Descriptions

The svpn component of the F5 BIG-IP APM client prior to version 7.1.7 for Linux and Mac OS X runs as a privileged process and can allow an unprivileged user to assume super-user privileges on the local client host. A malicious local unprivileged user may gain knowledge of sensitive information, manipulate certain data, or disrupt service.

El componente svpn del cliente F5 BIG-IP APM en versiones anteriores a la 7.1.7 para Linux y Mac OS X se ejecuta como proceso privilegiado y puede permitir que un usuario sin privilegios asuma privilegios de superusuario en el host del cliente local. Un usuario local malicioso no privilegiado podría obtener conocimientos de información sensible, manipular ciertos datos o interrumpir el servicio.
