openvas-scanner before 2011-09-11 creates a temporary file insecurely when generating OVAL system characteristics document with the ovaldi integrated tool enabled. A local attacker could use this flaw to conduct symlink attacks to overwrite arbitrary files on the system.
CVE-2011-2924 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Linuxfoundation 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Foomatic-filters 2024-11-21 3.3 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
foomatic-rip filter v4.0.12 and prior used insecurely creates temporary files for storage of PostScript data by rendering the data when the debug mode was enabled. This flaw may be exploited by a local attacker to conduct symlink attacks by overwriting arbitrary files accessible with the privileges of the user running the foomatic-rip universal print filter.
CVE-2011-2923 2 Debian, Linuxfoundation 2 Debian Linux, Foomatic-filters 2024-11-21 3.3 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
foomatic-rip filter, all versions, used insecurely creates temporary files for storage of PostScript data by rendering the data when the debug mode was enabled. This flaw may be exploited by a local attacker to conduct symlink attacks by overwriting arbitrary files accessible with the privileges of the user running the foomatic-rip universal print filter.
