,y ejecutar el programa con el valor manipulado para la variable de entorno LD_PRELOAD, una vulnerabilidad diferente de CVE-2010-3847 y CVE-2011-0536. NOTA: no se espera que cualquier tipo de distribución envie un programa setuid o setgid aplicable.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in GNU C Library, the worst of which allowing arbitrary code execution and privilege escalation. Versions less than 2.15-r3 are affected.
