Descriptions
Apport 2.13 through 2.20.7 does not properly handle crashes originating from a PID namespace allowing local users to create certain files as root which an attacker could leverage to perform a denial of service via resource exhaustion or possibly gain root privileges, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-14179.
Apport 2.13 hasta la versión 2.20.7 no gestiona adecuadamente los cierres inesperados provenientes de un espacio de nombre PID, lo que permite que los usuarios locales creen ciertos archivos como root. Un atacante podría aprovechar estos archivos para realizar una denegación de servicio (DoS) mediante el agotamiento de recursos o, posiblemente, obtener privilegios root. Esta vulnerabilidad es diferente de CVE-2017-14179.
