Descriptions
The guestfish command in libguestfs 1.20.12, 1.22.7, and earlier, when using the --remote or --listen option, does not properly check the ownership of /tmp/.guestfish-$UID/ when creating a temporary socket file in this directory, which allows local users to write to the socket and execute arbitrary commands by creating /tmp/.guestfish-$UID/ in advance.
El comando guestfish en libguestfs 1.20.12, 1.22.7 y anteriores versiones, cuando se usa la opción --remote o --listen, no comprueba adecuadamente la propiedad de /tmp/.guestfish-$UID/ al crear un archivo de socket temporal en este directorio, lo que permite a usuarios locales escribir en el socket y ejecutar comandos arbitrarios mediante la creación de /tmp/.guestfish-$UID/ por adelantado.
